Day 120 | Mirror, Mirror...
The enchanted mirror in the story of Snow White cannot lie. It answers the question of the evil queen, stepmother to Snow White, when she asks, "...who is the fairest in the land?"
It's almost as if part of the enchanted mirror's response is to reflect back on the vanity of the wicked queen.
You and I are leaders. It may surprise you, but we have "enchanted" leadership mirrors that reflect the effectiveness of our leadership systems to hire, manage, develop, and retain top performing employees who love their career with our company.
Our leadership mirrors do not lie. Our leadership mirrors are called employees.
"Mirror, mirror in my company, tell me what you truly think of me?"
Our employees' behavior mirror the effectiveness of our leadership systems.
If we have employees who are unproductive, and/or gossips, and/or error-prone, and/or unwilling to follow our processes, and/or have other difficulties - DO NOT BLAME THEM. Often our leadership systems are broken.
Their issues are our fault. We hire them... We manage them, or not... We develop them, or not... and worst of all, we retain them too long when some people will never be successful in our company culture.
Our LEADERSHIP Essentials and All-In LEADERSHIP systems develop the habits of 3Strands LEADERS. If you do not want to learn from us, please learn from somebody! Time passes too quickly not to be the best leader possible.
It is Monday. ACCOUNTABILITY TIME!
- How did you do on your 3Strands last week?
- Did you take 20 minutes or more for Sanctuary time this weekend to improve your focus on what is most important?
- Are you starting this week with 1-3 clearly defined MAJOR OBJECTIVES - your 3Strands for this week? (Look at them each morning.)
Stay on track.
