Management Quote of the Week

"Managers must manage" Hal Geneen
This is a simple quote that says a lot. It doesn't matter what the economy, the market or the competition throws at us we must accomplish our goals. We must mange to hit our goals in any situation. This is taken from Geneen's great book Managing.

Leadership Thoughts

The older I get and the longer I am in business, the more I realize that how people feel is far more important than how they think. If you want to persuade people, you must engage their emotions. This is not a new idea as evidenced by this week's quote from President Theodore Roosevelt:

"People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care."

As leaders we must always consider the emotional as well as the economic consequences of everything we do.

Keep Smiling, Keep Leading!

Thanks Jim Busch
