To:\u00a0 The Great Leaders Who Have a Passion for Continuous Learning.<\/p>\n

In his recent blog post, The Secret to Expanding Influence by Wooing Hearts<\/em>, Dan Rockwell shares his interview with Kip Tindell, CEO of The Container Store\u00ae.\u00a0 Rockwell asked Tindell:\u00a0 \u201cWhat do you like to tell young leaders?\u201d Tindell responded:\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cI like the wake thing. W-A-K-E like a boat\u2019s wake. \u2026 Everything you do and everything you don\u2019t do impacts the people around you \u2026 far, far, far more than you think it does. And isn\u2019t that great?\u2026 Your wake is so powerful\u2026 That is so hopeful to me.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What an awesome metaphor that powerfully demonstrates the rippling impact great leaders have on their business, family, community and those whom they serve! As St. Thomas Aquinas, Dominican theologian and philosopher, wrote: \u201cIf the highest aim of a captain were to preserve his ship, he would keep it in port forever.\u201d\u00a0 May you always sail life\u2019s beautiful and magnificent seas leaving your extraordinary wake on many shores.\u00a0 As Rockwell reminds great leaders: \u201cDon\u2019t worry about the size of your boat. Worry about the wake you leave behind.\u201d Whether it be a small ripple or one the size of a large wave, it will have its fantastic impact.<\/p>\n
