Great Leadership By Dan

Guest post from Nat Greene: You can probably remember a dozen times just like this: you’re at the head of a conference table with a haggard, tired team sitting about you.

It can be tough to handle criticism. As leaders we need to be open and ready to listen to the good, the bad, and the ugly. How we respond to that criticism after listening can take many forms.

As important as it is, however, it can often get pushed down pretty far on the to-do list. Many leaders face a swarm of pressing deadlines; moreover, feedback conversations can be awkward.

Female executives are a distinct minority , and they can be particularly rare in certain industries like mining, crude oil production, and agriculture. In such environments, they often face daunting obstacles, but could there also be unexpected advantages to being in a minority group? And, if so, what? To investigate that question, we conducted extensive field research studying grape growers in Champagne, France, a region famous for its sparkling wines.

Tax evasion is a key societal challenge and causes considerable losses in government revenue. In the U.S., these losses are estimated to be about $500 billion , roughly the size of the federal government’s annual deficit. How can we ensure that people report their income correctly?

After careful review of her harried work life, Charla, an IT manager, discovered that 20% of her time over the previous two months was spent managing escalations. It seemed that each interaction with her team ended with her feeling a need to exercise her authority to rescue them from a crisis.
