“Thoughts While Shaving™” from Len Fuchs #971

Celebrating our 19th year of weekly Common Sense Leadership Principles emails.

1. When things go wrong, start searching for the reason with increasingly larger concentric circles around your own desk.

2. As a leader, you must go after the facts; the facts won’t come to your desk.

3. An organization does well those things the leader checks.

4. Providing good direction to the organization is the responsibility of the leader, not vice versa.

5. Leaders tolerate honest mistakes, this develops initiative and loyalty.

6. Successful leaders believe they are the coach of a winning team.

Just a few thoughts to help you maintain focus this week.

Warm regards from Arizona,
Len

I'm at Amazon Coffee at PTT HQ and see their mission statement. Is it inspiring, does it give me, the customer, that confident feeling of a company who's a business leader? Not sure. It was refreshing to see this posted on their wall for all to see.

Celebrating our 19th year of weekly Common Sense Leadership Principles emails.

1. Leaders understand that change is the essence of life.

2. Leaders create an environment where others can succeed.

3. Leaders do not take credit for others success.

4. If the leader isn’t on board, change efforts are doomed to failure.

5. Many times leaders find success has more to do with determination than with genius.

6. Some leaders find it tough breaking away from their daily routine of work and getting out into the real world.

Just a few thoughts to help you maintain focus this week.

Warm regards from Arizona,
