  • Team Leadership - The Power of Team Leadership in Business - Leaders are often metaphorically compared to eagles. Rightfully so; because like eagles leaders posses a keen since of vision and have a tremendous strength of character. However, the misnomer is when leaders assume they should be found alone like most eagles. The sighting of a noble leader may be rare; however a good leader should never be alone. When a leader acts as a lone ranger, taking all the responsibility upon himself; it is neither good for him or for the people. Both he and the people will eventually wear out. The power of team leadership in business is that there is more strength in numbers.
  • The Truth About Great Teachers and Leaders - "If he is indeed wise he does not bid you enter the house of his wisdom, but rather leads you to the threshold of your own mind." Kahlil Gibran All of us are sometimes in the role of a teacher or leader. We also are in the role of student or learner at different times. Usually the better the student a person is, the better teacher and leader he or she can become. As teachers, we frequently will emphasize those lessons we want or need to know. Many times as teachers we will learn more than our students. When we are in the role of teacher, we have an opportunity to give something back to others.
  • Secrets Of Proactive Leadership - 1. Proactive leaders are cautious without becoming paralyzed by the potential downside of action. They pursue their goals continuously but incrementally, testing/evaluating progress toward the goal. This approach assures movement toward the goal without exposing the organization to unnecessary and avoidable jeopardy. They don't play it safe but do play it cautiously. 2.

It is the survival of the fittest. Simply put, you either come correct or stay at home! What do you do when you feel like you can't run with the "big dogs;" and staying on the porch is not an option? The 5 steps to courageous leadership can provide you with strategies that give you the confidence you need to lead in uncertain times.

  • From Success to Significance: How to Develop Your Business Strategy by Defining Your Core Essence - In your business and in your life, intentional growth takes effort and focus. Sure, you may have a so-called business plan or even personal goals. You may even have them in writing. Moving from ideal to action, though, takes very specific attention to three areas of detail. Here's where some people get lost when they decide to skirt territory that may seem a bit touchy-feely. Don't be fooled. Defining and addressing your Core Values, Core Essence, and Core Business is not for the faint of heart.
  • The Top 10 Strategies for Boosting Productivity - Time is a very precious and costly commodity that many of us take for granted. Few people will readily admit that large parts of our working day are wasted through countless interruptions, procrastination, and clutter. Maximize your life through minimizing what is in it by starting with these ten creative strategies for managing and organizing a more successful enterprise. 1. Create a time management system that suits your lifestyle, preferences, and values. Throw away all the expensive time management systems that do not work for you. We all have preferences about how, when, and where to complete certain tasks and activities. By honoring those preferences, it will be much easier to accomplish more in less time. 2. Establish visiting hours. By establishing and announcing visiting hours (one hour per day,) you can reduce unnecessary interruptions while offering people the opportunity to communicate with you in a relaxed setting.
  • The Spiritual Practices of the Ninja - We know little about the origins of the Ninja, the 'children of darkness' - mysterious shadow-warriors who maintained their eerie mist-shrouded mountain secrecy in the Iga and Koga Provinces of Japan from around 900 AD, practicing the arts of stealth and invisibility. Legends, however, tell of the Ninja warrior's supposed descent from tengu, savage demons that were half man half crow and were able to bend the laws of nature and control the human mind.
  • Tips For Developing Your Prospecting Skills - Are your prospecting skills not up to par? Do you keep wondering why you are always getting rejected? Is it your business? Is it your products? Or is it you? Here's how to hone your prospecting skills to become a better prospector and take your Network Marketing business to new levels!
  • Create Deliberate Relationships - "Bodacious" means to be bold, outstanding, and remarkable. Take those attributes to work and you're on your way to building a fulfilling, bodacious career. Does having a bodacious career sound exciting to you? It is! After starting as an $8 an hour customer service rep, I rose through the ranks of AOL, accepting four promotions and surviving over six layoffs to become the head of corporate training for 12,000 employees. Along the way I learned I needed to be bodacious to achieve the career I wanted.
  • How to Be the Head and not the Tail - You know how it is, you are at work, you get frustrated because things don't seem to be happening the way they're supposed to be. You see people milling around but nothing gets accomplished. And in the daily hustle and bustle, do you feel that your goals remain just that - goals. Then maybe its time for you to stand up and do something about it. Most people are content just to stand around listening for orders. And it isn't unusual to adopt a follow-the-leader mentality. But maybe, somewhere inside of you, you feel the desire to make things happen - to be the head, not the tail. Then maybe leadership just suits you fine.
  • Leadership Exposed: Things You Thought You Knew About Leadership - Much has been written about leadership: rules, pointers, styles, and biographies of inspiring leaders throughout world history. But there are certain leadership ideas that we ourselves fail to recognize and realize in the course of reading books. Here is a short list of things you thought you knew about leadership. 1. Leaders come in different flavors. There are different types of leaders and you will probably encounter more than one type in your lifetime.
  • Successful Leadership - Beware The Silver Bullets - We are all tempted to keep looking for that one person, that one application, that one solution, that one customer that will make all the bad things go away and breathe new life into whatever we've been stuck with. The Silver Bullet - the epiphany - the stroke of lightning that cures all ills. Billions of dollars are spent every year on hope - and Silver Bullets - with little if any positive effect. A story: I was meeting with the Executive Vice President of a large multi business company. They had a business unit in Florida with continuing labor problems. The unit was union free, but every two years there would be an organizing attempt by a major national union.
  • The Special Sauce of Leadership - To say that extraordinary effort has been given to defining the characteristics of the ideal leader would be an extraordinary understatement. Researchers have spent literally countless hours trying to define this mythical individual. Any quality bookstore has an aisle or more dedicated to the subject of leadership. There are individuals that make their bones writing and lecturing on nothing but leadership. Everyone wants to know what can take them from individual contributor to shot caller. What is the trait that separates the ordinary leader from legendary one?
  • Every Women Entrepreneur Should Watch American Idol! - I almost can't believe I'm recommending this! Now let me tell you why. Because the "America Idol" TV show is great learning about what it takes to stand out in the marketplace. That's what all these singers are trying to do. I've never intended to watch the show but when I was channel surfing during a commercial break of another show I was enjoying, I was pulled in. There they were; this beautiful group of young guys and gals performing. They were performing their hearts out and then they would get critiqued. That's when it hit me. The judges were evaluating these performers much like customers assess entrepreneurs in the marketplace.
  • Wanted: A Dictionary-Perfect Leader - Answers are often before our very eyes or in front of our noses - particularly if we read the American Heritage Dictionary! Explore with me how some of the multitude of definitions for the word "leader" actually serve as a performance standard for leadership. Leaving behind the standard definition of "one who leads or guides", consider the second definition: "one who has power or influence". Have you known people in a leadership role who seem unable to influence the people around them?

  • How To Be An Effective Leader Using Law Of Attraction - Ever since the movie, The Secret was shown to the world, there is a new level of consciousness in many people about the law of attraction. The world is suddenly awakened and it brings forth a new thinking that encourages positivity in thoughts and forces people to reflect on how much of what has happened in their lives in the past is determined by what and how they had thought. Imagine, if you take this forward, how much you can influence your life and destiny and achieve all that you desire. Have you wandered how you can apply this law of attraction to your job and career.
  • Trust Withheld; Micromanagement Unveiled - Micromanagement and lack of trust are cries often heard in today's business arenas. In this age of accountability, downsizing, larger spans of control, complex global competition, and job uncertainty, all managers are faced with getting results through people. Managers preach empowerment and yet, if the results are not right, who gets the blame? And so, I think, the issue of trust resembles a crystal with four facets. The first facet has to do with that term "empowerment".
  • Coaching Techniques for Managers - Not all management training programs and management training courses offer coaching techniques for manager in their courses. First of all, why do managers need to learn coaching techniques?
  • How to Manage Absence Effectively? - Absence it is said makes the heart grow fonder. But, when an employee absents himself or herself this is definitely not going to be the case.
