Nothing great in history has ever been built by one person alone.
Successful organizations rely on their employees, who are their greatest asset and opportunity. Investments in training, development, and retention are crucial.
Every successful organization may rally behind a charismatic leader or founder, but it is the army of people behind them who are ultimately responsible for helping them get to where they are - and making sure they stay there. Untold amounts of money are spent on Human Resource activities like recruiting top talent, interviewing, and onboarding. But how much time and money are actually invested in their training, development, and retention initiatives?
Sometimes, when one of our people fails us, it is really we who have failed them. Just because you are a leader does not mean you can expect everyone to bend to your authoritarian rule. Effective leadership involves understanding each employee's unique needs and communicating accordingly. Balancing the need to address poor fits and retaining valuable employees is essential for a healthy culture. Yes, some may not be a good fit for your organization or the specific role they are in. These are the situations where your leadership burden is to understand why and assess what available options are worth trying. Yet there is a delicate balance. Keeping the wrong people around for too long can lead to a toxic culture, but getting rid of the right ones too soon will also make others question their job security. Herein lies the importance of perceptivity and understanding your people on a deeper level.
H. Marc Helm has written three books on the principles of management, leadership, and talent development, drawing from his unique corporate, educational, and military backgrounds. Marc was not born with wealth or fame. Business connections and opportunities for advancement did not come easy to the son of an auto mechanic, so Marc seized every opportunity that presented itself to him from the time he was old enough to enlist in a local ROTC program and ultimately serve his nation in Vietnam. His time and experiences, combined with the lessons learned while building a multi-million dollar business he later sold, have shaped his outlook in all situations he finds himself in today.
Do not expect a preachy narrative of "do what I say, not what I do." Offering practical guidance rather than theoretical concepts, the advice Marc gives his readers is based on his own experiences and proven practices. His goal is to help leaders develop their people and create successful organizations. Lead on!!!

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
