Leading within a new organization



When entering into a new organization, a leader must examine the culture of the organization, set professional presence, continue the achievement of the organization’s mission and develop the organization through the development of its members. These elements seek to improve the function of the organization from an individual and collective viewpoint. This blog seeks to provide a greater understanding of these components.


By examining the culture and dynamics of the organization, a leader can assume a more bias point to continue the mission of the organization and/or improve the effectiveness of its mission. By studying the culture of the group, it provides a layer of appreciation for the biased strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of the organization. With this information, a recently joined leader may have a more objective point of view of the organization that may prove to be advantageous to the development of the group as whole.

Secondly, a leader must set a professional presence within the new organization. Not to say that the organization is not operating in a specific amount of professionalism. But, it is important that the current organization observes the level of professionals the leader exerts regardless of the organization size, density, etc. And by the leader doing such, its members lend a significant amount of trust to operate in the given position.

More importantly, the continuity of the achievement of the organization’s mission is essential to the duties of the new appointed leader. This shows a level of commitment to the organization’s mission and the determination of the leader to fulfill the job duties as assigned. These components allows for the trust of the organization’s member to be developed and given to the leader. This trust may be advantageous for the complementation of future projects and duties.

Finally, developing the members of an organization should be the goal of any leader. Without the people within the organization, there are no basic functions of it. When a leader improves the professional, personal and career aspects of an individual’s life, the leader has effectively developed the organization as a whole

How to handle your divorce?

Going through a divorce is never an easy process to initiate. I’ve been through one. You make a vow to stick with someone for the rest of your life. And then all of sudden, you find yourself arguing everyday and totally loathing the presence of the person.  So I’m writing this blog post to hopefully help others who are thinking about going through this process; or those who have started the process already.   I handle a few divorce cases and I’ve learned prearranged agreement is always better. I think too many times spouses are wanting to get the most out of a divorce. But, in the process they drain their personal finances. People see a lot of high-net-worth individuals on social media and television getting divorces. You see the ridiculous amounts of money for child support and alimony.  However, in everyday life, people don’t have access to millions of dollars and multibillion dollar companies.  With that being said, my encouragement a lawyer is to make sure you to work out an agreem

Forgive yourself. Allow yourself to succeed.

From Will Smith's fourth single "Just the two of Us" A great actor, motivator and lyricist:  Will Smith As I’ve been pondering about my life, my travels and the people I’ve met, I realized that I made a lot of bad choices and/or mistakes. However, I think what has allowed me to succeed in spite of my downfalls is the ability to look towards the future and forgive myself. There is no way to ‘right’ your every ‘wrong’:  (1) it could be very time consuming; and (2) it takes you away from the things you could be doing in the present. A major reason for people not succeeding in their own desired capacities is because they are either stuck in the past or living in the future. On one hand, you want to remember the past and learn from your mistakes. On the other hand, you want to have goals and continuously strive to meet those goals. As a person who has done both and some time struggle to balance those behaviors, it is extremely important to be well balanc

Criminal Charges and Mental Health

One of the increases legal issues that I see in present day society is the increased rate of arrest with people who have mental illness.   You might have heard of Matthew Rushin, a 22-year-old who was arrested for hit and run motor vehicle accident in Virginia Beach, Virginia. He was diagnosed with a mental illness and acquitted of the charges. But, just think about the use of taxpayers' money for the arrest, imprisoning of Rushin, and district attorney time for trying the case.  This post isn’t about money, but more so on how to deal with law enforcement and the court system with someone who has mental illness. One of the issues you must understand when it come to this is that not everyone is a psychologist and/or psychiatrist. You will have to do the educating of the law enforcement agency, the prosecutor, and the judge.   Too many times, individuals think that everyone has the same level of knowledge about mental illness, let alone a specific one.   If you or a love is detained
