African Economic Performance in 2004: A Promise of Things to Come?
Against a backdrop of sustained global growth and high commodity prices, Africa has experienced its best economic performance in many years. While recent economic performance is not merely driven by favourable external factors, African economies still lack proper “shock-absorbers” to withstand internal (e.g. drought and floods, political instability, HIV-Aids, etc.) and external (e.g. volatility of commodity prices and exchange rates) shocks alike. They remain strongly vulnerable. In this context, creating the conditions for the development of indigenous drivers of economic activity (starting with a thriving local private sector) is a top priority.

Lesson #5: Stay Focused
“I am a very focused person,” says Combs. “Right now I'm in a real, real strong creative zone. You know, musically I'm in that zone. Fashion, designer-wise, I'm in that zone. I'm in a zone right now. I'm like Jordan in the fourth right now, ladies and gentlemen.” Between all his business ventures, court battles, marathon runs and his family, if it weren’t for Combs’ ability to focus on one important thing at a time, he would have succumbed to the pressure long ago.

Where's the profit zone? Your company has covered its fixed costs for the year and is now selling in the profit zone! Yet company planning, personnel decisions and holidays monopolize the last 65 selling days of the year. The focus should be on realizing your true revenue potential in the last quarter of this year. This is where the profit gold lies.

Your Selling Comfort Zone
You're probably in one now. You might not realise it and you're very unlikely to admit it, but the reality is you're very likely to be in your very own Comfort Zone. How can I say this? Especially when I don't know anything about you - your profession, interests or background. The answer is simple. Nobody stays outside their comfort zone for very long - we leave it for long enough to achieve what we need to achieve then we scuttle back for cover. So, what is a Comfort Zone?

Zoar in Your Zone

Third Generation Leadership - Developing 3G Leaders (II)
G3 Leadership requires another element - it requires the ability to manage down those areas of the brain that are not helpful in leader-follower interactions while simultaneously managing up those areas of the brain that are helpful. I refer to these as "Red Zone" (not helpful) and "Blue Zone" (helpful). Where the leader has his or her brain's locus of control is critical because only G3 Leaders are able to engage everyone with whom they interact: a G2Leader can engage only some and a G1 Leader can engage only a few. As I indicated in my last article, the question is, of course, "How do we manage down the red zone and manage up the blue zone?"
