Environmental Awareness
| |
| Last year I researched a number of organizations that had an exceptional business. Among the many things that I learned was that each one is focused on environmental issues. The level of environmental focus varied from one organization to another, but the consistent finding was that the commitment started at the top, it came from the leader. |

How many people does it take to change a light bulb
| |
| I was told about a recent article in the Weekend Australian Magazine. The article looked at a study by the University of Chicago. that found that if we excluded all animal based foods, including dairy and eggs, from our diet, that change would benefit the environment more than buying an eco-friendly car. Apparently 23% of a typical Australian diet comes from animal sources and so generates almost 1.5 tonnes more greenhouse gases per person per year than a vegan diet of the same calories. |

Business credit remains tough in difficult times
| |
| There’s been a lot of talk about the impact of the global financial crisis on interest rates and access to finance.
Whilst the banks maintain that they are providing finance, and certainly that appears to be the case with residential mortgages, the availability of finance to business remains an issue. It is finally receiving a greater level of attention in the mainstream press, with The Australian and Australian Finance Review both publishing articles on 27 March. |

Change starts with you

| “Only Government can fix the mess we are in”, President Obama.
“Government is the problem…”, Nate McCulloch Gwinnett Daily Post
We speak of government as if it were our neighbor, pastor, teacher, friend or foe. It is none of these and yet it is all of these. Government, at any level, is simply an organizational structure and is incapable of any action or activity until people are inserted into the equation. Our founding fathers meant it when they said “of the people, by the people and for the people”
So the problem and/or solution lie with us.

If Business Ran Like the Government
| |
| The big news these days is the federal government’s debt ceiling. Every time Washington gets into one of these messes - which it does a lot - people renew the discussion about how government should be run. “If I ran my company the way they run the government…” The outcome is usually bankruptcy or prison. Should government be run like a business? That’s a debate for another article. But, the surprising thing is many business ARE run like the government. Do you understand how to manage cash flow in your business? Does your company cater to special interests, waste money or time or push problems aside instead of addressing the real issue? |

Renewing Limited Government: Term Limits
| |
| In America, the "land of the free," the government has run amok. The Founders, who fought (and in some cases, died) to leave a country wherein citizens were to rule and the government was supposed to be limited, would be shocked at the size of the behemoth that is the modern federal government. And many states have just as bloated a bureaucracy.... |

Are you providing what people want or are you trying to provide what you think people need?
| |
| The Australian Government is currently and desperately trying to make law what they think people need in immigration, dealing with climate change, gambling, and in a host of other areas. They are failing miserably because they do not listen to what stakeholders actually want.
I am staggered by the amount of business owners I meet who try and build a business around what they think people need, rather than providing what people want. |
