Outstanding Leaders Have a Certain Capacity, Here's Some Characteristics:

Leading and managing are two different things...yes. Leading is quite a challenge, however. Versus managing, leading has more to do with how the team functions from the inside out. Managing however, has to do with how the team functions overall. See the difference? Let me explain...

You see leaders are all about leading people to a certain point. It requires progress from start to finish. Management is more like managing progress. When you're a leader, you're required to get people to a certain point. Management, there are no specific requirements.

Organizing a Business Plan: What You Need

As I've recently taken a look at business plans, I found that some people are misinformed about them. So, let me go over a few helpful tips, in hopes that you become better educated on what is needed.

Every business should have an agenda, plan, purpose, mission, etc.

  1. Overview: This section is going to be the same as the last ("summary") section. You need at least to explain the market opportunity, the company's leadership role, and (the most specific) cash amount required to breakeven at X.

Boss Horror Story #2

This past Friday, I reviewed my boss horror story #1, now on to boss #2. The other boss I will talk about a bit on what difficulties I faced, what I observed, and ways to solve the problems that were created. This will help you learn what good management/leadership is, and what it's not.

This other boss, I was working with her a couple hours every day that I worked, then worked with the other manager on the shift for the other time I was at work.

Well, the general manager of this place was not exactly the easiest to get along with. Her focus was all about rules, and if you didn't follow them (or rather, broke at least one), she either yelled at you, or she yelled at the team at our staff meetings. After hearing so much cursing and yelling at our meetings, I couldn't tolerate it anymore.
