Set and meet your deadlines Develop your own problem solving style. Don't get caught up in the mind-set that you must accomplish a goal completely without anyone's help. Realize that change is important. It can be good. Make it work for you.
People appreciate honesty.
Don't beat around the bush. Be assertive even if you have to take a deep breath to do it. Hire good people and let them do their work. Don't allow stress to over come you, the situation will not be changed or made better by stressing about it. If you can't do anything about it for the moment, focus your mind on something else.
