I recently had the privilege to hear Jason Jennings, business researchers found, a successful writer and gifted teacher on the results of a recent study by the group of successful businesses and organizations that speak to the best of the best the public.

1. The best organizations can see and deal with what they do and not words.

2. There is a desire not things that help.

3. There is a culture of transparency, so that everyone knows the goals, strategy and role in the project.

4. The staff takes ownership in all aspects of the project.

5. The leader is dedicated not only an effective manager.

Frankly, I could not agree with this list. Yes, I can somewhat different terms to talk about these things. Moreover, my understanding of the issues are much less in the statistical analysis and interviews, and based on my personal studies and decades of observation. However, I firmly believe that the success of the organization is to do great things, as some very basic things very differently. And this is the core of how the leader of the work, including approaches to how he treats people do to help their partners in the effort.

If Jennings study list, even briefly, it should be noted that the figures are correct about 3-4 people on board and fully behind the plan of the Organization of the attack - and their partners, if desired. After all, if an organization that people are fully informed about the what when, why and how and not 100% committed to be, then it is stupid enough to believe that those of systematically correct for right reasons.

Similarly, when we see and understand what we do and what the organization can cause (n. 1) contains a very powerful incentive for a wonderful aphrodisiac convincing information on the subject of talks in a specific manner. For Once again, it is about self-responsibility and recommended values.

Then, the number 2 - letting go . When Mr. Jennings was first flown term release quickly consumed my mind the ability of a leader of people with the power and responsibility to make decisions with confidence. For any politician, is the need to participate in most decisions, it feels very fast bottlenecks restricting the development of the organization and resources. While it is certainly part of it. But Jennings said that sometimes the results have led to assess objectively what works and what does not and let things (policies, procedures, methods, products, services, offices, etc.) that do not. Think of it as What have you done for me lately? If you can help or contribute to, the exercise has the opportunity to get it. For many executives have a difficult thing to do, because the issue, which may be called by their past to make decisions. so much to do moves on the leader's ability to put things right in front of personal pride and their ego - which brings us to the last item in the list of Jennings.

To understand the language of Jennings, the leaders of powerful organizations actually use what they do as a matter of custody. Personally, I would say that is a sense of sacred duty, or the heart of a servant. But even here, my words may differ from those of Jennings and his team do not think I disagree would be no different what you need to make an organization truly something special. I would add, if you work for every manager in the organization must be a good measure of the heart of cleanliness, where the other four buttons, magic at every level and every turn.

So now the question is: How do you measure and me? We and those who lead, we believe that our duty as a cause, or just a hollow platitude, a job or in another view? In addition, we really open to other ideas in other ways, however, may require, not away from something that helped create it, too? And our world? Not know - those where the organization is headed, why, how and to what extent can help? Our people feel, owner or partner in the project? And last but not least, we can help others, or we are busy with WIIFM;

None of this is rocket science. It is a very difficult formula to follow, if we think, to change something that applies to others, not us. However, if you fight for a better result (a question), it is required, and I have no choice but to consider embracing, indeed a different approach.

Transparency is a key point, no doubt. What a shame many companies haven't understood that yet.
