How you show up in the world matters. You can go along to get along. You can have a public persona or a mask you work from. If your mask spoke, you might hear: “Don’t make anyone uncomfortable” or “never let ’em see you sweat,” or “a good offense is better than a good defense.” Relationships with people are one thing. Relationships with peoples’ humanity is another thing altogether.

Successful leaders believe in accountability. When I say, “Leaders hold people accountable,” who comes to mind? Employees, right? Authentic leaders think of themselves, as well as others, when they think of accountability. Authority without accountability is abuse. Beginnings: Accountability begins with leaders, not employees. If you want accountability from others, become accountable to others.

Change Starts Here
AUGUST 6, 2015
Contrary to what some might think, the task of implementing change does not lie solely with the change manager, or anyone else for that matter. Yet, all too often, the responsibility for the tasks involved is assumed and not clearly defined. This lack of role clarity leads to confusion and blame, and important jobs go undone. Defining accountability for the many moving parts of change is a necessary – and continual – step in the change process.

Recently, I sat for an hour with a sales representative from Oracle. (One of those chance, accidental encounters). He know his stuff. He knew things, many things — things that I did not know.

Several years ago, while pastoring a church we planted, I received email feedback from someone who attended our church. The lady had not grown up attending church very often, but wanted to learn the Bible and about “the things of God” (her words). The part of her email which caught my attention most was when she thanked us for being a “ church for dummies “ (And, again, that was her term — not mine.).

Peter Scholtes , The Leader’s Handbook , page 331. Peter worked with Dr. Deming and presented at the 2 day Deming seminars with W. Edwards Deming. You will see this quote attributed to Dr. Deming even though it shouldn’t be.

Rich was a plant manager with a 10,000-person workforce producing a billion dollars of product per year. He was a pro at his craft and highly respected in his industry. I met with him and his team weekly as an organization development consultant for a couple of years. Someone from HR asked him to participate in a new program called “360 Feedback.” He had never heard of such a thing but thought it seemed worthwhile. “After all,” he told me, “feedback is the breakfast

A lot of talented people grapple with the disruption of having to switch jobs or careers and figuring out how their current profession’s skills can be applied in a fulfilling new way. The good news is that other industries may value your talents just as much, if not more, than your existing one.

Steven Moore. Despite all the media attention venture capital gets, it’s far from the most common source of startup funding.
