Here's the kind of pointless crap I can't believe gets published. James Citrin's article Six Principles for Leading During Uncertain Times can be summarised like this:
1 be honest
2 have a good business idea
3 hire good people
4 motivate the good people you hired
5 insert current management fad here: "organise for flexibility" (quite a lot better than the previously fashionable "exhibit thought leadership". Excuse me, is the Thought Leader home today?
6 be consisent

Er, right. So that definitely gets the so-what-? prize, then. And anyway, I don't think there just has to be a recession to exhibit integrity.
