Allocation of Unique Resources

In business, we have to use of our resources wisely, otherwise they can be abused, wasted or under-utilized.

I know we have a challenging economy, but I'd like to focus on one massive resource that's being wasted: our leaders' focus.

I meet with business people daily and I have to tell you, some of us are crying in our soup for a living. I am not making light of the situation at all.

As leaders, we are resources, too. We have to lead, we have to try something to make a difference to help our company. A little complaining here or there is understandable, but can't we spend the bulk of our time trying to get out of this mess instead of describing it?
