So why is this? Why does miscommunication pervade at least 50% of business conversations? Is technology to blame or are there some other dynamics at work. In my experience, yes technology does have a part to play.

He pulled a card from his briefcase and handed it to her. “I apologize. I should have given one to you yesterday.”. “It’s not for me—it’s for you. It’s a challenge.” Cayla held the standard size business card in both hands, turning it over several times as though to be sure there was nothing abnormal about it.

Guest post from Sandy Coletta: I know what you are thinking - a lemming is a follower and by its very definition, a leader isn’t a follower. It is absolutely true that within a given group, the leader is setting the direction and guiding those who follow. But what happens when you assemble a group of leaders? Perhaps it starts within your organization, then within your industry?

The PR Disaster that resulted when Unilever decided a run a Dove Soap ad on its U.S. Facebook page last Friday, that showed a black woman turning white, could have been avoided with better leadership. It’s that simple! No more discussion or debate needed. It was a lack of leadership that led to this kind of tone deaf flub on the part of the company.

Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees. What these engagement programs actually do is create and reinforce feelings of victim-hood and leave employees unprepared to adapt to real changes that are necessary for the health and profitability of their enterprises.

Guest post from Tarra Mitchell : If we want our teams to follow us willingly, they first need to trust us. To gain trust, we have to learn to connect with people in a meaningful way. People want to be seen and heard. They want to know that we will be there for them if they need us. Meaningful connection is not necessarily a natural talent that comes easily.

The root of the word manifesto is the Latin manifestum , which means “to be clear or to made public.”. Every leader needs a personal manifesto—something that lets everyone know their views, their thoughts, and their beliefs and intentions. When you create your manifesto, you instill a sense of transparency that makes it easy for others to respect, emulate and trust you.
