Are Your Top Web Rankings True and Identical for the Entire World Audience?
Some people have been catching on to this, but when we first talked about it back in 2004, very few people really believed that traditional ranking would ever change.

Sales Experts Disagree on the Right Way to Train Salespeople
I was involved in a nearly week long, on line discussion with about a half dozen other sales experts in the Top Sales Experts Group at LinkedIn that to date has included about 41 volleys.

A Matter of Trust
Trust is the basis for all successful leaders and all successful relationships for that matter. You cannot buy trust, but it is free. Trust is priceless yet can be earned over time. Have you ever tried to request someone’s trust? Maybe it was a team member, customer or a colleague. You may have wanted a decision to be made in your favor. To overcome some initial disagreement and expedite the decision making process, you might resort to “Hey, just trust me!” That statement is worthless. Either the other party already trusted you based on your past actions or they did not trust you and your request won’t change that. Trust is not spoken, it is demonstrated. Trust cannot be requested, it must be earned.

Being right
Being right can leave us with a sense of self-affirmation but it may involve conflict with others who also see themselves as right. Being right involves matters like the social consensus, received doctrine, social rules, and necessities for living together, but it is worth reflecting on how far this term can also be a trap. Insistence on being right may not always serve us and there are times when it is more useful to let go and allow another possibility to emerge.
Change: Communicate! Communicate! Communicate!
Change can exhibit itself in many different forms and in many different ways. A thing, system, process, etc., can be altered, converted or replaced by giving it a different form through transformation, reengineering or reinventing. The reason for change occurring can also be reactive or proactive. The point being, change has become our constant companion in many different forms and from many different directions. Those people and organizations that can develop the capacity to undergo spontaneous change will most likely be the ones who will be best prepared for the future.

On the Attack!
At an Inc. magazine forum last week, I found myself on the attack. The target? Me.
