Guest post from Larry Senn: Think about the last argument you had with a colleague or even a loved one. Chances are, it was because you saw, experienced, or truly believed something that was different from the other person. Most confrontations, arguments, break ups, and irritations stem from seeing things differently from others. Many of this day-to-day irritation, anger, blame, and self-righteousness can be avoided by a simple concept called Honoring Our Separate Realities.

At one meeting of the Board of the Peter Drucker Foundation, I asked Peter, “You have written so much about mission—what is your mission?”. Peter replied, “To help other people achieve their goals—assuming that they are not immoral or unethical!”. Along with his brilliance, he was a simple and humble man who wanted to help others achieve their goals.

Edited from Lifestorming by Marshall Goldsmith and Alan Weiss. The evolutionary journey is not grandiose, but gradual. It’s about doing something—even small things—every day, not waiting for huge leaps and otherwise doing nothing. Children evolve very quickly. Why should we be different as adults? The challenge is that in adults, evolution must be self-intentional.

When a business , career, marriage, strategy, or some other aspect of life isn’t working, many of us take one of two options: We stubbornly resist change and continue to do what isn’t working, or we scrap everything and start something new–anything new. We fully commit to that course of action and burn the ships. With the first option, we effectively embrace a joyless existence that lacks passion and fulfillment.

[Edited from Lifestorming by Marshall Goldsmith and Alan Weiss]. In 1980, Peter Drucker wrote a cutting-edge book called Managing in Turbulent Times. Today, turbulent times are the norm, so we might as well get used to them and get better at dealing with them. Features of today’s turbulent times include: No expectation of privacy. Immediate and irretrievable communication.

In my work around the world, I hear a lot of frustration as people, leaders, and managers face significant industry changes and work harder than ever — frequently, they are frustrated because in the past, bad decisions were made at their organizations and they feel they are taking the brunt of those poor decisions. For instance, in one bank that I know well almost every part of the business had a great year — except the division that lost billions of dollars and negated all of the other division

Whether you are just starting out in business, or have been running your own firm for the past decade, it can be difficult to get your business noticed in today’s increasingly competitive world. While you might previously have been the market leader in your field, any reputation or titles that you have earned can be taken away in a heartbeat, if a competitor is able to provide the same services for a quarter of your prices.

Edited from Lifestorming by Marshall Goldsmith and Alan Weiss. Have you ever met a very confident leader? A person who exudes self-esteem and somehow commands respect. This person isn’t really different from anyone else, they just seem different because they consistently demonstrate a high level of confidence in themselves, their actions, and their decisions.

Edited from Lifestorming by Marshall Goldsmith and Alan Weiss. In our eagerness to succeed—perhaps the most intense type of social pressure in American society—sometimes, instead of living our real values, we adopt the values we think we’re supposed to have. For instance, when we hear that charismatic people are successful, we try to seem charismatic (even if that’s an awkward fit for our personality).

Foreclosure is a process that enables a lender to recover the amount owed on a loan defaulted by a borrower. This is achieved through selling or repossession of the property securing the loan. The foreclosure process begins when the lender files a public default notice, called a Notice of Default or Lis Pendens after a borrower defaults on loan payments.

Edited from Lifestorming by Marshall Goldsmith and Alan Weiss. The most successful leaders know that building your legacy starts now. Not next week, not next year, and not when you decide to retire, but right now! Legacy is often thought of as something left behind or handed down by a predecessor. While that may be true and common, what’s not so commonly understood is that legacies do not appear upon retirement, departure, or death.

A few outlier industries (notably pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and computers) prop up the sector’s aggregate performance; most others have experienced flat growth or outright declines in real GDP over the past two decades.

As an executive coach, I have a unique compensation system – I only get paid if my clients get better. “Better” means my clients achieve positive, measurable change in behavior, not as judged by themselves but by their key stakeholders. This process usually takes about 18 months and involves an average of 16 stakeholders. My coaching approach has been described in several major publications, such as Forbes and The New Yorker.

Multi-bits/Getty Images. Mobile phones have become the new prey of choice for hackers and other nefarious individuals. Once compromised, our phones offer easy access to our personal and financial information, giving hackers the ability to sell that information on the dark web and to ransom our information. But despite the growing threats to our smartphones, most people — even most corporate executives — still don’t take basic security precautions.

We are constantly bombarded with opportunities to grow, be better, and develop as human beings. Not everyone rises to the challenge.
