Super excited and humbled to be interviewed by Japanese reporters, all about Ohtani-san!
What started as a night to root for the Los Angeles Angels turned into a cool opportunity to answer questions about Shohei, I'm sure my shirt let them know I'm a fan!
The reporters threw questions at me with the speed and accuracy of Ohtani's pitches! One truly resonated with me, "What's one word I would use to describe Shohei?"
"Determination" I replied, I'm inspired by his determination to give it his all during every moment leading up to, during and after the game.
His level of determination to be fully present, doing whatever it takes for the win is amazing! And all while doing so from a place of humility to me is honorable and amazingly powerful.
Shohei's actions create a positive impact for his teammates, coaches, fans (even diehard fans of opposing teams), as well as local and global communities all cheering him on.
It hit me later, they're similar attributes to leaders I've worked for and am currently working with.
Leaders that:
~ Cultivate a positive and productive culture
~ Give it their all during every moment of their day
~ Care for their teams, customers and communities
~ Are focused and fully present, ensuring winning outcomes
~ Remain humble, remembering that their team is why
~ Recognize exceptional qualities of their team
Celebrating servant leaders, your determination:
~ Enhances your culture
~ Inspires your team
~ Transforms your business
