The experience and perspective he brings to today's conversation are invaluable. Dr. Scott provides priceless wisdom that you are sure to grow from. He discusses the true nature of success, defining it in terms of communities and people’s lives and measuring it based on ‘giving’ rather than ‘getting’. He discusses the difference between a healthy ego and a toxic ego, and much more. Dr. Scott recently wrote a short essay on the topic, entitled "What is Success?", based on a speech he gave at a Long Island award ceremony. Dr. Scott defines 3 main principles of success: Talent – These are the gifts we’re born with. Dr. Scott asks, how will you use your unique talents to be truly successful in life? Time – This is the aspect that treats every person equally. How do you spend your time? If you sacrifice time with family for more work, will it truly lead to a successful, meaningful life? Treasure – These are the things we acquire in life, both material and immaterial, given and earned. But their value doesn’t lie in possessing them, it lies in how we use them to make a difference in the world. “It’s not about 'getting' – money, status, power – it’s about giving one’s talent, time, and treasure.” —Dr. Bob Scott Have Questions?

Patzetta Trice recounts a childhood fueled by the leadership and sage advice her father shared with his daughters to include the values of "Faith, Family and Community". Living these values became her personal mission informing the professional and civic outcomes that led to the receipt of local, national and global awards. She shares her personal perspective on "success" as being that of "what she could help facilitate for other"s as she climbed the corporate ladder at GM; often "embraced", but acknowledging those marked instances of gender and racial bias. Never one to quit, she prevailed, and in the end, leveraged her top corporate positions to provide funding to notable local efforts to raise up the youth, in general, and girls and women, in particular. She shares her greatest triumph as being asked by three successive governors, representing both major political parties, to serve as co-chair of the Indiana Commission for Women, where she came in touch with girls and women in both urban and rural communities and was able to help frame and push-out state administrative and legislative initiatives to increase and improve public policies to the benefit of women and girls across 92 counties.

This week's Leadership Tidbits with Coach Tee Wilson features special guest, Senator Eddie Melton. Eddie Melton was elected as State Senator for Indiana’s 3rd District on November 8, 2016. In addition to serving in the Indiana General Assembly, Melton serves as the manager of Corporate Citizen and Community Relations for Northern Indiana Public Service Company (NIPSCO). Prior to joining NIPSCO, Melton worked as a grant officer for the Legacy Foundation, Lake County’s community foundation in Northwest Indiana. Melton has served as chairman of the Indiana Commission on the Social Status of Black Males, served on the State Board of Education,national board member for the American Association of Blacks in Energy (AABE), and represented the First Congressional District of Indiana. In addition, Melton has been recognized as a national leader in the area of youth mentoring. Since 2005, he has been instrumental in establishing and training mentoring organizations around the country. In 2015, Melton worked with President Barack Obama's Administration in implementing "My Brother's Keeper," the initiative designed to address persistent opportunity gaps facing boys and young men of color. Besides working with a former president, Melton has been recognized with multiple awards and accolades, such as; Top “20 Under 40” young professionals in Northwest Indiana by The NWI Times Media Company (2010), South Shore Leadership Award winner (2012), and Freshman Legislator of the Year by the Indiana Association of Rehabilitation Facilities. Melton was recently elected by lawmakers from around the country to serve on the Executive Committee of the National Conference of State Legislators. He is a member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. and received a B.S. of Organizational Management from Calumet College of St. Joseph.In many recent episodes the guests have all mentioned the importance of a mentor. Senator Melton did as well, but he also offered a new piece of advice to the listening audience. He stated, “I always tell folks, pay attention to what you do, what you say, because you never know who was watching. You don't know who you're mentoring from a distance.” For those of you who are interested in getting into politics but are struggling to figure out how to get involved, Senator Melton had some advice for you as well. “I would encourage them just to be in tune with what the people in their community, city, and state really want and need and listen. Being a good public servant is someone that's able to listen to the issues from a broad diverse viewpoint and represent an wide array of individuals. You have to be able to bring those issues to the table and work with other stakeholders whether it is grass root organizers, educators, state leaders, local leaders, etc to formulate solutions.” Overall, here are some leadership tidbits to remember from the game changer that is Senator Melton: Always be willing to ask questions of yourself and of others, be open to growth especially if you're going to run or be in the political landscape, as a leader you have to be able to accept criticism and have tough skin, have the heart to serve, make sure you study and research the issues and concerns that are happening in your community so that you are better informed and can be better engaged, and make sure you vote!Listen to the full episode to hear more of Senator Eddie Melton’s thoughts!!
