The
Answer that No One Wants
Jan
2012 | Presenters search the world for the answer to this
question. “How do I overcome my nerves and be calm?”
Oh, that’s easy – prepare and practise. But
– nobody wants that as an answer. In fact, it may
be difficult to find a more unpopular answer.

A
productive workplace and the value of a purposeful network
Oct
2011 | Verna Allee argues that a social network,
in and of itself, does not have a purpose as a network
per se. What we need to consider are purposeful networks
which on the contrary, have identifiable roles and interactions
with specific outcomes.

Giving
Feedback
Giving
feedback across generations is simply good leadership
by
Avril Henry
Peter
Drucker in a book titled The Leader of the Future
(1996) observed that “there may be born leaders,
but there surely are too few to depend on them. Leadership
must be learned and can be learned.”
My personal belief after working in Human Resources for
14 years is that leadership is a set of learnable behaviours,
which can be adopted and modelled by observing leaders
who exhibit ethical behaviours and strong values –
qualities that “followers” admire and respect...
