Profit at Any Cost?
Has the economy pushed us so far, the need for profitability grown so strong, that we are willing to sacrifice customer focus? Are we willing to ignore customer safety to avoid a deeper exploration of our business practice that might impact revenues, or force the recall of an unsafe product?

What is Marketing in the First Place?
Marketing is absolutely every bit of contact any part of your business has with any segment of the public. Guerrillas view marketing as a circle that begins with your ideas for generating revenue and continues on with the goal of amassing a large number of repeat and referral customers. The three keys words in that paragraph are EVERY, REPEAT, and REFERRAL. If your marketing is not a circle, it's a straight line that leads directly into Chapters 7, 11, or 13 in the bankruptcy courts.

Ever Dance the Google Dance?
For those who know Google well like us, the Google Dance is not a dance at all. It's when Google changes their ranking algorithm significantly to try to get better search results on a Google search. Google calls it 'improving the users experience'. Companies that depend on natural search listings on Google probably see it as the 'dodge the bullet' dance. They hope they don't get impacted much by the algorithm update. This comes along only 1-3 times a year and is referred to as the Google Dance and is NOT advertised in advance.

Who Is In Your Circle of Influence What Does That Say About You
We have heard that old saying, “You are judged by the company you keep.” That saying is important in our business life and our personal life. Who you associate with will say as much about you, your ethics, your integrity, your honesty, your core values, your beliefs, your passion and your future intentions as your actual personal behavior does. And as a business owner or business leader, you are being observed every minute of every day. Colleagues, clients, vendors, suppliers, et al are all scrutinizing, watching, listening to those people you influence. Therefore, this is a serious matter for consideration when you decide who will be in your circle of influence. Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach challenges you to stop and look around you. Who do you see? Who is there? Who is in your circle of influence?

When times are tough it could be the best time to dance

How I Learned To Dance And How You Can To
Why am I penning an article titled "How I Learned To Dance And How You Can To?" Furthermore, why should you care? Good questions. Do you remember when you were learning the latest dance steps as a teenager? You would get together with your friends and practice the latest steps. Remember the swaying of the hips, the popping of the fingers, clapping your hands, the fancy foot movements, singing along with the music and having so much fun and laughter making missteps. Oh, I intended to say mistakes and actually enjoying the mistakes because you knew they were a necessary process to learning the dance.

A Lesson from a 4-Year-Old
If we were to conduct a poll among the readers of this column to determine how many of you could sing or dance, I fear that we would receive the overwhelming message that the vast majority of adults feel they have no talent in these areas. On the other hand, if we were to conduct the same poll among 4-year-olds, we would find that virtually all of them are convinced they can sing, and virtually all of them have confidence in their ability to dance.

Why Should I Trust You As My Leader?
It happens all the time. We “require” the employees of our organization to blindly trust in the changes we implement, although we haven’t fully explained the transformation and the reasons behind it. Quite often the change and the reasons behind it might seem quite obvious to those who have the inside information and are part of the management inner circle. To employees outside of the circle, however, the change causes impact, discomfort and anxiety. As executives of our organization, should we expect compliance and blind trust, or is the responsibility on our shoulders to communicate and lead?

Entrepreneurs and the “Oh! No!” Trap
Ever hear of the “Ohno Circle”? It was started by Taiichi Ohno on the Toyota shop floor decades ago. Mr. Ohno was known to draw a chalk circle around managers and engineers and have them stand still in the circle to observe and document all the problems in that particular production area. They had to stay and stand for hours to see and understand what was not working and then figure out how to fix the issues.
