Leaders have to develop new and innovative ways to motivate their followers every day. But what motivates leaders? I started thinking about this question recently when my 8th grade son wasn’t motivated to get out of bed early one school morning to participate in one of his final basketball practices. Of course it wasn’t too hard for me to motivate him – ‘get up or there won’t be any XBox this weekend’ But why couldn’t he motivate himself to get up?

Two weeks ago I was tagged by Aaron Wolowiec and Elizabeth Engel to give my take on Maddie Grant ’s original post, a widely popular one. So where have I been? I’ve been thinking!

You would have to be living under a rock over the last few months if you hadn’t heard something about a professional football player named Tim Tebow. Tebow is the quarterback of the Denver Broncos.

With nearly 500 million users, Twitter is not something that membership bodies should ignore! It can be a great way to connect with members, prospective members and other stakeholders.
