Why Is This Happening for Me? 

IN 1954, Dr. Julian Rotter began measuring what he called a student’s locus of control. He said you either had an external locus of control or an internal locus of control.
James Schreier's insight:

This is the second article spotted in just the last couple of days that addressed an idea from decades past.  I'm delighted!  The world of leadership/management has always been too quick to dismiss some classic thoughts that are both correct and valuable.  This is one of those!!!

Praise and Criticism

Praise and Criticism | Management - Leadership | Scoop.it
Truth be told I don’t know anyone who wouldn’t prefer to be praised rather than criticized. Receiving praise and recognition from anyone always makes us feel better. Even when we’re almost certain the person giving the praise is blowing smoke up our you know what, that fake praise still feels better than well needed criticism. …
James Schreier's insight:

An interesting point on this topic:  how do managers "assist" employees (colleagues) accept the philosophy expressed here?

“In Search of Excellence” Revisited

IN 1982, Tom Peters and Bob Waterman released In Search of Excellence: Lessons from America’s Best-Run Companies. The book was a huge business bestseller and served as a guide for managers for many years to come. It became required reading in business school classes. Yet, 40 years later, few now speak of the book. Perhaps it’s time for In Search of Excellence to find a new audience.
James Schreier's insight:

For 25+ years, "In Search of Excellence" was a key part of an introductory management workshop I taught to 100's of participants.  I would not hesitate a minute to include it in the workshop if I taught it again today.  I'm happy to see Leadership Now call for it to "find a new audience."

I am consistently surprised by the number of executives who are aware of bullying, but don’t take action. I know it is not easy to be a leader, especially when there is dysfunctional behavior. Human resource departments don’t have the bandwidth and may not have the expertise to help employees navigate toxic work environments.
