Business Book of the Year?
| |
| The FT has out its "long list" of nominees for the FT/Goldman Sachs Business Book of the Year. The picks aren't too surprising (despite being forced to leave out the FT's own Gillian Tett's excellent Fool's Gold), with a cross-section of financial crises and management self-help books, leavened by one peak-oil text and a few internationalization works. |

You Know You Will Never Be Promoted When…
| |
| Gillian, one of the individuals I mentor, recently asked me about ‘getting promoted’.
She asked ‘What is the quickest and easiest way to get promoted?’
As an employee, we all want that promotion, don’t we?
Isn’t it our ultimate goal to rise above the ranks and be somebody in the office? Great pay and great respect.

Five Steps to Get out Of Diet Prison
| |
| Every now and again you come across someone who seems to be speaking to you in a language you understand, maybe reminding you of some forgotten truth you’ve buried deep inside. Gillian Hood-Gabrielson is one of those people, awakening your inner connection to your natural appetite, that intuitive knowing that has been buried underneath all the silly diet rules and conditioning of your life to date. You know the ones, ‘eat everything on your plate or you can’t have dessert’, ‘think of all the starving children in (insert the country here)’ or maybe rules like no carbs after lunch time, never let yourself get hungry, and on it goes.

Working for working mums
| |
| What do you do when your children are off sick or there are medical checks, clinics to attend, inset days or other myriad child-related appointments to keep? There are only so many days you can take off work, as many mothers have discovered. Flexible working can seem the only solution for mothers who want or need to work, but how can you find it? Enter Gillian Nissim. She is a working mum of two boys and found herself and many of her friends in a similar position, needing flexible yet challenging work, but not being able to find it. She set about doing something about it. |

Square Peg Round Hole
| |
| In his wonderful book The Element, Sir Ken Robinson tells a story that I’m sure many people can relate to. In it, a young girl named Gillian is having trouble concentrating at school. The school – suspecting a learning disability – asks her mother to take 8-year-old Gillian to see a psychiatrist for evaluation. After hearing from the girl’s mother how the girl is always disturbing her classmates, her homework is sloppy and always late – the doctor asks to speak with Gillian alone. Before escorting the mother outside for a private conference, the doctor turns on the radio in the room to occupy Gillian.
As soon as the music began to play, the girl was on her feet. From outside the room, Gillian’s mother observed for a few minutes as she moved beautifully to the music, dancing around the room, lost in a childlike trance. |

Herding Cats and Social Media ROI
| |
| I was recently part of a social media panel at the first Internet Marketing Conference in Calgary. First of all, respect must be given where it’s due… it was an absolute pleasure to share the floor with some of the brightest minds around including Gillian Muessig, Alli Marshall, Patrick Schwerdtfeger and Doug Lacombe.
One of the topics we discussed was ROI of social media and throughout the conversation, there were a few common threads I will try to distill into a few key points below.
Who are you trying to reach?
This should be the first question to ask yourself. Before you even consider creating yet another DOA twitter account or a Facebook fan page, get to REALLY know your customers. Investing time and effort here early will save you many headaches and barrels of cash later. |
