FIRST THINGS BEFORE FIRST THINGS 2 OF 2: EXCELLENCE THE LAW OF 5
EXCELLENCE is not a “long- term” “aspiration. ”
EXCELLENCE is not a “long-term” "aspiration. ” EXCELLENCE is the ultimate short-term strategy. EXCELLENCE is … THE NEXT 5 (*Or NOT. ) MINUTES. *
EXCELLENCE is not an "aspiration. " EXCELLENCE is … THE NEXT FIVE MINUTES. Or not. EXCELLENCE is your next 3 -minute chance conversation. Or not. EXCELLENCE is your next meeting. Or not. EXCELLENCE is your next email. Or not. EXCELLENCE is shutting up and listening—really, really listening. Or not. EXCELLENCE is asking the next person you encounter, “What do you think? ” Or not EXCELLENCE is getting out of the office and wandering around for 30 minutes —right now. Or not. EXCELLENCE is your next customer contact. Or not. EXCELLENCE is saying “Thank you” for something “small. ” Or not. EXCELLENCE is waaay over-reacting to a screw-up. Or not. EXCELLENCE is waaay “over”-preparing for a 3 -minute presentation. Or not. EXCELLENCE is turning a “trivial” task into a model of … EXCELLENCE. Or not.

Hiring
“We look for. . . listening, caring, smiling, saying ‘Thank you, ’ being warm. ” — Colleen Barrett, former President, Southwest Airlines
“The ultimate filter we use [in the hiring process] is that we only hire nice people. … When we finish assessing skills, we do something called ‘running the gauntlet. ’ We have them interact with 15 or 20 people, and everyone of them have what I call a ‘blackball vote, ’ which means they can say if we should not hire that person. I believe in culture so strongly and that one bad apple can spoil the bunch. There are enough really talented people out there who are nice, you don’t really need to put up with people who act like jerks. ” —Peter Miller, CEO Optinose (pharmaceuticals)

Why (why why why is intensiveextensive training obvious for the army & navy & sports teams & performing why why) not arts groups—but for the average business?
Gamblin’ Man >> 5 of 10 CEOs see training as expense rather than investment. Bet #2: >> 5 of 10 CEOs see training as defense rather than offense. Bet #3: >> 5 of 10 CEOs see training as “necessary evil” rather than “strategic opportunity. ” Bet #1:
>> 8 of 10 CEOs, in 45 -min “tour d’horizon” of their biz, would NOT mention training. Bet #4:
Step #1 Is your CTO/Chief Training Officer (Do you even have a CTO? ) your top paid “C-level” job (other than CEO/COO)? Are your top trainers paid/cherished as much as your top marketers/ engineers?

“Most managers spend a great deal of time thinking about what they plan to do, but relatively little time thinking about what they plan not to do. As a result, they become so caught up … in fighting the fires of the moment that they cannot really attend to the long-term threats and risks facing the organization. So the first soft skill of leadership the hard way is to cultivate the perspective of Marcus Let me put it bluntly: every leader should routinely keep a substantial portion of his or her time—I would say as much as Aurelius: avoid busyness, free up your time, stay focused on what really matters. 50% —unscheduled. … Only when you have substantial ‘slop’ in your schedule—unscheduled time—will you have the space to reflect on what you are doing, learn from experience, and recover from your inevitable mistakes. Leaders without such free time end up tackling issues only when there is an immediate or visible problem. Managers’ typical response to my argument about free time is, ‘That’s all well and good, but Yet we waste so much time in unproductive activity—it takes an enormous effort on the part of the leader to keep free time for the truly important things. ” there are things I have to do. ’ Dov Frohman , Leadership The Hard Way — (Chapter 5, “The Soft Skills Of Hard Leadership”)
