The Overnight Success

Work days, work nights, stick with it a few decades, learn like crazy, get lots of practice, and try lots of methods…and you to, can be an overnight success.

Are you "Remarkable"?

Is what you do worthy of someone making a remark about?

Make it so.

A Body in Motion

A body in motion tends to remain in motion until acted on by an outside force.

If you keep going the way you’re going, where will you likely wind up?

What or who is your “outside force”?

Should you invite one in?

What difference is your company here to make?

Why would your organization even matter to anyone?  Without you they can just go somewhere else, right?

Or not right?

Why?

The High Wattage Leader

Does your example, message, vision and influence shine on every employee you have – or just the few people that you are around each day?

Does it matter?  That depends on how many employees performance you care about.

How to drive your company standards down

Be too weak to impose discipline for team members who ignore or don’t comply with the values and standards your company must have to accomplish it’s goals. 

If you put up with it, you’ll get more – and worse.

What would a great leader do with YOUR company?

Seriously, if you had to take a leave tomorrow, and a great leader came in to run your business, what would they do?

…with your positioning and strategy?

…with your people?

…with your facility and equipment?

…with your training program?

Be that great leader.

Resume (CV)

A one-sided story of people figuring out how to make a living, figuring out what they like to do, of bosses who are jerks, and human drama – all imprinted on a written work history.

Bigger Goals = More Problems

When you set the next big goal, you must expect more and bigger problems. 

Problems aren’t a big deal in themselves.  But when you don’t expect them, or get upset when they come, or ignore them and hope they go away by themselves, then problems can be problems.

Leaders know that a worthy life/cause/goal is an incessant stream of problems.  And they are really good at identifying them early and fixing them fast.

Talent Scout

At the mall.  In your old yearbook.  At the party.  At the dock.  Anywhere.  Everywhere.

They’re all around you.

Find the best people to be on your team.

That’s your job.
