Taking a break from McGonigal’s book today because I seem to
have misplaced it. Oops. Anyway, some good ideas have crossed my desk
today – all very worthy for sharing.
Geoffrey James has a great piece on Inc.com describing eight
attributes that define an “extraordinary” management philosophy. Usually, I find these kinds of lists to be
either so high level that you can’t actually follow them without doing all the
work yourself or so low level that they don’t apply to any business other than
the one in the article. But this list
does a pretty good job of giving good, generalizable, and actionable
insight.
There still is a large gap between advising leaders to “inspire
employees to dedicate themselves to the success of their peers and therefore to
the community–and company–at large” and actually doing this. But it is more actionable than the title of
this attribute, which is “A company is a community, not a machine” which is the
usual claptrap.
