I want everyone to improve and succeed and help others.
I love trees. However, years ago I learned that loving trees was not enough. Wanting a result or having a passion remains insufficient. Any interest in our ideas or leadership has less to do with passion and preferences, and more to do with the clarity of our thinking and the authentic power with which we communicate a plan worth acting on.
Brooks is one of the most thoughtful and intelligent people I know. His skills could translate to any industry or business. I am thankful that he has chosen the timber and forest products industry to focus his energies…He is a pleasure to work with and makes those around him smarter.
