How to Stop Negative People From Draining You

Thursday, January 5th, 2012

 

I am in a golf league and for three weeks I had people coming up asking me to not put them with Casey.  Out of 60 people, 30 people had told me she was too negative to golf with.

So now I had a dilemma, what was I going to do? Talk to her about her attitude? Ask her to stop golfing?

Literally, every week the other people she golfed with would approach me and ask me to NEVER put her with them again. 

This left me in a leadership dilemma as to how to turn this around without alienating her and I knew the group was watching to see how I would handle it.

Perry: Forgets His Plan – How to Handle

Friday, November 11th, 2011

 

Could we have a more public example of losing your spot when speaking then the recent example from Perry at his debate? 

Here is was ranting about three agencies of government he would close and then he couldn’t even name them.

At the time he stumbled and then said, “oops, I’m Sorry.”  So the question is what else could he have done?

I would have loved to see him look in to the camera and say, “see they are non-relevant that they slip your mind.  We need government that is relevant and applicable to us all today and that is what I intend to do. I want to streamline what we do and how we do it so that each area is applicable, important and impacts all of us proactively.”

Guidelines for written communication

Wednesday, August 24th, 2011

Written communication should follow the same guidelines as an oral presentation. Therefore, it should clearly tell the participant what they will get out of reading it as well as what you expect them to do.

The written communication should be 70% about the reader. It should contain lots of white space. Any questions you ask should have white space before and after the question. This ensures that the reader can clearly see and respond to each question.

Hiding a question within a paragraph ensures that your question will most likely get lost in the shuffle and not be responded to.

Make all written communication about the reader easy to scan and easy for the reader to decipher what you expect them to do.

Why Coke Keeps Staying On Top: Lessons for Leaders – Executive Presentation Skills

Thursday, June 2nd, 2011

Presentation Skills

Remember those old Coke and Pepsi challenges?  Remember when Coke got scared and started to follow the market instead of lead?

It was a disastrous period for them as they came out with the ”New Coke.”  People started screaming for their old staple and pretty soon Coke Classic came out.  Now we are back to Coke being Coke.

It has been fun to watch them move back in to a leadership position.  Showing their executive presentation skills their newest creation is the Coke machine that will make over 1000 different varieties of drinks!  It is like an Ipod for beverages!!

I watched at Dairy Queen as people that do not usually consider beverages were scrambling to get to the counter and buy a beverage just to try it out.  It reminded me of kids at a circus!!

So ask yourself, what have you done lately to innovate and drive your leadership position in the market?  What have you done to innovate within your own company? Don’t take a back seat when you can own the front!!

How can I improve and maintain consistency in communication across multiple locations? Use Executive Presentation Skills

Monday, April 18th, 2011

Executive Presentation Skills

When you are communicating across multiple locations it becomes very important to make sure your communication is clear and concise.

The easiest way to do this is to have multiple prongs of communication that say the same thing.
If you’re implementing a new process you might have an e-mail that states in the subject line, “New patient process please use by 5/18.” You might follow this up with a brief article in your corporate newsletter about the new process.

You could also create a quick presentation at each location that shares why you have this new process, how it differs from the old process, and what staff needs to do to get it implemented.

This keeps everything short and sweet, shares what action they need to take, and hits on multiple communication levels that keeps each communication consistent.
When you have multiple locations you need to have tight, high-level communication to ensure the best results.
