"If your strategy fails, you pivot to a Backup Plan—but when your people are struggling, are you treating them like a priority or just another contingency?”👇 “Great leaders go into every mission with a backup plan, but never for the mission-critical people they’re serving and growing. Your best laid plans can have a contingency, but leading and taking care of your people is always a priority, not a backup plan!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs, CEO, Victory for Veterans, Inc (VFV) #Leadership #BackupPlan #PeopleFirst #ServantLeadership #ContingencyPlanning #Strategy #EmployeeEngagement #WorkplaceCulture #Management #VeteranLeader #MilitaryLeadership #BusinessContinuity #LeadByExample #RiskManagement #MissionFirstPeopleAlways #Motivation #Success #LeadershipDevelopment #GrowthMindset #TeamFirst
