This document discusses several factors related to success, including self-control, grit, focus, perseverance, work-life balance, and faith. It defines self-control as resisting temptation and grit as working toward long-term goals. It also references sources that discuss managing oneself, the relationship between self-control and grit, and how faith relates to leadership and authenticity. The document uses Queen Esther as a biblical example of how faith can help guide decisions and help one persevere through challenges.

Agile & Beyond 2015 Keynote
Traditional definitions of leadership emphasize position, formal authority and power, vision, heroics. Those definitions might have been sufficient in another time. Organizations that need to respond to a fast-changing environment and desire continuous improvement require a different kind of leadership and a different kind of leader.
In this talk, we'll explore a different definition of leadership: “The ability to enhance the environment, so that everyone is empowered to contribute creatively to solving the problem(s)”… and what it means to lead from where you are.

Mediating Effect of Reputation on the Relationship between Interpersonal Skil...paperpublications3
Abstract: Career success is determined by a number of factors, including some combination of specific competencies and a performance record, along with network development, organizational politics, and reputation building. The county government of Uasin Gishu has of late received negative publicity for its policy on career development. Although interpersonal skills have been argued by researchers to demonstrate influence on work and career outcomes, a few attempts have been made to show how interpersonal skills influences these outcomes. This study investigated the relationship between interpersonal skills and career success of employees of Uasin Gishu County. The specific objectives of the study were: To determine the relationship between networking and career success, to establish the relationship between personal promotion and career success, to determine the relationship between impression management and career success, to establish the relationship between use of influence tactics and career success, and to determine whether reputation has any mediating effect on the relationship between interpersonal skills and career success. A case research design was used. Target population was all the employees of Uasin Gishu County government. Stratified ransom sampling and then simple random sampling was used to obtain the respondents for this proposed study. Primary data was collected using standard questionnaires. Interpersonal skills were taken as the independent variable, career success the dependent variable, and reputation as the mediating variable. Reliability was assessed using Cronbach’s alpha and the data was analyzed using SPSS. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. The study findings showed a significant positive correlation between networking skills and career success (r = .933, p=0.000), impression management and career success (r = .775, p=0.000), self-promotion and career success (r =.933, p=0.000), use of influence tactics and career success (r=.896, p=0.000). Also there was a significant positive correlation between reputation and networking skills (r =.909, p=0.000), impression management (r =829, p=0.000), self-promotion (r=.933, p=0.000), and use of influence tactics(r=.896, p=0.000), (r=.909, p=0.000). The result of the study indicated that networking does not have a significant effect on career success, impression management was found to have a positive significant relationship with career success, and there was no significant effect of use of influence tactics on career success. Reputation was found to partially mediate the relationship between interpersonal skills and career success and hence on the other hand, results indicated that reputation fully mediate the relationship between impression management and career success and hence. It was also found that reputation fully mediated the relationship between self-promotion and career success.

The Difference Between Management and Leadership
This week we will be examining the twin concepts of management and leadership. Bolman and Deal (2003) described leadership as the subtle process of mutual influence that creates cooperative efforts toward mutual goals. Bolman and Deal also described several sources of power that can be associated with leadership, but we will only talk about two in this Guidance. The two sources of power for this discussion are ‘position power’, or formal authority, and ‘personal power’, or informal authority.
Examples of official leadership are CEOs, Vice Presidents, and Managers in organizations, Admirals, Generals, and Colonels in the military, and of course, the official leader everyone is familiar with, the President of the United States. These titled leaders have been granted power and authority by virtue of their positions, but leadership is not always associated with these elements (Robbins, 2001). Those with official titles and formal authority can have the power to require or even force the actions of others (Wren, 2005).
Leadership often transcends official titles and granted authority. Consider your kids’ soccer coach. He or she has to be a leader in order to motivate and bring the best out of a would-be-team of 7 year olds. Or how about that person you work with? You know the one. The person who has no lofty title but others follow him as if he was the Pied Piper, simply because they recognize and respect him as a leader.
We have all seen leaders who have no specific or granted authority by way of an official title, yet they are clearly leaders. Famous examples of this type of leadership are Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. of the Civil Rights Movement and Mohandas Gandhi, non-violent protest leader against British Colonizers in India. Consider also Nelson Mandela, t ...

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Faith & Success
Leadership and success are guided by mirror of factors. Faith is
one of these factor.
Leader’s capacity to make moral decisions is based on level of
spiritual development (Sanders, Hopkins, & Geroy, 2003).
Example: Queen Esther, her decision to go before the king
and to eventually petition to save her people (Esther 7,
Kings James Version).
Faith cannot be discounted or checked at the closet before
entering the office. One will be less authentic (Sanders, et al.,
2003)

Faith should not be discounted or checked at the
closet before entering the office. One will be less
authentic (Sanders, et al., 2003).
Queen Esther did not check her faith at the door
when she became queen. It was part of her, it was
her life, and she persevered.
A faith and trust in God can help us in our quest to
successfully complete this journey through the DPA
program and our professions.
