Where Dan lost me was on point #4 – Teams Decide by Consensus. In recent months I have observed a decent amount of politically correct discourse on the topic of teambuilding and equality. And as odd as it may sound, one of the greatest impediments to building productive teams is practicing management by consensus.
Whether you like it or not, your success as a CEO will be largely tied to your teambuilding ability. Not only do great CEOs understand how to recruit a top executive team, but they also understand how to build cohesion among team members through collaboration while addressing specific situational and contextual needs.
Show me a CEO with a bad attitude and I’ll show you a poor leader. CEOs with bad attitudes will not only fail to engage their workforce, but they will quickly find themselves shown the door as their attitude’s impact on performance becomes visible to the board. Why then do so many CEOs appear to have a bad attitude?
The articles should have been written on the topic of poor leadership. Let me be as clear as I can - the phrase &# toxic work environment&# is code for bad leadership, becasue a toxic culture simply cannot co-exist in the presence of great leadership. From my perspective there is no such thing as a toxic asset.
From my perspective, the issues surrounding conflict resolution can be best summed-up in three words…&# Deal With It. &# While you can try and avoid conflict (bad idea), you cannot escape conflict…The fact of the matter is that conflict in the workplace is unavoidable.
If you’re looking to benchmark your leadership ability the following self examination will give you a baseline to build from. If you believe you possess a fully developed competency in a section give yourself 10 points. Want to find out? If you possess no competency whatsoever give yourself 0 points. Section IV: Tactics.
This type of behavior is proof certain that the entrepreneur is not being effective at leading, teambuilding, delegation, leveraging process and a variety of other highest and best use activities for CEOs. Priority number two is teambuilding and talent management.
Posted on November 22nd, 2010 by admin in Miscellaneous , Rants , Talent Management By Mike Myatt , Chief Strategy Officer, N2growth As much as some people won’t want to hear this, “ help &# is not a dirty word. I have long made it a practice to encourage others to help me succeed.
Great leaders lead all people under their care, not just those who agree with them. As much as some don’t want to hear this, there is an “I&# in team because teams are comprised of individuals. If you crush the individual character and spirit of those who form your team, how can your team operate at its best?
So, in today’s post I’ll share two a few tips on deciding which tasks, and to whom, the art of delegation should apply… As a CEO it is critical to develop a keen understanding of your value to the enterprise, and to further develop an awareness of activities that are dilutive to said value.
Creating a framework for decisioning, using a published delegation of authority statement, encouraging sound business practices in collaboration, teambuilding, leadership development, and talent management will all help even out the uneven. Where there is disagreement there is an inherent potential for growth and development.
What do you think when you experience poor design in your life? Largely due to the iPod’s strong integrated design qualities it is the dominant brand in its class, commands a pricing premium, and has developed an extremely loyal and satisfied customer base.

Posted on September 27, 2010 by Michael Ray Hopkin Titles are an interesting concept. The “manager&# is the person who makes sure people follow the processes (good or bad) that have been put in place.
