Have CIA Operatives Infiltrated Your Business?
Joseph F Paris Jr
Do you ever wonder why things don't get done as quickly as they should? Do things get lost in the shuffle? Perhaps you find that you have to more closely supervise the people who are supposed to be doing the work? Are decisions never made because they are perpetually being discussed? Does work stop because someone forgot to do something?

Up Scope - The Look Around
By Bob Koonce
Managing Risk is certainly something all leaders at all levels must learn how to master. You can create probability versus outcome matrices, Key Performance Indicators, stop light charts, risk registers, Monte Carlo probability analyses, etc. Risk Management can become very complex if you want. But, the most critical skill in risk management, especially for developing leaders, is learning how to identify the risks coming at you in the first place. Otherwise, you have the infamous "unknown unknowns" as Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld so eloquently put it.

"There Is ALWAYS More Than ONE Truth"... Or Is There?
By Jay Bitsack
As far back as I can remember in my career, which is actually to the beginning - many decades ago, my attention and efforts have been devoted to finding ways to improve the operational performance of an organization. In the beginning, those efforts were typically focused on mission-critical parts of the organization. And in this capacity, I was witness to a wide range of approaches that could be drawn upon as needed to accomplish the objective at hand. As time when on - maybe a decade or so into my career, the scope of my efforts expanded and I not only became a witness to the advent of a number of "new and improved" approaches to achieving higher-order levels of performance, but also a contributor.
