Seize Your Leadership Day: CEO Communications
by Miki SaxonCEOs move markets. A look, a gesture, a word.
And what the experts recommend for them will work for you.
Forbes has an article how to control CEO rage, but the best part is the accompanying slideshow highlighting the anger of a few of the most famous and infamous—those who lied, cheated and stole their way into history.
The Washington Post calls it the “Silent Language of Leadership,” but ignore the ‘leadership’. What is described is the silent language of influencing people, whether you are a CEO, Bernie Madoff or parents struggling to get through to your teenager.
Sometimes the boss decides it’s time to leave, but there’s a right way and a wrong way to do it—Sarah Palin did it the wrong way. See how it should be done; this is good information no matter what level you’re on.
Finally, how much disclosure should be required of the CEO of a publicly traded company? It’s a hot topic since Steve Jobs surgery was announced as a done deal.

Thanks for the link to that Forbes article talking about Palin’s resignation. I think the last paragraph is true though… we’ve all just gotta see what her real motives are. Who knows, it could be totally worth it and she knew exactly what she was doing!

Not to insult you or other readers, but I can’t stand Palin and I sincerely hope that she has permanently cut her political throat. Sorry if I sound harsh, but the thought of her second in line to run the country gave me nightmares for months.
