This book is really nice and simple. It contains great quotations of the qualities that leader has. It is categorized well. I think everybody should go through the list once. Each one is jewel in itself.

Some of my favorites are as below:

Many people have ideas on how others should change; few people have ideas on how they should change. = Leo Tolstoy

The first method for estimating the intelligence of a ruler is to look at the men he has around him. = Niccolo Machiavelli

There’s nothing more demoralizing than a leader who can’t clearly articulate why we’re doing what we’re doing. = James Kouzes and Barry Posner

I cannot trust a man to control others who cannot control himself. = Robert E. Lee

A true leader has to have a genuine open-door policy so that his people are not afraid to approach him for any reason. = Harold Geneen

Delegating work works, provided the one delegating works too. = Robert Half

You do not lead by hitting people over the head—that’s assault, not leadership. = Dwight D. Eisenhower

Leadership is solving problems. The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help or concluded you do not care. Either case is a failure of leadership. = Karl Popper

Lead and inspire people. Don’t try to manage and manipulate people. Inventories can be managed but people must be led. = Ross Perot

In order to make a fire burn, you fan the live coals. In order to keep your organization fired up, it’s imperative that you find and motivate the leaders or potential leaders in your organization regardless of how far down the line they might be. = Dexter Yager

Have patience. All things are difficult before they become easy. = Saadi Shirazi

I have just figured out from experience that there should be effective communication in everything you do. Also, this communication somehow reach to the end as it is without modification. But as in all organization, there are people who modify the things according to their own need . Wow.. Money matters buddy…

I just find out one good article which discussed the same…

The purpose of communication (to engage in the act of information exchange) is the fulfillment of one’s physical or emotional needs. If you are tired, you start asking around for a cheap hotel.

The effectiveness of the communication is determined by the quality of the communication channel, the quality of the interaction, if you will. If there is noise on a channel, the effectiveness of communication reduces.

The risk of noise on a channel is determined by a need to cheat, and the opportunity to cheat.

The need to cheat arises when there is scarcity; when you get in direct conflict with others when trying to fulfill your needs. If the entire village is competing for the same bed, asking around will probably sent you in the wrong direction.

The opportunity to cheat appears when information can be manipulated, when it is possible to provide wrong information on purpose. If information is not clear, complex or ambiguous the opportunity to cheat increases. When there is no way to verify information, when it is difficult to get feedback the opportunity increases also. ….. (And so on.

Sync Microsoft Outlook with Google Calendar

Syncing calendar events between Outlook and Google Calendar has been a cinch ever since Google came out with Google Calendar Sync, a free application that provides bidirectional syncing between the two. (It also supports one-way sync in either direction, if for some reason you don’t want two-way syncing.) Assuming you’re using a supported setup (Outlook 2003 or 2007 and either Vista or XP), here’s how to get it working…

Try using it!! You will love it

I have gone through my blog reading and find out nice content as follows .

Suggested reading: All Things Workplace: Nothing Happens Until People Talk.

Add these four thoughts to your leadership communication kit:

• Never assume that anyone knows anything.

• The larger the group, the more attention needs to be given to communicating.

• When left in the dark, people will fantasize their own reality. Do you want their fantasy to trump your reality?

• Effective leaders are obsessed with accurate, frequent communication.

I especially love point #4: Effective leaders are obsessed with accurate, frequent communication.
