Guest post by Dr. Steven Mintz: Ethical leaders create a culture in the workplace that promotes moral values and establishes an ethical tone at the top. Creating an ethical culture means setting a standard that decisions are made and actions are taken that are right, not wrong; good, not bad; and they benefit the stakeholders of the organization. Ethical leaders are role models for others in the organization to follow.

Great leaders must be effective communicators. That means they have to know how to speak and write clearly—and it also means they also have to know how to listen. Most of us don’t think of listening as a communication skill, but it’s one of the most important. The best leaders are skilled at listening—here’s how they do it: They listen with full attention.

One of my mentors, Harvard professor Ron Heifetz, likes to say that leaders can either be on the dance floor or on the balcony. In the fast-paced world that we live and work in, it can be all too easy to spend most of your time dancing and not enough up on the balcony observing what’s working, what’s not and what adjustments you need to make to live and lead at your best.

Silos form in organizations as a result of a rigid classification system that comes naturally to humans. We form ourselves into groups and separate people into “us” vs. “them.” As a result, silos cause problems in organizations: Silos can hinder collaboration, because groups don’t communicate or share information.

There have been instances in my career when I have been led perfectly and poorly. But when I think back on the memorable experiences when I was led successfully, it came down to these three things. The leader challenged me. The leader empowered me. The leader rewarded me. The Keys to Memorable Leadership. Many years ago, in the marketing department where I was working, I wanted to improve a project filing system.

While in PR circles, no publicity is thought to be bad publicity, there are numerous examples of where scandals have been enough to sink the career of a leader without trace. The fact that newspapers hunt down such titillating stories makes them a regular staple of the news cycle, but this lust for scandal can ensure that some of those scandalized live to tell the tale.

Older people aren’t perhaps the first you think of when it comes to innovation, yet a recent study from Penn State highlights the crucial role they can play in local innovation. Indeed, the research found that older adults often lead the way in terms of innovation, because they can combine their extensive knowledge with unheralded levels of creativity to revitalize their local communities.

If you are a manager or leader, you likely know more than your employees or team members about many things within your business or organization. And, you often have many of the answers. But, you don't know it all. So, readily admit when you meet with your employees/team that you do not know all the answers. Invite others into conversations. Ask for their input.

How much earth in cubic feet is there in a hole one foot by one foot by one foot? It’s an old question. The answer? None. It is a hole. Questions like that can trick us into overthinking the answer. Because of the format and information, our brains instantly start doing math that misses the point. I am a fan of William of Ockham, a theologian from the 1200’s who coined what we call Ockham’s Razor: make things as simple as possible but no simpler.

In a desperate attempt to kill the United Automobile Workers (UAW) strike against General Motors , the Detroit automaker announced a decision to shift healthcare costs to the union. Now that the GM healthcare benefits have been terminated, UAW will be forced to reach into its strike fund to pay the bills. This invalidates GM’s confirmation to UAW negotiators on Monday that workers’ benefits would be covered through the end of the month.

So you may have noticed that I’ve done precious little posting to my own blog. Yes, I’ve been writing here and there in other publications, yet I have neglected my own. To be fair, I’ve been busy. It’s been a hell of a year. Over the past 12 months, I’ve left one job, had surgery (I’m fine, thanks!), took some time off, started another job (which I love), and have generally just been settling into a new normal.
