Tony Dungy On Leadership

In his book, The Mentor Leader, Tony Dungy writes an excellent description of how he seeks to lead his team.  Tony Dungy was the head coach of the 2007 Super Bowl champs - the Indianapolis Colts.

"As a mentor and a leader, I have found that I cannot move the ball forward with positive, nurturing leadership until I engage with those I am blessed to lead.  Once I've engaged with them, I am able to educate and equip.  Throughout the process, it is essential to encourage, empower, and energize in order to finally elevate the people around me" (Tony Dungy, The Mentor Leader, page 166).  Tony goes on to explain these "e" words in the following pages of the book if you are interested in reading more.
