PRODUCTIVE LEADERSHIP

What does it mean to be a productive leader?

We are influenced on a daily basis by those around us, especially by those in positions of leadership.

EXISTENCE

"Live life to its fullest" ... Is there all there is to life, purpose, and the existence of human beings? Buddha, Confucius, Aristotle -- all these and countless others tried to sum up the meaning of life, the purpose of life, and ultimately the reason for our existence in a sentence or two.

Authorities in Islamabad demolished 115 Christian homes in a slum area despite the courts' refusal to grant applications to do so. The demolition ...also destroyed makeshift homes that families had constructed after a first round of demolition. They are now left living in tents. https://twitter.com/EndBlasphemylws/status/1617096472012406785
