On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.
This website is about our career health. To leave this site to read today’s post on my home health website, click here.
All are entitled to be dynamic in life, few grant themselves permission.
This post starts off spiritually but quickly addresses the business leadership application.
Pastor Ennis who recently celebrated 50 years as a Priest, caught many of us off guard yesterday at Mass. He said:
“We are called to be signs of contradiction.”
To be a thought-provoking apostle.
Immediately thought of the business leader’s job.
To be a though-provoking leader.
To rattle the cage of everyone she leads.
Because if employees keep thinking the same way they always do and expect consistent improvements, or even a breakthrough, then we don’t need that leader.
We don’t need that leader because that leader isn’t leading.
