Eating For Success: Fast Lunch Ideas for Busy People
| |
| Remember the days when you actually had time to take a lunch break? When you used to leave the office for an hour, have something to eat, meet up with friends, walk in the park, play sport or wonder around the shops…? These days people eat lunch at their desks more often than not, if they eat at all. For many people, the demands of the day just don’t let up long enough to afford them a break. Lunchtime rolls around, your stomach is rumbling and you know you should eat, but you’ve just got one more thing to finish. An hour goes by, your stomach is still gurgling, but you’ve just got one more deadline, phone call, impromptu meeting, email to reply to….and before you know it, you’re reaching for a coffee or chocolate bar to get you through, and that’ll have to do for lunch. |

Commitment: It Must Be Leveraged by the Organization
| |
| Commitment is that attitude which if employed in an orchestrated strategy, with highly capable well-trained people, and led by obsessive visionaries (leaders), can be the power, which assures success in almost any venture.

How To Know When To Fire A Client Or Customer, According To Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach
| |
| One of the things business owners dread most is firing an employee. Well, there is another dread of business owners that is similar to that and it is the firing of a client or customer. The issue of firing a client or customer, or in other words ”letting go of a client or customer, is a real issue faced by all business owners. And I know from first hand experience that this is true. In my 25 years of business, I have “fired” clients and I have learned the strategic value of doing so. I have realized that not every client is the right or ideal client for me and that I have tried to become much more strategic in prospecting for and selecting my clients. Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach has developed a list of twelve (12) signals that will let you know that it is time to fire the client or customer and they are:

More is Said Than Done About Improving Customer Service
| |
| Effective teams, organizations, and leaders exist to serve others. And those who provide the highest levels of service/quality enjoy the richest rewards. That's not just some platitude or warm and fuzzy theory; it's become a well-proven fact. In Firing on All Cylinders I reviewed much of this evidence.

So it's not surprising that the best service/quality leaders are also profitable leaders.
