Principles for Success
Principles for Success is derived from Lodestar Guidance: Principles to Live and Lead, a program developed by our very own President and CEO Paul Weaver. Paul is committed to the value of leadership and the importance of developing tomorrow’s leaders.
We are excited to bring this program to you as we introduce new character traits throughout the year. Sit back, relax, read, watch, learn and share your own personal stories by hashtagging the trait and using #morethanthebanner. We like to call it a win-win-win…you learn about leadership, we learn about your experiences, and showmen everywhere can learn from each other! Click through to learn about the character traits below then stay tuned as we add more!

Diligence
Diligence means always giving your best effort to complete a task. When you practice diligence, you spend your time and effort in a willing, consistent manner to successfully set and accomplish your goals.
