Dear Gary,
|
Welcome to our
first edition of the Blueprint
LEADERSHIP
briefing (2013).
If you have not seen it, we sent a
Blueprint LEADERSHIP
Launch Message
last week. In that announcement, we
invited you to view our NEW
Blueprint Leadership Website to
learn about What We Do, How We Do It,
Who We Are and Who We Serve. We are
very excited to interact and partner
with you to develop
Blueprint
LEADERSHIP: Building
Organizations that Change the World.
As we left off last year, we continue
focusing on Critical Leadership
Characteristics of
Blueprint LEADERS.
This month we highlight HONESTY. This
month's article, "Honesty: Powerful,
Compassionate Perspective" challenges
leaders to think more deeply than what
we normally do about the implications
of honesty in the workplace. Honesty
demands courage, and increased
responsibility compels higher levels
of genuine honesty resulting in
greater organizational clarity and
higher workplace performance. It isn't
the easy way, but it is the better
way.
We also invite you to read our
supplemental article, which challenges us
to proclaim purposefully what we value as
an organization. Disney does that well,
resulting in great success. Let's learn
from their example.
As always, we welcome your comments. Thank
you for joining us in building
Blueprint LEADERSHIP
within yourself, your team and your
organization!

FEATURE ARTICLE:
Honesty: Powerful, Compassionate Perspective
by Diane Kucala
This candid article takes a look at how we
define honesty, and what honesty looks like
in today's businesses. Today's leaders are
called to a higher standard of honesty,
beyond "telling the truth." Truth must be
courageous, teamed with compassion and
sincerity.
