Retaining talent, developing strong leaders and building a pipeline for the future is vital to the success of every organization.

Festina Lente - "urgent" or "important"?
In my mentoring I am surprised at how frequently I need to remind executives, managers and entrepreneurs of the need to concentrate on what is important. Concentrating on what is “urgent” invariably leads to crisis management with the result that the organisation degenerates into continual crisis. Because the “important” gets pushed back things get out of control. To change the metaphor, the bush fires rage uncontrolled because proper fire prevention was not done in a timely fashion.

How to Manage Yourself Effectively Within Time
Most people will have been on a ‘Time Management’ course if they have worked in a corporate environment and understand the importance of getting the most out of your day. However it is important to remember that no one can actually manage time – You can only manage your activity because the clock is going to keep ticking away no matter what you are doing. This article covers some key methods to help you structure your working pattern so you focus on the most important thing and that is running your business profitably.
Are you an Effective Team Leader?
Understandably, most businesses are focused on nurturing the relationships with their clients, but running a successful business is also dependent on effective management and leadership skills. So, ask yourself, are you an effective team leader?

Self Esteem Manager
Managing by setting setting standards for activity and productivity is great. Managing by creating an environment that supports growth in self-esteem is better. Holding people accountable, catching people right away doing things right, telling them how great they are until they believe it, and making fewer promises and keeping all them is all it takes. Simple, and certainly not easy.

Being Consistent and predictable: One of the most important leadership characteristics
Whatever management or leadership training you take, whether it is a management workshop, a leadership webinar or books on management or supervision, you must own how important predictability is for a leader and practice st to be as consistent as you can possibly be. There are three main reasons. First, we live in unpredictable and uncertain times. When people go to work they want as much certainty as they can get. Second, leaders must be disciplined and if you can’t control your own behavior and attitude, how can you expect the people that follow you to control theirs? Third, and the reason that will probably cause you to make a change if you are not currently consistent, being inconsistent wastes your employees valuable time. They spend time worry about which way you are going to jump and this is time they could be working.

Is Your Organization Effectively Deploying the Human Capital It Needs to Compete?
Most organizations understand that effective management and deployment of assets can mean the difference between success and failure. But many organizations fail to consider their most critical asset – human capital. A recent study by McKinsey & Company revealed that “A” performers tend to be 50-100% more productive than “C” performers. Clearly, identifying the “A” performers can enhance an organization’s performance. So, how does an employer identify the “A” performers, and once identified, how does an employer retain them?

Giving Effective Feedback
If there is one area that gives both managers and employees difficulty it is the need to give and accept effective feedback. While giving feedback is not about dishing out criticism, this, however, often proves to be the case when managers find themselves under pressure.
