How to Write a Great Individual Development Plan (IDP)
Great Leadership By Dan
NOVEMBER 24, 2008
An individual development plan (IDP) is a tool that helps facilitate employee development. It’s a two-way commitment between an employee and their manager on what they are going to do to grow. IDPs are often used as a way to drive leadership development. Organizations like them because they are visible, tangible evidence that leadership development is taking place.

20 Best Leadership Movies; Break Out the Popcorn
Great Leadership By Dan
SEPTEMBER 28, 2008
Movies are a great way to learn about leadership! Here’s CCL’s Clemson Turregano, who has facilitated "leadership at the movies" sessions for years: "I started using movies when I was teaching at West Point and then at the Naval War College," he notes. Movies, like a case study, offer real-life portrayals of examples of leadership in crisis. Viewers can use these portrayals to discuss the behaviors they would like to emulate or avoid during similar circumstances."

Time to Breathe, Think and Make Your Dreams Come True
Women's Leadership Exchange
DECEMBER 5, 2008
We all race around as if the more we do, the more successful we will be.and it's not true. The new ideas, the right connections, come when we breathe, and take time to think about our business. Only then can we shape it to fulfill our dreams and the current market needs. Please don't hate me when I say, maybe this recession is a good thing. The slowdown of business forces us to reassess, rethink and. really go deep to say,"is this really what I want my life to be like?"
Sex and the City Meets Another Career Women
Women's Leadership Exchange
JUNE 8, 2008
I was delighted with different viewpoints many of you shared in the Sex & the City Blog! I think this is the biggest exchange of blog entries we've had yet!! By the way, to those of you who disagreed with my blog, I say "thank you." " I welcome your disagreement! Please don't judge me or the WLE based on what I wrote! I certainly don't judge you. WLE is an "exchange" of ideas, knowledge, opinions, expertise, support etc.and isn't that what blogging is all about?
Sex and the City and Women in Business
Women's Leadership Exchange
MAY 31, 2008
I enjoyed the new film Sex and the City - it was colorful, full of fashion, & silliness - it was entertaining! And that's why we go to the movies isn't it? But now 2 days after seeing it, and after reading an article in the Wall St. Journal about how young teen girls are flocking to it, even though it may have an R rating, I got concerned. And it isn't the R rating that concerns me (though I'm sure that's not good), it's the underlying message that it sends to young girls and women.

Engage much? It’s not just the words you say…
Anese Cavanaugh
DECEMBER 16, 2008
It’s not necessarily the words you say, but rather the tone, the intent and the physiology you say them with. I often have clients come to our meetings with issues about “unintentional impact”…saying or doing something and having it perceived in a negative way. One of the things you can do when you’re not getting the result you want from your communication is to look at the result you DO get, plus these 4 things: Intention: What is the intention of my communication?
Women Rule in International Diplomacy
Women's Leadership Exchange
NOVEMBER 23, 2008
The buzz about Senator Hillary Clinton becoming Secretary State is so loud that I believe it is "safe" to. comment on it. I read that Gloria Steinem says Senator Clinton should accept it and Marie Wilson, head of the White House Project, says she would prefer the senator stay in the Senate, so I thought I'd offer you my opinion so that you can make your comments.
Dare to Challenge FEAR
Anese Cavanaugh
DECEMBER 2, 2008
What does failure have to do with action? I wrote an article on daring to celebrate failure. I spoke about the learning and growth and opportunities that we can find when we allow ourselves to really celebrate and learn from our failures. A couple of months later, I’m curious how that’s settled for readers. Curious what that article, the exercise provided, and the invitation to truly celebrate failure may have brought up for you. Resistance? Permission? A sigh of relief? Just notice.
Dare to Elevate Engagement
Anese Cavanaugh
DECEMBER 2, 2008
Did you know: 21% of the global workforce considers themself actively engaged in their work right now (loyal, passionate, positive, enjoying their work.) 38% are actively disengaged (meaning they’re complaining, bringing morale down, looking for another job, etc.) And the remaining 41% aren’t sure where they stand. Does that suprise you?
Gratitude…A gift in itself
Anese Cavanaugh
NOVEMBER 24, 2008
I LOVE Thanksgiving…it may very well be my favorite holiday. To me, this week is one of the happiest of the year, regardless of what’s happening in the economy, in the world, in our own personal lives. Truly. One of the happiest of the year. Because we get to walk around expressing gratitude, more than usual, not that we can’t everyday (because I personally believe we absolutely can and should). But because it gives us an extra container and nudge to create space for gratitude.

Good Morning President Obama
Women's Leadership Exchange
NOVEMBER 5, 2008
Waking up this morning, I smell "hope" in the air, rather than the familiar smell of coffee. What a welcome fragrance! It truly fills my entire body. I usually never use the word "hope," cause for me it is not a word of action - and I like action.
The Mystery (and Simplicity) of Engagement…
Anese Cavanaugh
NOVEMBER 13, 2008
How do you keep your team engaged? How do you personally stay engaged? In your work? At home? In your personal life? In your fitness regime? It’s easy to “check out”…especially with so many competing demands. So how do you stay “fully engaged?”. I had a meeting yesterday with a colleague who shared with me that she “didn’t like how something was going, so she changed it.” That simple.
Got Leadership?
Women's Leadership Exchange
MARCH 3, 2008
Got Leadership? Who’s got it? How do you get it? The word “leadership&# has recently been batted about the media, especially as it relates to our current slate of political candidates. Journalists and opinion leaders are asking, “Does she/he have the right leadership style to lead America?&# What exactly are they talking about? I believe many of these reporters have two words mixed up – leadership and management.

All this on the heels of Hurricane Ike's devastation. Fall 08 seems to be coming in ferociously. All this in the midst of a presidential election that is full of attacks, innuendoes and fear.

Follow the Monkey 's Advice
Women's Leadership Exchange

These days, it can be dangerous to one's mental state, not to mention one's business, to read the business pages or listen to the news.Bear Stearns going down, Eliot Spitzer, the Dow Industrial tumble, economists saying that the "r" (I refuse to say the word) has arrived, etc. Therefore, I follow the advice of my stuffed monkey (from my childhood), who has recently been featured in a TV commercial traveling around the world in the briefcase of an executive.

Excellence is a Drive from Inside, Not Outside
Self Help Zen

A man once visited a temple under construction where he saw a sculptor making an idol. Suddenly he noticed a similar idol lying nearby. Surprised, he asked the sculptor, “Do you need two statues of the same idol?”. Well,” said the sculptor without looking up, “We need only one, but the first one got damaged at the last stage.”. The gentleman examined the idol and found no apparent damage. Where is the damage?” he asked. There is a scratch on the nose of the idol.”
