Tough Times Demand Resilient Leaders - The stock market gyrates with unpredictable and heartburning results. Icons of solid companies become straw figures before balance sheets. Children are abducted from their front yards and networks of terrorists spiral throughout the world. Religious institutions cast shadows of duplicity while El Nino brings strange fish to the California coasts and out-of-control fires head toward ancient Sequoias. Tough times. It's enough to cause all of us to stand like the proverbial "deer in headlights", mutter "the sky is falling", or else spring into action. The latter would be fine but it's often a knee-jerk response based on what we've done in the past. Trouble is that the present doesn't look like the immediate past. Patience Not Panic: Survive and Thrive Through Economic Turbulence - From 28,000 feet, snow still spots parts of Michigan, Illinois and other states further West. The earth looks brown and barren, dark and ugly from this vantage point. But I know that if I could walk the fields and wait patiently, I'd see signs of new growth inching out of hardened earth. I'd eventually find dead-looking tree limbs swelling with rising sap, pushing buds into blossom under the warming sun. How Chief Executives Can Improve Their Performance with Personal Reflection - Wise experienced leaders from all walks of life tell me that personal reflection is one their most valuable tools for remaining effective and ahead of the game. Entelechy Speaks to Marshall Goldsmith about Coaching - I've had the pleasure and honor to meet some of the world's greatest leaders and leadership gurus, from Sir Richard Branson, General Tommy Franks, and Captain Mike Abrashoff to Dr. Warren Bennis, Dr. Henry Mintzberg, and Tom Peters. And I get paid to do it! Through our work with Linkage Inc., we help support their broadcasts of these famous people by designing and developing participant and facilitator guides that many clients use to turn a 90-minute presentation into a true learning and growth opportunity. I recently had the opportunity to meet with Marshall Goldsmith, world authority in helping successful leaders get even better by achieving positive change in behavior: for themselves, their people, and their teams. How to Sell Affiliate Products and Make a Profit? - Affiliate marketing was there even before internet came into the picture. It was not invented by netpreneurs. That's what they would like us to believe but they would be telling the truth when they say that affiliate marketing took off like never before with the coming of the internet. In the beginning it was only homemakers wanting to make some extra money who went into this business. But, the success of affiliate marketing has been such that professionals like doctors, lawyers etc., are jumping into the bandwagon. A Great Manager is a Great Communicator - Who is a great manager? Well, this question can have many answers but anyone running a management training program or management training course will tell you that - A great manager is a great communicator. This does not mean however, that all the other skills that a manager possesses are redundant. That is not what it means. But, unless you are a good communicator you cannot be a good manager. Differences between Management and Leadership - 'Management and leadership', usually these words are generally heard together. Are they interconnected? Are there any differences between them? This is a discussion that has been going on for some time and will be around for some time to come. It is a common topic for discussion in various management training programs and management training courses. Top 5 Tips of the Most Successful Sales People - Learning from others experiences and mistakes is always a good idea. And for a sales person what better way to learn than from some of the most successful sales people. Some sales training and sales coaching classes bring in successful people to give a talk to the new batch of sales people. But, if you haven't got a chance to hear these people talk then, not to worry here are the 5 tips from the most successful sales people. Tip#1 - Focus on Clients True, you are representing your company, but, your focus should be on the client. 10 Steps To Success In Direct Sales - Every year thousands of men and women across America sign on with direct selling firm-Tupperware, Amway, or a cosmetic company-hoping to make money enough for new draperies, a new davenport,... How Emotional Intelligence Creates Effective Leaders - Research indicates that Emotional Intelligence (E.I.) - how we handle ourselves and our relationships - can determine success more than I.Q. In fact, E.I. may determine as much as 80% of a person's life success. Cognitive ability or what we call I.Q. is only about 20%. Quality leadership training is a combination of E.I. and cognitive ability. More specifically, Daniel Goleman (along with two E.I. researchers: Richard Boyatzis and Annie McKee) explains the role of E.I. in leadership in Primal Leadership, Realizing the Power of Emotional Intelligence (2002). How to Access the Power of Trust and Respect in the Workplace - People naturally include trust and respect in their list of important values. Yet so often, at all levels, people complain that they are missing. Every human is a sovereign entity and is owned by nobody. Nothing but force can change that. How to Bust Bureaucracy - "Bureaucracy - any administration where action is impeded by unnecessary procedures" - Collins Concise English Dictionary In your own organisation, do you ever think "Why are we doing this?" or "Why aren't things moving as planned or desired? Do you notice people becoming more difficult to deal with? Are You Ready For Leadership? - Let's get straight to the point! I've taken the gloves off and we're going to play it like it is. If you want to be a "LEADER" in your current MLM or company then you must to regurgitate and puke out the "junk" in your life! Huh? Now, stay with me....and read on... Let's get straight to the point! I've taken the gloves off and we're going to play it like it is. Why We Don't Hire Effectively - Last time we talked about how Jane and Bob interview, whether they're interviewing for rising stars in the company or just good, solid citizens for particular positions. However, it's not as simple as just knowing what you're looking for. You also have to be able to hire effectively; that means to know what you're looking for and how to find it. Wouldn't it be nice if it were easy? If everyone could hire effectively and had perfect hiring matches? Company and new hire living happily ever after? Mentor or Coach? - The context of executive coaching and mentoring in this article refers to their application from an organisational perspective, where coaching or mentoring is being used to develop middle to senior managers to a higher level of performance. The organisation may be a commercial entity or government department. A professional Executive Coach is usually hired from outside the organisation, while a Mentor is usually an internal employee. Characteristics of the Best and Brightest - We've been talking recently about how Jane and Bob manage teams. They've been managing so well that now it's time to hire more people. Is Leadership Mentoring Actually Effective? - I love watching the show "American Idol". It is amazing to see such an incredible transformation from initial audition, to the finals show where a winner is declared. So how do these average people make this amazing transformation? Simple, they are mentored by several experts in a short period of time. Viewers do not really see all the activity that takes place behind the scenes, between each show. Motivating Others - Last time we saw how Jane and Bob work on communication, especially around problems, and that they are very clear when asking for what they need. Sometimes, they find that asking isn't enough; they have to motivate their staff and team members. LET'S TALK ABOUT YOUR STRENGTHS, JIMâ€¦. Jane and Bob motivate their direct reports by focusing on their strengths, rather than weaknesses. People succeed when their tasks and goals build on their strengths, and they want to be and feel successful. Jane and Bob work around their direct reports' weaknesses by providing peer coaching and pairing with other people who are strong in their weak areas. Leadership for Project Managers - Leadership In the first half of the 20th century there was a belief that Scientific Management was the new way forward. Scientific Management was the herald of a new era, removing the need for skilled craftsmen, for example on Henry Ford's production lines, and making the factory owners richer. The principle was simple; reduce complicated tasks to a series of simple tasks, each task being performed by a different person. People were treated as machines and doomed to boring, repetitive tasks. Sun Tzu's Art of War and Chinese Astrology - Two ancient systems, one timeless goal: Part 2 - A person's destiny is further governed by the following factors:- - Timing (to be born at the right time) - Space (to stay at the right place) - Action (to do the right things) Timing refers to the time of birth when a person is infused with the energy of the universe or heaven's luck which is one's fate. Space refers to the place of habitation or earth's luck where the energy of the environment affects the inhabitants on earth. Action refers to the cause and effects of one's attitudes and actions or man luck. In "The Art of War", whether a battle ends in victory or defeat depends on the conditions of the landscape or environment surrounding the army.
