By Bill Durkin
The causes and cure's for the challenges facing our Country have been intensely debated. Unfortunately, good leaders from all races, backgrounds and beliefs are still divided about what to do with our nation's past mistakes and how to create a better society for everyone in the future.
The negativity in our
World is creating too many conversations that focus on what's wrong and where we disagree. These interactions polarize good people, produce unhealthy stress, damage relationships, and diminish trust... during a time when we need everyone to be at their best.
“One for All & All for One” is best known as the motto of The Three Musketeers... "the three inseparables,” were committed to being kind to all people while they worked together to help others. They believed if one person was facing a challenge, then it was a problem for the whole community.

WHAT LEADERS ARE SAYING ABOUT BILL DURKIN
The workshop and follow-up sessions conducted by Bill Durkin for PricewaterhouseCoopers has added new dimensions to my leadership and enhanced my contributions to my work.
I’ve been able to extend myself to the teams that I lead, to elicit their participation, and to bring out the best in each of them.
Business is often a complex matter, and the heart of any business is people. I would highly recommend Bill Durkin, because he has such a positive impact on people’s ability to relate, communicate, and perform. He has developed a real ability to bring people together, which is instrumental for increasing productivity and effectiveness in all business.
