Come follow my latest project, LeadershipHaiku, on Twitter, at @LeadershipHaiku and at http://www.leadershiphaiku.com/.   

// LeadershipHaiku / offering leadership tweets / in five, seven, five. //

Okay, here’s the rationale: There are soooo many books about leadership development these days that it’s virtually impossible to read them all. And even if you have the inclination to try, who has the time for that?!

In contrast, LeadershipHaiku is specifically designed for today’s attention-challenged professionals – it’s written in Twitter-format, meaning that every lesson is less than 140 characters … including spaces!!

Each Leadership Lesson is also written in Haiku format – that is, // 5 / 7 / 5 // – making it a unique and clever way to learn, unlike anything you’ve ever tried before.

What qualifies me, Barry Zweibel, to write about Leadership like this? As a noted executive coach and leadership consultant, and president of GottaGettaCoach!, Inc. (GGCI), I engage smart, capable, people in meaningful conversations about their personal growth and professional development. And as someone who works daily to help people face the issues that challenge them most, I KNOW that setting the right tone for learning is essential.

So it’s not by sheer happenstance that each LeadershipHaiku is designed to be fun to read, too!

So follow along below, on Twitter (www.twitter.com/LeadershipHaiku) or at http://www.leadershiphaiku.com/, and see if you don’t learn a thing or two about Leadership, Life … and counting syllables!! And remember:

// Sharing these Haiku / will help others learn and grow / which is the whole point. //

Some Samples:

// Be there for your team / in victory AND defeat / they’ll respect you more. //

// “A” players are great / but your “B” and “C” players / will drive your success. //

// You know what to do / but that’s really not the point / let THEM run with it. //

// Your reputation / as a leader of others / will outlast your stay. //
