"Childhood Memories" is a series of diorama and paintings that represent the essences of many African American children growing up during the 1950's and the 1960's. These paintings and dioramas depict the beautiful landscapes in Southern Maryland and the relationship people had with it. Pinkie Strother, the creator of the art and the story has worked on the art series over two decades. The traditions and the lifestyle during this period in the rural south are illustrated through a variety of media. The people who lived there are depicted in drawings, paintings, and dioramas. The figurines, representing people from the community, show the basic activities of the era and each figurine depicts an actual person from the artist experience. The exhibition shows a labor of love.

The foundation for quintessential leadership is building trust and being trustworthy. When teams, business units, organizations, and nations fail, a root cause is a lack of trust and the absence of trustworthiness in the people in leadership positions.

Whether you lead one person or millions of people, you cannot afford to be without these essential character traits, which are each discussed in practical, "this is what it looks like" language that you can start implementing today. Your success as a leader depends on how much and how deeply the components of building trust and being trustworthy are a part of you as a person and you as a leader. No one in a leadership position can afford to be without this valuable guide that will ensure priceless rewards in success at all levels of the entities you lead.

This book is written to give practical and real-world help to those us responsible for the care of loved ones with dementias and Alzheimer's Disease. It's not like all those other books. Believe me, I found most of them to be a waste of my time because they were not hands-on and accessible and they didn't tell me the stuff I really needed to know and had to learn on my own. If you want a lot of theory, this is not the book for you. If you want to read one more book that talks about dementias and Alzheimer's Disease from a high-level and clinical standpoint, this book is not for you. But you want the succinct and practical experience and advice from somebody who's walked your shoes as when I cared for my mom, this book is for you. I wish there had been one like it when I was starting that journey. Fortunately, thanks to Mom's journey, I have a chance to pass what I learned on. This is part of paying it forward.

Quintessential leadership is not a theoretical concept. Instead, it is a practical and working application of character, principles, and experience with all the teams we lead in our lives. These are not just the professional teams we lead, but the ones we lead in every other part of our lives as well. In short, quintessential leadership is who we are, what we are, and how we are. We are inseparable from it and it is inseparable from us. This book is intended to, by giving concrete and everyday examples of practically applying quintessential leadership, be a starting point for you to discover other areas in your own lives and learn how to apply quintessential leadership to them.

If you are reading this, you are in a leadership position for someone. Substitute the words "example," "mentor," or "role model," "teacher," "coach," "parent," "grandparent," "aunt," "uncle," "friend," and "neighbor," in addition to the traditional functions associated with leadership positions for the word "leader," and you'll see we all fill leadership positions for the people around us. How are we doing? "The Qualities of Quintessential Leaders" will help us all to answer that question and to find out how to improve and change so that we pass quintessential leadership qualities on to all those whose lives intersect with ours. What we do and how we do it will make a far greater impact than any words we can ever say. This book will help ensure that the footprint each of us leaves behind is one that is imitable.
