Tips on How to Defuse a Volatile Situation - I was at dinner at an AP/DP conference at Wairakei Resort a couple of years ago. As we chatted about time-challenging situations, angry parents, guardians and employees popped into the agenda. Slow things down Winton said: ‘I look for ways to slow things down. When someone comes at you with a head of steam I say: “We need to talk about this properly. Dealing with Employee Mistakes - Rita returned to the corporate world as a financial manager in a chemical company. Although she had worked in business in the past, the previous six years had been spent as a stay-at-home mother. Eager and armed with a positive attitude, she worked hard to catch up from her long absence. Rita’s boss, the company’s CFO, was friendly and understanding. She was more than willing to train Rita and catch her up on what she had missed. After two months on the job, Rita began to feel confident in her position, especially after having been told by her boss that her work was good. Then misfortune struck. One Tuesday night, in a hurry to leave for her son’s footie practice, Rita tucked the payroll cheques for employees in another office in the locked filing cabinet in her office. Tea Breaks Are Good Business - I was fascinated awhile back to read in an issue of Advice Liner magazine that there’s concern in some quarters because the Government might ‘force’ employers to give rest breaks. What I can’t fathom is why employers would need to be ‘forced’ to do it! Perhaps they and many of their employees don’t know about the health and productivity gains we all get from regular breaks in our daily routine. Daily Planning Made Simple - Don’t Start with the Easy Jobs! - Ask most people about how they manage their ‘to do’ lists and you’ll find that few use lists (if they have them) in a way that gets the best results.

Why? ‘I like to cross things off’; ‘It gives a sense of satisfaction’; ‘I’m getting up momentum for the harder jobs’ .... the reasons are many. The following very simple process has helped hundreds of thousands maintain focus and clarity: 1. At the beginning of the day (or the night before), make a list of everything you want to do, in no particular order. 2. Then identify the top 5 tasks. Number them 1 through 5, wherever they are on the list. Don't bother to number the rest - just the top 5. 3. When Mistakes Are Okay - I met John very early in my career as a time management trainer and speaker. He had put himself through university by doing casual farm work. His story about the good and bad hay contractors, and how NOT to select a casual worker, is still as vivid as the day he told it. It was his first uni summer holidays. John’s dad had a small dairy farm – not big enough for him to afford to employ his son, so John decided to seek work with a hay contractor. As it happened, two local gangs were advertising for someone to drive their bailers. Role Models Can Be Our Most Powerful Teachers - There’s a story behind the story of my friend and leadership specialist LaVonn Steiner and I, and our happy decision to collaborate, authoring ‘Getting a Grip on Leadership – How to learn leadership without making all the mistakes yourself’ and I’d like to share that with you, for it relates in a most amazing way to the topic of this issue – the leadership power... Networking Abundance - We hear the term ‘networking’ bandied about all over the place these days. When a new business owner recently asked me to describe it I found myself heading to the keyboard to clarify my thoughts. Here for your consideration are my mental perambulations. Change Is A Shape Shifter, And How To Manage It - I've discovered that change is a shape shifter. Let me explain. At the end of March 2003 we had Tom Antion, a guru on internet marketing, run a workshop for the New Zealand National Speakers Association, travelling down from his home in the USA. The Power of a Good Story - It was a hot Monday afternoon in June 2007. Gazing up at me expectantly was a sea of ebony-black faces - over one thousand graduating students of Covenant University, located on the outskirts of Lagos, Nigeria. I’d been invited there in my role as 2006-2007 World President of the International Federation for Professional Speakers.
