Eyes Wide Open
I'm sitting in my hotel room in Palo Alto after 20 hours of travel from Hampshire, England. Amy and I took our Q3 vacation in the English countryside at the Hampshire Four Seasons where we had a glorious week off of the grid. I find myself really wanting to be tired, but I am so far beyond tired that I'm wide awake well past midnight California time.

Mentoring and Walking - Taking a Different Route
I am a very keen walker especially around the beautiful Hertfordshire countryside. Now one can get in a rut in walking as in business of always going the same way. I consider this principle in my latest article and find amazing value in taking a different route. I describe how I went for a walk with one of my clients near his home to great benefit to both parties. Read on and perhaps we can go for a walk too!

A plain English introduction to figuring out what social media tools and strategies will work for your business.

Multilingual Marketing
About 75% of the world’s population speak no English at all. At present count, that’s some five billion people you’re not able to reach if your online presence is English-language only. Add to that findings by the Chartered Institute of Marketing that ‘export sales of companies that make an effort to understand each nation’s way of life, consumer tastes, culture and language are growing by, on average, £290K per company per year,’ and you have a powerful incentive to go multilingual with your online marketing. Here’s how...

Watch your Language - the truth about language, diversity, and customer service
If you employ workers whose first language isn’t English, you may have come to regard these individuals as your organization’s greatest resource. They are hard working, appreciative, and utterly reliable. Unfortunately, these same workers may also be your organization’s greatest vulnerability. Employees whose English isn’t proficient may be unintentionally straining relationships with your customers. Simply put, if customers can’t easily understand your employees, they will take their business elsewhere; to a place where they won’t have to work so hard to spend their money. That’s why when organizations bring me in to do customer service training seminars for their team members, we occasionally need to address some of the language issues. Feel free to pass these tips to your team members …

Saving birds using ether?!
The fly paper that is so ugly, that you used to look at (with horror and 'yuky') in your grannies kitchen, that you eventually buy because here in the countryside EVERYONE has one or 2.3.4... in theirs and really the flies are a nusence! Di you ever see Hitchcock's 'bird's' film? gulp

What Are You Harvesting?
Talk about a cliche - we actually went for a drive in the country last Sunday. That's right, a "Sunday Drive," like people used to do two and three generations ago. It was delightful to roam around the southern Colorado countryside, with no time pressures and no particular destination. We ended up patronizing a roadside "farmer's market" fruit-and-vegetable stand, and it got me thinking about inspiration....

Yield of Dreams
n the early 1950s, Florence Chadwick became the first woman to swim the English Channel in both directions. During her first attempt, she had been swimming for hours and was getting very near to the English coast. That's when the seas turned much colder and heavy swells developed. A dense fog settled in blocking everything from view with a chilly wet blanket. As Florence's pace slowed and energy drained, her mother called through the fog from one of the small boats following behind, "Come on, Florence, you can make it. It's only a little further."

Great Leadership Requires Inspiration
Go out and take a walk. As you stroll around your city, town, or countryside, think of all the good things about it and remember why you chose to live there. Get out of town and take a hike in nature. As you walk around, think about all the wonderful things about your state or nation, and why you're blessed to live there. Walk around your home, inside and out, and think about all the reasons your own home is such a blessing, too....
