Managers should understand there are some simple things they can do tomorrow that will make a big difference in their culture, but so few managers do them.

As human beings we have a tendency to filter out information that does not match up with our preconceived beliefs, including the supremacy of our organization.

I was able to study 50 years of leadership theory and practicum in my master's program at Seton Hall, and it has provided the backbone of the knowledge we use every day. My undergraduate work was in journalism, and my early work as a newspaper reporter taught me how to research, write, and rewrite.

I think that many managers we meet do take their roles as leaders very seriously and do a lot for their people. And they try to hone their skills by reading books and attending training.
