If you look over to the left you'll see I have an ad for Keys To Leadership, a series of live presentations I gave some years ago. On the first CD, I told the story of a friend of mine who went into business, was doing well, then had a major fail that should never have happened. There was more than one reason it failed, and I highlighted that, along with giving a leadership lesson at the end of it.

That was then, this is now. I haven't given that presentation in awhile, and I'm not giving the entire presentation in the video below. What I am doing is sharing this one story, and then adding a couple more leadership lessons that should have been gleaned from it.

I'm doing this for three reasons.

One, because I'd like to help highlight why the Keys To Leadership series might be something you're looking for.

Two, because over the years I've realized that one can learn more than one lesson from an event. Back when I put this presentation together I only wanted to cover one lesson per story, and if I were doing this live again I'd still go that route. But since I'm putting this video with this post, I can expand on it a bit.

And three, because I want to highlight my new video channel, which most people seem to be missing because I had been putting all videos on the same channel, which still exists, but I have the new channel which will be for videos specifically associated with this blog and website. So far all the videos there are health care related; it was time for something new. 🙂

I hope you enjoy the video, and I hope you have some discussion points to make here after you've seen it.
