A message from Sandy. Do you know the difference between micromanagement and delegation? Here are some examples: MICROMANAGEMENT: ——–Only giving out superficial, simplistic, boring, or unappealing tasks. ———–Nothing of significance can be decided by the employee unless she obtains approval. ———–Providing detailed directions and methodologies, thereby limiting the ownership and creativity input of the team [...]
A message from Sandy. Too much micromanagement and no delegation are signs of mismanagement. Trust is one of the essential elements in all high performing teams. True delegation is one of the core indicators of trust levels between the leader and the led. If your team seems frustrated and morale is low it may be [...]
A message from Sandy. I think people can safely be categorized into three groups: those who watch things happen; those who make things happen; and those who are still wondering what happened! Upon further deliberation, and even at the risk of oversimplifying things, I’m going to pare these three groups down to two: those who [...]
A message from Sandy. When someone you don’t like or respect suggest something, what is your first reaction? (be honest!) I’ll bet it’s to dismiss it, before giving it any real thought–for some people it’s like a reflex. If I don’t particularly care for you, I won’t particularly care for your idea.

A message from Sandy via John Maxwell and his book “Developing the Leader Within You.” Time is the most precious commodity for many people. Whenever change is about to happen, we all look to see how it will affect our time. Usually we conclude that increased change will be fine, if it does not increase [...]
Some of us seem to go through life like magnets, attracting object after object to ourselves, and never letting go of anything. Drawers fill up, shelves fill up, boxes fill up, car trunks fill up, closets fill up, cupboards fill up, garages fill up… Sometimes, personal belongings are the problem. Other times, it’s the relentless [...]
A message from Sandy via one of my heroes John Maxwell and his book, Developing the Leaders Around You. The leaders in any organization must be the environmental change agents.
