Managing Marginality The Internal Consultants Dilemma
Internal and external consultants use many of the same techniques and tools, do similar work, but face very different challenges. Internal consultants work in a unique position. Their job role is to consult to the organization for which they work. It is not easy to be, at the same time, a part of an organization and function as detached and independent. Each position on the consulting continuum places different pressures on the internal than the external, making them either more or less a part of the organization. Couple with those pressures that the internal has a boss whose role is even more clearly linked to the organizational structure, politics, and rewards structure, and you have a set of forces effectively pulling the internal in different directions. Managing this position becomes paramount to success for the internal.
Smart Women Create the Right Internal Environment
Creating the “right internal” environment is essential if we are to truly live a life on purpose. Your internal environment is your self-talk, the internal conversations you have with yourself. Stop and think for a moment about the conversations you have with yourself: Do you send positive messages or negative messages? Is your internal voice filled with possibility or doom and gloom? It’s really important to take some time to evaluate yourself in this area and change your thinking.

Companies Develop Leaders? 10 Ways to Know
Is your company paying enough attention to internal leadership development? Here are 10 ways to determine if developing the next generation of company executives is a strategic objective.
“Third Generation Leadership” – “3G Leadership” or “Leadership v3.0”
First Generation Leadership ("G1 Leadership" or "Leadership v1.0") was typified by a command and control approach in which hierarchy ruled and the leader was "right". Second Generation Leadership ("G2 Leadership" or "Leadership v2.0") was typified by a reward for conformance / non reward or punishment for non-conformance. Again, hierarchy ruled and the leader was largely "right". Third Generation Leadership ("G3 Leadership" or "Leadership v3.0") is typified by engaging followers both with what they are doing and with the people with whom they do it. In this article Doug Long introduces both the concepts of leadership generations and shows the distinctions between them.
"Arrogant Al": The Condescending Internal Customer
Most of us have ‘internal customers' - people in our own company who rely on us to provide them with some level of service or support. For many of us, working in administration, human resources, IT, training, etc., providing internal customer service is our primary role. Unfortunately, just as there are difficult external customers, there are also difficult internal customers. One of the common situations we see are internal customers who simply appear to not respect the roles of their internal service providers. They come across as condescending, dismissive, arrogant and sometimes plain rude. It is a recipe for a poisonous workplace atmosphere. What do you do?
Business Leadership Skills
Not that a business is born with leadership skills. It is true that certain leadership traits that quite a few others seem to them. However, there are others that can be developed. There are many leadership programs that teach us different leadership style will also help us realize our business leadership skills and have some improving. However, short of the best leadership training effort comes from rising above the rest and put personal gain before the collective interests.
The Case for Bringing Outside Planning Consultants In
Internal strategic planners clearly have their place in the corporate planning process. The deep insight and internal understanding of the inside strategists are hard to replace. Yet, with inside knowledge comes the side effects of political swaying, less objectivity, and “planning as usual.” Many of today’s successful organizations effectively combine an internal view with an external view to bring about a holistic approach to planning.

Is "leadership" dead?
"Leadership" now seems to be a catch-all term (a bit like "communication"). That being the case, has the time now come when we should be considering whether the term "leadership" has lost its impact and whether we need to radically rethink the whole concept by moving out of all the traditional concepts like "servant leadership", "situational leadership", “contingency leadership”, “leadership habits” etc that are based on attitudes and behaviours?
The Proper Setup of Internal Links
Internal links are hyperlinks that point to different pages on a website. Setting up internal links within a website gives the site more exposure and credibility. Websites that have a lot of links that point to multiple internal pages within that site creates a more legitimate look and feel.
