You can ignite new passions and new levels of success, or you can sit still and watch the world pass you by. Leaders must choose to accept and adapt to change, lest their organizations fall behind, perhaps never to catch up. Gary inspires, challenges, and equips people with the tools they need to lead themselves and others through change, both at work and at home.
