Obviously, yes! The desired outcome of the objective is achieved only when the value system percolates down from top!

I believe that corporations definitely do have cultures.  I want to be clear about the "s" at the end of the word culture.  I believe that the organization sets and develops a culture and that corporate mission, vision, value statements and policies...

What I've learned from working with my clients is that too many ignore the influence that their personal life has on their professional life and vice versa. The human being is not like a piece of furniture with separate drawers, everything is connected and each experience lived in a field impacts the other fields. How important is the impact of your life on your work and vice versa ?

'The purpose of life is to find a a life of purpose' & in my opinion, particularly in India, all common people are just striving towards serving their best to their families & the same spirit keeps things going.
Scott Willard  |  Commented  |  2 years ago
I don't know if I can parse the impact of work vs. life or visa versa. They are totally interconnected- I agree. I think that is the beauty of humanness. We are the sum total of our multi-facetted lives, times X- we are so much more. Part of being an...

Scott Willard  |  Commented  |  2 years ago

As CIOs and business leaders brace for an economic downturn, leaders must step forward and set the tone. Start with people. FINDINGS- As CIOs and business leaders brace for an economic downturn, they must maintain or intensify their focus on people. How they manage and support people in a downturn will have a long-term impact on how and whether people will support them during times of prosperity. ANALYSIS- Leaders get tested in the crucible of tough times — not just what they do to address challenges,but also how they face down challenges. As economic turmoil in the Western world intensifies and spreads globally, successful executives and managers must assume the following: In the world of ...

I think that you are absolutely correct in the title of your insight- Economic downturn will test leadership skills: focus on people. However, you diverge very quickly when comment on CIO's and business leaders. I feel very strongly about the...

Radhakrishna Marar  |  Commented  |  3 years ago
Nice sharing Adnan, When times get tough, leaders often make the mistake of focusing only on one thing: the immediate bottom line. Great leaders, however, continue to operate in the long term as well as the short term, and maintain focus on people...
