Great Leaders....

Since this is my blog I can write about what I want. Today will be the first posting on here that is not related to poker but a worthy post nonetheless.

I am sure everyone has at some point either had a great leader or has lead a great team. Coach Jeff Fisher of the TN Titan's is a great leader. Taking rookies year after year and grooming them into being great professional football players. I am sure some poker players would say Doyle Brunson is a great leader, teaching so many how to play poker and be successful.

Why am I talking about all this? Well tomorrow I lose a great leader in my professional life. The CFO of our company has resigned from his position and will be moving on to bigger and better things. I wish him all the luck as I know he will reach every goal he sets before himself. He always had a way of bringing out the best in every person on his team. He has a way of empowering you to think outside the box and be creative. He always trusted your professional opinion and gave you the power and support to reach your own goals, professionally and personally. I have been with this company for six years, all of which this leader has been right there every step of the way. Not sure what next week will feel like without him, it's a scary time.

I am sure another great leader will step into this role but there will only be one great leader... Mr. Edward Morgan.

Best of luck Ed.

4 days until Vegas.

PEACE!
