Herman School of Business
Lead, Follow...or Get Out Of The Way!
Let’s trot this old axiom out for an update. No, I didn’t coin this phrase, but I have been in many training sessions where it was the topic for discussion. How is it relevant today?
Lead means take a stand…start a business…show the way…run for office…begin an initiative that helps others…it is a call for action to those who have the skills to demonstrate to others what needs to be done. If you own a business be strong, take a stand, and lead your company through the issues holding you back.
My way to lead you now is to send you to a new resource…actually a dream come true.
www.HermanUniversity.com has now been launched. This is the result of three years of networking with business leaders, national organizations, authors, bloggers, other speakers, and countless people who have written, called or met me at an event. Herman University is a virtual place for educating, inspiring, challenging, and gathering for all business minded people. It is a place by entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs.
There will be articles, interviews, podcasts, videos, free books, and a forum to talk with others as you seek answers to your questions and the secrets to success. Please visit the site, sign up for the free newsletter and please subscribe if possible ($1 per month makes it a priceless bargain) or send someone else a subscription as a gift.
Follow. We all need to follow at times. But please do so as an informed person. Follow those who can take you closer to your goals and ambitions. Too many people want to be at the front of the parade at all times…smart people realize it is OK to march with the crowd.
Probably the most important aspect of being a good follower is to believe in the idea, the person, or the philosophy you have chosen to chase.
Or…Get Out Of The Way! It doesn’t just mean move aside. It means think about whether your project is calling you to be a leader or if you are following someone else at your business…is that what you want to continue doing? Simply put…maybe it’s time to abandon this business, this project, or this pursuit of whatever is occupying your life.
Maybe the world is telling you to move on and try something else.
Heed this advice. And visit www.HermanUniversity.com as soon as you can.
