The selection of  a leader with the correct  leadership traits depends on understanding your environment.  And the environment such as type of organization, team demographics, mission, and goals will determine the leader.

restaurant leadership in westchester ny: MOTIVATION IS THE KEY TO GOAL ACHIEVEMENT - 12/04/16 09:45 PM
You cannot motivate someone to achieve. The only thing you can do is create a spark that will build the fire of motivation from within. That inner fire will drive motivation.
What about you? Do you have something burning inside you? Frankly, if you do not have the WHY the HOW will not matter. We can also refer to that WHY as your PASSION.
Motivation and goal achievement are interrelated. Knowing what motivates you is a key to achievement and knowing how to find motivation in others is a key to leadership. Dwight Eisenhower said that leadership is getting others to do … (25 comments)

If you have a dream it will not be realized unless you take action. You will need to put that dream in action with a time table.  But before you take action you need a blueprint. These blueprints are called your goals.  There are several very important steps to goal achievement.

restaurant leadership in westchester ny: THE BUSINESS COUNCIL OF WESTCHESTER'S CIRCLES OF INFLUENCE - 10/18/16 01:52 AM
In my opinion the Business Council of Westchester is the premier membership organization in Westchester County.  For those who wonder about the name it used to be called the County Chamber of Commerce.  That means it is a regional chamber promoting business and business advocacy to the entire county and the region.
It is the largest organization and most of the large corporations are members.  I am proud to be a member and an ambassador.
Now it is your opportunity to see what is all about.
 
Circles of Influence will be held Wednesday night, October 19, 2016, 5 to 7 pm at The Castle … (27 comments)

restaurant leadership in westchester ny: HOW TO AVOID GETTING STRESSED OUT - 09/25/16 01:44 PM

If you are feeling stressed out you are not alone.  I asked the question of some Westchester County business owners.  Many feel overworked and overwhelmed.
To be sure the pace of business has changed.  Real Estate agents know that only too well in the fast market with rapid communication. Technology, while automating things that used to take much more time has also created new pressure. Instant communication on handheld devices gives us the sense of urgency and feeling that we must always be working. Everything seems to go faster, leaving everyone feeling overworked, overloaded, and overwhelmed.  
Some people may suggest that this … (35 comments)

restaurant leadership in westchester ny: SEVEN HABITS OF HIGHLY EFFECTIVE LEADERS - 04/17/16 01:05 PM

Steven Covey wrote a book about seven habits of highly effective people.  I work with people who are leaders or want to become leaders.  There are many examples of what not to do. 
Proper business leadership is crucial to the success of any business of any size. No company can be more successful than the effectiveness of its leaders. If the head of a company lacks positive leadership qualities, he or she will be unsuccessful motivating and leading the staff. This in turn will result in lost customers and business opportunities.
Leadership is complex and what works well in one environment may … (64 comments)

restaurant leadership in westchester ny: IF YOU WANT A GREAT TEAM LOOK IN THE MIRROR - 01/17/16 10:28 AM
In order to have a high performing team you need to look in the mirror and ask, “Am I a person who inspires and encourages others?”  
In other words what type of leader are you. If you are not sure why not ask the people around you to give you some guidance. And if you have employees make sure you ask them.   Ask them what they feel is your biggest leadership challenge and what you can do to improve it. Asking others for their opinions conveys respect, shows that you value their feedback and increases your credibility as a leader. Of … (23 comments)
