Effective leaders have the guts to look at what others
do …..
and do something different.
Wolf Rinke's Tips for Effective Leadership
Tip #2 Knowledge is not power
Knowledge is power. Most people agree with this statement.
But, here is a brutal fact: It's not what you know that makes a difference,
it's what you do that makes a difference. It's what you apply, apply
over and over again until it causes you to transform new knowledge into
a new auto-pilot response pattern. After all, you can read all the diet
books in the world, and never lose a pound.
Most leaders and managers say they know how to lead people. They've
got it all together. They can talk a great game…and yet when it
comes to actually doing, they don't act according to what they know.
They act in accordance with their habit patterns --- patterns that are
typically based on what has worked for them in the past. Yet, what has
worked in the past may no longer provide optimum results today. Their
assumptions that have worked in the past need to be revisited, reevaluated
and maybe even, horror of horrors, changed.
With the expertise of Wolf Rinke at your fingertips, you're
on your way to becoming the kind of manager that everyone will turn
to, as you start your journey to improved efficiency, productivity and
workplace morale. Soft cover book, 190 pages (B104 $14.95) More
