Where’s The Passion

Some organisations concentrate almost exclusively on the numbers, on pushing sales, on improving efficiency and productivity.

It is good to do this but sometimes those organisations forget the passion.  What drove the business at the start was the passion and belief of the entrepreneurs who started the business.. That passion needs to continue, to underly the consistency of mission and vision, to inspire and motivate staff.

Don’t throw out the passion when you bring in the logic.  The business needs you to be a good manager but it also needs you to be a strong leader.
