I have been a leader of people and have worked in the Safety, Loss Prevention, and Leadership spaces for over 25 years. I built many teams during that time and I have found that how well they execute two key fundamental skills will determine how successful (or not) they will be. These two skills are communication and accountability.

How well a team communicates and holds both themselves and each other accountable is CRITICAL to their success, yet so many teams continue to struggle in these areas. Why? The answer is that we have not made sure that these two fundamental skills have been well ingrained in our teams before attempting to execute any vision set before them or delegating tasks.

We can have the greatest vision in the world, but if teams don’t know how to communicate, it is never going to come to fruition. We can delegate tasks all day, but if we don’t know how to hold ourselves or others accountable, we are not going to accomplish much.

Think of it like this: you can't add the roof or the windows to a house before you first lay the foundation or put up the walls.

My passion is coaching people on these fundamental skills and building better teams. It’s why I founded Bricks & Mortar Leadership; to pass on these age-old, time-tested principles and proven philosophy of leadership and help build teams that inspired.
