Your Toughest Race

by Rodney Johnson
11/13/2009

I frequently cut out newspaper and magazine articles that possess a unique perspective on life or business. Several years ago, newspaper reporter Bruce Brothers of the St. Paul Pioneer Press interviewed a gritty Minnesota runner named Luther Thompson. Thompson, in his late 50s at the time, had been known to enter some of the most grueling running races in the world, including the Leadville 100, a hundred mile race across the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. When Brothers asked Thompson what his toughest race was, a totally unexpected answer emerged. Thompson simply replied, "The toughest race is always the race I’m doing, whether it’s a 5K or a marathon or an ultra marathon."

When I read that statement, I was awestruck by its simplicity and wisdom. Thompson was right. Even as business leaders, our toughest race tends to be the race we're running. This might be tackling a problem or pursuing an opportunity that is facing us. And it's how we work through these issues that will determine how we place in the race we refer to as business.

Twelve months ago, the toughest race for most businesses related to how to quickly transition away from growth, due to a sharp downturn in economic activity. Decisions had to be made to align with the new reality we call recession. Each decision held consequences and opportunities. Each positioned the business for success or failure.

Today, a similar toughest-race scenario is beginning to emerge. Suddenly, organizations in survival mode are being challenged with another transition. This transition is about how to grow once again. And this is the take-home point. I believe the toughest race for business leaders is to understand how to best lead through transitions. To lead through transitions effectively, one should:

1. Understand where you've been, and recognize where you're going.
2. Leverage talent, and keep them engaged and motivated.
3. Lead from a position of transparency and honesty.
4. Delve into the tough "what if" issues by asking the hard-hitting questions.
5. Communicate. Communicate. Communicate.

In this latest transition, leaders can't afford to lose their nerve in moving forward. It's our responsibility to demystify the unknown, create clarity around what's really important and possess the confidence on how best to move forward. Only then can the toughest race become manageable and won.

Yes, the toughest race is always the race you're doing. Whatever you do, don't lose your nerve at the starting line, the place where races are won and lost.

Rodney Johnson is the author of the award winning book, "Without Warning" and works with business leaders as an executive coach.

  2. Thanks for the something totally new you have unveiled in your short article. One thing I’d like to discuss is that FSBO interactions are built with time. By presenting yourself to owners the first weekend break their FSBO is usually announced, ahead of the masses start off calling on Thursday, you generate a good connection. By mailing them resources, educational components, free reports, and forms, you become a strong ally. If you take a personal interest in them and also their predicament, you build a solid interconnection that, in many cases, pays off when the owners opt with an agent they know and also trust — preferably you actually.

  27. Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!

  37. Thanks for your valuable post. Over time, I have come to be able to understand that the particular symptoms of mesothelioma cancer are caused by a build up of fluid regarding the lining of the lung and the torso cavity. The sickness may start within the chest spot and propagate to other limbs. Other symptoms of pleural mesothelioma include weight loss, severe breathing trouble, throwing up, difficulty swallowing, and bloating of the neck and face areas. It really should be noted that some people existing with the disease tend not to experience just about any serious indicators at all.

  49. Thanks for your writing. I would love to say that a health insurance brokerage service also works best for the benefit of the coordinators of a group insurance coverage. The health agent is given a long list of benefits sought by an individual or a group coordinator. What a broker does indeed is try to find individuals and also coordinators which usually best go with those wants. Then he gifts his advice and if the two of you agree, this broker formulates a contract between the 2 parties.

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

  58. I’ve asked my older sister countless times to format my computer because I’m experiencing lag in the game I play. Btw, this computer has been formatted 4-5 times. But whenever I ask my sister to format my computer, she says no because she says that if you format a computer too much, the computer itself gets slower than it already was. Is this true? Or is that an excuse to get out of formatting my computer because it takes away her 2-3 hours?.

You can work all of your core muscles to flatten your stomach area, but don’t forget to incorporate exercises for your back side core muscles and the upper abdominals, besides working your lower abs. Adding variations of the exercises you do can help work muscles differently and a slow, steady approach is best for stretching and contracting muscles in your lower ab workout. Here are a few of the most popular exercises to incorporate:

  90. One thing I’d prefer to reply to is that weightloss program fast can be performed by the correct diet and exercise. Ones size not only affects the look, but also the entire quality of life. Self-esteem, major depression, health risks, and physical abilities are afflicted in an increase in weight. It is possible to do everything right but still gain. If this happens, a problem may be the primary cause. While an excessive amount food and never enough exercising are usually at fault, common health concerns and widespread prescriptions could greatly amplify size. Thanks a bunch for your post here.

  100. I have noticed that in digital cameras, extraordinary sensors help to aim automatically. The particular sensors of some video cameras change in in the area of contrast, while others work with a beam with infra-red (IR) light, especially in low lighting. Higher specs cameras from time to time use a mix of both devices and will often have Face Priority AF where the video camera can ‘See’ some sort of face and concentrate only in that. Thanks for sharing your ideas on this web site.
