    Lathren on Leadership Episode 66 - Camaraderie at Work

When we know each other as people, and not just workers, we work together better. We connect, cooperate, and support because we have more knowledge and interest in our employees. Relationships generate better results. It is a proven fact.

    Every leader will encounter a troublemaker at some time in their leadership experience. We know that 8% of the workforce are low performers....so there are many of them out there. Identify them. Coach them hard. They get better - or they get out.

    Fear is a fact of a leader's life. For a leader to say "I'm never afraid" either means they don't know or don't care. Or both. Included are some real moments of courage.
