Leadership and Retention

Leadership is About Influence - Not Authority "Respect is how to treat everyone, not just those you want to impress." ~Richard Branson Great leaders don't set out to be a leader. They set out to make a difference. It's never about the role – It's always about the goal. “It’s amazing how much you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit." Harry S. Truman “Leaders become great, not because of their power, but because of their ability to empower others.” John Maxwell A boss has the title. A leader has the people. ~ Simon Sinek "Take care of your employees and they will take care of your business. It’s as simple as that." Richard Branson "People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” ~ Maya Angelou "Culture is more important than vision. Some leaders have great vision, but have created a toxic culture where that vision will never happen....

Don’t find fault, find a remedy.

Henry Ford was an American industrialist and a business magnate, the founder of the Ford Motor Company, and the sponsor of the development of the assembly line technique of mass production. Some interesting quotes from Henry Ford Don’t find fault, find a remedy. Vision without execution is just hallucination. If there is any one secret of success, it lies in the ability to get the other person’s point of view and see things from that person’s angle as well as from your own. The only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing. Quality means doing it right when no one is looking. To do more for the world than the world does for you – that is success. Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently. A business that makes nothing but money is a poor business. There is one rule for the industrialist and that is: make the best quality goods possible at the lowest cost possible, paying the highest wages possible. Employers only hand...

Dynamic Programming

Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it. ~ George Santayana In terms of mathematical optimization, dynamic programming usually refers to simplifying a decision by breaking it down into a sequence of decision steps over time. Dynamic programming amounts to breaking down an optimization problem into simpler sub-problems, and storing the solution to each sub-problem so that each sub-problem is only solved once. Dynamic Programming (DP) is an algorithmic technique for solving an optimization problem by breaking it down into simpler sub-problems and utilizing the fact that the optimal solution to the overall problem depends upon the optimal solution to its sub-problems. There are two key attributes that a problem must have in order for dynamic programming to be applicable: optimal substructure and overlapping sub-problems. If a problem can be solved by combining optimal solutions to non-overlapping sub-problems, the strategy is called "divide and conquer...
