Show Notes

Grant Golliher qualifies as the modern-day cowboy who tries to help others adopt the cowboy spirit.
"I'm the lucky cowboy that showed up and married the rancher's daughter. This beautiful piece of land, and the safe harbor I found in my marriage, would become the setting for me to find my true calling in life," he notes.
Golliher is referring to Jane, his wife, and the Diamond Cross Ranch in Jackson Hole, Wyo. where visitors come from all over the world to learn about leadership, trust, teamwork and many of those other mission statement mainstays.
Companies send executives to the ranch so they might think like a horse--at least for a little while. 
As Golliher describes it in his book, it's a matter of getting down to basics. Horses respond to how you act--just like people do. "If you deal with an attitude, you won't have to deal with an action," he notes.
The book relates episodes from the ranch such as Braveheart, the proud horse that didn't get a chance despite Golliher's efforts to convince the owner otherwise and Neal, the homeless alcoholic who became a trusted employee at the ranch.
Golliher's interview with Steve Tarter reveals a cowboy who's as comfortable helping others as he is in the saddle.
