Material things are important but helping to grow someone’s values is an even greater responsibility. It’s a responsibility not just to that person but to society too.

Whatever core beliefs and values you instill or foster in someone will be with that person forever. Therefore, those values and beliefs will affect so many other people – way beyond your reach.

Take some time to look at how you are running your life. What is important to you? How important are the people who work for and with you? How are you interacting with them? What are you offering them? What are your goals for them? In What direction do you want to see them grow?

Ask these and many more questions to determine where your focus is. Fix what needs to be fixed and grow as you want your colleagues and employees to grow.
