					  <description><![CDATA[At 97 years of age, John Wooden is a legend in the coaching profession. In 1999, ESPN named him The Greatest Coach of the 20th Century. The list of honors garnered by Coach Wooden during his coaching career is unrivaled. After glancing at Coach Wooden's record, a person may be misled into thinking Coach Wooden was a man preoccupied with winning. However, nothing could be further from the truth. ]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[Leadership has its own ABC; that is different from the normal ABC. It is not as simple as the letter seems to be, it has a complete depth a new world to explore. Every word for a letter has its own meaning and they define the quality that a leader must have. Each letter has a word of its own and each word has its own meaning with reference to the leadership context.]]></description>

					  <link>http://www.refresher.com/mindfulnetwork/articlelive/articles/98/1/The-CEO-As-Visionary/Page1.html</link>
					  <description><![CDATA[Mr. Whalen is a mild mannered southern gentleman, who delivered one of the most inspiring CEO keynote presentations I have ever heard at any business convention! As you might imagine I go to a few. Mr. Whalen, or Gus, as he likes to be called, needs neither booming CEO voice, nor Donald Trump bravado to leave a lasting impact. He makes an impact on everyone he meets, from front-line employees to his manufacturing clients to touching tomorrow's generation. Two of his mantras are: "Our children are the living messages to the world we do not see" and "The only profit a company has is the community that it creates." <br/>]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[What factors are involved in shaping up a leader, in preparing him / her to take up the leadership role, getting him / her ready to be precise? In studying the various aspects of readiness and during various brainstorming sessions in class we have developed a leadership readiness model with the help of human anatomy. The factors are ordered, ranked and discussed with respect to their importance in how the leaders use them to become great leaders.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[The power of thought is indisputably great. For illustration, look at the life of Henry David Thoreau, a 19th-century Massachusetts philosopher. Thoreau's thoughts, as the basis for nonviolent resistance, would end up fueling two of the greatest social advancements of the 20th century - Ghandi's struggle to free India from Britain's colonial rule and the American Civil Rights Movement led by Martin Luther King, Jr.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[If you are like many, you may be stuck looking only at possible ways to cut even more costs. Quite frankly, you need to do better. Cost management is surely important, but if it is your only option, you are not stepping up to your responsibility as a leader. While probability analysis falls squarely into the domain of management, it is up to leaders to find ways to increase the number of possibilities that can be put into play. ]]></description>

					  <link>http://www.refresher.com/mindfulnetwork/articlelive/articles/82/1/Charismatic-Leadership/Page1.html</link>
					  <description><![CDATA[Of all leadership attributes, charisma is perhaps the least understood. At first glance, charisma appears to be an invisible energy or magnetism. There's no denying its presence, but it's hard to put a finger on its source. Some mistakenly believe charisma is a birth trait&#8212;embedded in certain personalities, but completely absent in others. I believe charisma is both explainable and learnable.<br/> ]]></description>

					  <link>http://www.refresher.com/mindfulnetwork/articlelive/articles/78/1/Show-Up/Page1.html</link>
					  <description><![CDATA[I learned this week that a client started a program in which every manager is part of a team to help less-experienced staff learn basic project management techniques. The overall intent is to not only enhance the project management skills of the less-experienced participants, but to also identify and implement efficiency enhancement opportunities throughout the organization. This will enable more employees to take lead positions on future projects, to develop their individual skills, and to obviously support the company. Terrific right? Well in theory it sounds great. However, in application it's not so great. Why? Management's not showing up.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[A key element of "knowing thyself" is sorting out what's really important to you. Without a clear sense of our personal principles and priorities, it's almost impossible to bring the picture of our preferred future or vision sharply into focus. ]]></description>
