Striving Towards Excellence

-Karthik Gurumurthy

Today is the Birthday of legendary Coach Wooden. I am reflecting what he shared.

• Being authentic and vulnerable is foundational to leadership. The only gift I have to offer the world is me and what I have within.
• It took me a while to recognize that I’m more than enough for what I want to accomplish. Once I stopped being ashamed of myself I could start being my best version every day than trying to copy some and end up being a bad duplicate.
• Each of us is a walking billboard, advertising ourself. Our words and actions are our real time commercial. How we represent ourselves is very important.

John Wooden’s dedication and commitment to excellence resulted in a an incredible framework to develop leaders.
