11 Common Faults of Meeting Management:¡¥How To Meet Less and Achieve More¡¦ plus having everyone look forward to your meetings. Conducting meetings is a requirement of leadership. A key competence in how to run a business successfully, whether you¡¦re the owner of the company, a manager or a team leader; if you want to really get good at being a successful leader, motivating others to higher performance, then you want to learn to avoid 'death by meeting'.

Handling Critics
I'm comfortable in saying that anyone who has ever done anything of significance has been, at one time or another, unfairly criticized by those who believe they deserve a reward for finding fault.
Okay, I agree, it’s time to take to the road again!
I admit it, I have been lost in space. I have been under the weather, dialing for the invidious dollar, hiding in the cloak of my own fearful imagination, waiting for the other shoe to drop, worrying about phantoms, ghosts, shadows sliding across the wall, ex-wives, a couple of my five children who stopped speaking to me, preparing myself every morning to sit down and write, my new book for one thing, even took to reading my old books just to see whether or not I have actually written anything I could claim my stake on, believe me.

8 Reasons You Are Not Getting a Job Offer
Are you really too old, too young, overqualified or lacking the right education? Is the deck really stacked against you? Not likely!! Chances are you only need to improve the way you present yourself. Recently, a lady approached me after one of our seminar presentations on Career Management. She had been through 63 job interviews and wanted me to look at her resume to see what was preventing her from getting job offers. Hearing that she had 63 interviews let me know I did not need to look at her resume at all; it was doing an excellent job, getting interviews is the only purpose of a resume. So her problem was not in the resume, but something in her personal presentation.

Marketing, sales and service silos why?
For people in the communications industry it is appalling that there is a lack of real communication occurring between their marketing and sales departments. All too often I see departments vying for budgets, leadership, ideas, etc. Some people believe marketing drives the engine and sales are irrelevant, or sales are king and what is marketing anyway? It's not just the sales people. Some organisations don't even know the difference between marketing and sales or don't see the connection between the two in the first place.
Extended Warranties: Sensible Insurance or Waste of Money?
Paul Champagne saved the Canadian Department of Defence more than a billion dollars over a ten-year period by "ripping up a couple thousand extended warranties", according to Maclean's magazine (6 July 2009). That's a number that's hard to argue with. So we took a closer look at extended warranties: the pros, the cons, who really benefits from them. The conclusion? Extended warranties are a very expensive form of insurance. They are a cash cow for retailers, yielding profit margins of 50% and more. The benefit to consumers is dubious, to say the least. This topic is the sixth in our 2009 white paper series: "Making every IT dollar count!" The full white papers are available on our website.

How to Earn Respect at the Office
Many struggles at work can be attributed to one major symptom: a lack of respect from your co-workers, subordinates or supervisors. But, if you feel there is a lack of respect, how do you go about regaining or earning that trust from those in your workplace? Do you go around demanding that others respect you because of your title or position?
How To Commit Career Suicide
Picture this…you are having an amazing career. You are working on some of the most exciting work ever. You just love your job.

Build Prosperity and Strong Relationships With L.O.V.E
I had the honour recently of interviewing Evelyn Tian. Evelyn is a Singaporean woman living in Australia. She shared a story that started with volunteering to pack and send envelopes for the 2000 Olympics Committee here in Australia 10 years ago. That simple act of giving lead to an amazing trail of events that lead to her becoming the African Attache for the Olympics and Para-Olympics. This started Evelyn on an incredible journey to Africa for 6 months where she worked with disabled women and children, introducing wheelchair sports and fund raising for home made wheelchairs. She is now working toward helping disabled orphans in Africa.
5 Ways to Use Your Blog
We all know that blogs have emerged as powerful marketing tools, especially for the solo entrepreneur. Here are five practical ways to use your blog to promote your business and build a following of loyal prospects.
Enhancing Your Self-Image
Success is an inside job. Even if your body and mind are ready, willing, and able to learn and do whatever is necessary to get the job done, a negative self-image may stop you. Although we create many outward images of ourselves-so we can interact with or impress others and sell our ideas or services-we only have one self-image. The way we view ourselves determines the level of success we attain in anything. To achieve more success, some parts of our sense of self will have to change.

WASTING YOUR TRAINING BUDGET
Until organizations move from “quick fix” training interventions to a willingness to define exact outcomes and engage in a long term process to reach those outcomes, most of the training budget will continue to be wasted.
UNDERSTAND OTHERS BY UNDERSTANDING YOURSELF

Reality Check
The real world is highly competitive and moving on with or without you. Life is not fair, everyone has a bad day, life is a constant test, and you will get paid what the market thinks your skills are worth. There are winners and losers in all walks of life, you are accountable for your own mistakes, and the world will expect you to accomplish something significant to increase your self-esteem.

Counselling Employees To Build on Strengths
A current management fad is that we only truly improve by building on our strengths. Peter Drucker started this trend back in the fifties, but it has become increasingly popular in the last decade or so, especially with the writings of Marcus Buckingham, et al. Building on strengths is indeed the best way to improve performance and the key to success, whether in business or in life. This article provides some helpful pointers on counselling employees and subordinates to magnify their strengths and minimize their weaknesses.
