In today’s post I’ll deal with a skill set that all successful CEOs excel at…managing board relations. What’s interesting to me is that of all the constituencies that CEOs must deal with, the relationship with a board of directors is among the easiest to manage.

Gradually over time, America has become overly obsessed about managing tasks. Leadership is all about the human experience. When managers invest time to develop connections with and among people they become real leaders who people want to follow. Employees responded by cutting costs in excess of six percent.

The articles should have been written on the topic of poor leadership. Toxic work environments can only exist where a lack of trust and respect are present, and this can only occur in the absence of sound leadership. While these articles tended to stir the pot a bit, they were in my opinion mostly missing the mark.
