Well, thank you, mark. And my definition is stated earlier between a boss and a leader. You know, when you look at a leader in the company, someone who is really motivating the associates and their department is performing over and above. And great things are happening in their area of the company. It's usually because of the confidence of the leader - is because he inspires people to be better than they are. He or she inspires people to be better than they are. And he or she, empowers people to become all they can become.

It's just so important if you ever get yourself in a situation where you're given authority in the company to be a leader. To be one that inspires people, remember where you came from.

And, one of my key things here is just being a confident person. Knowing that you have the skillset that puts you in the position that you're in. So treat the people like you wanted to be treated when you were in their position. And so I'm going to discuss later on here in the podcast, the differences between the boss and the leader. But it's pure confidence. Man, when you're working for someone who's confident, who's in a position of authority, and who motivates all the associates to be the best they can be. You're going to look for your productivity to be off the chain good.

So I'm very excited about, discussing what I feel with you Mark, as the differences between a boss and a leader. But again, there's nothing worse than working in a situation where you have a honorous boss, who, really doesn't realize the importance of the authority vested in him or her by the company. And it just kills productivity in most cases. And man, you want to work for a leader. And if you're listening to this, you want to be a leader. If you're put in a position of authority, you want to be a leader. You want to be that inspiring force that makes people want to get up and come to work every day. 

I want to tell you what I see as a solution in a situation like this to becoming a great effective leader and actually a servant leader - when you see a leader who is confident. They encourage the associates as I said earlier - to collaborate with them, to work closely with them, and to do it as a team instead of just doing it for the boss. 

When an effective leader gets buy-in from the people that he's leading, man, it's magical. So the next thing that I want to talk about is the leader shares the experience that they've had in the workplace to help those who are working under their charge become more effective. 

And when you think about it, when you're in a workplace where you're free to give your feedback, where you're free to save what you feel and what you mean without consequence. Man, that's a great place to work. But when the boss is Lord overall and you're afraid to give your opinion, it really holds back the company.

The third thing, as a leader, you just remain humble. Give the credit - as I said earlier. Give the credit to the team. You're in a position of authority as a leader because you were put there by your hard work and effort and not by happenstance because maybe God bless you and gave you a position of authority. And so when you're in that position, just remain humble and be willing to be confident enough to shine the light on the team. 

And then the other thing I would add to here is being an effective leader - A servant leader - allows people to give constructive feedback. You know, so many times feedback is squashed in a company or position. and I just like to encourage people to save what they feel and be open with it and get it out on the table. So everybody knows without any consequence.

And when you can put your team in that position where people are saying: "Gosh, I can't wait to go to work in the morning because I'm working in an environment where I can just be the best person I can be. I can be my best me." And as a servant leader, you want to serve the people and help them become the best that they can become. And my feeling my quote is when I'm training leadership in a company or one of my companies to take on the task and develop teams is - number one - I want them to know this: 

Let me give an example of those - When all my transportation company, we had 2000 drivers - 2000 drivers. And, you know, our turnover was minimal because we led them in such a way. We treated them in such a way that they never wanted to leave my company to go somewhere else, and we paid them better. And you know what? When you analyze what I'm talking about right now, training someone, there's a great expense in training someone. And so you don't want to lose that person after you train them, because that's all that money that's gone into training that person - You've lost that. So why not create an environment that people never want to leave you. And why not create the environment that you pay them so well, they don't even think about leaving you. And that's what I've done over and over. And that's why I've had success in my businesses is because I treat people like I want to be treated.
