How to be a high performance leader
The subject of leadership is the quintessential conversation of our generation, particularly at this time of great social change, commercial and political unrest. I believe leadership, [being a leader] to be a character trait, not simply a title you bestow upon a person or entity, without significant reason and evidence over an extended period of time. True 'leadership' is the ability to inspire action through ones own actions. This feat is not as easy to achieve as the definition suggests. Easy in theory - but ever challenging in practice.

The new approach to skill development tends to be more overtly political in that its primary focus is to support collective action among groups of the poor and, particularly women, in order to achieve specific economic, social and political objectives. Self-help associations (SHA) have become one of the main institutional mechanisms for achieving this. There are two main types of SHA- work-related (i.e. trade or occupation) and community-based.

Solving the Problem or Finding the Guilty
We have developed into a blaming society. Mom blames the older siblings when problems arise in the household. Teacher finds someone to blame when things go out of control in the class room. Management and unions blame each other. Political parties use blame in the extreme, and it is disruptive, subordinating national goals under political aims. Which describes your leadership: Do you actively search for solutions to problems or do you spend your energy searching for the parties to blame?
Helping Supervisors
The first line manager, or so-called "Supervisor" has a particularly tough job. This level gets the brunt of worker unrest but also takes heavy flack from upper management. This article deals with some ideas to lighten their load and provide some more recognition for what they are doing.

The Political Failures of the Baby Boomers, and the Challenges for the Next Generation
The Boomers' failures are distributed uniformly from Right to Left. But given the liberal-leaning Boomers' original rise from the 1960s counterculture, their weak-kneed absorption into the partisan political establishment is most ironic. The generation that fought for free speech and the right to question authority now enforces strict political correctness and quashes political dissent from their tenured posts in academia.

As we explored in Astronology last year, many organizations were projecting an optimistic 2011. The sense was that the economy would be on the mend, inflation low, and the stock market on the rise. But much has happened over the past few months which may run contrary to these hopes - from the unsettled Arab world, skyrocketing oil prices, and labor unrest in America’s heartland.
Poltical Savvy and Employees
Political savvy has little to do with one’s place in the hierarchy. All employees can use political savvy regardless of their position in the organization.
