Dave Maddux with Leadership, Luck & Life. We are in the middle of the holiday season, one of the all-time favorite holiday families has got to be the Griswold’s. Clark. Ellen. Cousin Eddie. Millions have watched the now classic movie of the Christmas season, National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. There is a reason this movie is one of the most popular in American culture – it presents a view of the imperfections of life, family, and relationships. And, it is just plain funny. Here are a few leadership lessons that we can learn from Clark this Christmas. 1. Every group, family or team comes with quirks, not just yours.    2. Unrealistic expectations can result in some serious disappointment. 3. Solutions to problems are often found in the least expected places. 4. Generosity matters. This year has had challenges we could not have imagined this time last year. And yet, here we are at Christmas 2024, may you accept the imperfect people surrounding you (including yourself), keep your expectations in check, and show some generosity to others, and thank God for his unconditional charity that continues to be shown to each of us through Jesus. As Clark would say, "Have the hap-hap-happiest Christmas."
