What if you could lead people with a purpose on purpose? You can. Many people ask me about our current training programs: Leadership Intentionally and Success Intentionally. The questions usually sound something like this:
"Can you really lead or be successful by accident?"
"What does it mean to lead intentionally?"
The answer to the first question is YES and many do, which is the reason you will find one hit wonders and one time successes. Without knowing how to repeat the process, it is luck and timing that helps you succeed. Being intentional with a process that leads to success and successful leadership helps you to achieve your goals in both areas on purpose.
Leadership Intentionally is what we teach aspiring leaders or managers who wish to be leaders how to do. There are many factors involved, yet three of the most important ones include:
1. Desire
2. Skills
3. Practice
With a desire to lead, which we can help you pinpoint and even predict, one will work more diligently to develop the skills and practice them for habit forming behavior. Leadership Intentionally is your key to learning how to lead those you have the privilege of working with to greatness, instead of just goodness. More to come...

Young Impressions... on Future Leaders!
The below is an excerpt from an email I received last week. Isn't it amazing how what we learn in our efforts to become better leaders can rub off on the little ones we have so much influence over! Way to go Michelle!
"I just completed listening to your CD series on Contagious Leadership last night. I have been listening to it in my car and thought you’d get a kick out of the impact it made on my 7 year old daughter.My daughter listened intently to the section where you described that "employees don’t work for you they work for themselves", she took it to heart. Now when I pick her to bring her to the office instead of saying “are your workers still there?” she says “is your team still there?” It took her a few times but the most exciting part was she corrected herself, I didn’t mention it after she listened to it. She’s well on her way to being a great leader!"
Keep in mind how much you impact the lives of those around you. For you own copy of Contagious Leadership, go to whttp://www.monicawofford.com/Products.html.
