Those are the people that are not only destined for greatness but have the power to help others move mountains! Taking that approach to the question of leadership makes a huge difference in the scope and power of the community. You can feel a true energy around great leaders that inspires you just by being in the same room.

As a dreamer, I can attest to the power of giving your visions some physical manifestation. I too never realized the power of writing out dreams until I started it.

The powers that paralyze us lose. We scared ourselves to begin with, so why not us to step into our own power? How many of them were preceded by the utterance of some reasonable facsimile of the key exclamation of the Booger Theorem? See what I mean? There’s always that moment when we let go of the fear. Great reminder!

Power and control are the most overrated tools out there. Ken Carroll October 30, 2010 at 3:23 am Terry, I think the ultimate control is the control that we extend over our own mental habits – thoughts, feelings, etc. When we get that internal control down, the external stuff is much easier.

For example, if we lead because we like being in a position of power and authority, it’s a safe bet that we’ll emphasize these traits in practice –and maybe even over emphasize them. What’s driving us on the inside is a powerful force that “rubs off” on everyone else – it cannot be hidden. From the perspective of a trainer, I agree.

Each time we pin-pointed the weakest link who was causing as much work as they were producing, we were left with a smaller, more powerful group who got more work done with fewer people – many weeks with fewer man hours than with a larger group. Good call on this equation. You’ve got a keen eye, my friend.

All the measurements and the metrics that we hold each other accountable to are very powerful forces, and quite necessary ones. I know, it sounds fundamental, but it can be so easily ignored by leaders in the workplace, because of all the other “nuts and bolts&# of process and policy that need to be attended to.

The trick is to have short, energetic, powerful meetings that will leave everybody focused and wanting some more. As long as this doesn’t take more than 20 minutes and the meeting is not intended to waste everyone’s time. Frankly, I think that meetings are abused and overused in the corporate world.

Sometimes the nature of this information, its source, or the manner in which it was delivered, puts some kind of strange electric charge into the knee, and consequently, it jerks upward, causing a powerful reaction. And a big leadership mistake. Mainly, a very premature and ill-informed action or decision.
