| Manufacturing executives said it didn't apply to them. (They were dead wrong.) Software development executives said it didn't apply to them. (They were dead wrong.) Business & technology services executives said it didn't apply to them. (They were dead wrong.) Sales executives, managers and professionals KNOW FOR SURE it doesn't apply to them.

Who’s really to blame when your employees fail to perform?
| |
| Human beings are funny. When placed in a position where they are expected to perform in a certain way – like an office – most people will do exactly what is expected and not much more. If expectations are low, they tend to do less. But when expectations are high, those same people will to rise to the occasion.
Applied to today’s managers, we see this effect play out time and again in organizations large and small: A manager who expects little of his or her employees also clearly thinks little of them. As a result, employees give little in return. On the other hand, managers who expect a lot of their employees tend to treat their employees better and, in return, get better performance. |

How Your Procurement Practices Affect Your Sales and Brand
| |

Kicking the email habit
| |
| Even the high-tech giants such as Google and Intel are recognising that constant bombardment with electronic communications can lead to stress, and are seeking ways to protect workers, starting with their own staff.
In this article, John Niland describes an experiment carried out at Success 121 during May 2008, which had a dramatic effect on the productivity of the team.

Supervisory Skills
| |
| Supervisors are responsible for not only meeting corporate goals, they are also responsible for bridging the gap between upper management and front-line employees. Those supervisors that take this task seriously and utilize their supervisory skills are the ones that have a dramatic and positive effect on the overall business as well as their staff’s performance and behavior.
Are your supervisor ready for the challenges ahead? Do they need training? |

Taking Charge of Your Life

Anyway this month I had a couple of instances of what I will call “The Vacuum Effect”.
This is where in companies or organisations you have a key employee leaving with a consequential effect on the rest of the business. |
