This is the new Growing Forward page! Doug Peters and I are now partners in helping people in all walks of life Grow Forward!

Doug & Jon share a tremendous passion for leadership, & more importantly, a deep desire to add value to others by empowering and equipping them as leaders.

Here is my John Maxwell Team Member website. Very thankful for this opportunity to learn and grow and serve others!

Leadership is the difference maker and the deal breaker. It’s how we grow organizations. It’s how we impact lives. But, as you also know, leadership cannot be an idea we simply talk about; leadership is the action we must live out.

Impossible is just a glass roof set upon concrete walls lived in by security-seeking, fear-filled people who find it easier to stay in the "house" someone else built than to explore the power God can give them to bust loose to new heights. Impossible is not a fact, it is an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration, it is a dare. Impossible is nothing. (Jon's requote of an Adidas ad based on the life of Jesus)

Well, I am now a ceritified John Maxwell Team speaker, trainer, and coach. Lots of ideas going through my head. Journey is just beginning. I decided to join the mentorship program and hope to come back to Florida next August for a "think tank" and further training.

The growth zone ONLY happens when you go where you are uncomfortable...so, get comfortble being uncomfortable! If you do you will grow forward and soar!

US Navy Admiral Vern Clark had 4 books he recommended every Naval officer read. One of the four was John C. Maxwell's "21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership." I am blessed to have 12 years of learning from and leading training sessions on this book. I am now offering this class to the FM business community.

I'm speaking at the Rough Rider Kiwanis meeting on Monday. Planning on giving attendees a few things to think about: What is your growth plan? For those who are in management/ownership roles, what are you doing to add value to your employees?
