Teaching The Big Boys To Think Small
Last week I told you about a recent report from The Conference Board that has a lot of big company CEOs concerned about competition from smaller, more innovative and entrepreneurially-minded companies. To refresh your memory, The Conference Board's CEO Challenge 2004 reported that 87% of the 540 global businesses surveyed cited innovation and enabling entrepreneurship as priorities for their companies, and 31% considered these issues of "greatest concern.”

4P Screen For New Clients
A recent issue of Fast Company, a magazine for small-company CEOs, recommends screening new clients based on these 4 Ps:

It\'s good to be king
The Times and other outlets have been running a spate of stories about executive pay. CEOs who walked away with $100,000 a day paychecks, CEOs making millions of dollars at companies in trouble, CEOs with jets and houses and limos... It's like being a king, instead of having a job.
Add Corporate Blog Marketing to your SEO Toolkit
Want to increase your company’s presence online quickly and stand out as an industry leader? Start a corporate blog campaign with your company. When maintained properly, a corporate blog allows CEOs and other business executives the opportunity to connect on a personal level with prospects, increase sales and reach out to endless media representatives.
Role of Leadership in Planning
Executives love to talk about planning… most complain their processes don’t work very well. Harvard Business Review reports that only 11% of CEOs believe that strategic planning is worth the effort. Most planning processes are too complex, and only document decisions already made. CEOs have the responsibility to make their planning processes effective; I believe the key is to keep the processes simple and focused.
7 Tips To Boost Your Business in a Down Economy
Listening to the news and many CEOs, you would think the country is in a depression. At a minimum, these reports put listeners into a depression. While I’m willing to let a few individual businesses slide because of what they do (e.g. residential real estate in Miami), if your company is not growing the way you want it to, and/or margins are shrinking, the problem is inside your company. If you believe otherwise, you are deceiving yourself. In many cases, even in sectors where the group as a whole is doing poorly, you should still be able to do better than you’re doing. Just like Warren Buffet does in the stock market, you need to jump on opportunities when the market is down and be aggressive, not defensive.
Team Motivation Principles: Debunk the Crazy Propaganda that All CEOs are Greedy!
The current media and political communities are tearing down employee confidence in their management, especially CEOs, and this is substantially de-motivating work teams. With adverse impact upon business results looming, it is the employer's responsibility to address this issue with urgent attention. Most CEOs deserve respect, not contempt, and our employees need the benefit of the following message in response.
Choose It and Use It: An Executive’s Guide to Selecting and Using Outstanding PR
This guide will instruct CEOs how to choose a PR firm and how to utilize that resource to its fullest. This information should be on the desk of every business leader interested in the reputation of his or her company, products and services.
CEOs who sell gain clarity on competitive strategy
CEOs of Nike, Intel and Sun are becoming more involved in the selling process, focusing on tailoring products and services to meet the demands of their top customers. And it's more than just a ceremonial visit. These CEOs are overcoming objections and negotiating deals, giving them an intimate understanding of market pain and the value they may (or may not) provide.

Orchard survey shows that CEOs expect business climate to improve in 2010
A recent survey of CEOs showed that 88% of business leaders expect 2010 to be a better year for their businesses than 2009. The survey also showed that whilst 2009 was a difficult year for most, 75% of CEOs felt that they had learned some useful lessons from the recession.
Building a better board
CEOs are advised to build better boards, but doing so is hard. Most plough the leader's lonely furrow and board building does not make the priority list. Other CEOs recognise the value and build better boards, which provide solid advice, facilitate business introductions and help raise funding.
