PRIZE Leadership Quotient

Leadership is the art of making decisions in the dim light of incomplete information, and leadership is measured with the illumination of hindsight.If we want to be sure to be as well equipped as possible when the time comes for those dimly lit decisions to be made, then we need to make sure that our leadership skills are as developed as possible in preparation, and the PLQ provides a helpful benchmark against which we can assess our progress.If we can measure it, then we stand a chance of being able to deliver it.

Influence: to encourage someone to take action

"Don’t look at them … they’re only showing off!"Don’t look at them. That’s a phrase I seem to hear from the passenger seat quite often when a really nice car drives past catching my attention.

Creating Margin

Riding on black ice. Some years ago I used to commute to work on a motorbike in all weathers. I recall one particularly snowy winter’s day I became aware that there was probably a stretch of black ice hidden under the snow I was riding on.

Hats off to the past

“I’m so glad that I’m out of there, I don’t know why I worked for such idiots in the first place!”Does it need to be that way? Surely we should be able to exit a position with the same attitude and integrity with which we entered it?
