Letter from the Lead Navigator:
Thanksgiving is even more meaningful to me this year for several reasons. It has
been one of the busiest years we have experienced in many years. Our relocation
to North Carolina is proceeding at a fast pace. We are now located in the center
of Research Triangle Park in Morrisville, NC. On one side there is SAS, the other
side is CISCO and Eriksson is just down the street. The airport is only 15 minutes
away. No more long waits at the airport and traffic jams in Atlanta. Yea!
There are three things that help me stay thankful and moving forward. I call them
the "Three F's" -- Faith, friends and family. FAITH: My faith gives me hope, knowing
I am not alone and serving a higher purpose for my life. FRIENDS: I have some wonderful
friends who are there when needed. FAMILY: I could not exist if it was not for
my family. My wife and partner Cathy, is a most amazing woman. I could not fit in
this paragraph all the wonderful words that describe her. All of my daughters, their
husbands and my son Garry are outstanding people. The world is a much better place
because of them. I am a most fortunate person.
I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
P.S. If you get a chance, please "Like" my Facebook page. I truly would appreciate
it!

How to Go from Good to Great!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
High Potential Leadership...
There are good leaders today in many companies, but seemingly, there are very few
great leaders. Great leaders attach themselves to a purpose and take others on the
voyage with them. They don't hide or "throw" people under the bus. They inspire
others to great heights, are proactive, persistent, have empathy, good judgment,
initiative, and drive. They are able to respond effectively to the circumstances
presented to them.
When you think about great leaders some people quickly come to mind; Steve Jobs,
Ronald Reagan, Pope John Paul, Mahatma Gandhi, George Washington, Fred Smith, Abraham
Lincoln, Ray Kroc, Winston Churchill, Sam Walton, Nelson Mandela, Jack Welch, Franklin
Delano Roosevelt, Queen Elizabeth I, Henry Ford, Albert Einstein, Bill Gates,
Thomas Edison, Margaret Thatcher, Walt Disney, & Richard Branson. (In no particular
order)
Great leaders are the ones that change the world, an industry, the community, the
company. They have some common attributes that help take them to the next level.
Here are some key attributes that great leaders possess:
* Clear vision, purpose and values
* Self-awareness of strengths & weaknesses
* High Emotional Intelligence, EQ
* Strategy, determination, and execution
* Courage, persistence, resilience, and the ability to drive change
* Inspirational, engaging, responsive, & respectful
* Partnership fostering amongst diverse stakeholders, collaborative management style
* Overcoming seemingly impossible obstacles, adaptable
* Poise under fire
There are other attributes that could be included in this list that great leaders
possess. To me, there is no one single approach for a successful leader. However,
you can develop & enhance your leadership skills based on the list above to take
you from good to great!
Look at each of the key attributes and rate yourself on a scale of 1 to 10. 10 being
the best. You may quickly see areas for improvement.
What attributes do you look for in a high potential leader?
A professional coach can help you focus, identify, and develop yourself into a great
leader.

Manufacturing & Services Hiring Rate Will Hit a Three-Year High
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In a recent survey by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), the hiring
rate in manufacturing and services will rise compared to a year ago.
The survey examined four key areas: Recruiting high-level talent, New-Hire compensation,
Employers expectations, and Job vacancies.
Recruiting challenges:
Manufacturing -1.2% Services +10.0%
New-hire compensation:
Manufacturing -4.0% Services -2.6%
Employment expectations:
Manufacturing +1.7% Services +18.4%
Job vacancies:
(Salary & hourly job openings increase in both sectors compared with last year)Manufacturing
+2.0% Services +14.7%
Research is showing that more work is being created and fewer jobs are being lost.
This looks like it will continue through the rest of the year.
