Caught In the Act!
I have worked relentlessly to keep this Blog apolitical. For at least two reasons: (1) We are about enterprise management. (With a few VT farm pictures thrown in from time to time.) (2) When a Blog "turns political," then intemperate remarks become the norm—I have spent the better part of the last two months beating up people of every stripe over intemperate language used concerning our presidential candidates.

Business, Politics and an Election
There is a revolution underway in our country and I hope that we find people who’ve managed in chaos before and gotten good results. I’ll borrow a couple of lines from the biblical book of Ecclesiastes. “To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven; a time to get, and a time to lose, a time to keep, and a time to cast away.”

Succession Planning: Refilling the Pipeline
In the next 3 to 5 years, the first surge of Baby Boomers is expected to exit the workforce. The volume of turnover could be unprecedented and its impact on all organizations will be dramatic. Beyond the loss of people, there will be significant loss of experience, knowledge, perspective and wisdom. This prospect of losing so much talent and knowledge in a short period of time has forced even the most reluctant to take notice and begin focusing on succession planning.

Golf and other things to make you giddy about work
I wonder how many brave entrepreneurs have overcome the naysayers and taken their crazy ideas to market only to fail, not because there was something intrinsically wrong with the idea, but because they hired the wrong people. Once you have that spark in your mind, who will build on your vision? Who will help you set realistic goals? Who will help you decide what you’re going to do and define what you’re not going to do? It has to be people you respect, trust and, yes, like.

Carly Fiorina
We might not ever know for sure if Carly Fiorina heard Donald Trump’s trademarked words – “Your Fired! ” But what we do know for sure is Carly has left Hewlett Packard after six years as chairman and CEO at the request of the board of directors. Both businesswomen and businessmen across the country know we have lost a charismatic, high profile executive who was never afraid to stand up for her convictions.
Decision-making vs. Decision-getting
“If you can’t get people committed to what you are trying to do, you can’t get it done.” Carly Fiorina, former HP CEO, October 12, 2009 More than ever before, these difficult economic times require efficient management and effective leadership. We believe that efficient management is all about “decision-making” while effective leadership requires the skill of “decision-getting”. Many expect our economy to turn around in the short term but what if it doesn’t? What if it gets worse over the next three + years. Do you and your organization have the skills to “get it done” in a worsening economy?
