SYSTEM
SHORTENS THE ROAD TO A GOAL
-----------------------------------------------
Having an intelligent
plan is your first step to success.
With a plan, you know
where you're going.
You'll know what
progress you're making.
And you'll have a pretty
good idea of when you can expect to arrive.
Meticulous planning will
enable everything you do
to appear spontaneous to
other people.
Your
goals
can
only be reached through the vehicle of a plan.
One in which you
fervently believe,
and upon which you will
vigorously act.
There is no other route
to success.
What
do
you
want to achieve or avoid?
The answers to these
questions are your objectives.
How do you go about
achieving your desired results?
The answer to this will
be your strategy.

Initiative
by
Dr.
John

Maxwell
It's
cliche
to
say that every journey begins with a single step, yet it's
true. Leaders don't wait for everything to be perfect before they
move forward. They don't wait for all the problems or obstacles to
disappear. They don't wait until their fear subsides. Leaders take
initiative.
Leaders
know
the
secret of momentum: once you take the first step and start
moving forward, everything becomes clearer and easier. If momentum
gets strong enough, problems begin to take care of themselves and new
opportunities arise. But the benefits of momentum only come into play
once a leader takes initiative.
As
leaders,
why
are we sometimes timid or tentative when we should be
taking action? In my experience and observation, there are six root
causes of our procrastination. more.

The Ubiquitous Tool
One might get the impression from our writings
that goals and goal setting are a panacea. Not true! Goal setting is a
tool, a tool that can be used in almost any situation or circumstance
to get someone, or a group, from where they are, to where they want to
be. Whether the desired outcome is an increase, decrease, improvement,
modification or change of any kind, goal setting can help.
  
One
of the most challenging issues our clients face is that of
leader/follower behavior. Being the humans that we are, we take our
attitudes and habits with us wherever we go. Ergo, what we learn and
practice at home and in our social domain, we carry into the workplace.
Frequently, this creates difficulties that impact the smooth
functioning of our businesses and the workplace relationships required
to lead, manage and follow appropriately. The converse is also
true.
Learned workplace behavior will be with us on the outside. This applies
to constructive and destructive attitudes and behaviors.

We're kicking off a public Showcase Leadership
Development
program in Mid-October. Five conference sessions of
2½
hours each will be held in the Plymouth Meeting/Fort Washington area of
Philly.
The focus of this process is the mid level management
group, though everyone can benefit. If you have one or two people in
whom you would like to invest to ensure their future performance for
your organization, contact
us for more details.
