The second trend is technology’s recognition of the first trend. First is the time pressure for our attention.

You may also notice that politicians who confuse their real job with that of a media celebrity will lose the respect of their constituency and taint their effectiveness. The same holds true with authors that release books with too high a frequency, or actors that churn out too many movies.

The harsh reality is that great numbers of leaders continue to operate in a vacuum by sequestering themselves away in the corner office and attempting to lead from afar. So the real question is this…how does a CEO get to the point of being so disconnected from operations that he or she just doesn’t have a clue?

In today's world our first contact with people is often through social media. What you say and how you say it via the social media apps is just as critical as your physical appearance at the first meeting. I would add that first impressions are not limited to physical meetings and appearance. Well done, Mike. Keep them coming.

The act of operating in the truest best interest of others is the issue. By treating "love" as a verb and as such being actionable and intentional in its application, leaders can be more purposeful and consistent. Thanks for the astute observations Mark. Mike Henry Sr. Thanks for the great post. You're right on regarding love.

Closing gaps becomes much easier when you can position differences as non-adversarial and operate within a framework of trust. If so, you likely have issues with conflict. The issue hasn't risen to a level of significance to merit their involvement, in which case you must get them to understand why the conflict merits their involvement.
