Just Say "No!"
Did you know that saying "No" can actually be doing a favor for the person you are talking to? Really -- it can!! It is also something that is really hard for overachievers to do. And that is what we are right? As entrepreneurs we take on all kinds of things, but sometimes they are not the right things for the time.

Marketing Means Networking
Branding is always about YOU. Yes, branding your company name is helpful, and branding your goods and services is a nice idea. But the more people who know and appreciate you, the more business you'll do. In the end, marketing is about networking.

Three Strategies for Coaches, Consultants, and Business Advisors to Reach Top Decision Makers
As the title suggests, this article helps business advisors reach top decision makers.

5.13 Gender: Working Out of Poverty
Review of policies to promote equal opportunities and treatment of women in employment and self-employment, and as entrepreneurs.

5.12 Social dialogue: Working Out of Poverty
Promotion of tripartite mechanisms to strengthen the decent work dimensions of national economic and social development policies aimed at poverty reduction.

5.7 The Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper process: Working Out of Poverty
The ILO experience

3.2 Investing in jobs and the community: Working Out of Poverty
Spending on infrastructure represents about 20 per cent of total investment in developing countries, and from 40 to 60 per cent of public investment, according to the World Bank. A reorientation of policies on infrastructure investment to ensure that technically viable and cost-effective employment-intensive options are used speeds the reduction of poverty by generating productive and decent employment. The challenge is to develop the appropriate mix of capital- and employment-intensive investment techniques according to each country’s needs and resources.

1.13 Working safely out of poverty: Working Out of Poverty
The poorest workers are the least protected. More often than not, prevention of occupational accidents and diseases is missing from the agenda where they work. Hazardous work takes its toll on the health of workers and on productivity. It is unacceptable that the poor must be resigned to facing disproportionate risks to their safety and health because they are poor. South Asian countries are tackling hazards to workers, communities and the environment in the ship-breaking industry, and the ILO is working with them and other international partners to do so. We are showing that improvements can be made in working conditions and the environment in micro and small informal enterprises by low-cost investments that also raise productivity.

The Importance of Community Relations
There are some powerful relationship realities between various community groups and organizations. Corporations and institutions must prove their validity, honesty, and trustworthiness every day. Community relationships are effectively maintained primarily through engagement with various publics and audiences within the community and your organization.

Give a Little Bit
Do you know the quickest way to build your financial empire? It's not by saving, investing, or getting a second job. Nor is it by anything dishonest or unethical. It's by giving, sharing, or tithing. That's right, giving money to organizations, and causes that you value personally, especially those in your own community, is the fastest way for prosperity to grow.

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.

Six Stages in the Evolution of a Business Requirement
Business requirements exist in the wilds of organizations around the world. We do not really know whether business requirements exist at all until we capture them. To ensure the safety of the business community and the developer community, the job of the business analyst is to tame these requirements. To be tamed, the requirements has to evolve through the phases of sentenced, whatified, scoped, clarified, quantified, and confirmed.

Community Involvement the Wrong Way
There are wrong ways to demonstrate community involvement as well. If you volunteer to work on a committee but are never available for meetings, or if you sponsor a little league team and don't show up for games, you're proving yourself to be crass and superficial, probably sucking up the community to get business instead of working for it for altruistic reasons. Consumers are more sophisticated than ever these days. People know the difference between serving the community and serving yourself. If you're not willing to devote honest time and energy to your community, you're better off skipping this weapon and leaving it to the real guerrillas in your community. I just hope for your sake that none are your direct competitors.

Marketing Yourself is a Core Competency
When we use the term “marketing”, most people think of products, services and commodities. How about ourselves – marketing our talents, accomplishments and value – inside our organizations as well as outside within our profession, industry and community. Are we comfortable talking about ourselves in this way? More importantly, are we prepared to talk about ourselves in this way – packaging our talents and accomplishments – showcasing them and presenting our value internally within our organizations and externally within our chosen fields & communities?
