A Spectacular Encounter (Part 2)

The Art of Grateful Leadership

00:00 /

Here is an inspiring and moving story! It is one that was told to me at the fabulous dinner for MBA students hosted by Lehigh University Executive in Residence Shawn Kent Hyashi, in her warm and welcoming Pennsylvania home. The story is of an action so simple, and yet is one that truly changed the life of the person receiving it, Graduate Assistant Yijun Zou (Joy).

Wonderful story. It just goes to show you how each and everyone of us at any given moment has an influence in the world no matter if we don’t see it immediately. 🙂
