Adversity is another way to measure the greatness of individuals. I never had a crisis that didn’t make me stronger. – Lou Holts

We measure success in a myriad of different ways. There are successes that are easy to quantify and celebrate. There are victories that are clear and accomplishments that are public. What makes us stronger are the obstacles we overcome and the crisis we manage.

It is easy to lead when things are going well. It takes a true leader to navigate mission critical events. When you lead a team through one of these times, when you learn and succeed, that is when your true greatness shines. Stay true to your values, stay clear in the expectations, and create the best outcome available to you.
