Mahalo appears to have a sound infrastructure and a creative marketing plan.....it would be nice to see Google get a bit of a run.

If the company provides notice to an employee that their unhealthy actions are having a negative affect on others.Then normal company procedures should be consistently followed regardless of the issue (verbal warnings, written warnings etc.).

My take is....it depends. Was the individual responsible for growth in the company? Does the individual represent a strong presence publicly for the company? Maybe an original investor? Many times the popular response during difficult times would be "nobody is worth 200 million." But I think the circumstances should be weighed prior to coming forth with a conclusion.

Every individual could interpret contact, actions, looks etc. differently. Religion, gender, age could play a role in ones thought process. Some might not agree or understand why an individual is offended with various forms of contact i.e. hand on the shoulder etc. Regardless if an individual agrees with a policy or not, the policy should be followed and respected. Setting guidelines and boundaries for oneself will assist in the avoidance of offending another.

I like the article...great detail with very valid points. I might add that a key addition to the mentioned is RESPONSIVENESS. I tend to reiterate this quality because I believe that it is very lacking quality in the world today.

"Results"

I might add that employee feedback can also be very productive.

Social responsibility starts with leading by example. "Do what you say." Responsiveness is extremely important....a company that is forthcoming can maintain integrity with an honest, responsive approach. Understand the culture(s) within the company...individuals are motivated by different things.

I have not tried out either. Apparently MySpace is big with the kids?

I don't believe that a "blueprint" is what makes a successful leader. The bottom line are the results, Was the goal(s) achieved? Is the team morale high? Efficiency, effective results?
