Thoughts thrown down, without any selection, without beginning and endlessness.

A manager has to know his company just as well as a gardener knows his garden. In fact, it is also a matter of common sense. You cannot maintain the company at a high level of performance if you do not know well enough your employees and the practices that they use it. Developing and improving relations with all the employees of the company is the first and the most important step that a manager should make.

What kind of "fertilizer" and what concentration are you using in order to keep people active? Is your relationship with them renewing or matures in contact with your type of personality? Is the development of the company happens under the sign of their transformation? Have they developed themselves under the beneficent effect of your example and guidance?

Just as a skilled gardener knows each plant of his garden apart, so the manager has to know very well all the staff; to know how to evaluate their professional level and to develop their skills. The ability to approach all his employees, to understand and satisfy their needs and to guide them towards the best direction makes the manager more than just a chief, makes him a leader.

Are you wholeheartedly involving yourself in developing the human "base"?

A manager is leading on the basis of what he makes, not based on what he says. If the employees are finding out the lack of minimum knowledge or even a lack of professionalism on his part, then they will not be involved in the organizational development or in the continuous improvement of their work. However, in this case, the question arises: how could become a manager an individual without a thorough knowledge?

For the efficiency obtained by a team to be maximum, it is necessary that the manager to follow the proper functioning of the organization's activities.

Just as a gardener sees in the seed the fully grown tree so you have to see in people your company's future success. That is why the consistent and deepened concern for each of the decisive stages of selection and recruitment process it is so necessary. You must keep in mind their best qualities and the need to recover and enrich their horizons in the light of a development, which would combine the efficiency with dynamism, precision and ingenuity - if you want for your leadership to flourish.

I will not be too long about it. I will add only that. I cannot know with certainty whether you are a skilled gardener, as well as I do not know if you are a talented manager. I do not know if you value your employees as much as a gardener loves his garden plants. All I know is that if you want to be a skillful manager, you must respect the Human Resources and to get involved wholeheartedly in the development of the human "base" because of it depends for the most part the progress and evolution of an organization.

Respect the best qualities of the people, by building their horizons in the light of an as natural and as healthier evolution.

People’s concept about you is supported by the extent to which they believe that you could enlighten them in some way their situation. They will ignore and neglect you, and will consider your leadership one uninteresting if they will not find in you that light of hope-giving. Your impact on them will be even greater as their interest on your leadership will increase, the far better they will relate to your ideas, on how you express your concept concerning your role and to the mission of your art to lead them.

If Romania wouldn’t have had a few valuable people that would spread certain chosen skills or a unique knowledge across the borders, it would probably have been conquered long ago.

Therefore, I encourage the unique and truly talented people to affirm themselves as much as possible in the world ! They are the only hope of wellbeing of this country !

Politicians can always be bought or blackmailed, but the image of the country around the world is proven only by a minority when the majority does not have a better option !

Is your leadership situated at a minimum or at a maximum altitude?

So, in order to evaluate the progress in your relationship with people, you have to submit your leadership to an analysis. This analysis must have in view some very important points, namely: the maximum and minimum altitude, to which your leadership can ensure its functioning at the best parameters, as well as the degree of extension of its various stages of development.

The minimum altitude plays the role of the basic level, to which operates your leadership, and which controls the erosion processes that can destroy an important part of your performance area. While, the maximum altitude is that calculated part of your evolution that can ensure you maximum efficiency.

It is known that vitamin D is essential for the immune system functioning at the best parameters – which supports the general health. However, only in the presence of sunlight it is synthesized.

In the same way, the necessary component for your potential growth depends on the functioning at the best parameters of your leadership. However, this essential component, carefully invested in your "engine" of excellence, can be synthesized only through the engagement of some basic elements, such as: professionalism, the quality of services, passion, the assumed responsibility, or ethics. This "component" is your reputation, and this determines the altitude of your leadership.

These formidable opponents, closely tied to an underdeveloped reasoning, difficulty to maintain and of low power of understanding things, like real targets in continuous operation, but without generating any particular intellectual profit, orients the individual in a direction that doesn't offer the possibility for a "Refill." And thus, the stimuli of intellectual development will show their limits, preventing any penetration into the private space of the great science that pulsates and changes constantly.

If we will succeed to prove to other people that we are capable of guiding them with wisdom to a successful career, if we will restore their hope in the future, only, then we can consider that we have the necessary abilities to succeed in leadership.

Maintenance is a generic term for a variety of operations initiated when a contingency occurs. It creates an unwelcome and prolonged fall of the system of values, beliefs, motivations, attitudes, life experience, enhancing the feeling of injustice.

To block powerful players from connecting to your security system during maintenance is synonymous with acceding to a visionary experience without setting the risk parameters on a certain area of refuge. It means to lose the motivation to act into the unknown.

Two processes of producing information, needful in the context of the representation of subjective projections.

We can distinguish during the stages of creation, two processes of producing information needful in the context of the representation of subjective projections, ideas that give contend to the approaches that support other realities.

A process aimed at the subjecting increasing of the self-perceived specific competence, through which you get to the upper level of assuming imagination. From here stemming the possibility of imposing yourself more, by the direct exploration of the subjective reality.

The second process dominates the conception phase of producing representations of the self in relation with the ignorant, the bizarre, with a reality that is hard to accept, in which emerges – giving up issues of detail – the project of the work you want to create. Basically, you offer a new direction to creation, enhancing information as a measure of disorder, of surprise and improbability. These produce innovation and originality in making leadership through the individual configuration of a particular thought process, of a route that has never existed before.

Subjectivity is one which, upon processing and assessing external or internal reality, attributes one of its components the status of a sum of multiple forms of manifesting the existing, marking and liking the obsolete past with the existing future, as a possibility of personal capitalization.
