IT’S LONELY AT THE TOP
Anybody
can
run
General
Motors.
You
have
vice
presidents
and
assistants
galore
to
help
you
with
anything
you
need.
But
owning
and
running
a
small
business
requires
real
talent.
You
have
to
be
an
expert
in
everything.
You
are
your
own
VP,
your
own
assistant.
You
have
no-one
to
talk
to.
It
gets
very
lonely.
We
can
help.
We
listen.
We
have
probably
experienced
the
issues
you
face.
But
we
don’t
do
it
all
on
our
own;
we
can
steer
you
to
appropriate
programs
at
Accelerate
Okanagan
or
invite
you
to
join
a
peer
group
of
non-competing
business
people
through
TEC.
Whatever
we
can
offer, we’ll certainly make it less lonely for you.
MANY HEADS BEAT ONE
Two
of
us
at
Excalibur
Leadership
Group
can
give
you
a
great
deal
of
assistance.
We
built
and
ran
a
$30M-a-year
system
development
company
with
no
outside
investors,
and
we
built
and
ran
a
multi-
million
dollar
business
services
company,
also
with
no
outside
investors.
So
whatever
business
you
are
in,
we
probably
have
some
expertise.
But
even
if
we
don’t,
we
are
backed
by
many
more
resources,
in
particular
those
of
TEC
Canada,
a
member
company
of
Vistage
International,
the
world’s
largest
mentoring
and
leadership
training
company.
DON’T MAKE OUR MISTAKES
You
can’t
build
and
run
two
multi-million
dollar
companies
without
making
some
good
decisions,
but
also
some
pretty
dumb
mistakes
along
the
way.
We
have
probably
already
made
the
same
mistakes
you’re
thinking
of
making.
Don’t
do
it!
There
is
no
reason
why
you
can’t
learn
from
our
mistakes,
or
the
mistakes
(and
wisdom)
of
other
members
of
your
peer
group.
Some
mistakes
you
have
to
make
for
yourself,
but
not
the
company-
killing kind. Leave that to your competitors.

Arthur:
Which is the greatest quality of knighthood? Courage? Compassion?
Loyalty? Humility? What do you say, Merlin?
Merlin:
Hmm? Ah, the greatest. They blend, like the metals we mix to make a
good sword.
Arthur:
No poetry. Just a straight answer. Which is it?
Merlin:
All right, then. Truth. That's it. Yes. It must be truth above all. When
a man lies, he murders some god of the world. You should know that.
