It’s five answers to five questions. Here we go…. 1. I’m being fired and don’t know why. After three years of working at my company, I was told “we are not a good fit” and my last day will be July 1. They will be paying me through August 15. They have told me I can say whatever I want about my separation, and they will provide me with a good reference.

A couple of months ago, I wrote a post about how individuals can change company culture. I later received a note on Twitter with a great question: A change in company culture = A change in leadership. You can’t change the leopard’s spots right?! . At first glance, I would say “yes.” We often talk about how senior management sets the tone of the organization.

Many of these things are related — when there’s high employee turnover and absenteeism, customers are less likely to get a consistent experience, and will be less engaged with the brand as well. “Do you expect to

I'm sending fewer emails as time goes by. Part of that is an incredible ramp in the number or texts I send ( see my personal text and data stats here from my smartphone ), part of it is the reduced level of immediacy you get from sending email. People ignore your email. More to the point, people are overwhelmed by email. How many times have you stopped by the desk of someone you know is a highly organized individual and observed that they have 5,000+ emails in their inbox?

Thanks to our business heritage of industrialization, which gave birth to the practice of modern management, we’ve spent the last 100 years (or more) employing strategies designed to get more out of less. And we’ve been remarkably successful in this quest. But along the way, our workplaces lost their heart. The most costly result of our quest for efficiency has been that too many leaders have divorced productivity from the human beings doing the work.

Ever been presented with a litany of options only to find yourself disappointed by the results? As Dr. Seuss shows, too many options is not always a good thing. Growing up, I was a big fan of Dr. Seuss books – I Wish I Had Duck Feet and Green Eggs and Ham were personal favorites. My interest was renewed once I had kids. So I was thrilled when a previously unpublished Seuss book had been discovered.

Microsoft’s purchase of LinkedIn for $26.2 billion was big news, but The New York Times has theorized a non-public reason for the sale: LinkedIn’s compensation problems. It seems that LinkedIn gave a huge percentage of its compensation in stock. While many people enjoy this-if the company you work for does well, you can have a sweet retirement-if the company does poorly, it can be a huge problem.
