“Make it part of your leadership every day to say, ‘thank you!’ with real true sincerity, or let people on your team know that you appreciate them by saying, ‘You are important to me and this organization!’ This is one of the easiest things leaders can do. It creates a positive culture and strengthens the bond between leaders and team members. It will motivate and empower everyone in the organization. Stop for a minute today and say, ‘I value you or I appreciate you!’ It costs you nothing, yet it's so powerful!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
