Let's Grow Leaders
NOVEMBER 6, 2015
The number one frustration I hear from team leaders is that their feedback falls on deaf ears. The employee seems to get it– for a minute, and then they go right back to their old habits. So they give the same feedback again, this time “louder” either literally, or through progressive discipline, or sadly sometimes threats or biting sarcasm.

Every leader has a few tread-marks on their back. How deep they go depends on you. Being thrown under the bus means someone elevated their status and lowered yours in front of others.

When you own and operate a business you need to have certain procedures for an efficient and seamless function. Sometimes the difficulty of managing your time makes for a haphazard operation. An inefficient operation results in unproductive activities which often miss the point and worse yet, result in wasted time and wasted resources. One of the ways in which you can optimize your business activities would be the focus and attention to detail that a checklist can stimulate.

Here are 10 important questions business leaders should ask, according to Ken Blanchard and Garry Ridge, authors of Helping People Win At Work : Does my business have a clear, meaningful, and easily understood vision/mission?

"Everyone carries with them at least one piece to someone else's puzzle." - Lawrence Kushner, American author (1943- ) Unfortunately, “collaboration” is not visible in many workplaces. Instead, there’s competition and jockeying for position. In places I’ve worked – either as an employee or as a consultant with clients – I faced politics and bureaucracy that undermined efforts to create a collaborative environment.

Many of the things we need to know to be successful – to innovate, collaborate, solve problems, and identify new opportunities – aren’t learned simply through schooling, training, or personal experience. Especially for today’s knowledge-based work, much of what we need to know we learn from others’ experiences, through what’s called vicarious learning.

In my decade as a leadership coach, I have heard countless versions of the same concern from my clients — committed leaders who understand the importance of giving actionable feedback to their team members – who find themselves thwarted when the person receiving it acts out, shuts down, or fails to follow through on promises. These managers can give feedback but can’t make their people take it.

You’re at the airport, ready to start a two-week business trip. But the check-in kiosk isn’t finding your ticket. You go to the counter. The representative is at first cheerful, then confused. She calls to her supervisor. Somehow, despite the printed confirmation in your hand, there is no ticket for you in the computer. You protest, politely, but the representative is firm: for reasons unknown, you have no ticket, and if you want to buy one now, it will cost you $4,000.59.

On September 29, 2015, Techdirt posted “ You Can Now Turn Off Ads On Techdirt ,” explaining all the reasons why they were granting readers the power to not see ads. Perhaps most telling was this line: “We’re going to allow you to decide how you best want to support this site and trust you to figure out the best way, rather than forcing the choice upon you.” But note who still holds the power, or agency, in this non-negotiation: it’s the publisher, not the read

Failure has become de rigeur, particularly in software start-ups that initially require little capital and small teams. The idea seems simple enough: you start with an initial venture concept, put together a team, and launch the venture. You develop minimally viable products, keep testing different market and product hypotheses, and pivot based on the market feedback you get.
