Leadership Quote

タオ チューン

,

The boss drives his men; the leader coaches them. The boss depends upon authority; the leader on good will. The boss inspires fear; the leader inspires enthusiasm. The boss says “I”; the leader “we.” The boss fixes the blame for the breakdown; the leader fixes the breakdown. The boss says “go”; the leader says “let’s go!” ~Gordon Selfridge

,

Leadership is solving problems. The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help or concluded you do not care. Either case is a failure of leadership. ~Karl Popper

I used to think that running an organization was equivalent to conducting a symphony orchestra. But I don’t think that’s quite it; it’s more like jazz. There is more improvisation. ~Warren Bennis

Peter Drucker Quote

タオ チューン

,

The leaders who work most effectively, it seems to me, never say “I.” And that’s not because they have trained themselves not to say “I.” They don’t think “I.” They think “we”; they think “team.” They understand their job to be to make the team function. They accept responsibility and don’t sidestep it, but “we” gets the credit ... This is what creates trust, what enables you to get the task done. ~Peter Drucker

Create a questionnaire with Google Spreadsheet

タオ チューン

This method is not new but you should create a questionnaire by using Google Spreadsheet. It's useful and help readers to answer easier. Actually, I don't like people send me a questionnaire by attaching it in the e-mail as an Excel or Word file. It takes me a lot of time to answer and in many cases everyone doesn't like to respond.

Leadership quote

タオ チューン

Never hire or promote in your own image. It is foolish to replicate your strength and idiotic to replicate your weakness. It is essential to employ, trust, and reward those whose perspective, ability, and judgment are radically different from yours. It is also rare, for it requires uncommon humility, tolerance, and wisdom. ~Dee W. Hock

Leadership quote

タオ チューン

The chief executive who knows his strengths and weaknesses as a leader is likely to be far more effective than the one who remains blind to them. He also is on the road to humility—that priceless attitude of openness to life that can help a manager absorb mistakes, failures, or personal shortcomings. ~John Adair
