  1. Tempted to tell your employee to do something differently? First see if there's a way to show, not tell.
  2. Thanks Wally RT @wallybock: Fascinating Leadership folk I follow @EdMuzio @LDRLB @Stephenlynch @therainmaker @davidkwaltz #
  3. Summarize what you heard, ask if you're right. Then (only then) ask,"are you just venting or are you asking my advice?" ow.ly/1MYtGT
  4. This month in "Resonance," how to get someone to change his/her behavior conta.cc/K1Bqom
  5. If it'd be faster to do everything yourself, you're doing management wrong.
  6. "Business Culture" is just precedents from the past, carried bc they worked back then. Don't be afraid to set new ones that work now.
  7. If you think you don't have anything to learn from your employees, that's an iceberg warning. If you're sure, you're on Titanic.
  8. Make sure your most important goals are also the ones most visible to your employees.
  9. If you can't speak compellingly & engagingly about your purpose & output, don't be surprised if your employees aren't compelled or engaged
  10. Say: "You can probably expect that I'd see that differently, but let's agree to disagree there and return to our main topic."
  11. Avoid drama! Today! Now! Quick, before there are dire consequences! OMG! :) ow.ly/1MzUAx
  12. Think you shouldn't have to thank employees for doing their jobs? By that logic your kids don't have to be polite to you, either
  13. One on one is still a meeting, treat it with the same discipline: agenda, notes, commitments made & kept
  14. Stick to your purpose. Don't let anything distract you.
  15. Thanks Wally! @wallybock: Fascinating Leadership folk I follow @EdMuzio @LDRLB @Stephenlynch @therainmaker @davidkwaltz #ff
  16. Thanks! RT @shawmu For the wisdom of working in the 21st century, I turn to @edmuzio @MeghanMBiro @LauraGoodrich #FF
  17. Persecutor, rescuer, victim... If you're playing any of the roles, you're being counterproductive ow.ly/aZmzb
  18. I'll trust your judgement in all things during the interim. Carry on! "Sin Boldly" as Martin Luther said. --my Mentor/Partner b4 vacation
