Chapter 3 Being a Power Professional Leader

Now we are getting to the fun part.  Action Plans.  Write down your dreams and goals.

Dream>Goal>3 Objectives> 3 Strategies. Linda gives the reader an excellent example in growing tomatoes.

3.2 Creativity

p.128 I agree with the statement that “If you can write a very clear statement about the problem, it is almost solved.”

3.3 Verbal Communication

Almost every business I worked in or consulted with, the number one complaint of employees is lack of communication.

People want to know what is going on, what is expected out of them.  They don’t like hearing about it through the news on TV or the office grapevine.

Speak Slowly is very important but one aspect that I have a difficult time with because I want to get it over.   Even though I enjoy speaking engagements, I am always happy when they are done.  Like Linda, I keep saying I should join a toastmasters, the difference is, Linda joined one.

Conclusion  p. 144 -150. I think Linda’s conclusion is a helpful cheat sheet to practice what you learned.  You might want to take it out of the book and keep it on your desk.
