International Finance Corporation (IFC) and Blue Financial Services Group to Integrate HIV/AIDS Prevention with Microfinance
| |
| The International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group, announced plans to work with Blue Financial Services Group, a publicly traded African financial services company with over 100 branches in seven countries, on a pilot HIV/AIDS awareness and prevention program in Botswana, South Africa and Zambia. A statement released by the IFC explained that the program will target small companies and local communities, seeking to preserve jobs and businesses by integrating traditional financial services with HIV/AIDS prevention. |

The Role of Microfinance in Addressing the HIV/AIDS Pandemic in Zambia: The Rainbow Model Provides a Future for AIDS Orphans
| |
| Poverty and HIV/AIDS constitute a vicious circle. Poverty creates vulnerability to HIV/AIDS, and HIV/AIDS leads to poverty. Unfortunately, the interventions of the national and international community are not moving as quickly as the desperation and the loss of hope in the people coping with the pandemic at the grassroots level. |

5.5 The HIV/AIDS threat: Working Out of Poverty
| |
| Over 25 million workers are infected with HIV/AIDS, and millions
more affected by the pandemic. The ILO has calculated that the size of the
labour force in high-prevalence countries will be between 10 and 30 per cent
smaller by 2020 than it would have been without the effect of HIV/AIDS,
which poses a serious threat to economic growth and development prospects.
Macroeconomic performance is undermined by rising labour costs
associated with the pandemic, through skills shortages, sickness and absenteeism
and reduced productivity and economic competitiveness, resulting in
a shrinking tax base, less foreign investment and fewer jobs. |

Just Because You Are Impatient Does NOT Mean I Have To Move Any Faster
| |
| Have we evolved into beings that have become so selfish and self absorbed that we have forgotten about our own self control? The ability to keep your mental, emotional and physical being, in check, requires self-control. The inability to do so is a sign that you are "out of control." When you easily lose your self control, you will most certainly fire off outbursts of anger, temper and blame on others. |

What You Control
| |
| You may not be able to control if your job gets cut, but you can control whether you're a high performer who your boss is fighting to keep. You may not be able to control how quickly you get another job, but you can control the number of daily contacts you make in your search and how you "show up," future-focused, at the interview. You may not be able to control the amount of work you get, but you do control whether you're responding as a victim or taking action toward developing your skills and contacts for a new future.

Shocking Treatment Proposed For AIDS
| |
| "Shocking treatment proposed for AIDS
Zapping the AIDS virus with low-voltage electric current can nearly eliminate its ability to infect human white blood cells cultured in the laboratory, reports a research team at
the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York City.
William D. Lyman and his colleagues found that exposure to 50 to 100 microamperes of
electricity - comparable to that produced by a cardiac pacemaker - reduced the infectivity
of the AIDS virus (HIV) by 50 to 95 percent. Their experiments, described March 14 in
Washington, D.C., at the First International Symposium on Combination Therapies,
showed that the shocked viruses lost the ability to make an enzyme crucial to their
reproduction, and could no longer cause the white cells to clump together - two key signs
of virus infection."

Are you following a Sales Process?
| |
| If not, you are not only wasting your time, but you are also losing sales because of it. You think you are in control but in reality you are out of control.
Have you ever been rejected? If your answer is yes, you have just proven that you are not in control of the sales process; however, the buyer is in control.
Isn’t it your job and responsibility as a sales professional to qualify the prospects and to reject them if they are not qualified?
Who is really qualifying? Who is really in control? |

Assessing Our Ability to Influence Others
| |
| In our personal and leadership development workshops we often conduct a 'degrees of control' exercise. We ask participants to come up with examples in the following areas: 1. Direct Control; 2. Influence; and 3. No Control. While there's often lots of debate and not always full agreement, examples under No Control generally include things like the weather, the economy, natural disasters, freak accidents, and the like. Discussions about my degree of Direct Control usually boil down to just one thing - me. However, some autocratic people fool themselves into thinking they have direct control over their teams, kids, or people reporting to them. Many other people are quick to surrender to the Victimitis Virus and declare they have no control or even influence over the behavior of anyone else. |
