Thanks for this important message, Bret. Giving away respect to others is indeed a daily challenge–but vital–in a chaotic, stress-filled world, while not feeling entitled to anything back. Definitely something to think about. I’ll be interested to see what others think.

I have to agree with you, Paul, that remarkable leaders are rare. Because so many leaders are not respectful of others, just the simple act of being respectful gets one way down the road to being remarkable. Thanks for sharing! Bret

Well said. I have yet to meet/work with an effective leader who was not respectful of those who worked around her or him. I have worked with a lot of people who were not respectful, or worse yet, respectful in person, but disrespectful behind the back.

Level 5 leaders are rare.
