As America's corporations continue to reinvent themselves, leaders face defining moments. Many are incumbents waiting for retirement. Others are new in their leadership capacity and seek to make an immediate difference, while there are those that would rather observe and play it safe. How leaders handle their defining moments will define the future of their organizations and new opportunities for their colleagues. It defines their legacy.
Executive presence is not about selling a business transaction, or showcasing your knowledge, capabilities and skill-sets. Executive presence is one’s ability to create a moment; an experience that ignites others to want to know more about you, your personal brand and your business. Executive presence is mastered over time. It requires self-trust, confidence, self awareness and the ability to navigate the needs of people.
Leadership in America should be about holding everyone accountable to the highest standard of community and commerce. It should represent a voice that is diverse in its spirit, attitude and ownership. A voice that inspires us all to take action for the betterment of a healthier whole; where we can all stand for something that makes us feel that we have each other’s back and that we are pulling for one another’s advancement.
In today’s post 2008 economy, we must embrace this mindset, this immigrant mentality that knows that no earthly treasure equals the power of just one great opportunity.The immigrant trusts that great opportunities are all around him, in both obvious and not-so-obvious places. Through keen observation he is always searching for these valuable treasures. In today’s fiercely competitive global market, we must begin to think more like the immigrant
When we speak of purpose, we first think of ourselves. This is natural, and it’s not wrong. Perhaps one might say we are survivors by nature and thrivers by nurture.

Every great purpose grows beyond the individual – and the organization.
Your success in the workplace is inextricably linked to your collaborations with other people. You must therefore know who will help and who will hinder your relevancy and sustainability in the workplace. There are four primary types of people (characters) you must always identify: Leaders, Loafers, Leeches and Lifters.
As business leader, I have learned one thing above all about adverse circumstances. It is a certainty that those who venture more, risk more adversity. Finding good fortune in your work is often peppered with risk. Risk is always the gap between opportunity and success. You must therefore make risk your new friend.
In the world of business, we recognize those who sell well, but we respect and remember those who give well. There’s nothing wrong with recognition. It helps to advance a career, company, or cause. The worker must ensure that his boss sees his success. The company must ensure that its consumers see the effect of its product or service. The nonprofit must make its needs known. But smart people don’t seek recognition alone. In fact, they don’t seek it primarily. Those that lead with the immigrant’s perspective understand that respect is more lasting than recognition.
