Cassville Democrat: C. J. Huff offers inspirational speech at Chamber banquet


The Cassville Democrat offers coverage of Joplin R-8 Superintendent C. J. Huff's speech at Saturday night's Cassville Area Chamber of Commerce Banquet:

Dr. Huff ended his address with several inspirational lessons he learned in the tornado's aftermath:

* The relationships developed today are the relationships that may be needed to survive tomorrow.

* Find something to celebrate every day. Short-term wins become a symbol of progress and hope.

* The work that is done to develop system-wide leadership capacity pays dividends in a crisis. Anyone can step up as a leader.

* If you have hired well, never underestimate the ability of the leadership team.
