    Courtesy of John Eades, Building The Best: The following post from John Eades on October 13, 2023 in his "Building The Best" weekly post from LearnLoft and he addresses the importance of measurement of performance.

However, before you start to believe this is a bashing session around performance reviews, think again.   Measuring performance...

    The following is from John Eades and the "Building The Best" weekly series from September 26, 2023. Making excuses is commonplace for many professionals. Who could blame them? Making an excuse is easier than taking responsibility. If that wasn't enough, it simply feels better to blame someone or something else for a mistake or a lackluster outcome.   However, just because something feels good doesn't mean it helps you. Take Shawn, a first-time manager, as an example. An HR executive...

It's often called "soft" or "moderately important." In reality, culture is anything but these things. In Building the Best, I defined culture as "The shared values and beliefs that guide thinking and...

    The following article is from Steve Wood Operations Director at Creative Foods, UK May 23, 2023. Courtesy of Steve Wood: https://www.linkedin.com/in/steve-wood-1a60a15b/ A #growthmindset is perhaps the thing above all others we look for in those who have the potential and ability to #lead.

It is therefore, very important that...

    Courtesy of Building the Best The following article is courtesy of John Eades in "Building the Best" on may 23, 2023. The truth can set you free and create a brighter future than exists today. However, leaders often avoid the truth for fear of what might happen because of it. So they surround themselves with "yes" people who will shelter the truth and tell them what they want to hear. While it might seem like a good idea, a...
