My suspicion is your best memories are of those teachers who inspired you, encouraged you, brought out your passion, and challenged you in a positive fashion. They either don’t value your contributions, or they know from experience that you’ll treat their inquiry in a belittling fashion. The boss will never go for that.&#

Experience, while a great teacher, can nonetheless result in a very costly education that rarely occurs in a timely fashion. Great work Mike… [link] mikemyatt Hi Rob: Thanks for the kind words Rob.

Popular business axioms and management theories are thrown around in such cavalier fashion these days that they can actually result in flawed decisioning. Let’s look at this from another angle…Why would you want to do business in the same fashion as your competitors? As an example, Look at Apple! But manufacturing?

By actually seeking out areas of potential conflict, and proactively intervening in a fair and decisive fashion, you will likely prevent certain conflicts from ever arising. If conflict does flare up, you will likely minimize its severity by dealing with it quickly. I Think Not. mikemyatt: RT thx @ArtieDavis @MarkOOakes @words4warrio.

I’ve addressed this topic before, but perhaps not in this fashion…True leadership is dedication to something beyond self. The act of operating in the truest best interest of others is the issue. Thanks for the astute observations Mark. Mike Henry Sr. Thanks for the great post. You're right on regarding love.

If you’re still on the fence, I would request you try and answer the following question: If you can engage those with whom you conduct business, or otherwise desire to interact with in a meaningful and value added fashion why wouldn’t you do so? Thoughts? Also, It seems like a ton of time needs to be devoted to it all.

While anyone can have a social media presence, not everyone possesses social media influence. You might have something to say, but without influence, nobody will be listening. Put simply, having a social media presence without influence is little more than an exercise in frivolity. News Flash: you can’t.

Lack of Focus and Follow-Through : Those leaders who lack the focus and attention to detail needed to apply leverage and resources in an aggressive and committed fashion will perish. Only those leaders who can quickly recognize and adapt their methods to the situation at hand will be successful over the long haul. I Think Not.

Parents are raising their children in the same fashion and we are breeding a world where people cant take rejection, and people or managers who do say no are bad or don't practice "intellegent leadership." But a leader has to be able to grow other leaders, no matter what their title and position. I Think Not.

only to fail in miserable fashion. They get the job done, they stand out from the crowd, they don’t need identifying – you know who they are. I’ve seen many an executive or consultant attempt to identify leaders with interviews, tests, evaluations, etc., I’ve never been a fan of what I refer to as “make-work” disciplines. I Think Not.

If you crush the individual character and spirit of those who form your team, how can your team operate at its best? Respect is earned by honoring commitments and doing the right thing regardless of opinion, sentiment, or influence. The strongest teams don’t weed out or neutralize individual tendencies, they capitalize on them.

I have seen and worked with several entrepreneurs and CEOs that jump on the fashion band wagon or immediately implement any idea that pops into their head with almost no analysis. I do agree with your basic premise though. This is acting before thinking, which I have never seen work. Best wishes Tom. I Think Not.

Hardened leadership experience isn't mandatory from the consultancy standpoint. I Think Not. mikemyatt: RT @janemyatt Their sacrifice.
