Media Training Stresses Effective Communication With The Press
| |
| When I run media training seminars, I stress that reporters need help from anyone with expertise in the topics that journalists cover. No reporter can prosper without sources. Even the rawest cubs know they must have authoritative quotes to back up both sides of any story dealing with conflict -- political, financial, zoning, hostile takeovers, executive compensation, you name it. Controversy puts their stories on the front page. Where you come in is that you offer to help the business writer at your local daily or regional business periodical, or a byline name you see in one of those niche publications that are prospering as part of the so-called "trade press." React to a story they write, and tell them they can call on you for on-the-record expertise or "background." Media training can help you reach out for that free publicity. |

Company Stages Revisted
| |
| A few days ago I wrote about the transition from a small to medium to large business. I had a few people write to me with additional questions, including requests to define the sizes, talk more about the issues during the transition, and make suggestions about how to address things. One of the notes came from a long time friend – Barry Culman – who is currently the president of SPADAC (Spacial Data Analytics Corp.) I’m not involved in SPADAC, but Barry shared a framework that he used recently at a management retreat to explain his view of the evolution of a company. Following is a quick summary of the stages according to Barry.

Book Review: Persuasion: The Art of Getting What You Want
| |
| Dave Lakhni's book describes the fine line between the art of persuasion and manipulation (Dave was raised in a cult - he's well-studied in manipulation and has applied his knowledge effectively in business.) While a manipulator attempts to get you to do something you wouldn't normally do, a persuader tries to get you to choose them over the competition. |
