Taking action on any plan always includes adjusting it as the world keeps changing. Remember the adage, the difference between a goal and a dream is a plan? It's action that makes the plan work.

Without action, all the plans in the world are nothing; without action, there are no decisions, no commitment, and, certainly, no outcome. The very act of planning is make changes as necessary to still achieve the desired outcome. Regards, Jonathan Frye Blog: <a href="http://www.leadershipjot.com" rel="nofollow">Leadership</a> Hi Miki,

I said that what's required in leading varies with the situation and the people. I don't see it as a matter of safe vs. edge/risk and I certainly don't see leadership in terms of rewards. Not me.

The edge of leadership unlike the safety of leadership increases the risk and the reward. If I take what you have written to heart - it does appear that it is you who are making one size fit all.

Leading isn't a one-size-fits-all function—people and situations vary and the approach needs to fit both.

There are lots of ways attempts are made - half hearted, ass backward and so on. But daring to do caries for me that this is a best effort being taken in the face of risk and danger.

You're right on about doing more and doing it with passion, then evaluate the results and tweak your approach as required. Casey, I had a great time talking with you and I’m glad I was able to help.

Very valuable time for me. Thanks for being available. Great post. I agree totally. We spend too much time not doing. As you said on the phone today, "Successful leading is in the doing and not in the planning." We need to go do it more. And do it with passion. Miki – Thanks for the coaching session today.
