Learning Leadership by Taking Risks and Setting Direction
By Kevin Bonfield, founder and managing partner at Concentre and a member of the Entrepreneurs’ Organization in Dallas, Texas.
I love the beach. Which is great for me, because my family loves the beach as well.
The beach provides an all-over experience for me, triggering all five senses. The sound of the waves rolling onto the sand, the birds flying and calling and the other people on the beach, including my children, giggling and screaming as they run around; the feel of the sun and the wind on my face and the sand as it moves under my feet and escapes through my toes; the smell and taste of the salt in the air. And, finally, the incredible view as the sun disappears over the horizon at sunset, lighting up the sky with dark blues, purples, yellows and oranges.
