Teddy Roosevelt once said, “This country will not be a good place for any of us to live in unless we make it a good place for all of us to live in.” We make the difference. Whether it’s our workplaces, churches, schools or communities, you and I are the determining factors about the goodness of this place we call home. The same can be said for us as a nation.

E arlier this year, I started my leadership podcast. Doing so filled me with self-doubt. Could I pull this off? Aren’t there enough leadership podcasts out there already? Who wants to listen to me? I don’t know how to do this… All these thoughts flooded my mind. So much so that I had held off releasing my podcast for years even though I had purchased podcasting equipment years before.

Productivity is the lifeblood of any successful business, and optimising this is one of the omni-present tasks of leadership. While this is a self-evident truth, however, it is fair to say that many leaders and managers either misunderstand the nature of productivity or fail to adopt the necessary techniques to motivate their employees. Either way, such misunderstandings can trigger a downturn in productivity within your business, while in the worst case scenario they can also drive low morale a

This post first appeared in SmartBrief on Leadership : Here’s a question I often get from managers: “I have employees that don’t want to be developed. They just want to come to work, do their jobs, and go home. Development isn’t for everyone, right? I can’t force them to develop if they don’t want to!” My answer? Yes, you and your employees are free to ignore that stupid individual development plan form that HR is forcing down your throats.

A large company is going through a cultural transition and is purposefully hiring senior leaders who have a track record of success in being disruptive (meaning: “find ways to change the status quo that isn’t working”). What this means is that the company expects them to take risks, try new things and make change happen. They are very clear that it doesn’t mean that these leaders can be holes.

Lousy leaders remember what they should forget and forget what they should remember. The power of the past is the permission you give it to influence the present.
Speaker: Cy Wakeman, M.S., CSP, President, Reality-Based Leadership
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.

There is one leadership skill that will influence your overall success more than any other. If you develop it well, your potential grows enormously—but if you don’t bother to learn it can end up costing you a great deal. Most people agree on the surface of it: That to become a truly great leader is to become a truly great listener. Pressed to define what makes a great listener, many will say the ability to be silent.
