Lesson #5: You Are Worth More than Your Net Worth
Both before and after Candler became an internationally successful businessman, he had a clear grasp of the fact that he, and every other person along with him, was in possession of a number of intangible assets that went far further in determining his potential for success than did the amount of money he had in his bank account. After all, with less than $2 in his pockets when he first arrived in Atlanta, how else could the astounding success of Candler in starting up the Coca-Cola Company be explained?

Giving Back
Corporate America reached a new low yesterday when the chief executive officer of Nestle S.A. asked Boston College’s Chief Executives’ Club “What the hell have we taken away from society by being a successful company that employs people? Companies shouldn’t feel obligated to give back to the community.”
Objections are Requests for more Information
Think of objections as simply requests for more information. In other words, when the customer objects, he or she is simply asking: "Tell me how to justify this amount of money?" "How is this a better buy than your competitor´s product?" "Tell us how your other customers have dealt with their price concerns?" "Tell me why I should buy the product from you, and not your competitor?"
Beating your number one competitor - the status quo
The biggest competitor faced by most firms is not the high quality market leader or the low-cost overseas firm. For most businesses, their biggest competitor is the status quo - the client not doing anything.
The 8P’s of Persuasive Presentations
There are two major job responsibilities of a CEO. One is Chief Strategist. The other is Chief Story Teller. Just look at Apple’s, Steve Jobs, who excels at both. Considering that many people would rather die than speak in public, including CEO’s, comes this concise article detailing the 8P’s of Persuasive Presentations. Never be Boring Again!

There’s a slow, slow train comin’ up around the bend: Epilog for the Ariba Interviews
Under the headline “Ariba is in demand claims finance chief” (refer to the link of the same name in the Web Resources section at the conclusion of this post), Ariba’s chief financial officer Ahmed Rubaie claimed that “a 71% leap in subscription software revenues is proof that Ariba has firmly transitioned itself into an on-demand technology company.” My initial reaction was . . . “well, that only took a year and a half.”

What is CEO Time?
You're the Chief Executive of your small business. You're also the Chief Employee. CEOs make a lot of money. Employees do not. If you're not making a lot of money right now in your business, have a look at how much time you're spending as a "Chief Employee."
How to stop social networking sites killing your restraint of trade clauses
Dave knew that he had a problem when he came into the office one morning to see a LinkedIn update saying that one of his former employee’s had taken a senior position with his major competitor. But it wasn’t the fact that Mandy had moved to his competitor that started the alarm bells ringing, but that he had received a notification of the move in his inbox – he knew that 70% of his client base would have received the same email and may flock towards her.
Why Is the Chief People Officer Missing from the C-Suite?
The CEO, CFO, CIO and the list continues are recognized acronyms for executives in the C (Chief) suites. Yet what makes companies successful is people. So where is the Chief People Officer?
Is Your CFO REALLY a Chief Financial Officer
No offense to all those dedicated, competent, excellent performing CFO’s out there but I have to admit that I run into a number of individuals in business that hold the respectable title of CFO (Chief Financial Officer) that shouldn’t be the Chief of anything. Oh, some of these CFO impersonators do a good job as an accountant and some may even qualify as a Controller. But, there are some that just shouldn’t hold the title of Chief Financial Officer. “The chief financial officer (CFO) is a corporate officer primarily responsible for managing the financial risks of the corporation. This officer is also responsible for financial planning and record-keeping, as well as financial reporting to higher management. The CFO is also responsible for analysis of data”. So…… ask yourself; is your CFO really a Chief Financial Officer.
Title Inflation Emerges With A Vengeance
Suddenly, title inflation is everywhere. I’ve seen more business cards or email sigs lately with adjectives like “executive” or “senior” or “senior executive” or “special” or “chief” in front of more traditional titles (e.g. “vice president”). The “chief” one is especially bizarre since it’s not always obvious whether the CSO is a “Chief Sales Officer” or a “Chief Security Officer” which in and of itself is a problem.
