| Article Title :: The Permissive Environment is the Suspect |
| |
| The permissive and participatory conduct which most
employees take for granted, eventually escalates into the
more serious assaultive behavior commonly referred to as
employee on employee workplace violence starts with
innuendos, a bad word, or simple jokes taken out of context
or used to inflame another. Initiation of a proper and
thorough investigation is possible under the auspices of a
Threat Assessment Team. Banter between employees if left
alone by supervisors becomes tense and often results in a
more aggressive response. The truth of the matter is that in
most cases this banter is perceived as harmless shop talk.Supervisors often believe that this healthy shop tal (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Christmas Carol Coaching - Help to Get Ahead at Holiday Time! |
| |
| I've always been fascinated by situations where art imitates real life and right here is a perfect example, which links Christmas and business & personal development.If you want to read about a serious piece of dodgy people management (bordering on potential litigation); a man all adrift with the world and himself; shown how to do it by three visionary experiences (and with a brilliant example of supportive team-building thrown in); and then the ultimate Christmas 'shift'? These are all brilliantly described for your pleasure in a seasonal read of 'A Christmas Carol' by Charles Dickens.Here, Dickens brings out all of these wonderful examples and takes us through the l (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Crisis Management Essentials - How to Communicate Effectively During a Crisis, Emergency or Disaster |
| |
| A crisis, emergency or disaster can happen at anytime and anywhere.Just ask the residents of Darwin in Australia's Northern Territory.Imagine a late afternoon on Christmas Eve thirty years ago, and looking outside to see your street cloaked by heavy low cloud and your windows being rattled by ever stronger rain squalls and wind gusts.Two-hours after an eerie tropical sunset another check shows the winds are picking up sheets of corrugated iron and hurling them around like autumn leaves in a light breeze.By midnight, as Santa was meant to bring the children of Darwin their presents, the damage is becoming serious.

| Article Title :: 5 Awesome Actions of Highly Creative Leaders! |
| |
| How many times have you wondered why you are unable to
"think-out-of-the-box" more often?We are all products of our environment and our backgrounds
usually prevent us from viewing situations with the unique
eyes of our personal experience.However, the leaders who think "out-of-the-proverbial-box"
do so by incorporating what I like to see as a,
Strategically Wise Synergistic Process of Creation.These creative thinkers apply their own kinds of
action-oriented logic to problems to help them find new
wisdom, discover opportunities or see the facts in
different ways.In a word, truly creative types act differently, in ways
that we'll call "Logical Action-Steps". (read full article) |

| As a small business owner, entrepreneur or independent
professional, it's important to make plans. It's also
important to have the time to let things happen. Only you
can decide what is to happen in your life. Here is a method
that may work for you. You have nothing to lose.Start with that yellow pad; you can transfer to computer
later on. Tear out eight pieces of paper and label each
as follows: Finance, Health, Professional, Community
Service, Personal/Fun, Spiritual, Relationships (All) and
Education. If you have other titles that you prefer, use
them. Give this suggestion a chance; it's just that, a
suggestion; a manageable breakdown of all life's topics.First, ask y (read full article) |

| Article Title :: How To Delegate for Fun and Profit |
| |
| Ah, the wretched pain of delegation. It comes easy to some people. But others – you know who you are – would rather undergo a double root canal than hand over a task and walk away from it.The good news is that this is a disease you can recover from. And the better news is that when you choose to give up control you benefit along with the delegatee.As with most things in my life this knowledge was hard come by for me. I had just received a huge promotion to a project which was mind-numbingly large. The first day on the job I asked the assistant of the woman I had replaced why he thought she had had difficulty. He said that she had been unable to delegate; had given h (read full article) |

| Meriwether Lewis set the stage for the Corps of Discovery’s success before one single “employee” had been hired. From the outset Lewis and Clark engendered a communications culture that brought in the right prospects, then kept morale high and increased the productivity of those eventually hired.More important, Lewis’ communication culture not only outlined the day-to-day duties of Corps member, it imbued “employees” with a sense of mission and meaning.He ruthlessly searched for just the right recruits. Lewis sought the strong, skilled and eager, rejecting the weak, ignorant, and unmanageable. And through properly communicating his needs, he was able to get the p (read full article) |

"But you don't understand!" exclaimed the manager, "this new initiative is vital for our team. If it doesn't work we could all be out of a job!"
"Uh-huh... Really... Explain to me again how this new initiative is so different from previous initiatives that were also going to cost me my job if they didn't work" asked the long-term employee.
"Look; we have to do this. Can't you see?"
"Why do we have to do this? No-one has explained to me yet 'why'."
And therein lies the fundamental problem of most management initiatives. They l (read full article) |
