Are You a Leader People Can Trust? - 2 views

  •  
    Joel Peterson, a Robert L. Joss Consulting Professor of Management at Stanford Graduate School of Business implies that the reason many leadership attempts eventually fail can be attributed to a lack of trust. "Trust is more powerful than power itself," he remarked in a recent article. Thus whether your title is CEO, HR Director, or Sales Manager, your power as a leader does not lie in the position itself, but in your ability to build trust with those around you.

    Great article, Joe! Key lesson - "As you strive to value one another and hold each other accountable, the trust you gain will enable unlimited space for innovation, collaboration, and success as a leader."

If You Want to Convict Someone, Forgive Them | James Ferrell - 2 views

  •  
    When we see others as people, we see their hopes, needs and fears, and this willingness to see and understand informs everything we do with them. When we see others as objects, on the other hand, we give ourselves license to treat them inhumanely. In order to feel justified, we don't allow ourselves to consider the positive in them.

Does your job match your personality? | Big Think - 3 views

  •  
    "Your personality will partially determine how good you are at your job, especially if you have a complex job that requires more than rote behavior. So are you and your job a good fit? If you're a creative person who is open to trying new things-openness being one of the Big Five personality traits-you're more likely to succeed at jobs that require novel solutions over efficient ones. On the other hand, if you're conscientious-another Big Five personality trait-you're likely to be better off in a management or administrative position."

Servant - 3 views

I don't know where being a servant came into disrepute. It is the refuge of a philosopher, the food of the lazy, and, properly carried out, it is a position of power, even of love. (John Steinbeck)
