They get bored with their message because they have said it more than once, while most employees havent even heard them at all, let alone understood what they said. CEOs need a grid of their total audience and need to be told that they can change their message once they have clearly put two check marks in every square - and not before. If you heard the same message twice from a CEO you'd think he was committed to the idea. If you never heard it at all you wouldn't know what she was thinking or where she was going. Love the blog. Smart, easy to read and right on the money. Keep it up. CEOs make the same mistake politicians do in their persona communications with employees.

CEOs need a grid of their total audience and need to be told that they can change their message once they have clearly put two check marks in every square – and not before.

My interpretation of the painting is that everything visible hides something more meaningful, which is why we always want to read between the lines. That's why what our leaders do is far more important to us than what they say and why we often find more about the truth in what they dont say. Credibility comes from building trust, I'm not convinced leaders can learn much from politicians except from their mistakes see: http://blogs.thebrandunion.com/youcantkissajpeg/2009/06/10/brown-leader/ David, Great use of the image “Son of man” by René Magritte.
