How to Kill Employee Motivation
Managers are at a loss as to how to motivate the people they supervise. It seems that nothing they do makes any difference. What does a lack of motivation look like? Lethargy is a primary characteristic. These employees generally have no ambition and no goals. They appear to be more interested on the clock on their desks. Demotivated employees tend to run in packs, too. It’s rare to find one person who is like this, while everyone else is upbeat and excited about working for the company. This is important, and we’ll come back to it a bit...

You may be one of those who at the end of the year reviews your goals, notes which ones you achieved and which ones you didn’t, and from them creates new resolutions. Maybe you’re even among the few who actually keep them. But if you’re like most people, then you slipped back into your old habits before February was out. Maybe you’ve repeated this cycle for so many years that you don’t even bother to look at your resolutions until after the next Christmas. Well, it’s time for you to take another approach.

Athletes do it, actors do it; even executives do it. What do they all have in common? They all hire coaches who can help them to improve their performance. No matter what you hear or read in the press or popular literature, no one is self-made. They all had help.

read moreFrom Discouragement to Encouragement
Everyone experiences discouragement at one time or another. It’s part of life. Quite often, things just don’t turn out the way we would like them to, and no matter how hard we try, we can’t seem to get the results we want. The problem is that discouragement can be paralyzing; and so if you don’t have a plan for how to deal with it, then there’s a real danger that you won’t be able to when it comes. It’s been said that it’s lonely at the top and for that reason alone leaders may suffer from discouragement more than anyone else...
read moreHow to Avoid Burnout
A sure sign of overtraining is that you stop looking forward to your workouts. You’re no longer interested in running, walking, swimming, cycling, or whatever your preferred sport is. Despite what could be years of enthusiastic participation, the thought of the next session feels more like a drudgery than a joy. And this can create turmoil inside, because while the spirit feels obligated, the body can’t be bothered. The same thing can happen at work. Just like the athlete whose endorphins cause him or her to do too much, so, too, can you...

read moreThe Art of Saying ‘No’
In every role in an organization, one of the greatest challenges today is to know how and when to say ‘No’. That may be perhaps, in the past at least, promotions were given to those who could accomplish the most by saying yes to every business opportunity and every request. Busyness – 60, 80, 100 hour weeks, however, are no longer a sign of success. The fact is that you’re effective for much less time than that. Sometimes you focus on the wrong work or the right work at the wrong time. And so the key is to start...
