Good morning all!

Today we jump into the loyalty chapter of Doug Dickerson’s book, Leaders Without Borders.
Loyalty is such an important ingredient in all of our relationships, not just in business.
What does your loyalty, in all of your relationships, say about you?
Enjoy the excerpt below.

How loyalty is built, sustained, and implemented in your organization is critical.
Consider these approaches as you build loyalty among your team.

Loyalty is built through relationship.
Cathy writes, “The more we can foster the feeling that we are a group of people working together, depending on each other, and not just bound by a franchise agreement, the more likely we are to be loyal to each other.”
The issue of relationship extends beyond a contract that binds people together.
Remember the family does come first.
Making all the money in the world is a hollow victory if it comes at the expense of losing your family.
Loyalty to your family precedes loyalty to your organization.

Loyalty is built through trust.
Every successful organization has it.
Without trust, it is impossible to succeed.
Sadly what we find in many organizations is a demand for loyalty that is expected to flow from the bottom up.
A successful organization is built on mutual respect and trust.
Trust evolves from relationships.

Loyalty is principle driven.
Loyalty is built through relationships and trust and are driven by core principles.
Loyalty is a true measure of your leadership, and your impact is defined by it.
