Effective Public Relations: The Obama Publicity Strategy
Politics aside, almost everybody would agree that President Obama is a masterful communicator. Obama is really United State’s first public figure to adeptly embrace the full power of the media. He is seizing both traditional and new media opportunities to deploy his messages in both an expeditious and ubiquitous manner.

Barack Obama Election Ushers in A Different World
This week I was interviewed by Dominic Carter of New York 1, on his program called Inside City Hall. New York 1 is an all-news program that is popular in New York City, and Dominic Carter is someone I have a great deal of respect for. He should have a national show, but then New York would miss out on his full time and dynamic presence here. He describes me as “a man not known for keeping his opinions to himself” and the interview spanned two consecutive nights.
The Little BIG Things
On July 28, 2004, I made my first Blogpost at tompeters.com. The topic was then-Illinois State Senator Barack Obama's speech to the 2004 Democratic Convention in Boston.

Why Entrepreneurs Are Like The Long Shot At Del Mar
Entrepreneurs starting businesses in the current economic climate have a real challenge yet an opportunity at the same time. It separates them from others who would never take risks, especially when times are very tough. This sets them apart from the competition. Entrepreneurs start business usually for one main reason: They see a problem, they are passionate about solving that problem, and will do everything necessary to achieve their goal of finding a solution to that problem.
The Only Way is Up
In so many ways our society reached rock bottom over the last six months. There are clear signs now that we are no longer going down and therefore we are going up.
Exercise and ADHD
To the average adult with ADHD exercise takes a back seat to almost all other activities. Work, family and friends, errands, sleep and even housework! These activities are important, however so is exercise. Exercise not only helps the longevity of your body, but it helps reduce some of the negative effects of ADHD too. For example, exercise improves your attention, mental focus, memory, mental stamina and allows you to expend pent up energy.
Do You Have The Likeability Factor?
Much of our success in life will be determined by our ability to sell ourselves to others. Whether in our personal or working lives; people will judge us by what we say and what we do. However, more importantly, this will be influenced by how likeable we are.
How to Invest in the New Economy
We already know that Obama likes to moon-light as a stock market guru, but can we be sure that his policies and rhetoric will be good for private business? Well that all depends. Look no further than the proposed budget and the stimulus program. The devil is in the details, as they say.

Why is the President Obama using YouTube?
The thing that I found interesting this weekend during my weekend surf through YouTube was a video by President Obama. The three-and-a-half minute video entitled “A New Year, A New Beginning.” was directed to the Iranian people. Barack Obama is trying bring the U.S. and Iran relations closer together by addressing the people directly. Obama used the internet extensively throughout his campaign and hopes that his message has the same effect with the Iranian people.
Education + Infrastructure + Innovation
We're not certain if President Obama borrowed the ideas -- education, infrastructure, innovation - -from others or came up with his own hook for his state of the union speech but he did lay down the gauntlet. We do know government officials around the globe has laid down the challenge of innovation for their citizens. Every Csuite executive has told his/her stakeholders that the company will innovate and be competitive leaders. We'll talk about a lot of innovations before we get one that works. And innovation is going to take a long time to have a positive impact so let's not abandon it too soon.

2008 was a very busy year. Astronology takes a look at the major happenings of 2008 and their implications on the human resource industry.
Building a Foundation for a Stronger Company: Hope, Unity and Purpose
Hope, Unity and Purpose. These are the foundational words that the future generations of corporate leaders are using to build better people, better products, better brands and better businesses in a changing world. Many companies like SHARP, GE, Whirlpool, OwensCorning and Shaw Industries are developing “eco and green” products that enable customers to achieve their goals toward sustainability and individual responsibility to reduce their footprint on the earth. These companies are the foundation by which a new economy is being formed, one that is more robust and transparent that its predecessor; and one that is responsive to the needs of a global society.

Pick Yourself Up and Dust Yourself Off
In my mind, there isn't a group of professionals more suited and more deserving of hearing those very words than salespeople. I have listened to more complaining, excuse making, whining, sob stories and negativity in the last 90 days than at any other time in the 24 years I have been in the sales development business.

A Call to Action for the Sales Force
Al Gore has become more famous for his call to action against global warming than he ever was as Vice President of the United States. Pope John Paul II was noted for his "stand up for life" call to action. The charities that you support have calls to action that either inspire you or embarass you into giving. Yesterday, Barack Obama included a call to action in his inaugural speech.
Yes We Can! The networking lessons businesses can learn from Barack Obama's successful election campaigns
Barack Obama's victories in both the Democratic Primaries and the Presidential election went against the predictions of many of the pundits. It's been widely discussed how Obama used social networks to an extent not previously seen. But how did networking in general contribute to his unexpected success?
Communicating Your Corporate Sustainability Strategy
As more companies publicly disclose their corporate social responsibility and sustainability efforts in annual reports, press releases, investor presentations and marketing collateral it will be crucial for good communications. There is a risk of under-and-over stating your sustainability story to the public. Increasingly the general public and all stakeholders are becoming more educated on best practices in corporate governance, social responsibility, environmental management, and sustainable business models and practices.

Florida Homeowners Insurance Provider
President Barack Obama put in position the American Recovery & Reinvestment Act of 2009 that authorizes a new tax credit of up to $6,000 for qualified first-time Florida home purchasers that have insurance. You have to hurry up and make the most of the program since it will disappear starting December 1, 2009. You simply have a few months left to get pre approved from the mortgage loan provider for the new mortgage loan. Upon your financing acceptance, be sure to shop on the web for the most effective home insurance plan available. The World Wide Web allows you the client to shop for household insurance coverage on the internet from the ease of your lazy boy. Make sure you assess quotes from a minimum of five of the top rated Florida homeowners insurance carriers in the state right now.

Democrat/Republican HR Positions – Election Preview

Obama’s “Birther” PR Mistake
If there was a video that showed President Obama being born in Hawaii and that video was released to the media, it wouldn’t matter a bit. The Birther movement revolves around accusations and diversions and you do not (and more importantly you cannot) battle that type of attack, at least via the media, with facts. The Birthers are akin to a religious cult; you are not going to weaken their faith with something as cumbersome as reality. Obama’s strategic PR mistake was that he began to take them too seriously. He then took them on by trying to put out fire with gasoline.

The Value of Your Personal Brand
When Barack Obama recently won the Nobel Peace Prize, he proved that your own personal brand can deliver results beyond measure. Whether or not he actually deserved the accolade has been well debated elsewhere. The bottom line is, when it comes to brand, ‘perception is reality’.

How Obama's tax credit helps/hurts IT spending
Do you hold off on IT spending until Congress acts on the credit? Among the proposals President Barack Obama made this week to boost the U.S. economy is one that will allow businesses to write off all of the investment they do in 2011. But there's a lot of uncertainty ahead for IT managers interested in this tax break.

Truly Inspirational Leaders Are Selfless
A Recession is when your neighbor loses his job... a Depression is when you lose yours... and a Recovery is when Barack Obama loses his.

Statism Of The Union II
As far as the observation that both have (or had) the ability to make great speeches, I'll concede that Presidents Reagan and Obama are similar. But the similarities end there. In terms of real substance, Barack Obama definitely ain't Ronald Reagan....
