When we talk about people like Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, LeBron James, you and I don't know them personally. So when we look at them, we see them based upon their talent, their skill, and how good they are with playing basketball. But when these gentlemen go home to their families, they're not looked at as being a talented basketball player. They're not looked at as being a person who have won championships in the NBA. They're looked at as a husband, as a father, as a sibling, as a friend, because there's so much more to them than what they do. There's so much more to you than what you do. And because there's so much more to you, oftentimes the true you people never really make a connection with. Just like on your job, the people who you oversee and you lead and you serve, they know you as the HR director. But if they only got a chance to know the true you, the whole you, they would know you as a wonderful individual. And I believe that that's what bringing out the best in you is about. And with that, my first slide. Before you can bring out the best in others, you must first bring out the best in you.

Thank you, Rico. With that, my first— and go home to their family, an opportunity to introduce to them.

As you are sized up by how well you perform, people fail to give you an opportunity to introduce to them the true you. The full you or the whole you. There's so much more that is within you. You're more than a person who is gifted and talented.

How good you are with figuring things out. There's so much more to you.
