As the year starts to wind down it’s time to reflect back on the year and take a good look at ourselves as business leaders.

It’s an opportunity for us to evaluate what we’ve achieved this year and identify what we’re going to do differently in 2012 to make it an even better year!

Here at Exact we thought it would be pertinent to reflect back on our blogs over the last six months and highlight the common leadership errors that we assist our clients to address. Being aware of these errors and avoiding them will assist you in your pursuit of demonstrating great leadership!

In today’s world you don’t get what you ask for, you get what you negotiate!

Everybody wants to know “What’s in it for me?” So for you to get what you want, you need to be prepared to negotiate with the people you work with and those you do business with.

I have been involved in negotiating a number of opportunities of late and thought it may be useful to share with you ten steps that I use to enable me to effectively negotiate.

“No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it. We must learn to see the world anew.” Einstein

I don’t know if this resonates with you, but I find that when I think about wanting things to be better I often fall into a ‘problem solving’ mode?!  It seems so logical, productive and functional to go straight into that mode.

_Praise may seem to some people to be a little unnecessary.

After all people should do what they are supposed to do. They are being paid to do a job, they should help in the home, or share family responsibilities.  But most people thrive on being praised.  Something that can be given so easily can make all the difference to a persons motivation levels, confidence and job satisfaction.
