Great Leadership By Dan

Guest post from Jack Litewka : “How can I know whether I’m a Good Manager or a Great Manager?” (I’ll assume that no one reading this article is a Bad Manager.) That’s an important question that all leaders need to ask themselves. “Why is it an important question?” Because a Great Manager achieves significantly better results than a Good Manager does – in revenue, in profit margin, in out-of-the-box thinking, in exceeding expectations, in team morale, in talent retention, in enhancing the reputat

I am pleased Danby has the herb grower out. It is called Danby Fresh. I love it because: 1 - it is good the the environment. We re-use the shell of a wine cooler. Much better than recycling it. 2 - I am a health guy and love fresh herbs. When you buy at the grocery store, they are often old. And the quantity is not right so there is waste. 3 - I know what I grow is organic. + We tend to overestimate what we can do in a day and under estimate what we can do in a decade.

In general, the Geneva airport runs like a Swiss watch, as the saying goes. But not every operation at the airport runs with the country’s trademark efficiency. As I was being checked in by SAS Airlines (the airline you might have read about at Harvard Business School), the woman at the counter realized she did not have a priority luggage tag, so she hopped over two other stations to fetch a handful.

It is confusing to know better methods exist but see them being ignored. It seems that if there were better ways to manage, people would adopt those methods. But this just isn’t the case; sometimes better methods will be adopted but often they won’t. People can be very attached to the way things have always been done. Or they can just be uncomfortable with the prospect of trying something new.

In an organization the unwritten rules are just as, if not more, important than the written rules. I wrote about this idea HERE. If you are considering making changes, implementing something new, adding staff, or any of dozen other decisions in your organization, you need to also consider the these “rules” of the organization. Here are a 7 examples of unwritten rules: The culture.

An evolutionary geneticist, a professional gambler, and a business school professor walk into a bar. What might appear to be the start of a horribly nerdy joke is simply a scene that could happen any evening at the Santa Fe Institute (SFI) in Santa Fe, New Mexico. And it did recently when I visited SFI’s president, evolutionary geneticist David Krakauer.

Most of us feel that we’re completely stretched to capacity at work and have nothing left to give. But according to a recent Gallup poll, 70% of the workforce is either “actively disengaged” or “not engaged,” meaning there are millions of professionals who have discretionary effort — effort they could give if they felt motivated and inspired.

The loneliness that often comes with being a CEO may seem like a small price to pay for the rewards, recognition, and power that come with the job. As the old joke goes, “It might be lonely at the top, but the view is terrific.” But being isolated at the top can compromise your decision making and leadership effectiveness, both of which require having as much firsthand information about a situation as possible.

Research has found that superstar CEOs, those who win awards like “CEO of the year,” can earn an average of about $7.8 million more in annual pay. But what about superstar firms? Can prestigious companies get away with paying their CEOs less? We investigated this question in an empirical analysis published in the Journal of Financial Economics.

Larry Summers, former U.S. treasury secretary, is calling on American business leaders to stand up to President Donald Trump. Summers sharply criticizes the administration’s protectionist agenda, and he says it’s time for executives to call out how those policies undermine the economy and the country’s best interests in the long term.

It is no secret that replacing the Affordable Care Act, popularly known as Obamacare or the ACA, is high on the agenda of the incoming Republican administration and Congress. Speaker Paul Ryan has said that the law has “failed.” In the campaign debates, Donald Trump said it was “destroying our country.” But even as the new administration has issued its initial executive orders, Republicans have yet to offer a true alternative plan, and the timing on replacement is still h
