Leadership Lessons for the 21st Century

Correct There are some leadership lessons for managers in the business world

Which for the 21st century. The most important lesson is to treat the people which

41 you do business with as if they were members of your family own.

42 Prosperity depends on to how much understanding one receives from

43 the people with whom one conducts business. Remember that

44 after-sales service is more important rather than assistance before sales.

45 It is through such service so that one gets permanent customers. Don't

46 sell customers goods that they are attracted to. Sell them goods that

47 will benefit them from. To be out of stock is due to carelessness. If this

48 happens up, apologize to the customers, ask for their addresses, and tell

49 them that you will deliver the goods on immediately. It's not enough

50 to work conscientiously. No matter what kind of job, you should

51 think of yourself as being completely down in charge of and responsible

52 for your own self work. If we cannot make a profit, that means we are committing a sort of crime against society. We take society's capital, we take their people, we take their materials, yet without a good profit, we are using precious resources that could be better used elsewhere.

The region's best smaller companies

Once again, readers of this magazine have the chance to vote for the region's best companies. (0)The awards will be presented at a dinner in Birmingham on May 17.

The pattern established in the first year, of awards for Best Established Company, Best New Company and Best Entrepreneur, will of course continue. However this year sees a new category, that of Best Communication with Investors. 【8】______

The Established Company of the Year will be one whose success has lasted for more than just a couple of months or years. Its share price will be performing above the average for its sector, but that is not the only measurement which will be taken into account. 【9】______ Above all, the winner will be professionally managed, in a way that deals equally well with good and bad trading conditions.

The New Company of the Year 'will have gone public last year, but will already have shown its growth and management qualities. 【10】______ In fact three early winners have already been successful in this second category, as well.

The Entrepreneur of the Year will be someone with a proven track record of expertise in setting up and providing leadership to one or possibly more businesses. He or she will have created an organisation that can deal with the demands placed on it as a public company. 【11】______ The winner will have maintained a balance between that original energy and the need to adapt as the company grows.

In our new category, Best Communication with Investors, the winning company will show that it is engaging in two-way dialogue with both actual and potential investors. 【12】______ All of these communication channels will be carefully tailored for the intended audience. In addition, the company is likely to distribute press releases by electronic means, to maximise its opportunities for publicity.
