It helped me to see my strengths and weaknesses and also helped me realize that there were some things that needed to be changed in my life. Overall, I believe that I am a better leader as a result of my participation" ~~Jesse Sauskojus "Now I believe that the sky is the limit in what I choose to do. I regret that I didn't have PCLI about 30 years ago instead of at a time I would like to retire! The most useful thing I learned, and am continuing to learn, is how to be a great leader. It is a conscious effort just like making a successful marriage, and being a great leader is important in my job as well as in my family and organizations that I belong to." ~~Sherry Long |
