Whether it's not doing enough to recognize constituents or explain your mission to them, or whether it's not getting enough media coverage, "detailed, living, breathing action is essential" to turning the situation around, he writes.

These questions include "Does top management exhibit genuine concern for employees' well-being?" and "Do employees feel their work is valued?" SmartBrief/SmartBlog on Leadership (5/23)        Leadership Focus  Why good leaders create leaders, not followers The best bosses bring out the leadership qualities in their workers, writes Robyn Benincasa, and develop teams of people with different but complementary leadership styles. That's valuable because some situations call for authoritative or coercive leadership, while others call for emotional sensitivity and a more nurturing approach. "When we share leadership, we're all a heck of a lot smarter, more nimble and more capable in the long run," Benincasa argues. Fast Company online (5/29)      Just say "no" and 8 other strategies for achieving work-life balance You can improve your work-life balance by trying not to think about work once you're finished for the day, writes Lindsay Olson of Paradigm Staffing. "Decide when you are shutting off and then actually do it." You should also try to become more organized at work and be willing to decline activities that don't interest you, she recommends. U.S. News & World Report/On Careers blog (5/29)        Good leadership starts with showing up The first thing any leader should do is simply turn up for work, says Marie Johns, deputy administrator of the U.S. Small Business Administration. Putting in plenty of face time with workers, both in your office and by walking the corridors, is crucial to tackling big problems and keeping everyone engaged, Johns argues. "Part of providing leadership is 'walking the talk' and being available," she explains. The Washington Post (5/30)      Other News Would your workers tell you if you had a dumb idea?

стеклянные дверикак одно целое
Двери из стекла, или дверные стеклопакеты, как их называют, широко используются для входных дверей. Теперь они не уступают в прочности и оснащении техническими, защитными устройствами. Стеклянные двери прекрасно добавляют в общую картину интересные детали.
Как же добиться высокой прочности для стеклянных дверей?
Технология производства закаленного стекла позволяет в несколько раз увеличить его прочностные характеристики, к тому же это  стекло называют «безопасным», подобно триплексу. Из-за высокой прочности закаленного стекла, стеклянные двери дают высокий уровень безопасности.

В жизни каждого из нас рано или поздно случаются важные перемены: переезды, ремонты, перестройки жилья. И если вы хотите придать своей квартире неповторимый вид или защитить ее от постороннего вмешательства, желательно купить новые двери.  Двери межкомнатные стеклянные окончательно разграничат площадь квартиры и завершат создание личного пространства для каждого члена семьи, в то же время высокопрочные входные двери станут надежным охранником.
