Navigating the Integrity Minefield

Posted in Faith and Work, Honesty, Integrity, Judgment, Leadership, Seven Pillars of Faith and Work, tagged , , , , , , , , , on October 26, 2011 | Leave a Comment »

Ethics training often comes to us as hypothetical scenarios that barely resemble anything we see as “regular” workers, and hardly provides a map to navigate the hazards challenging our integrity at work.  Most of us will never experience an Enron scandal, or a Madoff ponzi scheme at work.  People familiar with these matters must have [...]

60 Days…Speak Up!

Friends, Often times I have felt at a loss for words.  A situation presents itself and it feels like I should say something, but I don’t  because I am scared that I will not say the right thing.   Good intentions and all, but the word of encouragement or the word of thankfulness does not ever [...]

60 Days….It’s All YOUR Fault!

Posted in 60 Days of Prayer, Confrontation, Encouragement, Honesty, Judgment, Prayer, Relationships on November 23, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

Yesterday I was thinking about “The Blame Game” again. In a rare moment of insight, it struck me that I also have many people to “blame” for what I have accomplished in life.  Think about it.  We tend to only think of blame in the negative context, but I turned it around and began to [...]

60 Days…Even the Small Stuff?

Posted in 60 Days of Prayer, Encouragement, Honesty, Humble, Prayer on November 18, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

Good Morning, Do you realize that we have an intercessor that is constantly petitioning God on our behalf? When you pray for the big meeting or the major project that is behind schedule, or for the wisdom to know how to respond to a co-worker who has just experienced an unexpected setback, be encouraged that [...]

Daniel Leadership

I have been blessed to build a friendship over the past few years with a business leader who “gets it” about as well as any I know. Donnie Smith, new CEO of Tyson Foods (located here in northwest Arkansas), has worked at Tyson Foods for 30 years. On Tuesday, the Wall Street Journal published a feature interview [...]

Day 25–Communication Breakdown

Posted in 31 Days of Proverbs and Prayer, Honesty on July 24, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

Trustworthy messengers refresh like snow in summer.  They revive the spirit of their employer.  Proverbs 25:13 (NLT) The NIV speaks of the “coolness of snow at harvest time” which makes a little more sense to me than the “snow in summer.”  But I digress…. Everyone has played the game where one message is communicated and [...]

Day 12–Liar, Liar

Posted in 31 Days of Proverbs and Prayer, Honesty, Words on July 11, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

Truthful words stand the test of time, but lies are soon exposed.  Proverbs 12: 19 (NLT) The Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in those who tell the truth. Proverbs 12:22 (NLT) As I am going through Proverbs, I am finding verses that are really not very hard to memorize and am trying to [...]
