(External Blog Post) On reading Globe and Mail blog: “Leadership: 12 ways to fail”

The “12 killers of good leadership” are not only useful for leads to be self-cautious, but also very important to company performance, image, culture, and reward system. As identified in the blog post “Leadership: 12 ways to fail”, in which 12 personal characters are identified as dangerous to leadership abilities. As one knows, between the CEO and workers are managers in leadership positions. The managers implicitly represent the goal of the company. If managers fail to lead workers to the company’s best interest, eventually the company will fail-not profit. Good management creates more dedication for employees to work harder and synchronize company goals to personal goals; it’s a company culture issue too. Not only does it affect performance and culture but also the reward system of a company. This ties into the reward system as sometimes in order to get the best reward managers will have to be small minded, dishonest, revengeful, etc., which were some of the 12 killers of good leadership mentioned in Harvey Schachter’s Globe and Mail blog.
