"Reality Therapy
is a practical method of helping people take better control of their
lives. It assists people in identifying what they want and what they
need and then in evaluating whether they can realistically attain what
they want. It helps them examine their own behaviors and evaluate them
with clear criteria."
Dr. Robert Wubbolding
Lead managers continually work on their system to create a non-coercive environment that encourages employees to self-evaluate and achieve quality work.
Dr. William Glasser
Reality Therapy helps people connect with others because the single most important problem in human life is lack of satisfactory relationships.
Dr William Glasser, founder of Reality Therapy and Lead Management practiced as a psychotherapist, and developed a new way of approaching people's problems in 1965.
He has continued to refine and improve his dynamic process and has applied them to Schools with great success.
In 1998 he published Choice Theory, A New Psychology of Personal Freedom, which explains why Reality Therapy works.

The Ten Axioms of Choice Theory
1. The only person whose behavior we can control is our own.
2. All we do is behave.
3. All we can give another person is information.
4. All long-lasting psychological problems are relationship problems.
5. The problem relationship is always part of our present life.
6. What happened in the past has everything to do
with what we are today, but we can only satisfy our basic needs right
now and plan to continue satisfying them in the future.
7. We can only satisfy our needs by satisfying the pictures in our Quality World.
8. All behavior is Total Behavior and is made up of four components: acting, thinking, feeling and physiology.
9. All Total Behavior is chosen, but we only have
direct control over the acting and thinking components. We can only
control our feeling and physiology indirectly through how we choose to
act and think.
10. All Total Behavior is designated by verbs and named by the part that is the most recognizable.
