10 Commandments of Leadership-Coaching and Providing Feedback
| |
| Coaching is defined in many ways, terms and contexts. For our purpose, coaching is a stream of communication from the leader to team members for the purpose of maintaining and improving performance.
Often times, coaching is viewed as an athletic function and visions of Bobby Knight, Dean Smith, Tom Osborne or Lou Holtz are summoned. The model provided by the athletic version of coaching is not far off from the business model but there are some distinct differences.
One of the comments that has often been expressed about coaching is the lack of time to devote to this activity. This is a classic symptom of a leader being too involved in doing and not involved in leading. When debunked this comment is really more about a lack of comfort in coaching skills than it is about available time. |

The Demise of and Hope for American Capital
| |
| What is the root cause of the financial crisis? It's not money. Money is a symptom, not a cause. The cause is deeper, more pervasive and more troublesome. Thinking that "capital injection" is the solution is like pouring gasoline on fire, hoping to extinguish it. Think again. |
