Michael Hyatt Intentional Leadership
Trust is to an organization what oil is to a car engine. It keeps the moving parts from seizing up and stopping forward motion. But trust is not something you can take for granted. It takes months — sometimes years — to build. Unfortunately, you can lose it overnight. Some people seem to have a knack for building trust.

Even the most sophisticated psychometrics and people analytics have yet to make leadership development more science than art. Competence, character, creativity and charisma remain difficult qualities to quantify, let alone cultivate. Growing effective leaders is challenging work. But maybe we're measuring the wrong things.

Fire Chief
Linda Willing writes: In a recent column on why firefighters may not consistently use their PPE, I stated that firefighters in 2016 know the dangers of the job and therefore have no reason not to consistently use proper safety gear. A friend who is a former fire chief commented on this article by saying, "Maybe they should know the dangers. But that doesn't mean that they do know, or that they act on that knowledge appropriately."

Many people hold an oversimplified idea about what leadership means. Some think it's just a matter of guiding others to complete a task. Others confuse it with motivation. In truth, leadership is a complex blend of competencies and capabilities. It means communicating and empathizing, directing and modeling, teaching and mentoring — and, above all, trusting and serving.

There's that one person on your team — the bad apple who has nothing positive to say, riles up other team members, and makes work life miserable. If you can't fire him, how do you respond to his behavior? What feedback do you give? How do you mitigate the damage he inflicts?

Harvard Business Review
The world tends toward continuums. We order everything from temperature (cold to hot, with tepid in the middle) to wealth (poor to comfortable to rich). It's tempting to think leadership also follows a continuum, one anchored by bad and great, with good somewhere in between. This deeply rooted belief reassures us that leadership follows a predictable pattern, and that through hard work and experience, one can progress along the drawn line.

Great Leadership
Lorraine Grubbs writes: The U.S. Army War College, in the post cold war years, described the future business environment in four words: volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity — code name: VUCA. In my work (building loyal employee cultures), I define VUCA through a new filter: value people, unparalleled communication, curious mind and accept responsibility.

Traditional oil spill materials don’t work in the rain. Clay turns to muck. Rain renders white pads ineffective. Spilltration products are engineered specifically to help first responders control oil/fuel spills in the wettest conditions and prevent them from spreading. And Spilltration takes up 75% less space than traditional sorbents.

Terry St. Marie More Human Leadership
"Terry my boy, what do you think?" I had never been so prepared to answer that question, delivered by my boss in his typically theatrical way. I had been thinking about this question for a better part of a week. We were working on an important project, and there was a problem. A problem that demanded some original thinking.
