How To Control Your Anger: Two Questions To Ask Yourself

By Guy Harris on  From recoveringengineer.com
A question that often comes up in my conversations and training sessions regarding conflict resolution is this: How do I control my anger? Great question. Sadly, it’s often the wrong question. Anger is not really a primary emotion. It does not come first. It may come quickly. It just doesn’t come first. Anger is generally the result of something else. If you imagine at your emotional container like a bottle filled with a carbonated beverage and sealed with a stopper, you can develop a...Read Full Story

the core of leadership

By Dan King on  From managementbygod.com
What is the core of leadership? Honestly, this is a question that I have not considered very much before, even though I regularly write on leadership principles. But I believe that how you answer that question will define what kind of leader you are. I have been reading a new book lately by Nancy Ortberg called Unleashing the Power of Rubber Bands: Lessons in Non-linear Leadership . I will be doing a full review on this book later, and even plan to post an interview with the author as well...Read Full Story

Just Be Nice

By Guy Harris on  From recoveringengineer.com
This week, I traveled to Boston to lead a Bud To Boss Workshop for first time supervisors. On my return trip, I connected with a flight in Chicago. I ran between gates to catch the flight to Indianapolis only to wait at the gate because this flight — like the one I had just taken from Boston to Chicago — was delayed. Upon boarding the plane, I settled into my seat beside a nice young woman who was also connecting on this flight, and I made a comment about the commuter jet we were on not...Read Full Story

Book Review: Maxwell Leadership Bible

By Dan King on  From managementbygod.com
I likely won't do this very often, but I got something for my birthday late last year that I just cannot get enough of. It is the Maxwell Leadership Bible . And knowing that my readers are here because of their interest in becoming a better leader in any aspect of life (but especially the workplace), I thought that it would be valuable to offer some insight into this incredible resource. The Bible itself is in the New King James Version. This is not my absolute favorite of the translations...Read Full Story

Fulfilling Employee Needs – Ten Critical Issues for Leaders to Remember

By Guy Harris on  From recoveringengineer.com
One sure way to kill a team is for the leader to be insensitive to or unaware of the needs of their team. In the picture above, the woman is fighting to get her need for air met. Until the need is met, she probably cannot possibly think about anything else. Employees, team members, group members — whatever you call them — can be like the woman in the picture. When their needs are not met, they find it difficult — if not impossible — to focus on anything else. Leaders who learn work in...Read Full Story

One of the first things I would like to see us accomplish as a community is to create a Vision and Mission statement. From a leadership viewpoint here are some ideas and concepts to help launch the creation of our Vision and Mission statement.

Vision statement is where we want to go or what we want to achieve.

Mission is how we will accomplish our vision.

Values: this will be an public community and portal, anyone can participate. The usual good manners, etiquette, and respect apply.

I would like the creation of our vision and mission to be a community accomplishment. Make sure to check out the discussion board to chat, debate, and discuss this project.

Vision Statement Elements
  • Measureable Results: how will we know that we have had an impact on leaders around the world? What do we want to accomplish?
Mission Statement Considerations
  • Getting our Leadership Message to the Masses: how will we use forums, blogs, and podcasts to take our message to leaders around the world?
Community Values
  • Open: anyone can participate in any section the portal.
  • Professional Behavior: Because this is an public portal professional behavior, etiquette, and good manners apply. The resident Guru(s) have the ability and sole authority to remove offending members and content.
  • Dissent and Opposing Opinions: all points of view are welcome provided they are not racist and exhibit hate.
Feel free to add to and edit to this list and/or edit the Vision and Mission statement.

Please Note: 'discuss' the Vision and Mission statements in the forum.  Thanks.
