The biggest force in executive hiring right now isn't turnover. It's retirement.
Memorial Day invites us to pause and remember, not just the holiday, but the service and sacrifice of others.
When we think about those who have served and given their lives, we’re reflecting on a level of dedication that went far beyond obligation, a commitment to something bigger than themselves. It guided their choices, regardless of the potential for recognition, individual gain or devastating personal loss. At its core, this day gives us an opportunity to reflect on what we can learn from those who have shown us the very best of what it means to truly place the good of all above the benefit to self.
Leadership is often framed as something built through education, experience, or opportunity. But for many influential figures, its earliest foundations come from something far more personal: the values, expectations, and quiet examples set by their mothers. These mothers did not simply offer advice, they shaped how their children understood learning, dignity, responsibility, and resilience. Long before titles or recognition, these leaders were being formed at home.
