Careless whisperer

There is nothing more detrimental to an organization, than a whisperer.

Characteristics of a whisperer:

• Conducts discussions with select team members after group meetings
• Speaks general ideas without valid cases i.e. “This product doesn’t work. What doesn’t work? Everything.”
• Disagrees with team members (people) instead of ideas.
• Dislikes the CC: function, “Let’s keep this between you and me”.
  

If you spot one, find a remedy – quickly.

Delegate Authority

If you're in management, think about the following statements on delegating.

"Many leaders delegate responsibilities, where I try to delegate authority. When someone delegates responsibilities, they attract followers. When someone delegates authority, they attract (and build) great leaders." - Craig Groeschel, LifeChurch.tv
