Every week over on LeeCockerell.com, Lee shares a Leadership thought, just something to think about in your daily life. Every week, we will be sharing with you that thought and adding some insight into how that plays into the Gen-Y lifestyle. So without further ado, this week's leadership thought is:

We have to to continue to educate (train) ourselves and our teams so they have the knowledge to make the right decisions and to perform effectively.

I like the second half of this equation. It's not solely about training yourself. You need to train your team to be on the same level or better than you to be successful. If you want your company to adapt social media, teach them about it so that they become the experts. If you are well versed in accounting, help out others that are a little sluggish in your organization. By making everyone better you make your team better. It goes back to the old saying that

"you are only as strong as your weakest link."

What do you think? How do you help your weakest link?
