Building better performance expectations
| |
| Ask yourself: on a scale of 1-10, 10 being high, how effective are the staff in the business? Chances are you will offer a number between 6 and 7. If extra effort is put in by the leadership that can be lifted to perhaps 7.5 maybe as high as 8 for short periods, then when the extra effort stops, as it must, performance slides back to where it was that is about 6.5. Our research states that 65% is about as good as you will get with the current set of performance and HR tools; to achieve consistently better staff performance, without extraordinary leadership efforts requires much better thinking about how staff are supported to be successful and perform as well as they are able. |

“TOP TEN TIPS TO EFFECTIVELY WORK WITH POLICY MAKERS”
| |
| We are sometimes called on to work with policy makers in a variety of organizations we are associated with in our personal, business and volunteer lives. Working with these policy makers can be very rewarding and can be very frustrating. Since 1970 I have been working with policy makers at all levels of government, non-profits, businesses, institutions and other organizations. And from the experience of those years, I developed a list of the top 10 tips to effectively work with policy makers. I have summarized those tips below:

9.3 Micro-finance institutions (MFIs): Support for Growth-oriented Women Entrepreneurs in Tanzania, 2005
| |
| Micro-finance operators in Tanzania function within the framework of the
Government’s National Micro Finance Policy of 2000. The objectives of this policy are
to provide the basis for the evolution of an efficient and effective micro-finance system
to serve the low segment of society and contribute to economic growth and poverty
reduction (as described in MIT, 2002). The policy establishes a framework within which
micro-finance operators will develop, lays out the principles to guide operations of the
system, defines roles and responsibilities of actors, and provides guidelines for
coordinating mechanisms. The Central Bank was given the mandate to coordinate
implementation of the policy. It is interesting to note that the Micro Finance Policy
includes “gender equity” as a best practice. |

5.1 Determinants of diversification in Africa: Economic Report on Africa 2007
| |
| Diversification and policy variables constitute a two-way process in that diversification
not only influences policy outcomes, but is itself influenced by policy variables.
This proposition naturally leads to the search for those economic and non-economic
policy actions that are likely to affect the level and rate of diversification in a country.
What evidence is there that links economic and non-economic variables with
national capacity to diversify? |

Underwater Mortgages: The Inside Story
| |
| So how did so many American homeowners end up with underwater mortgages? Let us tell you a little story . . .
In the beginning, there was the Clinton administration. And that administration, and the Congress that went along with it, told the banking industry that they had to find a way to make home ownership possible for people who couldn't afford it.

Monetary Police is Science, Everything Else is Stamp-Collecting
| |
| This new Eric Leeper paper seems delusional in arguing that monetary policy is science, while fiscal policy is stamp-collecting, but I maybe I'm just being crotchety. The piece also comes up with the new-to-me argument that monetary policy would be even better science if it weren't for fiscal policy mucking things up. |

I Hate MBAs/Redux

| Just a thought: Who, in their Right Mind would grow up desiring to be a "Master" of "Administration"? (E.g.: "I can file faster than you can! And prove it! After all, I'm a Master of ADMINISTRATION!") |

Insurance Defense Costs
| |
| Does Your Business Insurance Policy Cover Defense Costs Within the Insurance Limit or Defense Costs Outside of the Insurance Limit?
Did you know that a liability policy, which is part of any typical business insurance policy or commercial insurance policy coverage, has two distinct obligations? A liability insurance policy, if it is a general liability, product liability or professional liability insurance policy is designed to protect you against your legal obligation to pay others because you have hurt them and/or have damaged their property. A policy also defends you against claims or lawsuits. In other words, besides paying for claims or suits, a liability policy also pays for their related legal costs and court fees. |

The Small Business Administration and Your Business
| |
| The Wall Street Journal article headline read: “Should the Small Business Administration Be Abolished?” The internet buzz is swirling with conjecture. There is, of course, no concrete evidence to this and organizations such as WIPP (Women Impacting Public Policy) are against the Small Business Administration (SBA) closing. This action would devastate many local programs supported by this government agency in many areas of the country. |
