If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more, and become more, you are a leader. ~John Quincy Adams. Over the decades, many companies could not compete with global competition. Among the ones that did succeed, most could not sustain their position in the market. Leaders like Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, and Warren Buffet, with their vision, unshakable determination, and persistent hard work, led their respective companies to great heights.

We have seen Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins reach for the moon and achieve the unthinkable. It seemed impossible, but they made it a successful mission, which at first seemed like a distant goal. But how did they do it? When you come to think of the success, it was a joint effort that put their names in the history books. It was a result of their sheer determination, dedication and hard work at their workplace.

Positioning is a concept that has changed the advertising domain. The simplicity of brand positioning makes people underestimate the importance of brand positioning. Today’s marketplace is no longer responsive to the strategies that worked in the past. The brand positioning strategy that worked for Ford in 1970s won’t work in 2019. There are too many products, too many companies, and too much marketing noise.

2024 has tested every organization, and 2025 promises no less - the warning signs are everywhere. If you’re relying on superficial approaches to diversity, you might find yourself scrambling to catch up. Thought diversity - the fuel for new ideas, fresh perspectives, and disruptive innovation - is more than a buzzword. It's a survival strategy. And if you’re not building it into your workplace culture right now , you’re heading for trouble.

These clichés are often used as colloquial terms for. empowering others to trust themselves. Most of the choices we make in a day aren’t driven solely by logic. Problem-solving also involves emotional elements that can help us arrive at the right solutions.

When Strategic Ambiguity Threatens. Even when you have worked hard to create a clear and compelling business strategy , things can get in the way. Life is complicated and, in the business world, ever-changing. Leaders change roles, technologies evolve, markets shift, and resources can get tapped out.

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance. In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results.

Working remotely has previously been an exception few companies were willing to make for their people. In fact, up until the early 70’s, telecommuting was unheard of. Office optics determined how you were perceived by your manager and co-workers, and being “absent” meant you were not contributing. But new companies are now rethinking their remote workforce policies along with other cultural and performance strategies.
