Much Ado about Mao

03/11/2008

Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.
Don Miguel Ruiz

Monday's ExchangeEveryDay, "Mao on Leadership," generated a great deal of interest — both pro and con. Clearly, however, many readers thought Exchange was promoting Mao as a model leader. He was a terrible tyrant and we were pointing out why.

We try to avoid using ExchangeEveryDay as a forum for expressing our own views. In fact, we try to present a wide range of perspectives and topics. ExchangeEveryDay was created to provoke new thinking and open up new vistas for consideration. That is why we invite you to respond to messages that provoke you at the end of every daily message.

If you want to know where we stand on the traits of a good leader, check out, free of charge on our home page, the Exchange article "12 Reasons People Love to Work for You."

New CEU Opportunities!

Exchange's new program for awarding CEUs for reading Exchange articles is continually adding new course readings. Today you can find two new ones, to go with the ten courses already available: "Making Play Work" and "Managing Money."
