		<title>What Motivates Us: The Surprising Truth</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today I saw this video by Daniel Pink. It is fascinating information about what motivates people. Leaders would be wise to understand this concept and see how they can put things into play in their own organization. I hope you will take a few minutes and watch it and then add your comments below.

&#8220;The Heart Mender&#8221; is a book that I recently read as a part of my participation in the BookSneeze program by Thomas Nelson Publishers. It&#8217;s a pretty cool thing to do, and if you have a blog and you like to read, you might check it out. In exchange for writing a review on a [...]

		<title>Leading Through Change</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Warren Bennis is quoted as saying &#8220;Managers are people who do things right, while leaders do the right thing.&#8221; I have always thought that was a powerful statement. Both well-intentioned, and yet generally with very different outcomes.
All around us, the world is changing. It can be unsettling. Our country is in a financial crisis. Today&#8217;s [...]

		<title>Pay it Forward</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Yesterday on Twitter someone asked &#8220;what&#8217;s your favorite movie?&#8221; I don&#8217;t usually respond to many general questions on Twitter, but this happens to be someone whose blog I follow so I responded, &#8220;Pay it Forward.&#8221; I simply love that movie. That discussion started me thinking about random acts of kindness and how they change not [...]

		<title>Leadership: Juggling Priorities</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Leaders spend a lot of time focused on goals and how to achieve them. We often find ourselves running in ten different directions (on a good day!) and at the end of the day, not really sure what we have accomplished. Consider this quote:
“What comes first, the compass or the clock? Before one can truly [...]

		<title>Leadership: Do You Walk the Talk?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love the Simple Truths products and have used them a lot in working with leaders. This morning received the video below in my email. I thought it was worth sharing with you. 
As leaders, it is so important that we &#8220;walk the talk&#8221; in our lives. Leaders are watched all the time to see [...]

		<title>People Don&#8217;t Care How Much You Know</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This saying by Theodore Roosevelt is one of my favorites: &#8220;People don&#8217;t care how much you know until they know how much you care.&#8221; 
Good leadership is caring about the people you lead. The reality is that nobody really cares how much knowledge you have, but they do care about how you make them feel. [...]

Have you ever had one of those days, or weeks, when you&#8217;re the leader and you work to motivate the folks around you, yet nothing you do seems to work? Or something you tried just fell flat and didn&#8217;t work at? I think we have all had those times and they sure aren&#8217;t fun. What [...]

It&#8217;s funny how life works sometimes. Last week right after I wrote this post, I came across a great example that related to leadership in some of my reading. I wished I had seen it before that post, so decided this morning it&#8217;s worth doing a &#8220;part two&#8221; to that post, just to share this [...]
