Setting smart goals and finding the right leaders to see the goals through are top priorities for organisations and individuals alike.

Influential bloggers such as Seth Godin and Steve Pavlina write about how goals set individuals on a path to work hard. Hard work opens possibilities to achieve results, though sometimes the results one gets in the end are far different than what was intended. Psychology Today posted that goals which are clearly defined and attached to one’s personal value system are more likely to come to fruition.

The style of leadership required to face our current global realities needs to be empathic, flexible and positive, as the Harvard Business Review blogs assert.

In an interview with Guy Kawasaki on Careerealism, he revealed that the most important career advice he can give as a serial entrepreneur is to not take your first job seriously and to find joy in your family.

The Tools for Thought blog ran a comprehensive post covering time-management guru Julie Mortgenstern’s tools to get control over one’s time. In a candid post about productivity, The Illuminated Mind tells readers that productivity for productivity’s sake merely amounts to rejecting our true purpose to find happiness.
