The Allied Forces had just won a quick and decisive victory in the first Gulf War. The efficiency and the effectiveness of the forces were notable. One of our principals was watching CNN interview one of the Generals in Saudi Arabia . The General who shared his observations and analysis on why the Allied Forces were so successful commented: The chain of command has empowered the armed forces in the field to get the job done. Decisions are being made at the battle front, not by the brass in Washington . Now thats enlightened leadership. Three years later, the book was published by Simon & Schuster. The book is in its 31st printing and has sold over 230,000 copies worldwide. What weve learned is a profound demonstration about the power of human capital, and unleashing that power is at the very core of our work. Philosophy of Enlightened Leadership Solutions We believe that people are the cornerstone to success. People are the single biggest opportunity to realize performance gains without expending or investing in additional resources. Attitude, alignment, communication, focus and commitment are critical differentiators between those who thrive and those who just survive. We consistently find that individuals, teams, and organizations who execute these areas well, out-perform those who may have more technical knowledge or talent. We believe that what makes people tick doesnt change much from company to company. The behavior that is driven by management philosophy, culture, process, systems, procedures, and structure is unique to each organization. Research has concluded that cultural alignment is a significant factor behind failed mergers and executive retention. Much of the knowledge we have gained over the years will impact individual performance. Organizational performance is further dependent on what, how, and when that knowledge is applied to those unique organizational factors. We also believe that innovation and knowledge transference is critical and that the greatest measure of our success is how fast organizations integrate and apply the capabilities that we initially provide them. Our goal is to create independence, not dependence on us for success. We are a catalyst and guide for change, not the holder of the process. The more organizations are accountable for success, the greater and more sustaining the performance improvements. Developing that accountability is an important part of our work.

2. Thank you Ed. The real life example applied is totally reliables to all aspects of life. We often don't reflect enough on the long term consequences of our behaviour and the costs we incur. The distinction in management and leadership is vital to understand. This presentation and your shared experience has refreshed that lesson for me.

12. Great Video! I love how you broke down the leadership and management sides into the hard and soft parts of the organizational process. I agree with the fact that the soft side of the leadership being the harder of the two to deal with and the fact that you need both leadership and management to be successful. One cannot function without the other but the big difference that I didn't hear mentioned is the fact that leadership is what will either make or break any company.
13. good topic to choose management vs leadership. thanks
14. Productivity is a result of Efficiency, and not energy efficiency like some are talking right now, but COMPLETE Efficiency... if you don't know the Baselines of your business how can you improve it?... if your Equipment isn't kept and operated properly how can you depend on it?... if your organization has no good workers communication & training how can you get people to do the right things?... get it? Process, Equipment, Personnel, the core elements.... get the Industrial Efficiency Triangle.
