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. Communication is a challenge. And it is an opportunity for very positive impressions if one works at doing it effectively.

The Coffee King: Howard Schultz is Born
“I wanted to be in charge of my own destiny,” says Howard Schultz. “It may be a weakness in me: I'm always wondering what I'll do next. Enough is never enough.” Schultz used this weakness to his advantage, taking the U.S. by storm with his vision of a coffee shop the likes of which the country had never seen before. Today, as a so-called ‘third home’, Starbucks has revolutionized not only the coffee industry but also society at large.

Howard Schultz Quotes
Howard Schultz Quotes


Say the name Starbucks and the first thing most people will think of is coffee. However, many industry analysts argued it was that very fact that was one of the major obstacles standing in the way of CEO Howard Schultz’s dream to create the most recognizable and respected brand in the world. How was Schultz ever going to be able to capture the coffee market in China, a country of tea drinkers, or Japan or Taiwan, they asked?

Howard Schultz Bio
The Howard Schultz bio is not necessarily a story of innovation. After all, Howard Schultz was not the first person to ever think of establishing gourmet coffee bars, where coffee was served in cups, not beans, and people could come to meet and relax; he had gotten the idea after visiting Milan, Italy, on a family vacation. Nor was Howard Schultz the original founder of Starbucks; he built upon the success of three men and their coffeehouse in Seattle, Washington.

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.

The Knockout Entrepreneur: The Early Years of George Foreman
He went from being a lean, mean fighting machine to selling lean, mean grilling machines. At 6 foot 3.5 inches, George Foreman stands tall as a leader in the boxing world and business world alike. And, in both, he has risen to unprecedented heights of success. Considered one of the top ten greatest boxers of all time, and having sold almost 100 million George Foreman Grills, this is one entrepreneur who refuses to get knocked down.

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. Beyond what you do for a living, you will receive tremendous benefits if you enjoy the people you work with.

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.
