Are you the kind of leader who empowers your team to show up for the community when it matters most?
I’ve been sharing Tuesday Tornado Tips for the past six weeks on my Youtube channel but this story might be my favorite.
Just 48 hours after a tornado destroyed my house back in 2020, my wife and I walked into an Irish restaurant completely exhausted. One of the waiters noticed immediately. Without hesitation, he stepped in—brought us Irish coffees, covered our meal, and even handed us a $30 gift card.
He didn’t ask for permission. He didn’t wait. He was empowered to act.
That moment stuck with me.
So here’s the challenge:
If that same situation happened in your business… would your employees feel empowered to do the same?
Because generosity isn’t just a value we talk about—it’s a culture we create.
Watch this week’s Tuesday Tornado Tips to hear the full story and why it matters more than ever.
