Leadership501
Leadership501 is a site full of articles about leadership. I created it to be a reference for people looking to improve their leadership skills. I have found that much of the current leadership writing either focuses on being inspirational or very theoretical, so my goal is to try to create something that is practical and useful. Something along the lines of “Here is how to handle situation X and why you should handle it that way.”
Today I ran across a blog with a post that was linking to the site with some good things to say about one of my articles. Jason says he liked my article enough that he read the entire thing. I’m glad he liked it because when I was writing that particular article I remember thinking, “This is pretty long. I wonder if anyone will actually read the whole thing?” I decided that even if no one read it I need to write it for myself.
In his post he makes some good points about setting goals and walks the reader through his goal setting process. It is worth reading. I like where he said that in the initial stage the only “rule” is that if he thinks it, he writes it down. Anyway it is worth a read and his blog is one I’ll be adding to my RSS feeder.
