Great to be a part of the community and I look forward to learning from such a dynamic group from around the world. I operated a Chick-fil-A for 25 years and now work in consulting and ministry.

Hey Leaders, Over the past 10 weeks, we’ve taken a deep dive into Everyone Communicates, Few Connect by John C. Maxwell—and one powerful truth stands above the rest: 👉 Connection is the difference-maker in leadership. We’ve explored what it truly means to move beyond just communicating… and start connecting. We learned that great leaders: - Find common ground before seeking agreement - Keep communication clear and simple - Capture interest and attention - Inspire belief in others - Live what they say - Take time to know their audience - Believe in people before they believe in themselves - Build trust through consistency - Lead with authenticity - And most importantly… put others first This isn’t just about becoming better communicators—it’s about becoming better leaders. At Axis Leadership, we believe when leaders intentionally connect, they unlock potential, strengthen culture, and elevate everyone around them. Because when you build better people…you build a Better World. Final Reflection: Which principle from this series impacted you the most—and how will you apply it moving forward? Drop your biggest takeaway below Let’s keep growing, connecting, and leading with purpose. - Dr. Joe

Hey Leaders, Have you ever said, “I’ve always wanted to do that…” — but never actually did it? In this week's powerful TED Talk Tuesday, Matt Cutts challenges us with a simple but life-changing idea: Try something new for 30 days. Try Something New for 30 Days | Matt Cutts Here’s what stands out: The next 30 days are going to pass whether you take action or not… so why not use that time to grow? Cutts reminds us that transformation doesn’t require massive, overwhelming change. In fact, small, consistent actions are what create lasting impact. At Axis Leadership, we believe growth starts with intentional decisions—daily disciplines that shape who you become. Want to become a better leader? Start with one new habit for the next 30 days: - Read 10 minutes a day - Practice active listening - Speak life into your team - Reflect before you react Leadership isn’t built in a moment… it’s built in consistent moments. So here’s my question for you: What will you commit to for the next 30 days? Remember—Better People, Better World. - Dr. Joe
