2011/12/27

It's clear to most of us that employee engagement has been steadily dropping for years. We've talked about it before on this podcast, and it's a real concern. I don't know about you, but personally, I find the terms inner work life, nourishers, and toxins kind of touchy-feely. But despite the terminology, I have found the evidence-based insights in The Progress Principle are worthy of our attention and application.

The Gift That Keeps on Giving This is a season when giving gifts takes center stage for most of us. Many of us have the gift of some time off before a new year begins. And when that new year gets into full swing, what is one of the biggest gifts you can give those you lead? I'll give you a hint: it doesn't require shiny wrapping or a pretty bow. One of the best gifts to those we lead is the gift of Respect. Encouragement. Clear goals. Autonomy. The resources they need. Creating environments where

How strategically are you using LinkedIn these days? Or other social networking sites? From my interactions with people around the world I get widely varying answers.

2011/11/09

So let me ask you.... How are you letting the current economic uncertainty impact you? These are challenging times. As much as I'd love to believe we're rising out of the mire, there's enough ambiguity and lack of national leadership from both political parties that there's plenty of reason to be concerned. That concern can make it even more difficult to lead those on your team who perhaps share even greater concerns. Leading in times of pressure is what Justin Menkes book is all about. In this

Maybe it's because I'm now in my second decade of running my business. Or it could be that our kids are getting older. But whatever the reason, it becomes more apparent to me each year that a key responsibility for us as leaders is to use our time well. For some time now I've enjoyed Peter's writing and have personally instituted many ideas from his new book.

Credibility. It's the foundation of leadership. If we don't have it, we can't lead--it's as simple as that. I trust you enjoyed the discussion with Jim Kouzes. In this premium episode I want to highlight some points from the interview about credibility. Let's start with their definition of leadership. It seems that every one of my leadership expert guests has some slight variation to the definition, and most of these variations have some subtle benefits so let's review what Jim said.

We joke about that at times when it seems like the people above us are out of touch. But why is it more difficult to see reality, the higher you get in an organization? Sometimes it's just because the people higher up are focusing on longer term issues. By virtue of their scope of responsibility, they're not in the day-to-day

2011/08/18

Check out this quote from Daniel J. Boorstin. He said,"The greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance; it is the illusion of knowledge." How often have we kidded ourselves that we knew something only to get more data or evidence later that made it clear we didn't have the full story? It happens all the time. Probably more than we realize. I find a related observation when it comes to attention. We think we see the world or situations or people clearly but inevitably it's all being filtered

Dee Hock is one of my management heroes. Dee founded VISA years ago and had many insights on how to be an effective leader. If you've sat through one of our leadership workshops, you might be familiar with one of my favorite Dee Hock quotes. Dee says: "If you look to lead, invest at least 40% of your time managing yourself -- your ethics, character, principles, purpose, motivation, and conduct. Invest at least 30% managing those with authority over you, and 15% managing your peers. Use the
