Leadership Wisdom from the Field

Dear Embark Community Member,

May I get a quote from you about a result you achieved in 2006 due to strategic changes you implemented, or a leadership lesson you learned, for inclusion in our new 'Leadership Wisdom from the Field' article?

Please submit your quote at:
http://www.zoomerang.com/survey.zgi?p=WEB225Z6E3CUZF

Here's how it works:

If chosen, your mini-story -- in your own words -- will be published in our 1st annual 'Leadership Wisdom from the Field' featured article in March, 2007.

The featured article will be distributed to our global community of readers in our March 2007 newsletter and posted here on the community. You can include your name and a hotlink URL or you can submit anonymously.

Your quote can be short or long, but it must be based on a real-life experience of your own. Here are some suggestions:

• The story of a new system solution that worked better (or worse) than expected.
• What you learned about specific tactics, such as sharing your strategic objective and financial goals with employees, letting go of a key employee that was not open to change, or shifting your role from being the technician to the manager or entrepreneur in your business.
• Customer Experience stories -- from to turning a customer complaint into a compliment to dealing with extremely demanding clients.

The deadline for quotes is Jan. 15th, 2007. Here's the link to submit your mini-story for publication:

Thanks so much,

P.S. I think that much of the value in submitting a story is in just sitting back for a moment and thinking over your year. It's astonishing how many lessons you learn that you forget later in your deluge of ongoing work.

I truly believe that every business owner has learned at least one lesson this year that will benefit others, if you only tell it. Here's your platform to share your experience with the community -- and also to learn from the valuable experiences from others.
