LeaderWARE @F-L-O-W is being validated every time I turn around;)
How u get those high talent (for the role–fine print most people will miss in the article 😉 managers and develop them is clearly present in LeaderWARE;)
This year’s retreat will focus on a coaching integration.
DEEP COACHING is fundamental to Performance Management Systems, even when you include and orchestrate self-coaching into the process.
Come join us after Xmas and before New Years for an intense learning experience.

Great Managers Can Fix Broken Performance Management Systems
Excellent performance management requires more than metrics. Managers with high talent are key, too.
Some of us have been on this band wagon for some time…its cost less energy to go from 85 to 70, then from 20-50 to 70…
Sun cycles are by FAR more important than CO2…animals and humans produce more CO2 than most else…
If we don’t get cooling the methane trapped will cripple the system anyway…nature is smart…
We are focused on the WRONG things as always…IMHO

Britain Headed Back to a Mini Ice Age
by Martin Armstrong
We have been warning that the danger is by no means Global Warming, but Global Cooling. The energy output of the Sun has turned down. Now real scientists are warning that what we have reported is crashing rapidly. The collapse in the energy output of the Sun is so intense, Climate experts are now warning that the […]

This is the kicker:
Change!
As I’ve ranted previously, accelerating complexity (AC) is not something most will be happy living with…leaving us with “dimensional” fractionalization” and that is going to be the greatest source of conflict as “values” attempt to scale the cliff of AC.

“Hardest to accept, though, is the moral premise implied throughout the encyclical: that the only legitimate human relationships are based on compassion, harmony and love, and that arrangements based on self-interest and competition are inherently destructive.”

Nice piece:
“Today, Europe faces three converging crises that are ultimately about national borders, what they mean and who controls them. These crises appear distinct: Immigration from the Islamic world, the Greek economic crisis and Ukraine would seem to have little to do with each other. But in fact they all derive, in different ways, from the question of what borders mean.
Europe’s borders have been the foundation both of its political morality and of its historical catastrophes. The European Enlightenment argued against multi-national monarchies and for sovereign nation-states, which were understood to be the territories in which nations existed. Nations came to be defined as groupings of humans who shared a common history, language, values and religion — in short, a common culture into which they were born. These groups had the right of national self-determination, the authority to determine their style of government and the people who governed. Above all, these nations lived in a place, and that place had clear boundaries.”
IMHO
Under fractionalization which maintains the separate sovereign nation-states people have much more of a choice about their political destiny,
The “attempt” to create a “one-world” government modeled by the European Union will fail NOT because of money, but because fractionalization is natural.
