Lesson #5: Religion and Business Can Go Hand in Hand
“No matter what I did, I knew I had five priorities in life,” says Monaghan, “physical and mental health, as well as the social, the spiritual and the financial. But the most important thing I could be was a good Catholic. That is my No. 1 priority. There's no compromising that.”

Lesson #5: Religion and Business Can Go Hand in Hand

The Six Pillars of Market Leaders

20 Tips To Initiate & Inspire Innovation From Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach
The word innovation appears frequently in advertisements, positioning statements, branding, marketing, mission statements and is used by most businesses and organizations in some fashion or form. But the question is how many businesses and organizations really make innovation a top priority? And how many businesses and organizations are truly good at innovation? One recent AMA/HRI study found that although most organizations say that innovation is a top priority, few companies are actually good at it. So, with that in mind, Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach offers the following list of twenty (20) tips to inspire and initiate innovation for you and your business.

Organizational "Strange Actractors"
We have for the most part looked at organizations in a traditional linear view and constantly put people, teams, departments, divisions and organizations in general into boxes often connected with lines. This is fine when trying to show where individuals reside within the context of organizations; however, it is not how organizations work.
Sales Training – Top Ten Departed Traits for Winning Sales
November celebrates a Catholic holiday called All Souls Day, a time for remembrance of friends and loved ones who have died. Salespeople might want to have a day of celebration to put to rest any attributes that are holding them back from winning more sales.
Company Vision, Mission, and Values, What’s the Difference?
I was asked recently by a friend to explain the difference between a vision statement, a mission statement, and a values statement. I must confess that I struggled to answer the question as many organizations seem to use these terms interchangeably. Then my parochial school education kicked in - I had heard a lot about people with a mission when at Catholic school - they called them “Missionaries”. So what was their mission? It could be described as to carry out the “Vision of Jesus of Nazareth” (he was certainly a visionary) and to do this in accordance with the values he espoused.

THE HISTORY OF FRANCHISING
A brief overview of the history of franchising throughout the years, starting with the Catholic church, to the first business to franchise and onto the growth of franchising in the 1990’s.

A Personal 'Mission Statement' Spells Success!
One of the latest "techniques for success" is the personal mission statement. Motivational and management gurus say these can be as effective in our own lives as they are in organizations. The real question is, how well do they really work in organizations? So often, after all the committees have fiddled with these statements, they end up as vague, watered-down platitudes that are quickly forgotten. So does that spell success, for either organizations or for us personally?
Leaders Make the Difference
All organizations have access to more-or-less the same resources. They draw from the same pool of people in their markets or geographic areas. And they can all learn about the latest tools and techniques. Yet not all organizations perform equally. In fact, there is a huge gap between high-and low-performing organizations. What accounts for this? Quite simply, it's people. As the venerable Peter Drucker points out, "Of all the decisions a manager makes, none are as important as the decisions about people because they determine the performance capacity of the organization."

Fractional Leadership – Strategy for leading the 21st century organization
As the world begins to climb out of what some are now calling the Great Recession, organizations are beginning to learn how to deal with unemployment, underemployment, and a growing self-employment sector. Organizations have learned along the way to do more with less and many have found that there are benefits to a leaner operation. In many cases, organizations have seen sizable drops in revenue that have forced them to downsize and in some cases resort to outsourcing and contract labor in an effort to stay lean, flexible and competitive.
