A few weeks ago I was talking with Phil Gerbyshak over at Slacker Manger and he described a new leadership approach he’s developing (no details, it’s still in stealth mode). I mentioned that its success would be very MAP (mindset, attitude, philosophy™) dependent.

Phil thought it would be interesting to compare the two methods.

But as I explained, they aren’t comparable, they work together. People can’t implement any method unless their MAP is synergistic with it. And most management and leadership training assumes that everyone has a certain kind of MAP and that’s that.

But that’s not true—MAP is as individualistic as snowflakes—no two are identical.

Once Phil understood, he asked me if I’d like to do a short article for Slacker and explain MAP to his readers. Needless to say, I jumped at the chance. The result is MAP Your Way to Successful Management.

And I promise, as soon as Phil takes the wraps off his new leadership methodology I’ll pass it on. Better yet, I’ll post an interview with the great man himself!

Have you checked out your MAP lately?
