A Foreign Affair: Carnegie Comes to America
“You cannot push anyone up the ladder unless he is willing to climb,” said Andrew Carnegie. Indeed, Carnegie was more than willing to climb that ladder, reaching new heights of success in his adopted home of America. As founder of the multi-million dollar Carnegie Steel Company and one of the most generous philanthropists in history, Carnegie established his legacy as one of the most successful entrepreneurs in history.

Just In Time
"Just In Time" is a factory warehousing idea that has roots in Japanese efficiency practices. It used to be that factories would warehouse the things they need to produce their products. Because of the timelines involved they might have three, six or even twelve months' supplies sitting in warehouses. By having inventory on hand factories could insure regular production schedules. They would not have to shut down production because they didn't have some necessary item.

Ten Questions With Aziza Mohmmand
What’s the most inspiring story of entrepreneurship that you’ve heard in 2006? My answer does not involve two guys in a garage who sell their company to Google for $1.6 billion. No way...my answer is a woman who runs a soccer-ball factory in Kabul, Afghanistan.
Lesson #2: Success is Built not Born
“I am a woman who came from the cotton fields of the South,” said Walker. “From there I was promoted to the washtub. From there I was promoted to the cook kitchen. And from there I promoted myself into the business of manufacturing hair goods and preparations....I have built my own factory on my own ground.”

Go Green With Organic Apparel
The days of faded synthetic fabrics are a thing of the past. Today's green movement has brought forth a new consciousness for how fibers are grown and manufactured. Organic cotton and natural fibers are replacing traditional fabrics and synthetic fibers. Just as concern over the harmful effects of insecticides and pesticides in our food supply has given rise to the demand for organic produce and vegetables, concern over the high use of insecticides and pesticides in growing cotton and other natural fibers has given rise to demand for organic cottons and garments free of these and other poisons and carcinogens.

Commitment Based Management
As we move into this new century, we can look back and see that the very nature of work has changed dramatically in the last 50 years, yet our practices of management are essentially unchanged from WWII. What we have done is add technology to a set of practices that were intended to be effective in a time when mass factory production and agriculture made up 95% of the global economy. Unfortunately these same practices are still standard at business schools and big companies around the word.
Success Online – 3 Simple Rules
Your website is your shopfront. Traditional businesses had a shop, factory, warehouse etc for people to come and visit when they wanted to purchase a product or service. For an online business the website is the place where people will visit and therefore being able to find that website is one of the most important aspects for achieving success.

Competing with the Retail Giants
Whether you call them power centers, factory outlets, off-price retailers, or mass merchandisers, shoppers perceive that they all deliver roughly the same thing: so-called good merchandise, one-stop shopping convenience, and a chance for customers to save a few bucks. They are popping up all over and their cash registers are ringing.

Entrepreneur Education: Hype Will Not Help You Succeed
Think of it this way, "the laws of attraction won't pay the mortgage". Too many of us were so busy wishing on a star we kept our heads buried in the sand as the economic skies were falling around us. So, the big question now? What is there to replace the frilly advice often filled with cotton candy?
Renewing Limited Government: Tenure Limits
Limit the factory of big-government liberalism that the American academic institution has become, and you'll go far toward restoring freedom, prosperity, and strength to America (and to the worldwide economy she leads).
