Hope in Action = Leadership
Dr. Robert Ross of the California Endowment addressed the SLC at lunch. He defined leadership as 'hope in action.' Our work, our mission and our future is dependent on our ability to move our aspiration into action that creates results. Period.
I read the other day that vision absent of implementation is a hallucination.
As Dr. Ross spoke today I thought of that simple idea. So often we get caught up in our process or our vision that we miss the key ingredient of action. United Way ought to have a bias towards action. We ought to be known for our unique ability to get things done at a community, regional, national and global level. We can take vision ---our hope --- and put it into action.
Earlier today we saw how communities have done just that ---- recognition for outstanding leadership ----awards given through UWA's knowledge cafe. If one wants to see leadership in our system, just visit the highlighted communities in the knowledge cafe. They each demonstrate a core competency for moving 'hope into action.'
Or as Dr. Ross would say, the ability to LEAD.

100127LSLZJ Optimists chi flat iron always picture themselves accomplishing their goals., Let us ghd hair straightener suggest to the person in crisis that he cease concentrating so upon the dangers involved and the difficultie?ghd iv hot pink styler and concentrate instead upon the opptunity---for there is always opportunity in crisis. Light troubles ghd iv styler speak; great troubles keep silent. Mishaps are like knives that either serve us or cut us as we grasp them by the handle or blade.No one ghd mk4 can degrade us except ourselves; that if we are worthy, no influence can defeat us, No pain , no palm; no thorns , no throne ; no gall, no glory; no cross, no crown.
