“According to Gallup’s 2013 State of the American Workplace report, 50% of employees merely put their time in, while the remaining 20% act out their discontent in counterproductive ways, negatively influencing their coworkers, missing days on the job, and driving customers away through poor service. Gallup estimates that the 20% group alone costs the U.S. economy around half a trillion dollars each year”.

I just read this in an article focused on leadership development that should "connect closely to market realities" (HBR-Blue Ocean Leadership). The article’s authors wrote “Blue Ocean Strategies”, published in 2005, and it appears they are expanding their concept into the leadership development realm. 

I recommend the HBR article. And here is what really caught my attention: “Distribute leadership across all management levels”.  Wow, I’ve been talking about this for years, and many of my clients “get it”. If you want to learn more go to www.topviewleadership.com where you will find our “Middle Managers Leadership Coaching Program” I strongly believe, as do the HBR authors, that today’s and tomorrow’s organizations need leaders at all levels to be successful.

What are you doing to develop your Middle Managers? Let’s talk!
