Ready, set, GO! The calendar has once again given us a “new lease on life&# – a chance to restart and renew. So what are we going to do with this opportunity? Plenty. That is, if we have the desire and the will to want to improve, or climb another rung up the ladder, or make a change. And that’s the first step in quickly getting ahead in this New Year, and staying there – Setting Your Intent, and WRITING IT DOWN.

To be an Extreme Leader is really nothing more than the challenge to be fully human at work, at home, in the community, and in the world as a whole. And to be fully human requires our accepting a radical level of personal accountability for making the future markedly better than the present. Accountability has become an uncomfortable idea; it’s that thing that people desperately want other people to take. “These people need to be more accountable&# is an edict that I’ve heard m

I tried to show him all the ups of my new solution but he simply won’t have it and I don’t want to go behind his back… What do I do?

…Then Hold Themselves Accountable To. Trust. Credibility. Every leader wants these things, because if they can get them, it sets the stage for extraordinary achievement. If they cannot, it almost always leads to middling mediocrity or outright failure. Establishing trust and credibility takes some time to do, but the process has to start (or re-start) with what I call a “ declaration of principles &# to those you are leading- a public statement of the things that YOU will do (or n

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

Since most meeting planners would never book a speaker without seeing a video first, the “highlight&# or “promo&# video, which showcases the speaker in front of a live audience, is a staple of the industry. This is the first highlight video I’ve produced in several years, and although it has updated versions of some of the old-favorite bits, the overall approach is quite different from what I’ve done before.

Multi-tenant architecture allows software vendors to realize tremendous efficiencies by maintaining a single application stack instead of separate database instances while meeting data privacy needs. When you use a data warehouse to power your multi-tenant analytics, the proper approach is vital. Multi-tenant analytics is NOT the primary use case with traditional data warehouses, causing data security challenges.

By Mike Myatt , Chief Strategy Officer, N2growth. Regardless of your station in life, both what you say, and how you say it matters. It matters to an even greater degree for those in positions of leadership. Leaders simply don’t have the luxury of choosing their words in cavalier fashion. Whether in written or oral form your vocabulary matters. Few things make an impact, or lack thereof, like the words you allow to flow from your lips or from your keyboard.

As I was learning my way through my leadership journey, I made my share of mistakes. When you get a chance to look at all of them in your rear view mirror, as I recently did as a result of my company being sold, it’s very illuminating to put all these errors in some kind of overall perspective, to see if there are any revealing common themes and traits that jump out.

Change always happens in the context of organizational culture, or “the way we do things around here.&# Much of resistance comes from the change being at odds with both the spoken and unspoken rules about how the organization usually operates. The organization’s culture can impact your assumptions about how you can implement change successfully.
