Branding: The Competitive Edge in a “Flattening World”
If you own or work in a mid-sized company, you know only too well what author Thomas Friedman is talking about in his book entitled “The World Is Flat.” You know the competitive landscape no longer has a horizon. You can no longer enjoy the “friendly competition” of similar-sized or like-minded firms competing with you regionally or nationally. In fact, many mid-sized companies dominated domestic markets simply because global competitors couldn’t get here. But technology has hit full stride. While five years ago, global competition may have seemed like a nagging fly that wouldn’t go away. Today, it is a reality.

The Emerging Strength of Emerging Markets
The rise of emerging markets appears to be the defining economic theme of the current decade – much as information technology was in the 1990s and Japan’s manufacturing prowess was in the 1980s. Both of those stories, however, ultimately ended in speculative excess and painful corrections. Will the same thing happen in the BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China) countries? Or is the emerging markets boom still in its infancy? If the answer to the latter question is yes, will the developed world turn to protectionism in an attempt to preserve its dominant position in the global economy?

A focus on interactive training can turn the "Knucklehearted" leader into someone that is magnetic and effective in influencing others.
Has the Global Recession Given You the Blues?
Did the financial markets need to go into a freefall to bring about progress? How have you been affected by the global economic meltdown? You are highly qualified, you are up to this point successful in your chosen field. But what does the future hold for you? It may well be time to rethink the path you are on.
Diversify Your Portfolio Outside the US
Asset allocation is the most influential factor on investment outcome. There have been growing signs that the worst of the global crisis might have passed.

Should Your Business Consider Franchising?
If you are serious about building a substantial business you should benchmark your progress against global industry peers not just your local competition. You will soon find that franchising offers the opportunity to build truly national and global businesses on a scale that your non-franchised competition just cannot match. Many of the worlds most successful companies such as Coca Cola, Shell, Toyota, BP, Ford, Pepsi, General Motors and of course KFC and McDonald's have built domestic and global brands using franchising as a management and marketing tool far outstripping the enterprise value of their non-franchised counterparts. A franchise network spanning national (and potentially international) markets offers better diversification and insulation from localised economic or competitive forces and early access to high-growth markets.
