Jim Champy has seven rules for leadership, honed from his many years of experience. They are: One—see the world as it truly is; two—share good ideas with all; three—make technology everyone’s job; four—manage change as a campaign; five—gain control by giving it up; six—relish change; and seven—make your values everyone’s business. Many executives spend much of their time pushing and pulling managers through the minefields of technological change, particularly when it comes to Web 2.0 and social media. But it is a tough sell. What they rely on are equal doses of fear and desire, a guiding philosophy that reflects the ideas of Leonardo da Vinci. Though Leonardo is perhaps best known as the preeminent Renaissance artist, he was also a super-polymath whose numerous inventions covered subjects as diverse as architecture and military engineering.
Pope Francis has focused on the theme of God’s mercy since the beginning of his pontificate. Now he has declared an Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy, a holy year beginning on December 8, 2015 and last ing until the feast of Christ the King on November 20, 2016. This faith-sharing guide will give readers—and even entire parishes—an opportunity to participate in this holy year in a meaningful way. Each of the eight sessions features a Gospel passage followed by a homily on that passage given by Pope Francis. Questions for reflection and discussion focus on both the Scripture text and the homily. Related Scripture passages are included, as well as an action step that can be used to grow in the practice and understanding of God’s mercy.
Bottom (and top) line: To turn Home Depot around, Frank Blake restoked employee morale, zeroed in customer needs, and focused on the core business. Best of all, he wasn’t Bob Nardelli. What can you learn from Blake’s story? Sell the project, not the product. Jump without a (golden) parachute. And never hold yourself above your people. At Home Depot, the days of caviar and roses are past. The CEO with the huge salary and outsized ego is gone. The world’s largest home-improvement retail chain has slowed its once-relentless pace of expansion almost to a halt. It has sold its 34 Expo Design Centers, 14 specialty stores, and other grandiose, empire-building acquisitions. What remains is a company with roughly 350,000 employees, 2,238 stores around the world, and sales of more than $71 billion annually. After two years on the job, Home Depot’s unlikely savior is still almost anonymous enough to pose as a shopper when he visits his stores. The story of how Frank Blake and his colleagues turned the company around is a tale with lessons for us all. It’s as if Blake had stopped an explosion in mid-blast and turned it around, nestling all the fragments gently back into place. New Word City, publishers of digital originals, contributes 10 percent of its profits to literacy causes.
