- Give Compliments - everyone wants to use talents to create value...and get regular pats on the back
- Embrace Communication - especially listening; especially not criticizing
- Show desire for industry leadership; embrace differences and change-for-the-better
- Show excitement around not-Routine work: nurture curiosity; build skills for innovation and creativity

- Nip performance problems in the bud: it's about courage, confidence, conviction & communication
- Don't fall into the attribution-bias trap: keep egos, especially your own, in check
- Don't confuse personality mismatch with role/task incompetence
- Train the brain: the leader's job is thinking; thinking is the catalyst for progress...think...pass it on
