Seven Habits of Highly Effective Managers
With The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Managers at the top of mind, begin your day with a look into the mirror. Make a commitment to the person you see in the mirror:
|
I will plan my week in advance vs reacting to the moment.
Be Proactive
|
 |
|
 |
I will have a mission & vision, think ahead, and know in advance what the objectives / principles are before I make decisions.
Begin with the End in mind
|
|
|
I will spend time & energy on what helps to achieve the mission vs what seems to be urgent. Interviewing weekly, training, guerilla marketing, & planning.
First things first
|
 |
|
 |
I will have healthy relationships with the staff, customers (and boss) and everyone walks away from each contact with value.
Think win-win
|
|
|
I will personally connect with no less than 50% of my customers AND I will connect with each person on my team to understand their likes / dislikes / goals.
Seek first to understand, then be understood
|
 |
|
 |
I will find ways to leverage individual differences to create a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts.
Synergize
|
|
|
I will take time out of production to build production capacity through personal renewal of the physical, mental, social, emotional and spiritual dimensions.
Sharpen the saw
