Fearless leadership is not a concept; it is an action. It is defined by the choices you make each day. It does not matter what you do or where you are in the organization. Title, position, status, and hierarchy do not define fearless leadership. You define it by how you behave, your attitude, your ability to rebound, and by the results that you produce. You can change your behavior to achieve a much higher level of success.

Making the Mental Shift to Topic-Based Authoring and a CMSLeigh White
When technical publications groups are considering moving to DITA, one issue they typically consider as a motivator for making the switch is greater customer satisfaction. Yet, one aspect that is not considered often enough is how to ensure writer satisfaction. Too often the assumption is that writers will immediately see the benefits of DITA and will embrace it without reservation. Anyone who has been part of a DITA implementation knows this is not the case. This presentation focuses on some typical sources of writer dissatisfaction and push-back and explores ways to overcome them.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
Artificial intelligence (AI) offers new opportunities to radically reinvent the way we do business. This study explores how CEOs and top decision makers around the world are responding to the transformative potential of AI.

Editor's Notes
Growing your business, Finding prospects – it’s a discipline.
We’re going to show you how to be more effective.
Traditional source of stress: Other people’s personalities, no control, no authority – and a family, no work life balance
Actual source of stress: Decisions are made inefficiently, people spend way too much time in the wrong meetings, and when they are in the meeting its ineffective and unroductive
Traditional source of conflict: the person
Actual source of conflict: the job
People don’t know how they are being evaluated
So they are missing one another’s expectations
One person thinks they get to make the decision
Others don’t agree
Working at cross purposes
The way you know: the two people will argue during the day, and go for a drink together after work
Traditional source of stress: Other people’s personalities, no control, no authority – and a family, no work life balance
Actual source of stress: Decisions are made inefficiently, people spend way too much time in the wrong meetings, and when they are in the meeting its ineffective and unroductive
What happens:
Conflict + stress leads to bad behaviour
But what do we blame? The person isn’t strong enough, the person isn’t smart enough
There is no shortage of people out there who are experiencing these challenges…
Calculating how many people to call: how many clients do you want?
Calling anyone you know in the business world, and telling them you’d like to learn
more about their business, and telling them about what you do as well
Calling friends you haven’t spoken to in a while to catch up, and ask them what
they’re doing, and tell them about your coaching career
Asking each person you have coached or spoken to, “Who else do you know who
could benefit from coaching towards greater effectiveness?”
