Leadership books or leadership development books?

The teammate murderer (Heatley) just tied it for Canuckistan. :rolleyes:

Apologies for taking the Box into Omni P/R territory, but tonight's reading in church was from Deuteronomy 26:5.

"My father was a wandering Aramean...."

:D

At least the screen shot of hockey leadership included a number of beers :D

Sharpening my own leadership skills. It's been a while since I have had a significant number of people reporting to me.

Thats basically how it went with the exception of the F cabin request. Dont think she has ever flow F and would love to put her up there but not on a mid-con, waste of miles.

The problem is she wants to fly from Houston - Hobby Airport - because that is more convenient for her. There are no non-stops to EWR from HOU. :p

ETA: She will let us know a week before she wants to come and there wont be any "reasonable" mileage tickets available and there will be a stupid fee for booking a close in reward.

There's always B6 into JFK. ;)

I use some of Peter Northouse's books to help individuals understand facets of leadership (and that leadership is context dependent). I'm wary of books that suggest there's "one way" or don't have individuals consider their own development. I might request a copy of Maxwell in order to see his approach.

Team USA is really not that fond of playing positionally correct defense.

Greetings from the Westin in Charlotte. Last minute rebooking, thanks carsonheim for the heads up on that promo!

Going to order room service, then settle in and watch the hockey.

Olympic Hockey fail. I thought the game was going to be on NBC. No MSNBC at the Westin. :mad: I guess there still time to catch the 3rd period at a bar. Later, Box.

I'm wary of Maxwell because of the Biblical references in the reviews. I'm not a fan of mixing religious approaches with anything else.

Happy belated birthday, Windwalker! Hope it was a great day but not sure how you could top the DMV and slumber party ;)

icurhere2 Feb 21, 2010 6:59 pm

I don't think I've ever seen three teammates run over each other.

Then you probably don't want to read Maxwell.

Sorry the Westin rooms have no MSNBC. That channel saves me many nights at Hyatt Place.
