Running a household can be chaotic, but there’s something special within the chaos and steering the ship takes skill, patience, commitment and strength. Remember Dad is a VERB! A great father takes action and is present. He knows when to show compassion and when to lay down the law. He allows his kids to make mistakes and even in the midst of turmoil, he remains supportive, loyal and protective. Husbands listen more than they speak; but when they do it’s encouraging, insightful and caring. He’s protective, supportive and loves her beyond her flaws. He takes care of her, communicates despite his ego and NEVER stops the romance.

Leaders lead by example and often build more leaders. A leader has strong and impactful communication skills. A leader holds himself accountable at all times. He’s confident, passionate and knows what he brings to the table. He is resilient in the face of adversity and influences others because he isn’t afraid to delegate, pass the torch and let others be recognized for their efforts.
