The world is full of gurus, consultants, authors, speakers and others who will proffer their Secrets of Success checklist at the drop of a coin (into their pockets, preferably). Robert Heller and Edward de Bono have a better track record than most and the currency of their list is, therefore, arguably greater. See what you think.
Do You:
IMPROVE basic, measured efficiencies continuously?
THINK simply and directly about what you are doing and why?
BEHAVE towards others as you wish them to behave towards you?
EVALUATE each business and business opportunity with total, fact-based objectivity?
CONCENTRATE on what you do well?
ASK questions ceaselessly about performance, markets and objectives?
MAKE MONEY- knowing that, if you don't, you can't make anything else?
ECONOMISE always seeking Limo (Least Input for Most Output)?
FLATTEN the organisation to spread authority and responsibility?
ADMIT to your own failings and shortcomings and correct them?
SHARE the benefits of success with all those who helped to achieve it?
TIGHTEN up the organisation wherever and whenever you can because familiarity breeds slackness?
