Creating Your Vision
| |
| As a youngster I often pretended I was the teacher and my friends were students in my class. When my friends didn't want to play I just used my dolls and stuffed animals. In later years I would daydream in class about how I could make the topic easier to understand or the class more fun than the teacher up front. I didn’t know it then but I was creating a vision. |

Crisis Management in the 21st Century
| |
| Crises may come in many forms: fires, floods, plant disasters, class action lawsuits--and these days, terrorist threats or attacks.
A properly-managed enterprise must plan for such contingencies, lest the onset of such a crisis end up in the extinction of the business. Remember--it may not be the crisis itself that results in your extinction--it may be your slowness to respond, or the inappropriateness of your response.
This paper looks at the type of planning and resources you need to dedicate to manage crises to best ensure the survival of your business. |

Is Your Sales Team a Winner or on the Way Out?
| |
| Think your sales team is in good shape because your customers rank them either good or very good? Think again. Nearly 80 percent of all supplier deserters rate their previous supplier as "good" to "very good," so the outlook for anything less than world-class excellence is not only disappointing but potentially career threatening. A 15-year study on world-class sales by The HR Chally Group determined that only 21 of 7,300 sales forces evaluated by 80,000 customer decision-makers were categorized as “world-class” by their customers. Benchmarking research within these same 17 "world-class" sales organizations, found that they all shared at least six of the following eight best practices: see article

Action Plan Example
| |
| Action plans are fairly common in business, but probably done wrong as often as not. A lot of people do not understand what an action plan is and often mistake it for a COE or Correction Of Errors, not one of my favorite types of documents. Having a good action plan starts with an understanding of what an action plan is and a great action plan example would be a huge help in this.
An action plan is a forward looking document and should be addressed as one. When looking at an action plan example one should take this into account. Action plans prevent business gaffs, keep everyone on task and help smooth out operations. In a way they could be considered a mini business plan, though I tend to look at them as a working business plan. |
