Xmas wish …… Who would be your Guru of your choice if you were granted an extraordinary opportunity to spend a week with that person? (Current or from the past)

Wednesday, December 10th, 2008

No ……. I am not a Gennie nor Santa but is time for reflection and to re- energize ourselves for the new year.

So …….. Who would be that person ?

My choice would’ve been ” W.E. Deming ”

Happy Holidays to all

What are the most important characteristics of a respected and successful leader ?

Sunday, December 7th, 2008

Recently I read an article defining the followings as the most important characteristics of a successful and respected leader.

(1) Ethical
(2) Inspirational
(3) Innovative
(4) Dedicated
(5) Knowledgeable

Needless to say that they’re all important …… but , If you had to “reprogram” your own mental OS (operational system) to improve your own professional aptitude, how would you input it ? (by importance)

It was very hard to decide about my sequence but here they are ….

3,2,5,1,4

Please fell free to explain or just giving the number sequence.

The CEO / President “They don’t need me anymore syndrome”

Tuesday, December 2nd, 2008

What do you do if you’re lucky (and more than good) to reach a point where everyone is performing and achieving your corporate goals? The business is profitable, customers, shareholders and employees are happy.

That’s when “They don’t need me anymore syndrome “kicks in!

OMG ………. What do we do now? What are your thoughts ?

Perhaps it is time to find employers that can help you to get there.

Remove your firefighter suit and grab the visionary one!
