something about teach and lead

"If you teach, they will not be taught.
If you lead, they will not be led.
So, teach without teaching.
And lead without leading.
That's the ultimate challenge
of a true master teacher & leader!"
- Kenneth Woo, 2007.


These words of wisdom is even more relevant with today's great reliance on human capital assets for business sustainability and competitive advantage. Smart people dont like to be taught and led.. or at least they dont like to be seen that way.. but there're strategies to manage smart people. Use the above quote to trigger your thinking & reflective mind.. i'm still learning too.. Also, knowing is one thing.. to internalise it into yr DNA is another. ;-)
