Practice doesn’t make perfect, but it does make us better. Building a championship team takes practice. From the greatest NBA season ever played by the ‘95-’96 Chicago Bulls (72-10 with a Championship) to the international dominance of the Spanish soccer team from 2007-2012, there’s one common thread…. Practice. As a leader, the best compliment is growth and improvement in your team.

I love a fresh start. Perhaps it’s because grace is the doctrine I’ve needed so much, but there’s something about a clean slate, which motivates me towards achievement. I’m like this with my desk at the office. I create stacks. Magazines to be read. Notes to be written. Lists to be completed. Bulletins from other churches. (I am always looking for better ideas.

Every once in a while, I run across someone who doesn’t want to change. How do I motivate them to change when they don’t want to? What do I do to convince them that the change is good for them? Nothing! Have you ever tried to change the behavior of an adult who had absolutely no interest in changing? How much luck did you have with your attempts at this “religious conversion”?

The vision for every entrepreneur is to eventually figure out how to scale to the point where the day to day business isn’t reliant on the owner every minute of every day. For many, this objective never comes to fruition as the business is structured in a way where the business owner is consumed and literally devoured by the entity. The business owner becomes an employee in reality and the business never grows beyond what that business owner is able to accomplish with their own two hands.

By Marshall Goldsmith, Alan Mulally & Sam Shriver / Training Industry Magazine Fall 2016. Peter Drucker presented a very simple definition: “Knowledge Workers are people who know more about what they are doing than their boss does.” Fundamentally, the ever-increasing presence of the Knowledge Worker threatens to render our traditional assumptions about top-down leadership obsolete.

In their book, Millennials Who Manage , authors Chip Espinoza and Joel Schwarzbart , quote Donna Hicks 's explanation about how dignity is different from respect. Dignity is different from respect in that it is not based on how people perform, what they can do for us, or their likability. Dignity is a feeling of inherent value and worth. Therefore, Espinoza and Schwarzbart recommend that leaders treat those they are leading with dignity and follow Hick's 10 Essential Elements of Dignity : Accept

Power is an interesting concept when leading and working within organizations. Power is not always just as it appears on the organizational chart! Just because someone’s box is higher up on the chart does not always mean that they have the most power. For example, take the following case study: One person is a senior vice president, two levels down from the CEO.

“People don’t quit bad jobs, they quit bad bosses,” according to an old saw. Our research suggests there’s truth behind this saying: bosses matter far more for employee job satisfaction than any other factor we measured. But what makes someone a great boss? Studies of leaders often focus on their style or charisma, but we wanted to look at how workers are affected by their boss’s technical competence.

Leaders often fall into the trap that they “need to delegate” more. For some reason, they’ve been led to believe that delegation is always a good thing. It’s not! If you delegate to someone who isn’t ready for the task or to someone who doesn’t want the responsibility, you will have a disaster on your hands. So, how can you do a better job of delegating?

Enron. Wells Fargo. Volkswagen. It’s hard for good, ethical people to imagine how these meltdowns could possibly happen. We assume it’s only the Ken Lays and Bernie Madoffs of the world who will cheat people. But what about the ordinary engineers, managers, and employees who designed cars to cheat automotive pollution controls or set up bank accounts without customers’ permission?

Refugees pouring into Europe from Africa and the Middle East have arguably created the greatest crisis for the “European Experiment” since it began after World War II. People are wringing their hands or shaking their fists: What to do about the millions of migrants and refugees crossing seas and borders into the West? What to do about the million asylum applications to Europe?

When fundraisers for charitable or nonprofit organizations reach out to potential donors, either online or by direct mail, they often present a list of suggested donation amounts. Often these are opt-in, meaning donors choose the amount they wish to contribute from a list of possible amounts. But could these fundraisers be harnessing the power of opt-out “default” options to improve their results?

More people ask me about email management than about any other aspect of their online lives: whether it’s the challenge of coping with an overwhelming amount of email, or figuring out how email fits into the overall flow of our daily work, most people have some kind of email pain point.

When Donald Trump first declared his candidacy for President of the United States, most analysts predicted that he has an incredibly small chance of becoming the Republican nominee. Probably the most prominent of these was Nate Silver from FiveThirtyEight. He estimated that Trump had a 2% chance of winning the nomination. This estimation was based on multiple significant historic data points about past candidates, such as the background they came from, whether they were widely endorsed by the pa
