Lessons in leadership

How do we learn about leadership? Do we go get an MBA, attend a course at a leading university or recognised business college, or do we just need to just do it! Modelling what leaders do, discovering their mind-set and understanding the process they go through, is probably the most effective way of emulating their success. There are common values, beliefs and behaviours that set good leaders apart from others. However there are lessons to be learned everywhere. From films, animals, everyday situations, communities, moments of crisis etc. The lessons in this post come from the primary school. See what 3 valuable lessons you can learn there!

5 top guidelines for great negotiations

Never underestimate the power of a professional negotiator ... and make sure it's you and not the person you are negotiating with! Negotiating is not a competition and should be approached with a cool head and a clear idea of what you want to achieve. I've seen many a negotiation go wrong where emotions, mind reading and assumptions turn the meekest of people into a demanding, go for the jugular, win at all costs maniac! Negotiation is a life-skill so get yourself on a good training program, buy a book or at the very least read this post which will give you some expert guidelines on professional negotiations.
