Leadership, Employee Engagement and Innovation at BIF-6 Summit

Michael Lee Stallard

SEPTEMBER 19, 2010

After taking a couple days to mull it over I’ve decided to select a few presentations that will be most relevant to the themes I typically write and speak about i.e. leadership, connection, employee engagement, productivity and innovation. Below are brief descriptions of several presentations from the conference.

Leadership and Product Management

Lead on Purpose

DECEMBER 6, 2010

Product managers hold a unique position in the company: they depend on people from other groups, but they do not have managerial authority over those people (in most cases). Therefore, a product manager must earn the trust of people in the organization and influence them to do their jobs effectively and efficiently.

Where Good Ideas Come From: The Natural History of Innovation by Steven Johnson makes that cut. I’d recommend it to anyone who’s ever had bursts of inspiration and wondered why they haven’t been able to replicate those circumstances, or anyone who wants to innovate at all. Candidly, I’m blown away.

Three practices of successful product managers

Lead on Purpose

NOVEMBER 30, 2010

In most companies product managers have a lot of products and significant responsibilities. With all the meetings, floods of email, and requirements to manage, the thought of focusing on a product’s profitability can be illusive. Good product managers write understandable and timely requirements and prioritize them effectively.

Manager vs. ?

Lead on Purpose

SEPTEMBER 27, 2010

“Manager&# is an interesting title. An account manager is different from a store manager. Even within the title of “store manager&# the scope and breadth of responsibility varies widely. The manager of a 7-Eleven has significantly different responsibilities than the manager of a Costco store.

DECEMBER 3, 2010

To be a strong leader, you need to show an unshakeable work ethic. You set the bar of potential through your own work ethic, but you also have to shore up your defenses and patch up any weaknesses. The temperature is dropping quickly in the desert night. Your team is only as great as you show them to be.

If your organization confuses loyalty and tenure there is trouble on the horizon…If your business rates tenure higher than performance as a measure for employee evaluation, it is time for you to consider updating your talent management practices and procedures.

The Pride Paradox

Michael Lee Stallard

SEPTEMBER 22, 2010

Values such as work ethic, excellence and open-mindedness can be cultivated with practice. Some leaders who do this fail to develop what is arguably the most important character value: humility. Humility is not easily developed when you have wealth, power and/or status. It’s especially difficult to develop humility without the help of others.

Third, a culture that has a high degree of sharing opinions and ideas creates a marketplace of ideas that fuels innovation. Second, decision makers make better decisions when they learn from the ideas and opinions of others. With those benefits in mind, I say to Doctrine Man, whoever he may be, live long and prosper! why is everyone smiling?

I’ve also noticed that the more a company stresses its ethical policies…the more ethical problems it seems to have. Connection + Contract has the benefit of building trust that comes from developing a connection while also bringing greater clarity of terms that will maximize a meeting of the minds and expectations.

Should CEOs Have Term Limits? | N2Growth Blog

N2Growth Blog

JULY 6, 2010

Furthermore, last time I checked a CEO can always be removed for lack of performance, or moral and ethical indiscretions, so what purpose do CEO term limits serve other than to disincentivize the CEO? My recommendation is not to hand-cuff or bridle your CEO, rather give the CEO room to lead, maneuver, innovate and succeed.
