Matt Paknis Leadership Development

The root cause of workplace bullying is driven by a bully's greatest fear; being exposed as an incompetent fraud.  Talented employees trigger this fear. "The greatest leader is not necessarily the one who does the greatest things. They are the one that gets the people to do the greatest things." – Ronald Reagan" "None of us, alone, does great things. All of us, together, can do great things." – Mother Teresa #elevate #talent #greatness #others #together #leadersarentbullies #healthyworkplaces #leaderselevatethoughtandconduct #inspire #psychologicalsafetyatworkact #uplift

 

"Judge shopping is where litigants exploit quirks in the structure of the federal judiciary to hand-pick judges who are sympathetic to their ideological goals... [It] involves strategic filing in courts with few available judges." — The Brennan Center for Justice "When public men deny others a fair trial then our democratic society is outraged, and democracy is baffled." - J. William Fulbright #FairTrial #justice #liberty #truth #honor #dignity #leadersarentbullies #healthyworkplaces #leaderselevatethoughtandconduct #democracy #psychologicalsafetyatworkact #NeverGiveUp

“People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care.” - Theodore Roosevelt "Only a tiny percentage of surivors choose to abuse, yet almost all perps and predators were abused.  Hurting others is ultimately a choice." A person’s capacity to be aware of others’ feelings and the ability to manage these feelings, allow people with emotional intelligence to manage healthy relationships. Bullies don’t care about others’ feelings. Bullying bosses, like pedophiles and psychopaths, lack empathy. #LeadersArentBullies

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same." - Ronald Reagan "If freedom of speech is taken away, then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter." - George Washington #freedom #FreeSpeech #FairTrial #democracy #leadersarentbullies #healthyworkplaces #leaderselevatethoughtandconduct #liberty #psycholigicalsafetyatworkact #speakout

"All cruelty springs from weakness." — Seneca "The malignant egoist is like the dyer's hand, subdued to what it works in." — William Shakespeare "A wolf is no less a wolf because he's dressed up in a sheepskin." — Aesop "Falsehood is easy, truth is so hard." — Henry David Thoreau #truth #transparency #character #integrity #leadersarentbullies #HealthyWorkplaces #leaderselevatethoughtandconduct #respect #psychologicalsafetyatworkact #authenticity
