Preserving Capital and building an Entrepreneurial Spirit
Leo Ardine is the CEO of a successful credit union in New Jersey. It would not be overstating it to say they have weathered considerable change in the last year.The turbulent financial services world has brought excruciating pressure to bear on his organization. In the midst of the chaos he charged a group with clearly articulating where the business needs to be focused. It was refresing to hear that this group did not identify the typical stuff but rather focused on two things….two things I might add that are not always typical of financial institutions. The first was preserve capital the second was build an entrepreneurial spirit at all levels in the organization. Now the work moves to identifying the specific behaviors that those goals demand.
Many of us are good at identifying some nice sounding goal but often we find it difficult to clearly articulate what it LOOKS like in practice. Bravo to Leo and the team for not only indentifying key focus areas but for pursuing clear behavioral indicators so that their progress can be measured.
In your business and personal life to what extent are your goals and ideas clearly measurable in behavioral change?

Hey there I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed reading your blog but it’s taking a while to load up for me. I don’t have a slow internet connection either, so I think it may be your site? Or maybe there is just a lot of people trying to load up right now, either way I advise you look into it and also, keep up the nice blog posts.

Completely understand what your stance in this matter. Although I would disagree on some of the finer details, I think you did an awesome job explaining it. Sure beats having to research it on my own. Thanks

If talent is innate, does that lessen the impact of coaching? That is, if the best players are naturally talented, is there any point in trying to make the other (number for argument’s sake) 80-90% of players as good as the natural talents?
