Uses of Software Utilities
October 12, 2009 at 3:00 pm

Software utilities are used to resolve problems, make configurations and manage programs in the operating system. There are many software utilities on the market and their functionality can range from simple activities as copying simple files from external storage devices to complex ones that manage the registry, clean junk files and modify system properties. Some of the most useful utilities are the ones that automate routine troubleshooting in systems. Some of these can be used to diagnose system configuration issues, offer recommendations and do a bunch of things. Since most of these are commercially produced, they come with easy-to-use graphic user interfaces, check boxes and the like.

In most cases, when it comes to system configurations, most of the software utilities are able to offer access to registry, environmental settings and system start up options. Other utilities just provide additional capabilities to the operating system. Disk deframenters are one group of software utilities that can detect files on the hard disk that are fragmented and can thus move those fragments together to increase the overall efficiency. The purpose of any disk defragmenting software is one; to minimize head travel time and maximize transfer rate. Disk cleaners are other utilities that are used to find and remove unnecessary files that take up considerable space on the hard disk. The cleaning process involves searching and analyzing the hard drive and deletion of any files found. Some common files that are found by the disk cleaner software utilities include temporary internet files, recycle bin files, setup log files, optional windows components and files left behind from an uninstallation. This list is not exhaustive and can include a bunch of other file types.

File managers are some of the most useful software utilities out there. These provide a convenient method of deleting, cataloging, copying, merging, renaming, generating and modifying data on the hard disk. Some file managers provide network connectivity and allow a user to remotely create, rename, search, delete or otherwise alter remote files using a number of methods. There are different types of file managers. Some of these include file-list mangers, directory editors, navigational file managers and orthodox file managers. A good example of a navigational file manger is the Windows Explorer. In Mac OS X, the Finder is an example of a navigational file manger.

Other software utilities include system profilers, anti-virus utilities, cryptographic utilities, network mangers and text editors. These software applications make management and configurations easy for an average computer user.


Where is Software Development failing?
October 12, 2009 at 3:00 pm

With the recession continuing to take a heavy toll on everybody and everything, the software product development teams seem to have taken some measures to cope with it. However, the question that comes up is; have these measures compromised the quality of software and in some cases, have they contributed to software product development failures all together? Human errors that are avoidable seem to have been one of the consequences of these measures.

Because most development teams do not know what to build, it fails to meet the people's needs, the time and the resources to do research has seemed unnecessary and this has resulted in unclear requirements and the eventual failure of the software. Another measure that companies have been taking is setting up overly unrealistic schedules as well as overly optimistic ones. When a schedule seems unrealistic there is the tendency to skip things or rush through the development cycle. When projects are thus compressed, there is a high chance that some thing will be overlooked or will not be given the needed attention.

The cutting down of executive sponsorship and support has also meant that internal politics and budget cuts will undermine the overall project. This will of course result in sub-standard or poor products. Some software product development teams have also been forced to lay off senior higher paid developers. When senior developers and those with experience leave a project early in its lifetime, this will hurt both the project as well as the company. While this move to cut down on costs seems warranted, it has to be remembered that the future software product development teams of such companies will often be unstable. Senior and more experienced developers take with them a lot of experience that just is not available any other place leaving behind lower-paid workers with less experience. However, when you look at the time lost due to the learning curve and the mistakes of the less experienced developers, it probably negates the savings in the salaries paid. This is the price companies have to pay for making hasty, project-wrecking decisions in a poor economy.

Another foolhardy cutbacks being taken in the software product development projects is skipping testing. While this is an obvious path to software failures, it seems that many companies are using this recessionary cost-saving method to keep their coding teams busy. If this trend continues, it can be expected that embarrassing outages will begin to surface. If companies take note of these project pitfalls and avoid them despite the economy downturn, we can expect to see less software project failures.


Make The Most Of Your Window Air Conditioner Units
October 12, 2009 at 2:59 pm

There are a few ways that you can stay cool in the summer. If you are lucky, you have a home that does not get too hot, or you have central air conditioning that you do not have to give much thought to. If not, you have a few more options, one of which would be window air conditioner units. You may find that a fan cools your home just fine, but these only work so well. Air conditioners for the windows are still popular and they work better than ever. However, there are a few things that you can do to get the most out of them without running up your electric bill too high.

Before thinking about the best ways to run your window air conditioning units, you should understand how they work. You may think that they pull air in from outside, cool it, and then push it inside. This is is only partially right. More precisely, they take the air from the room, ‘condition’ it, and then push that air back into the room. It is almost like sucking the hot out of the air. The Freon in the unit helps to cool the cleaned air out so that it comes out much cooler than when it went in.

One of the biggest mistakes that people make with window air conditioner units is having it run too much and work too hard. These are usually made specifically for a particular amount of space – usually this space is in square feet. If you try to run them for bigger areas, they are going to work too hard to cool that space and they are not going to be effective no matter how hard they work. Keep the room closed off while the air conditioner is working and then turn it off when you are not going to use that room for a while. That saves money and also prolongs the life of your air conditioner.

All window air conditioner units work in the same basic way, but they are all built slightly different. Some are older but still work, and some are so new they do not have the same parts as their predecessors. If your air conditioning unit has filters, you have to pay attention to these. Most of them do, but some are harder to manage than others. Those that get stuffed up will not cool the room like they should. That means your unit will run and run, but it will not offer you much in the way of relief. Change the filters as recommended or when they seem to be clogging up. Some may even freeze over, signifying a bigger problem that you may not be able to fix on your own.

You may not have to worry as much about maintenance on newer window air conditioner units, but you should keep an eye on them. Do not run them all the time, make sure the room is small enough to be cooled by the unit you bought, and give them a once over a few times a year to be sure they are working well and there are no electrical problems that may cause a fire. If you want to cool a bigger space, you have to close off one area and then buy another unit. If you try too big of an area, even the best window air conditioner units will burn out early.


A brief introduction to network infrastructure, the history and modern applications
October 12, 2009 at 2:54 pm

A "net" may be used to signify a pattern, such as the criss-crossing pattern of the  net a fisherman uses to scoop up fish, or the wires that you see running between telephone poles. "Work" implies that some energy has been used or is used to establish the pattern. "Infra" means under or below, and "structure" is something composed of interrelated parts. The infrastructure of a network, then, is the underlying interrelated parts that form a constructed net pattern.

People network. Telephones network. Computers network. In each instance, we mean these communicate, that is, send and receive data or messages in a specified way over some medium that is able to carry the data or messages reliably from sender to receiver. If the communication is one way only, from sender to receiver, we call this communication type simplex. If the communication is two way, with both parties of the communication being able to send and receive messages, we call it duplex communication. Whether simplex or duplex, the hardware, software, protocols and methods people, telephones, computers, or other classes use to communicate messages between each other is the communication’s network infrastructure.

Electronic communications originated with the invention of the telephone. In the case of telephones, two telephones are linked through telephone wires. The link is initially virtual, not direct. The telephone number used to make the call is used by a series of switches, between segments of wire, to create a route for the two telephones to communicate over. The telephone itself has a microphone, that converts the sound waves made when you speak, into electronic pulses that travel over a wire. The telephone also has a speaker that receives electronic pulses and converts these back to sound waves. Two telephones, wires and switches, as well as telephone poles, connectors, and other parts constitute the telephone system’s network infrastructure.

Hardware refers to something material and designed to perform a function. Hardware requirements are only part of what we need for a telephone system. The telephone systems use a protocol for making a connection. First, the receiving telephone must ring before a connection can be established. Then, the person receiving the call must answer the call by picking up the telephone receiver, or perform some other action to signal the system that the person at the other end has answered. Software is not required for a telephone network. The switches the system uses does some decision making, but this logic is hardwired. The telephone system uses other methods and procedures to monitor the network lines. All of these, the wires, switches, protocols and monitoring sub-systems constitute the telephone system’s network infrastructure.

Just as people may communicate over the telephone network infrastructure, computers may also communicate with each other over the telephone network. The telephone network infrastructure is not the only type of network infrastructure computers use to communicate. Local area networks, (LANs), connect computers to each other within a specific locale, such as an office building, with cables that may be attached from one machine to another, or attached to a switch or router that determines which attached computer, or peripheral, such as a printer or fax, is supposed to receive the message. The messages computers send to each other are sent in packets. Commonly accepted standards specify how a message is to be packed. The header of a packet normally contains the address of the computer to which the message is directed. LANs may also be connected to each other with switches or routers, or by high-speed backbone cables. Each LAN of a network of LANs is a sub-net.

A LAN may also feed into a switch or router that is connected to the telephone network infrastructure. Messages may be passed from one LAN over the telephone system to another LAN. This is also called a wide area network (WAN). An intermediate network between a WAN and a LAN is called a Metropolitan Area Network. Typically, cables, infrared communication devices or radio transmitting and receiving devices connect a small community, such as a group of office building.

The cabling, connectors, switches, hubs, nodes and other physical devices are part of the network infrastructure, as are the protocols used for messaging, connecting, securing and monitoring the network. The network infrastructure includes the manner in which the computers and devices are connected, the resource sharing models employed (sneaker, peer to peer, client/server), the topology used (bus, ring, star, mesh), the networks used (public, private) and even the support and administrative personnel. All these and others not mentioned, comprise the network infrastructure, the structure that enables computers and their peripherals to communicate.


How to buy a used car
October 12, 2009 at 2:53 pm

When planning to purchase a car, you definitely want to get the cheapest deal at the highest quality. In fact, when buying used cars, it is possible to get a car for half its original price or even for much less. The problem usually comes with the likelihood of the used car not being in good condition. Since a car's value decreases with age, use and mileage, it is understandable to be concerned and a bit apprehensive when the deal seems to be too good. So what are some things to look at before buying used cars to avoid a rip off?

The first thing to consider is your pocket. How much are you willing to spend on a car? To get a good idea of the cars that fall within your price range, take a look at newspaper ads. Banks and loan institutions will usually have monthly listing guides of used cars. Consult these and see how far your wallet can stretch. Remember also that buying used cars will come with unexpected repairs as well as taxes, insurance and registration fees. Be sure to factor in these extra expenses before buying.

When buying used cars, it is best to avoid cars that have extremely high mileage. This is because as the car ages, it will need more repairs. The repairs that go into a used do not necessarily add to the value of the car. Ordinarily, it is less expensive to go for a used car in good shape than to take a bad car and fix it up, even if its price is much lower. So how do you find out if a used car is good enough to buy? Check the car thoroughly before buying. Look at the interior and exterior of the car. Have they been maintained well? What do the maintenance records show about the car? If they do not exist, likely the car has been neglected.

Before buying used cars, be sure to take a test drive. Drive in a variety of terrains and take note of the engine. Are there noises in the engine? Is there enough power for a good acceleration? If the owner of the car says that the engine just needs a tune-up, be wary. Tune-ups are a regular part of the car maintenance and should have been done often. What about the transmission? Does it shift smoothly? Are there grinding noises in the gears? All these are warning signs of a worn out engine. Other things to look at include the engine oil, the automatic transmission fluid and the brakes and suspension. Be sure to have a professional mechanic take a look at the car. While this may cost you a few extra dollars, it can save you hundreds of dollars of needed repairs in the future.

What Sort of Time Commitment is SEO?
October 9, 2009 at 12:32 am

When it comes to doing SEO for your website, one of the major concerns you may have is how much time and money you’ll need to spend on it. If you’re hiring an SEO firm, then time IS money, and you’ll want to know a rough estimate of how much time the SEO firm will put in and, therefore, charge you for.

You can break down the steps necessary for SEO work, making it easier to judge how much time you or your SEO company will need to spend on each. The estimates given here do not take into account any major issues or technical problems that may arise. You may want to add in a few extra hours to each step to account for any problems that you may have to deal with. If your website is exceptionally large (a thousand pages or more), you may also want to add more time into your estimate.

Step 1: Domain/URL Issues - Two hours to a day

The first thing to do is to go through your website manually and make certain that everything is consistent. You also want to look for things that will cause a search engine robot to have difficulty navigating through your site. If you have a large, dynamic site or a site that brings in a lot of content from other sites that may change often, it may take you more than a couple of hours for this step. Once you’ve completed this step, expect it to take two to four more hours to create and test all of your 301-redirect links. It may also take between two and fifteen hours to rename or re-code any filenames depending on how your site is assessed.

Step 2: - Design issues - two to four hours plus 30 minutes per page

It’s easy to see many design issues, but it can be difficult to make certain that your design is consistent from page to page across your entire website. It may take a few hours to note down every design issue, but it shouldn’t take more than four or five hours. You can often note down these issues while you’re doing your domain/URL assessment, saving a bit of time. How long it takes to implement all of the changes you need to make at this step depends on how many pages you have. At most, you may end up spending half an hour on each page. If you’ve got a huge site, this can add days to your SEO.

Step 3: - Architectural Issues - 125 hours

The most important aspect of your webpage to a search engine is its architecture. While building a list of your architectural concerns can be done while making your other lists, the actual implementation of these changes may take days or weeks. Much of this depends on how dynamic your site is and just how much re-coding is necessary.

Step 4: - Content - half an hour / 250 words

Creating content that is search engine optimized can take a good amount of time, especially if you have a lot of content on your site. One way to save time and money on this step is to do the writing yourself; however, before you jump on that idea, make certain you understand how SEO works. Otherwise, you may do more harm that good. You can also purchase licensed content or rewrite your own content to include keywords.

Believable SEO Solution
October 8, 2009 at 10:40 pm

SEO does not have to be problematical but it requires several work if you map on having your site in the top 10 of major search engines like google, yahoo and msn. Webmasters want to have their Websites on the first page of Google, MSN and Yahoo when their keywords are being searched. Regrettably they believe one of two things. The first thing it is not easy to do it on their own, and the next thing is there is a top secret scam that should have to perform in order to get high rankings. These both proclamations are incorrect.

Webmasters give thousands of dollars to a proficient SEO expert to include their sites on top ten rankings of major search engines. The fact is that you can have top Search Engine Rankings at low cost and doing the work yourself or paying a professional SEO company thousands of dollars to get your Website on the first page. Both will work the choice is yours. If you have that much enough time to do a lot after your site and that kind of understanding you can do it on your own other wise no way to higher a professional SEO or an SEO company.

You have to be enthusiastic to do a lot of tasks of Website Optimization if you want to get success. There is a lot information on the Internet about SEO. Many persons will tell you that to get high rank of your site you have to create and submit many RSS feeds. Some will tell, you need high quality reciprocal links. There is not just one way to get first page on google.

What is necessary for Webmasters in order to get site in Top Rankings? Some consider that if they achieve 3 major tasks of SEO that their Website will soar to the top. I think that no one can get his site with just doing a few work of SEO and get your site in high rank with major search engines.

Entire SEO is your most excellent assurance to get a high ranking on the major search engines. What is complete SEO? Use the ways to get your site noticed on the major search engines like, Press release, classifieds. Do this using your targeted Keywords means get link on your key words which you have targeted for your site. If you really want a top ranking and do not have time to do it on your own then only higher an expert SEO. He will let you know many things which you will need to get your site on the first page of major search engines.

5 Mistakes With Do-it-yourself SEO
October 8, 2009 at 8:40 pm

I look at a lot of sites on a daily basis. There is a lot of common problems I see on the sites. Some people may have tags establishment or misuse of tags that have no real purpose. I have compiled a list of the top 5 do-it-yourself SEO mistakes. It is safe to say that many do-it-yourselfers can have at least one of these errors on their sites. These should help you avoid these costly mistakes and often pull you in the ranks.

1) Keyword tag - Seo Services

A keyword is the beacon of keywords, but not for keywords. You can not just stuff this tag with keywords that your entire site is related. The tags must reflect the keywords only on that particular page, not the entire site and not all of the keywords you think your site could be searched. Also, you should not have more than 20 words in the tag. You should not repeat any word more than 3 times. If you sell tickets, for example, do not write: Broadway tickets, the circus tickets, hockey tickets, boxing tickets, and so forth. Do use Broadway, the circus, hockey, boxing, tickets and so forth.

2) Description tag - It is sometimes used as a replacement for or combined with a description tag. However, more and more people are using these keywords to stuff. Search engines like Google are interested in what is on the page. More specifically, what visitors can see. In my opinion, the abstract tag has no place on a site.

3) Description Tag - The idea behind this tag is to describe what the “page” is about. Keywords related to the page should be implemented as well. The limit on words should be 20 to 25. I see a lot of site owners stuffing this tag with keywords, or having a description that is just as long. Stay within these guidelines and you will be fine.

4) Title tag - This, I believe, is the most important tag. This is the first tag the search engine bed. He tells what the search engine of the “page” is about. Do not put your web address here. Do not add your company name at the beginning of this tag either. It should not exceed 60 characters.

5) Content-If you notice, I received comments on the relevance of the “page”, not your entire site. Each page has its own keywords. Tag the title tag, description and keywords. All these keywords should be the same. Add it to your content as well. Now your page should be fairly well optimized.

Why is it that the sites fall short? Simple, the content is not optimized. Search engines are, for the most part, pretty basic. You enter a search term and it retrieves sites containing those terms while also taking a number of other factors into account. So if your site does not have these terms, how will you find it? You will not. More to do with keywords and you will experience the same result, but for different reasons. Sometimes, while reading about SEO can be bad. Try too many tricks, tips or methods is like too many cooks spoil the soup. At the end, they may do more harm than good. These rules are very easy to be followed by all. And the doubt? Always consult or hire a professional SEO Expert.

SEO Expert presents Seo Services that means the webmaster does not attempt to deceive search engines. SEO Services means playing by the rules. The web pages that are created by SEO Expert with white-hat SEO methods are beneficial to the Internet, search engines and clints.


Why Workplace Politics Charts the Path to Build Great Teams and Performance for Organizations â?? Successfully
October 8, 2009 at 6:34 pm

When most people hear the phrase â??organizational politics,â? they react very negatively. They see politics in the workplace as forming clicks and another way to keep those who go against the status quo labeled as an outsider. People also think that itâ??s a toxic dynamic that allows manipulative behaviors for people to get what they want by stepping on their co-workers’ backs. But not every instance of workplace politicking is a selfish maneuver to win.

 

In his book, Building Great Teams: Charting the Path of Organizational Politics (Book Surge, 2007), U.S. Marine turned business professional and university instructor Damian D. â??Skipperâ? Pitts takes you inside one of the greatest team building organizations in the world â?? the United States Marine Corps â?? to examine and discover the strategies that business leaders must be willing to learn, use and employ for building ordinary groups into extraordinary teams; leading the right team of commandos who understand what it takes to win on the business battlefield and defeat workplace politics using warfare as the key to experience a significant win. He defines workplace and office politics as â??the path to smart growthâ?¦using the power to accelerate the careers of high potential future leaders and teams power in the workplace.â? He implies that office politics are not always negative, but offer opportunities for greatness. And while workplace politics aren’t necessarily avoidable, people can learn to understand their purpose, find their voice and understand how-to strengthen and build the teams dynamics and interpersonal communications skills â?? all while managing responsibilities with tact, poise, and polish. The game of politics, when understood how-to use it as a strategic weapon, helps to successfully chart the path of personal and professional growth as the essential task to achieve personal mastery from the results of peak performance. Organizational politics also offers the hidden treasures that allow people to stand-out from the crowd. They learn to demonstrate their ability to navigate the maze of successful team building â?? a task that is viewed as positive organizational behavior from the individual that is perceived as an extraordinary leader. This is the type of person that others seek to follow and emulate for the greatness they wish to develop for themselves.

 

Workplace Politics vs. The Battlefield Engagement

 

Just as in any military engagement, in order to win one must know the rules better than his/her competitor to outsmart them on the battlefield. It also is beneficial to be a part of the right team for controlling the elements of the battlefront. However, some might claim the workplace and the military are very different in many ways. Thinking from this approach causes significant missteps in organizational politics. There are significant issues that are similar in the workplace and on a military battlefield. For starters, the one constant is â??people.â? Any time that people are involved in a scenario, decision-making must play a role in the ability to win. Using the strategies from the United States Marine Corps, people are responsible for making critical decisions from the highest ranking officer down to the lowest ranking enlisted â?? and the decision could mean life or death. Well, the same goes for the workplace. People are responsible for making critical decisions that could mean that the organization acquires strategic assets (executive suite decisions) or that a customer is treated in a way that causes them to continue doing business with the organization. Both can be seen as life or death for the organization. As seen with Wachovia bank, a decision from the top level leadership was made to acquire Westgate Financial to boost their mortgage business. When the U.S. mortgage markets and industry imploded during the financial crisis, the organization was effected with incredible implications â?? it became the beginning of the end for one of the countryâ??s largest banks and people lost careers and more. Similar to the likes of a military battlefield engagement and a series of wrong decisions made by leadership, loss of life was experienced.  

 

But what most people fail to realize is that the workplace is too a battlefield. Business is warfare and those who understand how to navigate the politics always win. Consider the game of chess. Chess can be low-key and quiet, a friendly game between friends. Or it can be explosive and highly competitive, set amid a crowd of observers, where the ultimate winner reaps world-wide accolades. Consider the skill behind the game of chess. It requires well-planned strategy and a great deal of mental acuity and patience, not to mention years of practice to reach an elite status.

 

These are the same skills required by a great leader, one who has the ability to guide an organization and one who understands the world of workplace politics. On the other hand, while playing a game such as chess, there can only be a single winner where there often can be a more neutral outcome in the world of workplace politics. With the proper skills of negotiation and influence, savvy leadership might be able to create a win-win situation.   

The Truth about Politics in the Workplace

 

Politics will always be part of an organization because people are people. The dynamic relationships of individuals who run a business enterprise play an important part in how the business operates: How the mission map, posture statements, vision, values and organizational culture is forged. And while the average Jane or Joe might feel like they are being run over by co-workers who manipulate the system, bully, gossip, backstab and brown nose to get what they want, there is more to workplace politics than those negative daily encounters. The quintessential aspect of organizational politics is the team. Building great teamsâ?? hits at one of the most discussed topics in business media and the workplace: Organizational Behavior, transformational leadership, organizational renewal and inter-office politics. The day of the individual worker is over, as todayâ??s business arena demands that workers possess the ability to effectively work as team units that consistently produce extraordinary outcomes from their performance. It is a scenario all top leaders and managers knows well: The organization, their people, and their systems all require efficient and effective processes to remain constant in its approach to move quickly toward new and innovative ways of reaching mission-critical objectives.

 

Good leaders are a thing of the past, as global economies now require more than good â?? they seek greatness and ordinary just does not fit the bill any longer. They now require the ordinary to be â??extraordinary.â? The new battlefield in the workplace requires the extraordinary leadersâ?? understanding of workplace politics and the accompanying landscape to be significant. They can no longer work in the old silos of the past that was developed by the silly political conflicts. No, these extraordinary leaders can no longer exhibit the behaviors that ultimately invite disaster. This is not to say that leaders of the past demonstrated the behaviors that put-up with negative politics that caused disastrous outcomes nor does it imply every good leader has found his/her way to the top of the heap by climbing over the bodies of crushed co-workers. It simply means that leadership understands workplace politics well enough to use them as â??strategic weaponsâ? to produce positive returns without the mud slinging and backsliding of unethical and immoral actions.  

 

Understanding how-to chart the path of organizational politics means being able to maneuver using political warfare to enhance the organization’s ability to rise to the top of its industry, without leaving one of its warriors lying wounded on the battlefield. It means having a well crafted Battleplan, understanding the players, building positive alliances and coalition of forces, using the art of war as a significant warfighting strategy that all stakeholders understand and buy-in to for winning, and finally, developing a compelling case study for the associates of the organization to understand the comprehensive approach for integrating strategic human capital and team development initiatives into the fold.

 

Convert Uniqueness into Ultimate Power

The best leaders are the people that understand the nature of warfare in dealing with and overcoming workplace politics. These are the men and women who have a tone on the pulse of the workplace â?? internal and external â?? and know what it takes to remain on task â??ethicallyâ? to lead others into greatness. Here are five important things to know about politically savvy leaders:

°          They understand the critical importance of the team associates to be â??LeaderShapedâ? into GREATNESS. They understand the â??whatâ? and â??howâ? in developing a GREAT team.

°          They make decisive decisions for the benefit of the Future Picture

°          They understand the â??cultureâ? in the system that the team must influence.

°          They know what it take to strategically â??executeâ? and win as a team.

°          They know how-to use the â??Six Political Signs of Business Leadershipâ? to achieve professional mastery to the people and organization: 1. a clear â??Visionâ? of issues. 2. Understand the â??Valueâ? drivers within the team. 3. â??Behavioralâ? influence of leadership to the Future Picture. 4. â??Strategyâ? Modeling (Enterprise Decision Making). 5. Strategic â??Executionâ? (Governance). 6. â??Duplication of Protocolâ? (learnable-teachable methods for future engagements).

Engaging the battlefield that is influenced by workplace politics, for many, may mean asserting their power, pushing and shoving like the elementary school bully until they get what they want. But that’s really just the toxic behavior and conduct that eliminates the possibilities for leadership and the organization they influence to win. One of the best ways to lose power is to overtly use it. Instead, the best leaders know that power comes from influence â?? and influence is subjective to behavior, character and the value system that drives the people responsible for charting the pathway.

In this great read, Pitts also outlines how, in most cases, team leaders never hit their goals â?? not because they lack talent within the associate ranks, but because they are naïve to the complexities of team dynamics. He outlines the strategic-execution methods that smart leaders understand and use to determine what type of team model best suits their specific environment, what key skills to look for (and which to avoid), and how to coax top performances from everyone starting from day one.

Author Robert Dilenschneider explains in his book, Power and Influence: The Rules Have Changed: True power and influence means accepting responsibility, taking the heat and keeping your word. So even if someone supports the supposition that leadership is just another way of playing political games, it doesnâ??t necessarily mean this is a bad thing. When properly played, workplace politics can lead to great achievements and outcomes. Pitts believes that extraordinary teams that are great engage politics well. They are LeaderShaped and driven by extraordinary people who make a distinctive impact â?? they deliver significant and superior performance over a long period of time. There are some striking characteristics of great teams who achieve sustained success within their mission across its life cycle. They experience an increased level of professional mastery in developing and executing as great teams do. These teams have gone through a process; a process that is forged in a furnace of professional development, transformational thinking, and strategic-execution.  

Workplace politics, good or evil, are a very real part of the work environment. Whether people subscribe to the belief that leadership is just another way of engaging the political battlefield or not, it is important to keep in mind that as long as there are people working together as great teams do, there will be politics, but the outcomes will be far different from the results of the past. Great teams are the way to successfully engage the battlefield â?? greatness from the team is how to engage politics well and win it using fair tactics.

 

Damian D. â??Skipperâ? Pitts, A United States Marine turned business professional is the author of Building GREAT Teams: Charting the Path of Organizational Politics, Building GREAT Teams: The Monograph (Book Surge Publishing, 2007) and the co-author of Business WARFIGHTING For GREAT Teams (Book Surge Publishing, 2008) and Founder and Chairman of the Bison Group Corporation, a management consulting and training firm.
