“The best executive is the one who has sense enough to pick good men to do what he wants done, and self-restraint to keep from meddling with them while they do it.”
Theodore Roosevelt

What is morale?• In the workplace, morale is more of an
individual thing than something measured by departments. Events play a large part in morale, such as heavy layoffs, the cancellation of overtime, canceling benefits programs, and the influence of unions. Other events can also influence workplace morale, such as sick building syndrome, low wages, and employees being mistreated

“Use theposition todevelop yourleadership/administrativeSkills”
Ronald D. Franks, M.DRush University

Accountability• When part of a team, everyone should
be responsible for their actions.• Don’t be afraid to admit your frailties but
make every intent to correct them.Accountability is like a relay race…when one member does not perform well it effects the whole rhythm of the team which causes it’s members to fall short in performance.
