N2Growth, is a well organized blog with excellent tips on succeeding in business. For example, I really enjoyed reading their "5 tips to better communication." The tips? In a nutshell they are:
- Walk the Floor (make it a point when not traveling to get out of the office and tour the building each and every day.)
- Hit Conflict Head-on (Never stick your head in the sand. Problems don’t solve themselves and will only get worse if not attended to.)
- Utilize Technology (There is only so much time in the day and while technology is certainly no substitute for direct personal communication, used properly it can nicely augment your efforts and increase your leverage.)
- Maximize Meetings (Don’t have meetings just for the sake of having meetings and don’t call a meeting without a purpose that results in actionable items.)
- Make the Most of Lunches (make it a point to take an employee to lunch once each week. Don’t fall into the lunch bunch click of having casual “executive lunches” with the same group on a frequent basis.)
