Goodbye Sir

Filed under: Big Ideal

What do you do when a leader leaves? When a mentor moves on? When a reason for signing up is not reason enough for staying on?

Today I said goodbye to someone who has been an example to me of leadership, humility and wisdom more than anyone I have had the privilege of working with in a long while. His discipline, courage and genius caused me to jump on board and help build a vision.

I've been working for him for the past two years. He was a quiet man. A shy guy. One of those people you know are thinking all of the time. We were not close friends but there was something about being around him that pushed me further and challenged me a lot.

And because proximity often determines proclivity for any more potential "bond," I don't see anything else beyond what the last two years have given.

He will be missed.
