Distinguish the Distinctions of Your Business

by Utpal Vaishnav on January 23, 2012

…no matter what your business is.

Leading a Business is unlike any other role of an organization, because it’s always dissimilar.

Unstructured, unpredictable, atypical…a right brain activity.

No predefined set of rules or guidelines are much of help because everyone leads their business differently, and what flourishing business leaders have in common is that they are flourishing.

The only way you and your organization is going to make a difference in the market is the way you lead.

Not by reading some leadership books, attending some leadership courses or following external expert’s advice.

What works for you and your market might not work for other business leaders or their market. It’s like playing your own inning of your chosen game.

Find your own articulatio because business is not a Ph.D. thesis that can be copied from somewhere.

Keep Delivering

January 7, 2012

Every time you stand up, send a text message, write a piece of software code, publish a blog post or write a tweet, you’re exposing yourself to disparagement. Not just disparagement, but the possible negative consequences that come with your actions. It’s no wonder why most of [...]
