Why A Leader Should Always REVIEW

It is important for us, to remember, merely because someone has been elected, appointed or ascended, to a position of leadership, does not mean, he is either super - human, flawless, or always correct! True, smart, committed leaders realize, recognize and embrace that fact, and therefore, are committed to examining and re - examining ideas, plans, programs, concepts, etc! What someone does, in order to make certain, he performs, as well as can be, and focuses on doing the right thing, is what often differentiates relevant, reliable leaders, from the rest of the pack! This article will use the mnemonic approach, to consider, why it is so important, for a leader to constantly, and consistently REVIEW.

1. Reasoning; reasons; rationale; relevant; realistic: How often is someone willing to objectively, and introspectively, examine, the components of his reasoning, in order to see if he has considered all relevant information, ideas and concerns? Is the rationale, rational and logical? Are the facts used, to determine one's options and alternatives, realistic, or what has been recently coined, as alternative facts?

2. Emphasis; evaluate; examine: Are you emphasizing the right, most relevant, essential items, ideas and components/ concerns? What metrics, etc, will you use, to evaluate every step of your process, as well as your personal performance? Are you ready, willing and able, to objectively examine, what needs to be reviewed thoroughly?

3. View; vital vision: What motivates someone to commit to the often - tiring, stressful, challenges of effective leadership? What makes your vital vision, vibrant enough, for others to buy into? Is you personal point of view, focused on service, or something less heroic?

4. Investigate; ideas; ideology; intent: How fully will you investigate ideas, opinions (of others), needs, concerns and priorities, to discover what needs to be emphasized and addressed? Is you ideology in sync with your group's heritage and mission? Will you examine each idea's intent, thoroughly, fairly and without prejudgment?

5. Empathy: Understand, being a leader, means representing others, and their needs, concerns, perceptions and priorities! In order to do so, you must, first, be willing to, discover what these are, which means perfecting your listening skills, paying attention, and always proceeding, with empathy!

6. When; what; which; who: Which priorities are the most essential ones, to address first? When will you begin, and how will you utilize your timetable, in order to consider effectiveness and efficiency? Will you personally address a particular issue, or will you effectively delegate responsibility, to the best people available? If you delegate, who will you select, and what makes that person the best individual?

Everything does not always proceed as originally planned, and that is why, great leaders, always develop contingency plans, so they are ready to install Plan B, if necessary! However, to do so, a leader must be prepared, and constantly REVIEW and reconsider, without procrastinating!

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...
