In not-for-profit performance evaluation where profit and loss measurements aren't obvious, this has been a breakthrough tool for us.

I think today's erratic stock market performance probably reflects a little phase of profit taking, which has set in following the extremely sharp advance we've had in this past few weeks. Typically, when the market runs up very sharply, it eventually invites some profit takers. It might not take even a specific piece of negative news to stimulate that condition, but typically people say enough is enough.

The strong performance of auto shares helped stabilize sentiment, but many sectors, such as metals and properties, are under profit-taking pressure.

A true leader knows that they are only as good as their last performance.

Raise expectations to improve performance.

You can perform an act of excellence when tying your shoes.
