THE CONCEPT OF EFFECTIVENESS

There are a thousand hacking at the branches of evil to one who is striking at the root."Henry David Thoreau"

The leaders who work most effectively, it seems to me, never say "I." And that's not because they have trained themselves not to say "I." They don't think "I." They think "we"; they think "team." They understand their job to be to make the team function. They accept responsibility and don't sidestep it, but "we" gets the credit. This is what creates trust, what enables you to get the task done."

"Effective leadership is putting first things first. Effective management is discipline, carrying it out."Stephen R. Covey

"Efficiency is doing things right; effectiveness is doing the right things."Peter Drucker

"The ''Inside-Out'' approach to personal and interpersonal effectiveness means to start first with self; even more fundamentally, to start with the most inside part of self / with your paradigms, your character, and your motives. The inside-out approach says that private victories precede public victories, that making and keeping promises to ourselves recedes making and keeping promises to others. It says it is futile to put personality ahead of character, to try to improve relationships with others before improving ourselves."Stephen R. Covey

"To increase your effectiveness, make your emotions subordinate to your commitments"Brian Koslow"Concentration is the key to economic results. No other principles of effectiveness is violated as constantly today as the basic principle of concentration."Peter Drucker

"There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all."Peter Drucker"People, like nails, lose their effectiveness when they lose direction and begin to bend."Walter Savage Landor
