RIPKEN BELONGS IN BRANDING HALL OF FAME
This summer Cal Ripken will be inducted in the Baseball Hall of Fame -- not so much for his baseball numbers as for the fantastic brand he created. Cal’s career batting average is not even close to .300, and he did not average more than 25 home runs or 100 RBIs a season. Yet he is one of the most popular, memorable, and marketable players of recent history. Why?
Shared Services Simplified or How Barry Bonds’ Bat Weight Explained GoC Thinking
I was recently asked to provide a contextual point of reference that would assist the uninitiated public in understanding the reasons why the GoC’s Shared Services program has become such a contentious issue. The Answer was Baseball! Rather than getting into a complicated dissertation of the differences between an agent-based model versus an equation-based model where the prescribed processes reflect and therefore adapt to stakeholder characteristics and objectives, I tried to think of what I would say to one of my sports fanatic friends. And it hit me, the answer is baseball!

Baseball and Leadership
Baseball is a game that rewards the clever. As with adaptability, baseball games often hinge on the smallest and most ingenious plays. A pick-off at first base. A hit and run with two outs. A squeeze bunt. Leaders too will be rewarded for cleverness. Rather than simply replicating the results of predecessors or maintaining the status quo, the modern leader is required to seek different and creative methods and solutions.

Lesson #3: The Boss Can Come Back
If there is one thing Steinbrenner is famous for besides his ability to manage a great baseball team, it is his ability to get himself into trouble. From being banned from baseball for life to feuding with and changing managers 20 times, Steinbrenner is no stranger to controversy. But what is even more remarkable, is his ability to bounce back and reclaim the team he worked so hard to promote.

Why Prospecting is Like Baseball
The reason I want to talk about why prospecting is like baseball is because I recently saw a quote by Mickey Mantle that struck home: "During my 18 years in baseball, I came to bat almost 9,000 times. I struck out over 1,700 times and walked over 1,800 times. That means I played seven years in the major leagues without even hitting a baseball."

Raise Credit Score & Put Food On The Table or It's Bailout Time!
Spending less than we earn is an old school adage that will help during these trying times. How about credit scores though? Improve the most important number in your life to get the best deals on interest rates. Everybody can use help and improve credit scores.It makes sense to pay less interest. But do you really understand how credit works? Most do not.
Don't Let A Credit Score Define Who You Are!
You're much more than a number, I'm sure, but today more than ever people are caught up in credit scores and what they mean. My job is to help people with credit reports and to help them raise credit scores, but lately I'm doing the Dear Abby thing on my office sofa. Here's a reminder of who you are and that a credit score doesn't define you!
Two Important Qualities
There are a lot of similarities between business and baseball, and in ways they are interchangeable. I played baseball in high school and became captain of the team. I learned a lot about how teams can excel with the right leadership and with regard to the specific talents of each player. It was a great education.
CREDIT SCORES: WHAT AFFECTS IT AND HOW IT AFFECTS YOU
Credit scores are fickle and hard to predict. Credit scores are determined by analyzing credit records and are supposed to show a person’s creditworthiness. Since the score uses so many different factors, it is impossible to know for sure how much an action will raise or lower your score. Different actions will impact your score in different ways, and those ways can change based on your current score.
