What a great question. What if we were to ask ourselves, every day, right before bed, "How well did I listen to others, especially those I love today?" It would be a good check in, wouldn't it? (Active listening is only a hair's breadth from love itself. But I like the term FIERCE LISTENING better. . sounds even more intentional and purposeful than ACTIVE listening.)

Tom, after nearly 30 years in distribution, I find myself thinking more about the people I've helped along the way. Watching someone grow from needing constant guidance to becoming the person others turn to for help is pretty rewarding. I suspect those are the memories I'll value most when I'm 72.

Joshie dude, I bet there are more Christian Democrats than Christiam Republicans. (It’s just that we Christian Dems don’t wear our faith on our T-shirts. ) Joshie, I’ve logged 68 years as a confirmed Presbyterian, 64 years as a registered Democrat.

If JA thinks Dems are not religious, he should immediately taken to a mental institution. Though I am not much of a church goer, I became a confirmed Presbyterian 68 years ago, and I have been a registered Democrat for 63 years.

Kay, I bet there are more Christian Democrats than Christian Republicans. It’s just that CDems don’t wear their beliefs on their T-shirts.

Agree, but I’m leaving ahead. Jayne or Joe Smith, age 58 or 78, looking back on their careers. I measure their careers by the people that they helped to grow, regardless of what the official circumstance was in any given organization at any given point in time.

Something that has to be remembered when dealing with, or managing, the shareholders' expectations.
It's a knife-edged tension that has to be managed fairly and mindfully

I’ll stick to my point. Relative to that boss, age 72, when he or she looks back on there work, it will be the people that they helped to grow, the people that they worked for regardless of the official circumstance.

This is aspirational and theoretical perhaps, Tom.
The boss in reality today works for either himself as the owner or the shareholders.
In some worker-cooperatives on the other hand, they collectively hire their managers and CEOs and can fire them too. So in practice the bosses do work for the employees in that case.
If I've misunderstood you please let me know. Thanks.
