“ If you want a strong future: Becoming secure with insecurity is the best security you can have. ”
Reliance in its most basic, daily, form is being part of a group that lives by a pact: To always have each other’s backs — no matter what — so that everyone comes out future strong.
~ Bill Jensen
Reliance in its purest, highest, form is a code to live by: That every life matters. Every future matters. Taking care of each other matters. And our shared purpose is to create amazing futures for our children’s children.
Reliance is the ultimate measure of a team’s or organization’s culture. It’s not 'Would I recommend a friend to work here?' It’s 'Would this group of people put their ass on the line for me?' And 'Would I do the same for them?
If you want to lead others into a strong future: You need to be keenly aware of how your own inner truths — biases, fears, courage, values and dreams — do or do not impact the daily work of others.
