| Article Title :: "Leaders" Versus "Cheerleaders" |
| |
| Everyone wants to describe themselves as a leader. Everyday, new books on leadership come out on the market. Leaders are seen everywhere – business, society, and, of course, politics.

Where thermometers measure the weather, thermostats change it. This is the perfect analogy in my opinion. While thermometers stick their fingers in the wind to see what direction the wind (or crowd) is going, the (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Vampire Meetings and How To Slay Them |
| |
| Meetings can be like mythical vampires – sucking the life out of
intelligent and creative people. And sucking the funds out of
businesses. Unfortunately, there are too many of these meetings in
business today.A UCLA study said the “typical” meeting includes nine people. If you
have nine people in a meeting room for one hour, you have consumed
one entire workday – plus some.What about the dollars associated with this? Say the average salary of
meeting attendees is $40,000. Their hourly pay is about $20.00. Nine
people for one hour costs $180.00. Not bad, right?But consider the implications. People don’t spend just one hour a year
in meetings. (read full article) |
