How Leaders GUARD Their Organizations

Perhaps the greatest obstacle to effective leadership, is being able to consistently handle the often - numerous obstacles and challenges, which stand in their path! In addition to the many necessities and assets, one must possess, it is often the responsibility of a leader, to also protect his group, from both internal, as well as external forces, which stress and strain, its existence! Doing this often requires a high degree of finesse, balancing providing a quality experience, with assuring the organization, will stay - the - course, and remain true to its principles, heritage, mission and vision? If you are to serve as a leader, how will you protect your group, and remain, on GUARD?

1. Generate goodwill; growth: Organizations which fail to grow for any significant period of time, often tend to stagnate and diminish! What will you do to foster growth and excellence? Will you proceed in a cooperative, buck - stops - here manner, ot will you resort to blaming and complaining, thus creating an adversarial atmosphere? Guarding one's group means one must do all he can to generate goodwill and inclusiveness!

2. Useful; usable: Are your goals, plans, and actions, useful? Will your ideas be effective and usable, or merely, empty rhetoric?

3. Attitude; aptitude; attention: Before you become a leader, be certain it is your calling, and something you truly want to do! If so, proceed consistently with a positive, can - do attitude, and be careful, to pay attention to anything, which might impact your results, etc!

4. Relevant; reasonable; rationale; responsible: Leadership is not about doing something, but rather doing relevant things! Are you being rational and reasonable, in your ideas and expectations? Can you, and are you willing to articulate your ideas and rationale, in a way which will educate and motivate? Will you accept personal responsibility, and hold yourself responsible, for delivering on promises and needs, and doing your finest?

5. Delve deeply; deliver: Think beyond the obvious, because many times, essential issues, concerns and needs, lie below the surface! Will you, therefore, commit, to consistently delve deeply, and discover what must be achieved and addressed? Will you persevere and persist, until you fully deliver on your promises, and protect your organization, to the best of your abilities?

If you want to be a leader, you must be ready, willing, able, and prepared, to consistently GUARD your organization, and its best interests! Are you one of the rare individuals, who will be a true, real leader?

Kecemburuan semacam ini

Jacey melemparkan cangkir kopi kaca, (Mug Kaca Berinsulasi Dinding Ganda Zwilling), melintasi dapur. Itu menghantam dinding yang baru dicat (Behr, Sweet Coconut Milk, M230), dan hancur menjadi triliunan kepingan. "Inilah yang telah kamu lakukan pada kami!" teriaknya, suaranya berderak karena cemburu, kuku jarinya yang terawat (Orly Cold As Ice - perawatan bernapas + warna) menusuk udara ke arah tumpukan puing-puing kaca. Blayne menundukkan kepalanya, dagu keduanya mengenai dadanya terlebih dahulu. "Maaf, sayang," gumamnya. "Maaf?! Maaf!" Dia mengambil sekotak Wheat Thins dan mengangkatnya di atas kepalanya. "Tolong jangan melempar yang lain!" Blayne memohon, berdiri dari posisi setengah duduk di bangku logam di dapur. Ini adalah bangku yang sangat tidak nyaman (Bangku Meja Grejsi dengan Bingkai Logam), tetapi Jacey menyukai cara logam itu memantulkan sinar matahari di sore hari, jadi itulah yang dia beli. Dia mencondongkan tubuh ke arahnya,...

Thirteenth step

My grandmother attends the church basement on Tuesday evenings. I saw him there among the metal folding chairs and antique coffee pots, his figure trembling under the fluorescent lights that buzzed like dying insects. She wears the same powder blue pullover she was buried in, the one with pearl buttons that catch the light like little moons. Others can't see it, of course. They just feel a sudden chill as they pass by where she is, or smell the ghostly smell of her Shalimar perfume mixing with the smell of burnt coffee that never leaves these rooms. But I see clearly. He's been following me to AA meetings for three months since I got my first white chip after five years of being back in the bottle. "Your grandmother was my godmother in 1985," old Pete told me after tonight's meeting, hands shaking as he poured a seven-pack of Sweet'n Low into his coffee. "Toughest godmother I ever had. She saved my life." "Mine, too," I said, not specif...
