Invitation for You...

THIS IS A SPECIAL INVITATION...

I invite all leaders (from every area and walk of life!) to join me in this blog, which among other things, will be discussions and snippets from The Leaders Vault.

The vault is a special library containing the teachings of leaders from thousands of years. It was recently made public by Stan, who is the main character of CATAPULTED.

From my blog you may find some ideas for your company, a little bit of mentoring, and you may just notice the world a little differently.

You will be invited to participate in the ongoing conversations and comment on what you've learned, or to ask questions so that discussion might be more helpful to you.

Each post will end in a question to keep the dialog going with you.

Please, if you like what you see, subscribe to at least the Silver Level of The Leader's Vault (the free level) so you can stay informed and "at the top of your game."

And, please forward a link to CatapultedLeader.com to your friends and colleagues.

You are ALL WELCOME to come in and see what The Leaders' Vault is all about...

Financial Crisis Requires a Heavy Dose of What's Next and What's Near

The current economic crisis has created a lot of concerns and worries. Doubts about personal financial security, fears about opportunity, and doubts about management. People are confused about life's priorities. They are confused if their actions really can change the future. So many things seem out of control.

The same worries that are affecting employees sanity are pushing management teams into closed conference rooms. These rooms become covert lairs where managers enter but no information returns. Managers are trying to perfect their approach before they share the next step. Yet employees are feeling untrusted.

Managers should deliver more information earlier. They need to give the next milestone. Weekly target or even daily. In periods of stress, people want to know "where am I" and "where am I going."

Remember the last time you were at the airport waiting for an unannounced delayed flight. Travelers keep lining up to get information. The airline personnel complain but they have the power to fix the problem. If they just posted a hand-written notice they would reduce worries.

Give smaller pieces of information in shorter intervals. Don't wait for perfect answers. To be a good leader in times of crisis, take a stand on what is next.
