The Best of... Leadership Tips

·  Build good will with your people by engaging them in personal chats when you and they have a few spare minutes. This personal attention time will serve like a cushion the next time you have to keep the "niceties" to a minimum. - Executive Leadership January '06

·  Make better decisions by devoting more time to understanding the viewpoints of those who don't agree with you and less time on those who do. That way, you're much more likely to challenge preconceived notions that could lead you to the wrong choice. - Executive Leadership March '06

·  Cultivate your most vital business relationships by making one phone call for every five e-mail messages to those contacts. They require a dose of personal touch every now and then - Why Business People Speak like Idiots, Brian Fugere, Chelsea Hardaway, Jon Waeshawsky

·  Make every person you meet feel exceptional by being consistently energetic and attentive. Adopting an upbeat tone makes you stand out as a leader...and takes no more time than being glum. - Fun is Good, Mike Veeck, Pete Williams

·  Increase your visibility by agreeing to view presentations at other people's locations, instead of your own office. - Leadership Lessons Learned from Middle Management, Sheldon Berkowitz

·  Avoid the stress that procrastination brings by starting a high-stakes task today, even if you invest only five minutes. - Good Stress, Bad Stress, Barry Lenson

·  Force-feed your creative thinking by following science fiction writer Ray Bradbury' formula: Read something every day that stimulates your imagination. "If you stuff yourself full", says the authorof more that 500 novels, plays, screenplays, short stories, TV scripts and poems, "you will automatically explode every morning like Old Faithful." - Imaginators, www. Acop.com/creative

·  How much progress are you making? List three or four biggest problems you face today. Then ask, "Are they the same challenges I faced a year ago?" If so, figure out what has gotten you stuck and act decisively now to roll the old problems out of the way. - Lost and Found:23 Things You Can Do to Find Personal Freedom, Arthur Caliandro

·  Short-circuit team paralysis by empowering more people throughout the ranks to make decisions on their own ... especially during times of growth, when you need action. - Lessons from the Top, Thomas Neff, James Citrin

·  Uncover people's core values and goals by asking these "blue sky" questions:

  • What would you do if your R&D budget were tripled and you could develop any product you wanted?"
  • What would you do first if you were made CEO of this organization?
  • What would you do tomorrow if you won the lottery and didn't have to work anymore?"

- National Institute of Business Management
