Visionarys Disease and the CEO
We all know the value of vision. The Greek philosophers spoke about it. Former President George Bush recommended attention to "the vision thing." What happens when an organization's problem isn't a lack of vision but too much? What happens when the CEO's vision changes monthly, weekly, or even daily-driving his organization crazy? Welcome to Visionary's Disease. If you are consulting to someone who suffers from it, you are probably very frustrated.
5 Ways to Turn Recessions into Opportunities
The US is in recession according to pretty much everyone except George W Bush. So how to prepare for it? Make sure you have an income stream that's independent of an employer. Here are some steps you can take.
Motivational speaker: Boxing Legend George Foreman
George Foreman became heavy weight boxing champion of the world. Today he is a preacher, entrepreneur and the spokesperson for the George Foreman Grill with over 1 million units sold. And yes a motivational speaker. What could George Foreman, a former boxer, say that might motivate you?

Even George Washington Almost Got Canned Once
Did you know that in 1777, there was an effort to force George Washington to retire from the military service? I didn't -- until I took a look at Mark McNeilly's George Washington and the Art of Business: Leadership Principles of America's First Commander-in-Chief.

When leadership is not enough
Some people see leadership as being the person in charge or the person in control. The mental image of a leader is the person with the most authority. But there are many examples of organizations and countries that have had leaders and not been successful. Look at the difference between George Bush as a leader and Tony Blair. Both were leaders of their respective countries. However, people largely believe that Tony Blair was more of a leader than George Bush. The truth is, failing organizations had people who were leaders just as much as successful ones have leaders. Hitler was a great leader and so was Saddam Hussein. They were not the type of leader that I would want to have in charge of a country I lived in or company I worked for, but they were leaders.

Reach High-Profile Targets Quickly: Five Steps to the Artfully Manage the Gatekeeper
Last week's tip about breezing past the gatekeeper at events brought out tons of interesting comments - you guys are using your street smarts to meet everyone from ZZ Top to Swedish choir directors to George W. Bush.
Conservatism is Dead
In the 1990s, conservatives were vehemently opposed to nation-building. Wisely observing its gross failure in Vietnam, conservatives rightly objected to President Clinton's use of the American military to "liberate" Somalia, Haiti, and the Balkans. Even George W. Bush campaigned against "nation-building" in 2000. Here are "Five ways that the Conservative movement has lost itself."

Mobile Home Parks - Why Landscaping is the Best Investment You'll Make
Some people invest in Google. Some buy shares of Berkshire Hathaway. Other invest in Apple. But sheer investment geniuses invest in bushes. And trees. Because if you own a mobile home park community, these are, dollar for dollar, the best investments you will ever make. How good are the returns? I would estimate that one well placed $20 bush might add $1,000 of value to a mobile home park community. That's a 500% return on investment. And that's a lot better than any of the aforementioned stocks have produced lately. In fact, compared to the current stock market, if the bush was worth $10, it would still be better than the market has produced. And, unlike the market, at least the bush creates oxygen and has other productive uses.

Gas Price Signs: Unfair Right-Wing Messaging!
Gas has never been this expensive in America - and experts say this is just the beginning. But wasn't this all supposed to be George W. Bush's fault? As I recall, Bush, somehow in cahoots with Big Oil and Terrorist Oil Cartels, single-handedly drove gas prices pretty high in 2008, and that's why we desperately needed to elect Barack Obama. But Bush has been gone for more than two years now, and gas is higher than ever. How could this be?

Change or Be Changed
George was 53 when he had his first attack. He'd smoked for almost 40 years, was badly overweight, had an extremely high fat diet, and handled stress poorly. This warning shocked him into joining a smoking-cessation program. George and his wife also learned about healthy eating and improved their diets. Within a few months he'd lost his huge stomach, was very cheerful, and full of new energy. He was a changed man.
