Some people are born with a "take charge" attitude, others develop it over time. But all entrepreneurs, natural born or developed, instinctively choose a solutions based approach to problem solving.

Why is Branding So Simple for the Obnoxious
When it comes to memorability, the vulgar, the annoying, the irritating and the obnoxious individuals have it nailed. Howard Stern, Roseanne Arnold, Dennis Rodman. They all push the limits of what most of us consider social graces in some form or another, and yet they are famous for it. Most even make their living at it to some degree. Their personal brands are obvious and unfaltering in the face of criticism and they laugh all the way to the bank.
Change Is Here To Stay Thoughts From A Change Agent
"The trouble with the future is that it usually arrives before we're ready for it." Arnold H. Glasow Whenever someone refers to me as a "Change Agent," I accept it as a real compliment because that is a very accurate description of what I am. Since change is here to stay, I wanted to share some thoughts about change and some strategies on dealing with change. Change in the workplace and in our lives is inevitable. The way most people deal with change can vary from trying to ignore it; getting angry; wishful thinking and/or running away. A very positive way to deal with change is to look at change as a spawning ground for new opportunities for the business or organization.

The Power of Ambition
Probably like many of you, recently I found myself drawn to yet another Horatio Alger story; this time it´s the remarkable story of Arnold Schwarzenegger. Put aside for the moment his politics, whether you happen to agree with them or not. I would ask you also to put aside for the moment, and I do not ask this lightly, his highly questionable attitudes towards women. But for the purposes of becoming better sales people, it is worth reflecting on some of the attributes that have led Arnold Schwarzenegger to a successful career.

You can choose the kind of relationship
you have with anyone, even people you must work with for only a few minutes. Tom Peters writes of a losing his luggage recently and how the following lesson he learned from former Texas governor Ann Richards helped him choose the kind of relationship that produced both the best results and more joy in life:

Jacob Zuma, Inflation Denialist?
The queues in Zimbabwe, that shopper's paradise, were extra long this Christmas. Ordinary people were withdrawing their maximum daily allowance of Z$ 50 million while business owners were shunted to the back. Their allowance is a substantially more generous Z$ 750 million and Zimbabwe Reserve Bank Governor, Gideon Gono, said that they could wait.
SWaM: A Transformation in Mindset from an Adjunct Undertaking to an Economic Necessity (Report on Virginia Forum 2008)
“On August 10, 2006 Governor Timothy Kaine signed Executive Order No. 33 (2006) focusing on enhancing business opportunities for small, women-and-minority-owned (“SwaM”) businesses.
Marketing Secret: Be a Name Dropper
What's in a name? Could be millions. If you were a movie producer and you wanted a "name" to help you reap millions - you would pay $10 to $20 million for Bruce Willis, Julia Roberts, Jim Carrey or Arnold (when he returns to Hollywood...he said he'd be back).
Yearning For Integrity
Remember Blogojevitch? Do you wonder if he ever got a haircut? How about Eliot Spitzer? And then there is Governor Mark Sanford. Go really far back to then President of the United States William Clinton and his shenanigans in the oval office with intern Monica. And now Tiger - that clean-cut guy who we have all watched grow up with a golf club always near at hand. This is an important time to compare and contrast the rich and famous and ask ourselves if they are really so different from the rest of us. I think not! I think that the self serving, the narcissistic, the "because they can" crowd is getting slammed fast and hard right now because we are no longer willing to look the other way. And, since this is a human dilemma, we all have parts of them in us!
