A Leader should be responsible, compassionate, intelligent, just, wise, patient and energetic. For Leadership, the implication is that the action of a Leader can be fairly judged only relative to his context. A Leader is one who has an irreversible effect on the life of another.

The necessary conclusion of a monistic world-view is that we are all Leaders, regardless of the recognition or failure to appreciate the effects that we inevitably have on each other's lives. . Leaders and Leadership are related. One is the function of the other. Leadership, however, is not the functioning of Leaders. It is the function of a group and Leaders are a function of Leadership.

Start by selecting the most effective advertising medium in your job market. You wouldn't resort to a television advertisement to recruit computer programmers, for example, because TV appeals to too broad a market. Placing an ad in a programmers' magazine, or one discussing software, would be a more likely source.

Once you've found the right medium, concentrate on the ad itself, keeping these characteristics in mind:

- Design the ad so that it is distinctive in language
and appearance. Use typography and layout to make
your company and the job stand out from other ads on
the page.

- Highlight the major advantages you have to offer.
Address a prospective employee's most important

- State only the most critical job requirements. Make
half the ad deal with the job itself. Devote the
other half to selling your organization. Read More...
