"What Makes an Effective Executive"...

"What Makes an Effective Executive"...
Great managers may be charismatic or dull, generous or tightfisted, visionary or numbers oriented. But every effective executive follows eight simple practices.

1. They asked, “What needs to be done?”
2. They asked, “What is right for the enterprise?”
3. They developed action plans
4. They took responsibility for decisions.
5. They took responsibility for communicating
6. They were focused on opportunities rather than problems
7. They ran productive meetings
8. They thought and said “we"rather than “I.”
