I’ve been surfing online more than 4 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me. In my view, if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be a lot more useful than ever before.

With havin so much content do you ever run into any issues
of plagorism or copyright infringement? My site has a lot of unique content I’ve either created myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my authorization. Do you know any methods to help stop content from being ripped off? I’d certainly appreciate
it.

I do not know whether it’s just me or if everybody else encountering issues with your blog. It seems like some of the written text within your posts are running off the screen. Can someone else please comment and let me know if this is happening to them too? This could be a issue with my internet browser because I’ve had this happen previously.

Nice catching with you.

Comment on Karma Fostering Leadership Largesse by Omar Khan

Omar Khan — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 19:50:13 +0000

Jesse, thanks for the input. Sometimes indeed you have to “slow down” to “speed up”.
So much has been stripped of personality — injecting our own, with due appreciation of the situation
and context, can indeed be powerful. To “personalize” (whether by a hand-written note or otherwise) is to bring
our “person”, a part of our selves, into the interaction or exchange. It is a fitting tribute to offer, in any part of our lives…judiciously, but
where we opt to…fervently.

Comment on Karma Fostering Leadership Largesse by Life Coaches

Life Coaches — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 18:06:30 +0000

Great tips Omar!

I especially like the ideas of slowing things down and delivering a hand-written note. You can not underestimate how happy people are when they get ‘real’ mail these days!

I will be sure to incorporate these into our business!

Thanks for sharing

Jesse

Per se is certainly one of the most wonderful restaurants but I thought of you last night when we had to take a snow cat to get to dinner! We dined at The Game Creek Club in Vail and it was simply stunning! Chef David Clawson did a remarkable job with Foie Gras, Scallops, Elk and short ribs, all to die for, you have to put it on your list of places to dine! See you at Jean Georges on 23rd. Love from snowy Colorado. X

Mr. Khan,
Thanks for the link to your blog! I don’t typically pay attention to blogs but I genuinely found yours to be a insightful and informative read…or listen in the case of “Absurdities Abound” I found your site when I was researching Leadership Excellence magazine’s top 30 leadership consulting firms, so kudos for that achievement! I look forward to your next post!!
Best wishes,

Omar,

I enjoyed reading your entries. Not very often that I read consulting blogs that are more about food and history (my two biggest passions) than about business. Of course, you warned me that would be the case. Love the pictures, makes it tough now to work becuase i am so hungry,
John

Comment on The Wrong Fossil Fuel! by Suki

Suki — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 05:18:37 +0000

I couldn’t agree more. I work for a small ed tech company and I thought 2009 would be quite bleak (half of the employees had to be let go the previous fall). And yet our CEO instead of asking us to work longer and harder, cut us some slack, gave everyone extra time off to spend with their families, and started the year off with a kick off meeting, where he outlined a project that would open up our content to thousands of children all over the world for free. It was a radical and exciting idea and at the end a colleague turned to me and whispered “I’m excited!”

Now, that’s leadership!

Comment on Omar’s Debut Podcast by Antoinette K

Antoinette K — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 16:30:12 +0000

I particularly enjoyed this Debut podcast. It seems imperative that
leaders should ‘interrogate reality openly and creatively’. I feel
relieved to hear your indirect mentioning of the importance of innovation
here. The points raised are essential to the success of every system:
whether political, corporate, social.

No one would argue that defining the matrix competently so that the
mission and vision are clear is essential; that considering credible
diverse views is crucial, often overlooked, or simply too challenging
to be taken seriously. My humble experience in the ruthless, yet
energising world of student politics, opened my eyes about the
challenges surrounding a leader’s ability to consult and consider its
members’ views. Being people’s person is not easy but is the very
point of politics. Finally, combined with creating clarity and
visibility through communicating where are we now, and where are we
going to be, is a fundamental principle of good governance.

Omar, thank you once again for bringing light to so many fundamental
questions. Moreover thank you for bringing this up through such an
interesting and so very current political perspective.

Comment on Not A Bad Idea For Valentine’s Day by Antoinette K

Antoinette K — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 16:27:31 +0000

What a refreshing outlook on love! It is striking to see a post on
‘love’ on a consultancy blog. Don’t we all automatically distance
ourselves from this topic, especially when we are working within the
context of the corporate world? And should we? It is all about
channelling emotions and passion, isn’t it? Omar, your book on
Liberating Passion makes a memorable statement: letting passion
flourish, letting it prompt personal, professional development and
excellence. And ultimately, talking about love: I only wish it is a
feeling to remember not only on the few occasions throughout the year.
So to briefly conclude - yes, I would also call for love - love that
nurtures…love that inspires!

Omar,

Thank you. I look forward to listening to it.

By the way, I forgot to mention in my earlier post that I noticed something unusual about the content in the “Foundation for Community Encouragement” website you link to from “Omar’s Links” page.

It looks like the domain was taken over by another goup and the content is not related to FCE.

Thank you.

Congratulations Omar on your blog.

I have been a long time admirer of your work and have listened numerous times to your interview podcasts with the Engaging Brand, Learn from Life, and Total Picture Radio with Peter Clayton. I look forward to the newsletter every month.

And while I am here, I want to thank you for your book “Liberating Passion”. It is a wonderful book full of insights. I am an Information Technology Project Manager an so many of the insights there on how to liberate passion are so relevant to project managers and project team members. I keep going back to it again and again to read of the many passion liberators.

Now that you are blogging, I wonder if you have any plans for podcasting. I know you are extremely busy with all your travels around the globe serving your clients but it would so wonderful to be able to listen to your podcasts on commute to work. One idea I thought would be an easy starting point is to convert to podcasts those interviews you did for the Singapore TV on how to be a better boss. They have wonderful content that lends itself to podcasting. Another idea is to do a podcast by reading the monthly newsletter. I know that Dan Coughlin, a mentee of Alan, uses this and it works well.

It would also be great to hear you again in an interview with Anna Farmery and Peter Clayton to introduce your new book. I think they are great interviewers and you seem to have a wonderful chemistry with both Peter and Anna. During your last interview with Anna (about “Liberating Passion”), she said this at the end of the interview: “There are times when I wonder why I do these podcasts, because it takes me an incredible amount of editing and an incredible and amount of time. Then I get to speak to somebody like Omar Khan and all the hard work behind the scene seems to be incredibly worth it”. I thought that was brilliant.

I have also become interested in NLP after I hear you talk about anchoring in one of the interviews with Peter Clayton. I plan to learn more about it as I already see how I can apply a lot of the NLP tools to deliver successful projects.

I am also a big fan of Alan’s work and have both his Million Dollar and Getting Started in Consulting.

Anyway, thank you again for the books, the newsletter, and now the blog. I look forward to more interviews and hopefully a regular podcast.

Comment on Eighteen Hours Rich in Meditations by Laurent Kleitman

You’d be happy to know that my small barber shop in Nonthaburi, a suburb of Bangkok, has also proposed me a free shoulder massage yesterday! I found his attention quite delicate. Of course I am a regular customer. But he said to me: “You never come during the week usually, so you must be on holiday. I will make you a holiday treat!”. For me this is true consumer attention, respect and understanding… You find smart business people everywhere !!
