Vista… If We Didn’t Have Darth Vader We’d Invent Him
Bill Gates departed Microsoft leaving Steve Ballmer in charge of a rapidly changing world. Some feel Microsoft will die under the weight of itself. Others are certain that Vista is just a symptom of the worst yet to come. But is it really that bad or is it a case of the fact that we really don't like change? After all the Mac OS has its issues as well.

Managing Organizational Stars
What contributes to an individual's ability to remain a star? To what extent does past star performance predicate future star performance? And to what extent does a key organizational factor—colleague quality—help or hinder the ability to sustain star performance? The performance of stars is an important career matter for individuals as well as for managers who want to inspire, nurture, and recruit stars.
Are You On The Verge Of Quitting
I believe if you're an entrepreneur or in sales - you deserve a gold star! Why? Because we're people who don't get regular pay cheques like the rest of the madding crowd. We ONLY get paid when we SELL. (Now look in the mirror because I just pasted a BIG Star on your forehead!) And sometimes it feels like sales are slow, no one is calling you back, and you couldn't come up with a new idea if your life depended on it. (thank goodness that's not the case!)

The Evolution (Not Death) Of SEO

Why Good Looking Mobile Home Parks Have Ugly Returns
Some mobile home park buyers have this erroneous idea that the goal is to buy a great looking asset. They even rate the parks they look at based on physical appearance. The star system is a good example. Most people think a five-star park is always superior to a one star park. However, the only real star system they should consider is which park is a superstar on cash flow. Because at the end of the day, all that really matters when you own a mobile home park is making money. Parks that make money are great, no matter how ugly they are, and parks that lose money are dogs, despite how cute their entry may be. And, as a general rule, the prettier the park, the uglier the cash flow.

Leadership Tip: Dream On
Remember when you were a kid and the first evening star began to beckon in a slowly dimming sky? Were you the kid who said "star light, star bright, I want the wish I wish tonight?" Did someone tell you to stop being "so childish" or were you supported in wishing your dream? It has been said that without vision the people will perish. When we stop looking toward an ideal that we are reaching for the world becomes flat and stale. In all leadership development programs there needs to be a module on keeping dreams alive.
Are you a Star?
Can you be a "star" all the time - shining and twinkling high above everyone else, every day? I think a few remarkable people can, but much more attainable for most is being a "star" some of the time.
Innovation Champions, Skunkworks, and Organization Learning
Advertising executive, Charles Brower once said, "A new idea is delicate. It can be killed by a sneer or a yawn; it can be stabbed to death by a quip and worried to death by a frown on the right person's brow." When innovations are in the exploration stage, they need a champion to take them through the rest of the developmental stages.
The Requirements to be a 10 / 10 Sales Professional
