Your executive and management staff have risen to their respective
positions because they’re driven, they’re accountable
and they’re responsible. At least that’s what they’re
supposed to be. That’s why you hired them. Through
their words and deeds, whether heard, seen or unseen, they’ve
accomplished much with a strong will, an independent spirit and
self-determination.
Leave the Cowboys Wherever They Left
Their Horses
Unfortunately, some of those same “superstars”
ride into town with a cowboy mentality that’s better off
left with its equine counterparts.
The problem might be “Foot-In-Mouth Disease,” bullying
behavior, or just plain old-fashioned ignorance; it might be one
mistake or a pattern of bad judgment. Either way, before it’s
too late, counsel these performers on simple procedural and personnel
matters that will avert and avoid potentially explosive situations
neither you nor they want. There can be red flags everywhere that
even the best players - with all their good intentions and healthy
ambitions - may not even know exist.
