Remarkable Leadership and Personal Brilliance
Posted at 11:24 AM on Wednesday, November 21, 2007
Late last month my friend, Jim Canterucci, author of Personal Brilliance, interviewed me for his weekly podcast. There are four installments, and this week, the third one, focuses on focus. I believe it is pretty good (OK, I'm biased). Specifically it focuses on: • The paradox of Personal Brilliance focus • How being contrarian can lead to innovative leadership • How timing comes into play • The ability to shift from professional to personal to family • How reconnection can help maintain focus • Seamless balance • Elastic focus • How infatuation can block innovation • Perspective as a component of focus • Content vs. process focus . . . all in less than 15 minutes. You can listen to it, access the other episodes, or even listen to the full interview here. Also posted in Creativity, Leadership, Learning and Training. Labels: interviews, podcasts

The Gray Wave and a Leadership Opportunity
Posted at 3:06 PM on
 This graph was displayed in this weeks' Kiplinger Letter . You can see from my scan that I circled it - recognizing how important this information is. For most people this won't be that big of a shock - we know that the baby boomers are getting older. What might be a shock is how big this is (1 in 5 Government workers over 55?) and how pervasive - affecting all sorts of industries and organizations.
Most people talk about these sorts of figures and talk about the coming shortage of leaders - and these numbers certainly lead us to that conclusion - a larger percentage of the the older folks are probably in the leadership positions. Yes, on a national (and western world) scale, there will be shortages.
But the shortages don't have to impact you and your organization, but you likely still have time. . .
- time to identify future leaders.
- time to build ways for your more senior folks to mentor the future leaders. - time to provide future leaders opportunities to lead projects or take other developmental assignments. - time to build an effective leadership development process. In other words, time to change the the fortunes and futures of your organization, regardless of the macro trend.
But the time to take action is now - before the gray wave catches you in the undertow.
