Train a pigeon - new managing videocast & audiocast

The 10th episode in my live video and podcast series deals with helping another human being to live up to their potential. We will examine the prospect that this is a general process not unlike parenting a child or coaching an athlete and learn a number of tactics to nurture the excitement and success of others.

Audio Timeline
00:40 – Introduction
01:08 – Step one: Does this person want to live to standards we do?
02:29 – Step two: Finding an overlap between organizational needs and personal excitement
05:05 – Step three: encouraging success in the overlap
08:48 - Conclusion

Blog Archive

As my blog has grown extensively over the past year, I've created a new dynamic blog archive for those of you who may be looking to dig through the earlier discussions.

Due to the ever-expanding nature of the conversation here, I’ve created this indexing system to help those of you that may be looking for earlier conversations. Click on any of the four main topics below to see their subcategories, and click the subcategories to see the relevant blog posts. Click here or on the x in the top corner at any point to return to the main blog page.

This is a beta version of the interface, and we plan to develop a more refined catgorization scheme but thought this early version would be useful.
