Servant
Leader In the first half of our life we pursue success.
We work hard, sacrifice, and expend energy to become financially successful. In the second half,
we focus on significance, giving our experience, time, talent, and energy toward making a difference in people’s lives.
From the book
Halftime: Changing Your Game Plan from Success to Significance by Bob Buford
For most of my adult life I served
in the armed forces as a servant leader and pursued success through hard work and sacrifice – I learned how to keep
the important things important and balance out the things that appeared important on the surface but in reality have little
impact on the big picture. My priorities were and still are God, family and serving my country only now
I want to focus on serving my country through making a difference in my community - the city of Madison. Being a visionary, being a good communicator, having good listening skills and
motivating people are all keys to success of a servant leader. I possess these skills and will put them
to work as City Councilman for District 7.
