Power+Systems, Inc. Good HBR blog on middle managers. What the author missed, though, is the critical role Middles can play when they integrate with one another --i.e., when they share information, jointly diagnose the system, share best practices, coach one another, and develop new organizational synergies. Those payoffs are endless! http://bit.ly/61YL7B

Power+Systems, Inc. Interesting article on companies using "stretch assignments" to develop leaders. Would you agree that The Power Lab is a "stretch assignment?" Sure requires less investment of time and money. Read the article and let us know what you think. http://bit.ly/4dCtju

The importance of developmental assignments and how they're being adapted to pay off in today's global economy are two of the strongest messages emerging from the research behind the world's Top Companies for Leaders.

Big fan of PowerLab...and it is a lot less costly than learning on the job!

Power+Systems, Inc. Two wonderful trainer certifications for The Organization Workshop over the past month, both with amazing people. The one in the UK was facilitated by John Watters. Barry and Karen Oshry facilitated the Cape Cod one. Shown in the photo are the trainers, aka John Carter and the Blue Dots, belting it out.

As they say.... all work and no play would make us dull, dull, dull. It was a great experience: learning, sharing, practicing, pushing ourselves. And who would have thought? Singing! (or at least giving it a good laughing try!)

Power+Systems, Inc. Talk about a leader who should have come to a Power Lab. He doesn't have a clue about system sight or empathy for others' worlds. And the costs to himself, to his organization, and to ALL OF US are enormous. http://bit.ly/85ky4

Unlike his legendary predecessor at Bank of America, Ken Lewis turned out not to be a born leader.
