Saturday Odd Bits Roundup: Learn From The CEOs
by Miki Saxon
Although these three links are aimed at executives, I think you’ll find what they offer applies to everybody.
First is a Forbes article looks at what some CEOs keep in their office and explains how those items reflect the corporate culture—the premise holds true for managers at all levels and even for non-management.
Next is an interview with Richard Anderson, chief executive of Delta Air Lines. He offers some great career advice along with insightful comments on what he looks for when interviewing. Useful no matter which side of the desk you’re on.
Finally, the HBR Editor’s Blog talks about Myth of the Tireless Leader. The post has several links that illustrate and prove that lack of sleep does not yield smart actions, intelligent decisions or innovation. In fact, it’s just the opposite. Who knows, maybe after reading it you’ll stop bragging about how little sleep you need and get the rest required to be truly productive.
