Gossip is in the Ear of the Beholder.
| |
| Friends, Romans, Countrymen-do not lend me your ears.
I come to bury gossip, not to praise it. For the quality of slander is not restrained. It is twice cursed. Gossip curseth him that gives and him that takes. Especially when trying to build trust in a work situation. |

IS THERE ANY VALUE IN YOUR VALUE PROPOSITION FIVE TIPS FOR COMMUNICATING THE REAL VALUE OF YOUR SERVICES
| |
| By John Doerr
Are You Different?
In the course of my work with all manner of professional service firms, I hear a very common lament. “We are becoming a commodity. The prospects just seem to buy on price. We are really good. How can I possibly separate myself from the crowd?”
