      Anthony Iannarino               Where are You Taking the Team Under Your Charge?  As a leader, you are responsible for sales, one way or another. In fact, nothing happens in business until a sale has been made. So, are you achieving the income goals, sales goals, or any other big goal you are responsible for? Are you eating their lunch, or are they eating yours? As a leader, it is imperative that you set specific ta...

      Fred Halstead                 Are You a Good Listener?  Be honest. Are you a great listener? Have you mastered the art of asking powerful questions? Do you show respect to team members by delegating and holding them accountable for results? One of the measures of good leadership is the number of successful people who are the result of your leadership. Showing respect for team members and helping them achieve succes...

      Elise Auxier               How is Energy Affecting Your Leadership? Every one of us has a ‘tank’ of energy, both positive and negative. What will you choose to do with yours? It is not woo-woo when I say that everything is made up of energy. It was a discovery of Albert Einstein. As leaders, we should be taking responsibility for not operating out of habit or default, and begin making choices (using our energy) that...

        Warren Berger               Perfect the Art of Asking Beautiful Questions  You are a leader. You’ve earned that position because of what you know and how you implement that knowledge. People come to you for answers. Having the answer is great, but so is having the confidence and humility to admit when you don’t. It is impossible to know everything in today’s complex world, but it’s not impossible to find answers ...

      John Hinkle               SHIFT Happens – Prepare for Your SHIFT and Get on the Path YOU Desire Any day is a good time to make a change, yet we routinely look at a New Year as the opportunity to reflect on what we want in life and to make plans for changes in the coming year. Is it time for you to consider a SHIFT in your life? You are a leader in a demanding position of responsibility. Though that can be very grati...

      Krister Ungerboeck               Your Words Can Create a Highly Engaged Team  The words you choose are having a significant impact on the people you lead. Are you choosing words that will inspire others to follow you? Struggling leaders should examine their words, assess where they come from and how they may be putting a damper on the people who follow them. Just like everyone else, leaders default to the words of t...

      Dr. Donna Hicks               Are You Valuing Dignity in the Workplace? As a leader, what is more important – dignity, respect or trust? Actually, that is a trick question. While respect and trust must be earned, dignity is inherent in every human being. It does not need to be earned. So the big question is, are you respecting the dignity of everyone in your organization? When leaders don’t treat others with dignity...

      Richard Sheridan               Imagine the Possibilities: Less Contemplating, More Acting We all begin our careers eager to change the world, ready to bring all the amazing things we have to offer. And then we are hit with quality issues, blown budgets, and missed deadlines and realize this isn’t going like we imagined. Plus, we are ‘led’ by a management that has instituted a gazillion rules designed to reduce our s...

      Dr. Kristen Sosulski               Data Visualization is a Valuable Tool for Leaders Understanding financials is a critical responsibility of the manager and leader. You also must be able to communicate the value of those numbers effectively. Too often presentations will be planned to educate, inform and gain consensus, but end up being dull, boring and confusing. Not enough time is spent giving thought to the value...

      Sharon Sayler               What Affect are You Having on the Response You are Getting? Do you understand what your body language is saying? While we often think of the eloquence of a great communicator, the best communicators are even more aware of what they don’t say, at least with words. They use non-verbal communication intentionally and understand how body language is perceived. Body language also comes into pl...

      Jakob Heuser               Train Managers Before They Become Bad Bosses You are losing good talent because of bad bosses. It’s a 50-year old problem that isn’t correcting itself. So, why aren’t you training them? Budgets don’t seem to be the issue, as many who can afford it simply choose not to. Each organization needs skilled managers at every level, yet nearly all disciplines promote top performers into management...

      Christy Hoskins             Is Your LinkedIn Profile Glam or Spam?  How effectively are you using LinkedIn as a platform to fulfill management needs, to seek career opportunities, or both? When used correctly, LinkedIn can be a partner to help advance your career in numerous ways. It can be used to find great candidates for open positions.

      Jeffrey Shaw               Are You Speaking Their Lingo? As a leader, clarity of communication is critical, yet have you ever felt like employees weren’t hearing you? Understanding the emotional triggers of employees is important for a leader. Have you wondered why sales aren’t as high as you expect? You are probably not speaking the correct lingo. Tuning in to the language of your ideal customer means you are speak...

        Dave Sanderson               Do You Want to be in Control or In Charge? It was a normal day. He flew a lot, yet wasn’t supposed to be on this plane. From experience he knew there were multiple engines, so the fire on the wing didn’t excite him. Now he can say he was on the plane that was the “Miracle on the Hudson.” While floating in the river, his first instinct was to get the heck out of there! And then he hear...

        Michael Lombardi               What the NFL can Teach Leaders in Business Whether you love sports or not, there are a lot of leadership lessons to be learned. You see, sports aren't just the games. Sports provide examples of excellence, persistence, tenacity and leadership. Any sports team that has been remembered over time has exhibited all of these characteristics and more. The players must surpass others i...

      Ken Larson               Leaders Must Get in Position to be in Position Are you in position to be in a position for success? As a leader, you have the ability to see the big picture and to think strategically. Often that type of thinking doesn’t lend itself to easily being able to see the first step toward getting to that picture. Maybe you need to hire a new COO. Contacting a head-hunter and looking for a replaceme...

      Chip Conley               Wisdom is One of the Most Valuable Components of Leadership Wisdom is one of the most valuable components any leader can possess – good judgment, unvarnished insight, and emotional intelligence are some of wisdom’s attributes. Do others consider you authentic, willing to say what is on your mind, and candid without sugar-coating insight? The people who choose to follow you want your shared ...

      Jennifer Fondrevay               Understand The Human Side of Mergers & Acquisitions  We leaders throw the term around like we’re high financiers – “M&A.” The reality is that mergers and acquisitions aren’t only about the numbers. There is a human impact, and too often that isn’t taken into consideration or it is not given the consideration that is due. You think nothing is going to change? Think again. It a...

      Don Barden               Do You Share the Traits of the Top 1%?  In every aspect of life, there seems to be that Top 1%, those who have achieved success beyond what is considered ‘normal.’ While we all work hard and try our best, we wonder what makes them ‘so lucky.’ Were they born with it? Did they have special parents or someone in their life who taught them? Did they know the right people? The answer is no to any...

      Lucas Conley               The Importance of Long-Term Thinking in a Short-Term World Business (and careers) seem to have been relegated to short-term thinking. A three-month view for profits is the norm, so decisions are made to support the next bottom line. What happened to valuable long-term thinking? Is that even done any more? Yes, it is. And make note – it is usually done by the most successful leaders and bus...
