Howard Jones, Management Guru?

We have noticed the #businessbook shelves are full of #management advice from some unlikely sources, e.g. Harry Potter, Shakespeare, 50 Cent, Moses, Winnie The Pooh. So why not 80s synth-pop icon?Howard Jones? Perhaps these old lyrics give you a “new wave” of business inspiration and skills for the new year:

·??????“Treating today as though it was the last, the final show; Get to sixty and feel no regret; It may take a little time - a lonely path, an uphill climb; Success or failure will not alter it; And do you feel scared? I do, but I won't stop and falter; And if we threw it all away, things can only get better.” OPTIMISM

·??????“Don’t try to live your life in one day, don't go speed your time away, don’t bite off more than you can chew, only so much you can do.” TIME MANAGEMENT

·??????“This is a song to all of my friends; They take the challenge to their hearts; Challenging preconceived ideas; Saying goodbye to long standing fears. Don't crack up; Bend your brain; See both sides; Throw off your mental chains.” CREATIVITY

·??????“Whatever you like to do then let that be my pleasure, Whatever you like to say I'll try to understand, Whatever you do you have the benefit of the doubt, Whatever I do please understand, Whatever we do let's make a pledge to put it right, So we can end the rule of the division. Putting the dream into action into action.” CONFLICT RESOLUTION

·??????“No one is an island, on that you can depend, A vessel on his own is a sinking ship, It will be that way until the time will end.” TEAMWORK

·??????“An everlasting precious love; Wait for it, wait for it, give it some time.” PATIENCE

·??????“No one is to blame.” DETACHMENT
