The first line of this essential article says a lot “In spite of amazing technological advances, the work of an organization is accomplished by people.” The article contains seven tips; one that stands out is “Address performance problems directly”. The author notes that too often we ignore and let these problems fester undermining morale in the department. That’s a lesson you don’t want to learn the hard way. Are there any performance problems you ought to address?

This article emphasizes the value of a good performance management system to establish accountability. There was a tip that grabbed our attention: Understand how you deal with conflict. Maybe fear of conflict is what is causing your managers to hang on to the wrong person for too long even when the performance management system has shown that’s there’s a problem. Can you help managers overcome a fear of conflict?

Managers are always short on time, however not managing people leads to crises that take even more time. This article has a great takeaway: you don’t need long conversations to manage people, have frequent short 15-minute conversations to keep projects moving forward.

To have a high-performing organization that inspires employees you sometimes need to make the tough call of getting rid of an employee who, while not terrible, is mediocre at their job.
One way to detect such employees is to ask, “Would you be disappointed or relieved if they resigned?” How good is your organization at identifying employees who perhaps are not really “good enough”?

Today’s article emphasises the value of having clear performance standards. It also has one crucial tip; ask employees “What do you think we should do?” Try it, you’ll be surprised how many benefits it brings: for example, staff will begin to learn they can handle issues themselves without burdening you. Try the “What do you think we can do?” question the first chance you get.

This article reminds us, once again, that we will reap rewards from paying special attention to our high-potentials—a notion that can get lost in the daily tides of work. The article contains many ideas and one stood out for being especially relevant today “Provide unlimited learning opportunities for high-potential employees”. There is much to be learned and many opportunities to be seized; your high-potentials are the ones who will leverage knowledge. Give them every learning option they desire. Why not ask one of your high potentials what learning opportunities would like to have?

Bill Po***ck believed that connecting people to opportunity changes everything.

In remembrance, we share some of our favourite quotes. His own words demonstrate the conviction, curiosity, and humanity that defined both who he was and how Drake International was built.

For the next 75 years and beyond, we are Drake International.

It is with deep sadness that we share the peaceful passing of our founder, Robert William "Bill" Po***ck at his home in Monaco on July 7, 2026, at the age of 97.

Bill had a rare gift: he saw what people were capable of long before they could see it themselves, and then made sure they had every reason to prove him right. That belief became Drake International and over 75 years, it built an industry and made the world a better place.

Bill measured success not by what he built, but by the opportunities he created for others. True to his conviction that leadership means preparing others to carry the mission forward, he made certain that work would outlast him.

When asked how he wished to be remembered, his answer was simple: "For making it a better world."

And he did. In his honour, we carry that work forward.

Bill’s friends, colleagues and the millions of lives touched through Drake International remain his enduring legacy.

For the next 75 years and beyond, we are Drake International.

Rest in peace, Bill.
