The following is a guest piece by Will Wise. Have you ever been in a meeting and wondered, “Why am I here?” Or worse yet, have you ever lead a meeting while others quietly asked themselves, “Why am I here?” If so, my guess is there was one thing missing that could have made a profound difference in how you or others felt about a meeting. Something that not only does away with the ambiguity of why this meeting is taking place but also increases connection, belonging and trust.

It’s time to rethink the role of competition. The idea that “it’s a dog-eat-dog world” no longer holds true, and cut-throat competition doesn’t benefit anyone, including yourself. In business, the lines between competitors and customers have become increasingly blurred. Netflix competes with Amazon and at the same time is their customer.

Using resistance to lead effectively. If you truly understand resistance, you seldom need to deal with it: You manage its cause before it even manifests itself! Understanding resistance. The leader understands the source of resistance and deals with it adequately. Some typical sources are: It could be that the team member simply doesn’t like you. Not that it’s your task to be liked by everyone, yet it could be a veiled message that there’s insufficient trust or that they don’t feel taken seriou

As I enter my 31st (!) year as a business leader, there are just a handful of leadership lessons come back to the forefront for me, time after time (after time). This one always bubbles back up to the top of the list. Leaders HAVE to stay out of the Comfortable Middle, and practice Full Spectrum Management, to have any real chance to reach for greatness.

Guest post from Kimberly Davis : I couldn’t believe it was the same woman. As she shared her presentation, she was warm, charming, gregarious, with a whip smart sense of humor. In less than two minutes, she had the audience in the palm of her hand, laughing so hard we were wiping tears from our eyes. How could this be the same woman who sat in front of me all day with the blank eyes and furrowed brow—who kept her back to me so much of the time?

As a millennial, I love to read about leadership. I love learning different leadership styles, hearing from different leadership gurus (Some personal favorites at this time: Cy Wakeman, No Ego ; any blog post by Scott Mautz , and Art Barter’s webinars ). However, I am not yet a leader. Well, not exactly. I have not been given a title. I don’t manage a team.

With employee disengagement remaining at very high levels in America and globally, and growth in significant new scientific findings that shed light on conditions necessary for human flourishing, it’s time to reconsider management theory and our approach to maximizing the performance of individuals and organizations. As such, my colleagues and I recently submitted our paper titled “Theory C: Connection Culture as a New Theory of Management” to an award-winning leadership journal.

Leadership lessons from The Book Of Mistakes I recently had the pleasure of reading The Book Of Mistakes. Skip Prichard, my friend and a leadership guru himself, penned this fiction book with success principles woven throughout the missive. The Book Of Mistakes tells the story of a young man named David. David is stressed out and losing hope. Then a chance encounter with a young woman (no, this is not a romance novel) changes the course of David’s life.

Where does that idea come from? How did you arrive at that conclusion? Is there a citation or a paper that will substantiate your thesis? Are experts always right? Should laymen be suspected? Is opinion different from fact? If something is a fact today, will it be true in 2 years, 5, 50? If the fact is true, is it the only truth? I had a conversation (many actually) this week about what I derogatorily referred to as the cult of the expert.

Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees. What these engagement programs actually do is create and reinforce feelings of victim-hood and leave employees unprepared to adapt to real changes that are necessary for the health and profitability of their enterprises.

If you pay any attention at all to sports, you’ve probably noticed that the Golden State Warriors are a really good basketball team. So good, in fact, that four of their five starters are playing in the NBA All-Star Game next month. With Steph Curry and Kevin Durant leading the team and (my idol) Steve Kerr coaching, Golden State is so good that it’s been reported that other teams in the league are suffering from Warriors Derangement Syndrome.

There’s been a lie going around the leadership circles. The lie is that leaders are loners. They don’t need anyone else. They can do things all by themselves. The truth is, leaders need others. Leaders are better together. While I was out for a nighttime winter run with my dog Lok, I began to think about how I was a better runner because he was with me.

I am just back from China. Some business, some sightseeing/vacation. I am writing this on the flight (of course cannot post until I hit live internet). I find long flights are excellent times to think and reflect. China has come a long way. It is smoggy but not as bad as it was. The automation in the factories has definitely increased a lot.
