Hannah introduced our speaker – Dr. Jim Salvucci.
Jim is the founder and President of Guidance for Greatness. Following a long career in higher education as an English Professor. In 2020 he founded his business to “help good people become great”. One of his goals is to answer the question of what makes a good boss.
He talked about the four C’s to be a great leader:
  • Character- integrity counts

  • Compromise – flexibility
  • Collaboration –working together to achieve objectives
  •                                           .
Thank you Jim for a worthwhile and interesting presentation. The many comments and questions asked attest to the interest of the members.
