Love and leadership the love that dare not speak its name
| |
| It’s commonly said of leadership, ‘They don’t need to like you. They do need to respect you.’ But, what about the other way around? Do leaders need to like the people they lead? One school of thought goes further and says if you don’t love the people you lead, you’ll never be a great leader. In this short article, leadership author Phil Dourado explains

Are You an Egomaniac? Ten Questions with Steven Smith
| |
| Steven Smith has spent the past ten years exploring how great leaders use ego differently than everyone else—how they work, think, collaborate, and who they are. The result of his work is a book he co-authored with David Marcum called egonomics: What Makes Ego Our Greatest Asset (or Most Expensive Liability). His work has been featured by The Dallas Morning News, The Arizona Republic, The Irish Times, Cincinnati Enquirer, and Le Figaro. The topic of this interview is one of paramount importance to anyone who wants to change the world: Ego. Too much? Too little? How much is just enough? |

Hire People with Organizational Grit!

All progress, therefore, depends on unreasonable people” - so said the famous Irish playwright George Bernard Shaw. For organizations seeking progress and change there seem to be too many reasonable people about! |

Is Personal and Business Coaching Alive in Ireland?
| |
| A common concern amongst Coaches in the current climate is the lack of data outlining whether or not people are looking for Coaching. If people are looking for Coaches; what type and where? Unfortunately, there is no empirical data to suggest whether or not the coaching industry is growing or if coaching is being embraced by the Irish public and businesses. |

One Man And His Word
| |
| About five years ago, my father passed away. I still think about him almost every day, but especially this time of the year when his anniversary rolls around. He was well known and liked in the community where he lived with my mother in New Jersey. Fiercely proud of both his German and Irish ancestry, he always walked in the Annual West Orange St. Patrick’s Day Parade wearing a green tie and a German hunting hat. With my sister and brothers, I will sometimes reminisce about the small idiosyncrasies that made him our dad... |

Your Past does not Equal your Future
| |
| Your future, along with your personal and professional goals, are not as fragile as you might think. Failure is often the fertilizer that makes future success blossom. Recently, I had this principle confirmed to me via nine Irishmen from the 19th Century.
It seems that in 1848 as Ireland was attempting to break away from England, nine young Irish rebels were captured and sentenced to death. As they were brought before the queen for punishment, Queen Victoria could not bear to have them executed, so she sent them to England's prison colony in Australia.

Horace A.W. Tabor, \"Silver King\" and Baby Doe Tabor
| |
| Horace Tabor is a true "rags-to-riches-to-rags" story of Colorado's Silver King of the late 1800s. Though it shows the pioneer spirit that made this country great, it also gives us lessons in persistence, dedication, devotion and determination to transcend all obstacles to reach a specific goal in life -- that ever-elusive "pot of gold (in this case 'silver') at the end of the rainbow. Because in March we celebrate St. Patrick's day, and the fact that Horace's wife, Baby Doe Tabor, is of Irish heritage, makes this a most fitting article for Mazon's March 2011 newsletter, Building Bridges. Please enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed researching it. |

Taking Exception To America
| |
| President Obama famously said he believed in American exceptionalism in the same way Brits believe in British exceptionalism, and the Irish believe in Irish exceptionalism, etc. Of course, if everyone's exceptional, no one is... which I think was the president's point. There's nothing special about you Americans! Sit down and shut up!... |

Thermometer Manager or Thermostat Leader?
| |
| The late 19th century Irish playwright, critic, and social reformer, George Bernard Shaw, had a lot of useful things to say about personal effectiveness. A few of his comments have hung on my mirror or been posted in my day planner over the years. This one speaks to a core management-leadership choice we all have; "The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends upon the unreasonable man." |
