Life Has A Windshield
You will spend much more time behind your car's steering wheel looking through the windshield than you will spend looking in the rear view mirror. That is not to say that you shouldn't take time to glance into the rear view mirror to check for danger so you can negotiate the road ahead safer and with more efficiency. Now compare that to your day-to-day life, do you have a tendency to look behind you and see only your failures and challenges; or are you like an experienced driver who checks it periodically for safety purposes but is totally focused on what lies ahead for you?

Which Side Of The Road Am I Supposed To Be On?
Years ago, my honey, Robin, and I planned a trip back to his homeland, Australia. Part of that trip entailed me driving. I knew that they drive on the opposite side of the road than Americans do. What I did not pay too much attention to was the fact that the driver’s seat is on the other side of the car.

Seven Questions for a Reality Check
Every so often, it’s important to assess the status of your life. Time moves along and you’re busy doing stuff. By taking the time to reflect on what’s going well – and what’s not – you can turn the steering wheel of your life and head in a different direction.

Training is a Journey Not a Destination
When I was thinking about this article, one of the things that got me wondering was why we put ourselves through training, through learning. I was over 30 when I learned to drive first and I remember praying that the driving instructor would not turn up, that he would forget me, that I wouldn’t have to go through that awful vulnerable vacuum of being a learner…I couldn’t believe that I would ever get to the stage when I could actually hold the steering wheel with one hand and change the gears with the other.

Steering Committees Increase Program Success
Developing a strong governance process requires cross-functional alignment on marketing decisions. Implement a Sales & Marketing Steering Committee to formalize your strategic planning, prioritization, decision-making, investment, and performance measurement processes.

Talent Development and The Wheel of Becoming
In the Buddhist belief, the Wheel of Becoming is a representation of life, death, and rebirth. The energy produced by one’s past actions (karma) are paid forward into future outcomes. Practitioners can determine their place within the concentric circles of the wheel, which delineate the various realms of being (see the graphic above). In talent management terms, think of the Wheel of Becoming as transitioning from one level of personal development to rebirth at a higher level. There are many models of human development (see Jane Lovinger’s “Stages of Ego Development”, or Robert Kegans “The Evolving Self” to name but two). One that fits neatly with the concept of Wheel of Becoming, however, is “The Leadership Pipeline” by Charan, Drodder, and Noel.

Recruit and Hire the Right People for Success
Your people are, without a doubt, your greatest asset. As Jim Collins so eloquently put it in his book, titled Good to Great….”To be successful you have to get the right people on the bus with you”….and as I like to say, you need to be the person with the steering wheel in your hands.Most small businesses get in the habit of hiring people when they need them TOMORROW, rather than recruiting people all the time and having a pool of ready to go prospects...

Choosing Our Poison or Choosing to Let Go
I am running late for an important appointment and speeding down a two-lane highway. Suddenly I come up behind a garbage truck lumbering along well below the speed limit. The highway is full of oncoming traffic, curves, and hills so I can't pass. If I start to get angry, pound the steering wheel, and really work myself into lather about this, who is in control of my emotions at this point - a garbage truck or me?

Focus and Context: The Hub of Leadership
It wasn't by accident that we chose to arrange the timeless leadership principles in the shape of a wheel. Of all the principles, there is one that is central, one from which the others emanate, much as spokes radiate from the hub of a wheel.

Now is the Time
I love the hopeful feeling of having a new calendar and fresh plans laid out in front of me. But of course the New Year doesn’t wait long before euphoria subsides and it begins testing your resolve, persistence and plans. Whether your goals for 2012 were written in indelible ink or simply mumbled to yourself during your commute, the universe somehow seems to know about them and begins delivering the challenges. At some primal level, we know that our plans will only take wing if we get both hands on the steering wheel and are not shy about turning it in a direction we want to go. So, if starting a business is on your list of resolutions, I have some thoughts to share with you.
