Great leaders demonstrate behaviours that we generally recognise and appreciate [and applaud] from time to time. Genuine and authentic leadership is the ability to be receptive to everyone’s perceptions and the information and environments around them in order to continually adapt and learn.

Where are all the great coaches?

When it comes to developing and assessing your teams, your managers are the lynch-pin to coaching and achieving the desired performance levels. So, helping your managers develop in this area is critical on both an individual level as well as for the organisation. Yet for a variety of reasons, this valuable activity is often ignored.

HR Risks for Small Business

Small businesses employ a significant amount of our population, yet Human Resources (HR) management is not often considered essential for these players and usually only thought of in the event that something has happened where they need immediate support or assistance.

In many ways though, small to medium business needs effective human resource management even more than larger companies, as its most valuable employees interact directly with customers and have a direct link to the growth of your business, the level of service you provide and overall ...

But when push comes to shove – it would appear that this goes out the window in the face of making decisions and taking action.

And before you know it, you’ll be dealing with unsatisfied customers as well as unsatisfied employees”.
