Leadership Beliefs Are the Initial Gap
When looking to the "whys" of not hitting the results, many look to the leadership skills within the organization or even within themselves. If leadership is about securing results using clearly articulated core values, then what is keeping those results from happening? Possibly, the answer lies within the beliefs of those involved?
Managing Sales Activity for Success
Now that we have our sales force in place, it’s time to manage them. To be blunt, most company owners (and/or sales managers) do this incorrectly. Too often in sales, the only feedback given to salespeople ties to their results. Certainly, results are important, and they are ultimately the measurement of achievement. Unfortunately, results are not something that can be managed. Results are history – they have already happened. Activity is what is happening, or what is about to happen. Clearly, then, activity becomes the manageable part of the sales force.

African Economic Performance in 2004: A Promise of Things to Come?
Against a backdrop of sustained global growth and high commodity prices, Africa has experienced its best economic performance in many years. While recent economic performance is not merely driven by favourable external factors, African economies still lack proper “shock-absorbers” to withstand internal (e.g. drought and floods, political instability, HIV-Aids, etc.) and external (e.g. volatility of commodity prices and exchange rates) shocks alike. They remain strongly vulnerable. In this context, creating the conditions for the development of indigenous drivers of economic activity (starting with a thriving local private sector) is a top priority.
Solid Growth in Sight, but There Are Risks
Solid growth is expected to continue in 2005 and 2006 – although at a slightly lower rate of 4.7 per cent in 2005 as the effect of new Central African oil fields ends. West Africa is expected to recover in 2005 and 2006, while the trend of positive growth in Eastern Africa and Southern Africa will continue over the next two years, reflecting rising oil production in Angola and improved performance in South Africa. This positive outlook is however highly dependent on the continuous expansion of the global economy, an overall easing of regional conflicts, and favourable weather conditions.
Business Advisors: Results Are the Top Priority
If you want to set your consulting and coaching practice apart, you should be able to explain exactly the results you get for clients — and those results should be compelling. But what exactly are results?
Objective Reality
If you want to create results that are truly important to you, it is critical to separate your identity (who you are) from the results you want. Feeling good or bad about yourself has little bearing on the quantity or quality of your results. If you doubt this, consider famous people with extreme self-doubts or poor self-concepts who produced spectacular results. The results of standardized tests indicate that students who "felt good about themselves" often performed lower than the scores they predicted they would achieve.

Lesson #2: Make Sure You Are Clear On Your Purpose
It is said that those who know Simon Fuller either love him or hate him. On the more favourable side, his role in the music industry has been compared to the late Brian Epstein, the Beatles’ manager responsible for the great British Invasion. On the other hand, Fuller has his critics who denounce him as someone who has sullied the music business with talentless artists and made fame a characteristic that can come irrespective of talent.

First Impressions
Picking up from my recent posting We'll meet again... I thought it would be worth looking at how First Impressions can impact our opinions of other people and their opinions of us. In turn first impressions can affect the desire to work together or not. Have you ever regretted a time when you didn’t make a favourable first impression? Did you wish you could have your time over again to make a more positive impression? I am sure you are not alone. We can all think of a time when we messed up. As the old saying goes: ‘You don’t get a second chance to make a good first impression’.
Alaska's Climate
The climate in Alaska is one of extremes, although there are differences across the regions of this country. Most of the country's population is found in the southern parts of Alaska where weather conditions are less extreme. Summer time is the most favourable, especially for tourists where long moderate days are common.
