• EFFECT
(=Receipt Point)
The Scale of Effectiveness• EXTERNAL CONTROL
Someone who thinks that all his life and misfortunes are or have been dependent upon others
• CONTROL SOLELY OF ONE’S ACTIONS One sees himself as the cause only of the activities performed directly but cannot accept blame for other people mistakes or for what happens outside the company.
• He will not reach his goals
• INTERNAL CONTROL Sees himself as the cause of his actions but also as teh cause of other people actions and activities.
Blaming others drives you toward negative and ineffective emotions
EMOTIONAL RESPONSES Positive
Disagreement Having Fun Logical
Disinterested/Bored
HostileAngerResentmentAnxiousSadFailure
A PRODUCTIVE MANAGEMENT STYLE
• a) Before you get mad or blame see yourself as «the cause».
• b) If you work on people negative sides, the positive sides disappear.
• c) If you work on people positive sides, the negatives will tend to disappear.
• d) Train and coach (positive and instant help)

RATHER THAN ON COMPETENCE AND
EXPERIENCE

YOURSELF)
THE COMPANY MIRRORS THE MANAGER
• 1) To grow as a company you need to have a program to improve yourself
• If you want things to change, you have to change first
