Communications Tips
"The Greatest problem in communication is the illusion that it has been accomplished." George Bernard Shaw The great quote by George Bernard Shaw confirms what I have experienced in my 35 plus year career. And in my past 23 years in my own business, I cannot think of a single instance where "communication" was not listed as a problem, challenge, frustration, irritant, etc. in the focus groups, discussion groups and other strategic planning endeavors I have conducted.

Work and Play
I will always remember George Burns stating, "If you love your job, you will never work a day in your life." George Burns enjoyed his life and his work for a century. If you enjoy what you do, you can substitute the "Thank God it's Friday" club for the "Thank God it's Monday" club.

Change or Be Changed
