I like to ask workshop participants where they got their power. Some say from their jobs; others say from within themselves. Most people, however, say they don’t have any power, nor do they want any. Their point of view is understandable. Too often, we see those in high ranking positions use their power to control or for personal gain. Their actions turn us off, so we turn away from wanting to have power, seeing it as something negative or that corrupts.

You’re scared. I get that. I’ve been scared before too. Some days, I still am scared. I’m scared of the potential within me. And I’m scared I’m not living up to that potential. Worse, I’m scared of what the potential inside of me is capable of. For years I’ve written these blog articles sharing ways you […] The post Shine Your Light appeared first on Joseph Lalonde.

What do you do when someone asks you a question? If the words "answer it" formed in your head, you're WRONG! "You should respond to a question," argues co-author James O. Pyle. "Responding to a question is better than answering it. Your response to any questions can pack much more power and meaning if you start to 'see into' the question and better understand what information the other person wants.".

Every church I know needs leaders. Jesus said, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few…” I’m convinced, based on other Scripture, some of those workers should be leaders of other workers. Throughout the Scriptures God used men and women to lead others to accomplish great things — all to His glory. And, I’m equally convinced, just as there are not enough people working who should be working – there are not enough leaders who should be leading.

When you walk into a clinic or a hospital, all you are seeing is what makes up that treatment facility on that day. Perhaps, you consider that the doctor has studied medicine to give you the right diagnosis and cure. However, that is a snapshot in time of a part of society that is always changing. From the very beginning of the industry in history, healthcare and those that perform it have been constantly adapting to their times and learning from what they see.

Grove Pashley/Getty Images. Robert is a strong leader. How do I know? When he left one company to join another, many in his top team followed him to the new company because they wanted to keep working for him. That’s a pretty strong testimonial. “Yes, he pushes us hard,” one of his direct reports told me, “but I work harder and I deliver.

S O MUCH OF LEADERSHIP is managing tensions. Leaders must know when to adapt. This is where self-awareness plays a big part. In a word, they need balance. And that’s what The Dichotomy of Leadership by Jocko Willink and Leif Babin is all about. After the publication of their first book, Extreme Ownership , many people latched on to the aggressive implications of the word “extreme” and missed the more nuanced balance that a leader must have.

George Diebold/Getty Images. It has become common advice for businesspeople to use “ I statements ” — such as, “I feel frustrated that you missed the budget deadline twice” — as a way to raise challenging conversations without causing colleagues to feel blamed or under attack. Indeed, I statements may be helpful during situations in which you have a close personal relationship to a colleague who cares about your well-being, or when you want to show that a part

Justin Sullivan/Getty Images. Amazon recently made headlines by announcing that it would voluntarily increase its minimum hourly wage to $15. With a federal minimum wage of only $7.25, this pledge might seem like a curious decision — especially for a company as laser-focused on cost containment as Amazon. But thinking only about the costs involved in raising wages misses a key issue: pay hikes can also boost workplace productivity.

Nicolas Vallejos Photography and Design/Getty Images. Health care practitioners and payer organizations increasingly use big data to overcome what might be called a “flaw of averages” in traditional medicine: a treatment that has been tested at a population level might in fact work better for some individuals than others. The goal of precision medicine is therefore to identify treatments appropriate to an individual — rather than a population — based on granular genotype

Peter Cade/Getty Images. Women engineers have a visibility problem. Like women in other ultra-masculine sectors, they are often excessively visible as women, but overlooked when it comes to their technical expertise. This paradox gets in the way of forming relationships at work and hurts their advancement. We wanted to know how women deal with this.

Inti St Clair/Getty Images. It is no doubt a sign of progress that a significant proportion of organizations and managers today appear to feel guilty when they admit that they are making big management decisions in an intuitive rather than evidence-based way. Indeed, being data-driven has joined the ranks of “innovative”, “diverse”, and “socially responsible” as the one of most laudable features of organizational culture, at least if we go by company websites.

ShutterWorx/Getty Images. The consumer banking industry is notoriously difficult to enter, not least because most customers rarely switch banks. In some countries, people change spouses more often than they change banks. The banking industry in South Africa was no exception; for decades the industry was dominated by “the Big Four” (Standard, FNB, Nedbank, and Absa).
