The power of focus is critical to your success in business...and also in life. Mac Anderson admits, however, that this is something that took Mac a while to learn, and he has a few "battle scars" to show what happens to slow learners regarding this issue. "More is better" sounds reasonable, but Mac has learned the opposite is usually true. Less, I've discovered, is usually more. The reason, of course, is that there is something powerful about laser-like focus. Having a simple, clearly defined goal can capture the imagination and enthusiasm of your people. It can cut through the night like a beacon. It can bring an idea to life.In 1985, Jan Carlson had just been named the CEO of Scandinavian Airlines. His company was in trouble. They had just been ranked by a consumer poll as the worst airline in the world. Last in service, last in dependability, and last in profits as a percentage of sales.

"A lot of leaders can talk the talk, but Mac has walked the walk. I've known him for over ten years and he's one of the most genuine and down-to-earth people you'll ever meet."— Mike Singletary, Speaker/Author/Coach, Hall of Fame – Chicago Bears
 Mac Live ~A Live Speech on DVD From: Simple Truths Carlson had decided to focus on what he thought was the most critical issue...serving the customer. He wanted to keep it simple: identify every contact between the customer and the employee and treat that contact as "a moment of truth." He set out to let his people know the importance of that moment...the captain, the ticket agent, the baggage handler, the flight attendant. "Every moment, every contact" he said, "must be as pleasant, and as memorable as possible." He figured that he had approximately ten million customers each year, and on average each customer made contact with five of his people for approximately fifteen seconds apiece. Therefore, in his mind, these fifty million contacts, fifteen seconds at a time, would determine the fate of his company. He set out to share his vision with his twenty thousand employees. He knew the key was to empower the front line. Let them make the decisions and take action, because they were Scandinavian Airlines during those fifteen seconds. He now had twenty thousand people who were energized and ready to go because they were focused on one very important thing...making every moment count.

Leadership Unlimited Profile
Removing Barriers to Your Potential
Roger R. Pearman, R. Daniel Parks, Barry Phillips, and Marcus C. King
The Leadership Unlimited Profile is a new assessment that helps managers to develop the behaviors that will help to ensure their success. Based on more than 20 years of research, it provides specific, targeted feedback on those behaviors that severely limit effectiveness, including: Organizing Behavior, Relationship Behavior, Learning Initiatives Behavior, Emotional Behavior, Career Management Behavior. The assessment serves as an “early warning” tool by providing quick insights into the critical areas of performance, identifies the skills sets needed to reach the next level, and establishes benchmarks to help people take charge of their development.
Courageous Leadership
A Program for Using Courage to Transform the Workplace We have high and often conflicting expectations of leaders. Be reasonable but passionate. Decisive but inclusive. Visionary but explicit. Powerful but humble. Add to that emotionally intelligent, caring, impartial, people-oriented, and of course, profit-driven. The list is so long that it often leaves leaders scratching their heads, thinking: how am I supposed to be all of these things at once? The answer is courage. It's what enables a leader to face tough times and step up to the plate. It is what gives leadership its backbone. Courageous Leadership is a comprehensive training package that introduces courage-building, a practice that guides leaders to meet challenges more readily, embrace change more fully, and speak more assertively. Courage-building is all about developing capable and confident leaders who can transform organizations. A combination assessment, workbook, and workshop, Courageous Leadership gives leaders at all levels the foundational skills and abilities they need to become more courageous. Learning Outcomes: Understand the impact fear has on personal and organizational performance. How It Works: The participant workbook offers tips and techniques for raising one's scores in the area that would benefit from the application of more courage. The Courageous Leadership workshop introduces people to a specific understanding of courage, illustrates how they can become more courageous, and demonstrates the vital role courage has in the workplace and our lives.
