“Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it’s thinking of yourself less” -C. S. Lewis Is humility teachable? Is humility developed by nature or nurture? Am I really audacious enough to write a post on teaching humility? Apparently yes. Let me add a caveat. I don’t have humility handled. I have the best intentions, but [.

By Mike Myatt , Chief Strategy Officer, N2growth. How many times in your career have you witnessed someone say, “that’s impossible – it simply can’t be done.” Perhaps you’ve even been guilty of uttering such a phrase yourself. Here’s the thing – leaders don’t accept impossibility as a valid thesis. If you think I’ve lost my mind, or that my optimistic nature has crossed over into a state of irrational exuberance or delusion, I’d encourage you to read on as I challenge the logic of impossibility.

I’ve seen and heard (and written) about a lot of great leadership lessons, but there’s a short list of them that have really “stuck” with me. They’ve since become an essential part of my leadership practice, and my life. I’m pleased to share these “greatest hits” with you, and hope that you to will find them as sticky as I have. “ An ounce of demonstration is worth a pound of explanation “ - Emil Liebling.

According to the 80 20 Rule, 20% of your team is carrying 80% of the load. If that’s the case, 80% could do substantially more. Have you come to except the Pareto Principle as a given? Of course, your performance management structure counts these slackers to make for a nice bell curve.

By Mike Myatt , Chief Strategy Officer, N2growth. Marissa Mayer is a case study in what NOT to do as a new CEO. While she’s clearly under intense pressure to pull Yahoo out of what many see as a death spiral, making rookie mistakes is not going to help her cause. Being a new CEO of a struggling enterprise is a challenge for any leader, but it’s also not a role every leader is ready for – shame on Yahoo’s board for botching the selection process – again.

I’ve written several times about one of my favorite leadership lessons, “A Short Course in Human Relations” (click on image at left for a PDF of the slide). Today my thoughts are focused on one part of that lesson, the “6 most important words”, triggered by the recent firing of Groupon CEO Andrew Mason. “I admit, I made a mistake” Mason publicly admitted his failure when he published his resignation note on Twitter ( and also threw in, for good measure

By Mike Myatt , Chief Strategy Officer, N2growth. Have you ever wondered why organizations tolerate dysfunctional leaders? The answer is dysfunction is so prevalent it’s often not even recognized as problematic. Many corporations just desire leaders to go along and get along more than they desire them to lead. It saddens me to articulate this next thought – corporate leadership is rapidly becoming an oxymoron.

You can feel it. And it’s not a very comfortable feeling. There’s this presence hovering over you, watching your every move. There’s tension in the air, and it permeates your thinking. Every action, every word on a page, and every utterance is tainted by that tension. They get over analyzed, over scrutinized, over thought and over processed by that tension.

In 1977 I wanted to dance like John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever. That scene where he did a solo performance to the Bee Gees’ “ You Should Be Dancing ” was mesmerizing. I HAD to get a three piece suit of my own and give it a try. Travolta was leading the way towards making disco a huge music phenomenon, and I was an eager follower.

News Flash – innovation, growth and development cannot occur by pretending we live in a world that has long since passed us by. Leading in the 21st Century affords no safe haven for 20th Century thinkers. Old, static, institutionalized thinking will gate the pace of forward progress faster than just about anything. If you want to expose yourself as an out of touch, dated leader, keep trying to address today’s issues and opportunities with yesterday’s thinking.

Leaders, if they are to live up to their role as those who “show the way”, need to do a lot of talking. However, there’s a trap door lurking on that speaking platform, and if we fall in it, we can take the teams we lead down with us. The trap is simply this: We do more talking than focused listening. I know, it sounds pretty simple.

The interesting part is that the pro Steve Stricker gave Woods a 45 minute putting lesson the night before the tournament started.
