There Are Leaders, And There Are Those

Hearing Is Listening To What Is Said. Listening Is Hearing What Isn't Said.

Organizations Should Say And Do The Things They Actually Believe.

The Worst Leaders Are The Once That Think They Have To Know As Much Or More Than The People Who Work With Them. The Best Leaders Are The Once Who Know That Their Employees Know Hell Of A Lot More Than What They Know And Willing To Admit It Whilst Expressing The Value Of Their Employees.

If You Look At The Average Age Of A Company On The Dow Jones Index, It's Something Like 35 Years Or Younger. In Other Words... Success Is No Indication Of Longevity.

If Our Leaders Are To Enjoy The Trappings Of Their Position In The Hierarchy, Then We Expect Them To Offer Us Protection. The Problem Is, For Many Of The Overpaid Leaders, We Know That They Took The Money And Perks And Didn’t Offer Protection To Their People. In Some Cases, They Even Sacrificed Their People To Protect Or Boost Their Own Interests. This Is What So Viscerally Offends Us. We Only Accuse Them Of Greed And Excess When We Feel They Have Violated The Very Definition Of What It Means To Be A Leader.
