You can’t expect your manager to know what you want for your career over the long or short haul. I’ve listened as some of them speak of their disappointment when their excellent work isn’t noticed and rewarded. And the career fairy won’t just tap you and make it all happen. All Rights Reserved.

In 1943 Abraham Maslow clearly explained our hierarchy of needs includes being respected, accepted or valued by others. At the extreme end of the company circle (in blue) are the managers who indulge in what I call “harmful self-interest” when they focus exclusively on short-term sales, at the expense of their people and their values.

We have tried to make him feel like he’s a part of the team and to try to show him the importance of his position but to no avail. Thanks for the great read!

Life and leadership are too short, and the journey is so much more pleasant with someone to help. Simply by asking, you have built a bond with them. Be specific about the help they can provide.

The punishing forces of quarter-to-quarter performance expectations have forced business leaders to scramble for short-term profit gains at the long-term expense of the organization. Why do we have such a hard time spurring more rapid growth? Most organizations follow what I call the business hierarchy of needs.
