Mayan Calendar 'Doomes Day' Leadership

I'll for sure live past the 21st December 2012, supposedly the 'dooms day' of the Mayan calendar, to say hello to all of you on the 22nd December 2012.

The Principles governing the universe are greater than the Values attached to such Principles by the different cultures. Principles are universal truths whilst, Values are those that are man made. He who lives by the Principles shall endure. - Lord Buddha.

Inverted principles of leadership

Ah, by the way, talking of leadership, did you realize that Ego and Progress to the Top are inverted in effect. Do you think so?

How good a leader are you?

Want to know how good a leader you are? Just ask people to rate you on a scale of 0 to 10, obviously 10 being the higher rating. The question to pose is; How would you recommend the person (me/your name) being assessed as a leader to your colleagues and friends? Just give them the question with the scale to mark on a sheet of paper. Don't ask them for any form of identification. Anonymity gives you candid feedback. You the 'leader' must be matured to take it!

Should people rate you 9 or 10, you are a great leader in their minds (A).
If they rate you 7 or 8, they consider you; one amongst the many they consider as leaders (B).
If the ratings are 6 or below, then they don't perceive you as a leader (C).

N is the total sample population.

The formula is (A-C)/Nx100. 

Expressed as a %, if you are rated +75% or more, pat yourself on the back, you are a great leader.  50 to 74%, you are a good leader. Below 50%, you have some work to do.

Good luck with your 'leadership' workout!

Michelle, why was he so interested in talking to you. She mentioned that in her teenage years, he had been madly in love with her.
