Seize Your Leadership Day: You And Your Team
by Miki Saxon
Some of the articles I’m sharing today refer to CEOs, but the advice in them can be tweaked to apply to any level in both professional and personal arenas.
First, Steve Tobek, who writes The Corner Office for BNet offers some great thoughts entitlement, which he says has been around for decades. The cure is empowerment backed by accountability. Bull’s-eye, Steve!
Next is a great offering from McKinsey on re-energizing your team. It talks about how to overcome fear, denial and the need to learn and change—emotions that teams at all levels are facing.
By now, everybody knows that President Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize, But Wally Bock at Three Star Leadership saw the award from a different perspective.
Finally, an article in Success caught my eye when it made a case for using volunteering to connect with stakeholders. “Several experts actually claim that incorporating volunteering into the corporate culture is the management tool of the 21st century.”

My pleasure, Wally, HR isn’t god, but they make choices, give them outlier opportunities and pass by a lot of talent.
