Organizations can no longer guarantee work and careers, even if they want to. Longevity was a sign of employer-employee relations; turnover was a sign of dysfunction. None of these assumptions apply today. moravecglobal continue.

The most productive leaders I know have the ability to be extremely nice, very civil and always polite while maintaining the ability to be direct, focused, and candid. Furthermore, it is quite possible to be nice without being wishy-washy or a doormat. It takes some work, but don't settle for anything less. Mark Oakes Good Post, Mike.

In the competitive worlds of business and politics a reserved attitude of humility can often be misinterpreted as a sign of weakness. However if you’ve ever negotiated with a truly confident person who is authentically humble, you’ll find that their resolve is often much greater than the feigned confidence of the arrogant.

In defense of the seagull though, I have seen many institutions and investors remove the founder diminish their capacity and position both in the company and equity, politics rearing it’s ugly head. After starting and selling 3 companies now I can look back and see I was definitely the seagull in the fist one, arguably all 3.

These CEOs are overly trusting, and often politically naive. These CEOs see management opinions as inconsequential, unless of course, they happen to be in alignment with their own beliefs and opinions. The Unaware CEO : These CEO’s will take any report or piece of information at face value.

Leaders and non-leaders alike need career-pathing, training and development. In my opinion the practice of leadership identification is simply based upon flawed business logic, and it is make-work in the purest form. I’m a huge advocate of refining initiatives that allow any level of talent to be developed to the maximum potential.

Do the numbers crunching in the early phase of your career. Short-cuts can be construed as sloppiness, a career killer. When seeking a career as you come out of school or making a job change, always take the job that looks like it will be the most enjoyable. Try to think of your life in phases so you can avoid a burn-out.

Any such argument in my opinion is rooted either in flawed business logic or politically correct rhetoric (usually one in the same). You should know from the outset that I fundamentally disagree with the concept of CEO term limits, and quite frankly I cannot really come up with a valid reason for supporting such a regressive concept.

As much as it may be politically incorrect to say so, it’s not nearly as much about the team, as it is the leader’s ability to assemble and lead the team. The most important decision a leader can make with regard to any implementation, initiative, project, objective, goal, task, etc. is who they are going to put in charge?
