Words for Leaders

Here's some good advice from "25 Management Lessons From the Customer's Side of the Counter" by James H. Donnelly, Jr.

"Management and leadership are exercised outside the office, not inside the office."

I am a huge fan of Errol Flynn movies. These idealistic films portray the world as it should be, rather than how it is. There is a line from "They died with their boots on" that I love. As his regiment is about to go into battle Flynn's character is asked "Where will the General's headquarters be located sir?" to which Flynn replies "At the head of the attacking column!" Take Errol's advice, the best way to know what is going on and what your people need is to place yourself in the middle of the action.
