Transparency--like it or not, we're there!

Transparency by Warren Bennis, Daniel Goleman, James O'Toole is one of my favorites.  Rather than give you a book review, here's a video snippet by one of the authors.  I hope you'll read the book as well.

Being Authentic

Have you had it with people shooting from the hip and saying whatever they chose attaching the labels of authenticity and being candid, which is an underlying disguise for rudeness and disrespect?

At Altruistic Leadership, we've adopted the following definition for authenticity in our programs...

Conducting yourself in a situationally appropriate way

Using authentic dialogue helps to wipe out silent lies and pocket vetoes that occur when people agree to something they do not intend to carry out, or are stuck on carrying out their own agenda. Confronting people in a situationally appropriate way doesn't suggest you rollover either! What it does suggest is that you focus the conversation & use dialogue to create action and bring closure.

Check us out at Altruistic Leadership-Programs.  We've designed our programs to equip the leader-of-color with powerful tools to bring about decisive and empowering dialogue for your career journey.

Link to the video!

I found the full version of this video on the net.  It's one of my favorite DVDs by TD Jakes.  If you don't view the entire program (which I highly recommend), fast forward 45 minutes into the program for a leadership lesson on the Eagle.  Question: What have you picked up...that you need to put down?

New Resources are waiting for you!

I've uploaded new resources and articles on the Altruistic Leadership site.

Several are "must-reads" you don't want to miss.

Enjoy!
