Dedication cascading down from the top

"MOURNERS wept as they paid their last respects on Saturday at the wake of former Philippine president Corazon Aquino, the beloved democracy icon who swept away a dictator and inspired non-violent resistance to autocratic rule. Mrs Aquino, 76, died early on Saturday in a Manila hospital after a year-long battle with colon cancer" reported the Straits Times

Mrs Aquino led the "People Power" revolt in the Philippines. The uprising she led in 1986 brought down Marcos' repressive 20-year regime and served as an inspiration to non-violent resistance across the globe, including those that ended communist rule in eastern Europe.

To win, the team must somehow get the feeling that there is dedication coming from the top.

Good sales leaders must be enthusiastic and proactive, all the time communicating, communicating and communicating. I am always out and about, soliciting ideas, speaking to people's concerns.
