"Bottom-line" Culture vs. a Healthy One?
Since the mid-90's, research has shown that when people love their job and get great value out of the experience, productivity and profits are up, turn-over and burn-out are down. In fact, I recommend organizations consciously use fun as a cultural expectation, because it will increase employee and customer retention/relations, motivate individuals/teams, and ultimately improve overall productivity.

Hypothetical Hockey
With the cancellation of the 2005 National Hockey League season, we could only think about hockey as there was none available to watch. It was an opportunity to think about what might happen if we changed some of the rules and apply the example to organizations that are (to be kind) less than effective.
An Introduction to Trojan Horse Marketing
Let me introduce you to a marketing principle called Trojan Horse Marketing. The reality is, when people see a marketing message or a promotion, their walls go up further. Trojan horse marketing works in the real world. Why? Because even if your prospect has strong walls and fortresses, when they see your Trojan horse, they see it as a gift from heaven, and they bring that gift inside the barriers. That’s what Trojan Horse Marketing is about. It’s about how to position your marketing as a Trojan horse; as a gift; as a welcome distraction from life; as an answer from heaven.
Machine Gun Marketing
Ok, I am going to rant a bit over an honest mistake but in this day and age, I wonder what demographics this company is using? Several months ago, I started receiving a very high-end horse magazine. Suburbia me, I can't even remember the last time I was on a horse. In fairness, 15 years ago I did attend a horse show.

Leading the Horse to Water: strategies for managing motivation
You’ve heard the old saying, “You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink”. What causes one horse to step right up and drink deep and another decide to take a pass? Leaders often ask the same question when frustrated by failed attempts to motivate their people. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn’t.

A Philosophy To Live By
Wisdom goes back a long way and comes in the form of examples, illustrations, stories, cliches, parables, etc. One of the oldest bits of philosophy says that “for want of a nail a shoe was lost, for want of a shoe a horse was lost, for want of a horse a rider was lost, for want of a rider a leader was lost, for want of a leader a battle was lost, for want of a victory a war was lost, for want of a plan a nation was lost.”

The Knight Dismounted
The present and future of a former great world power. The knight stopped his horse and simply sat for a moment. He was a big man, handsome and slightly battered sitting on a beautiful and powerful war horse. Amidst creaks and groans of metal and leather, from his equally tired horse he dismounted and then simply stood there. His helmet under his right arm, the reins in his left hand. He simply stood still and quiet, leaning his head against his horse’s shoulder. They were both weary, drained and in need of a long term rest or at least a respite from the unsustainable grind they had maintained for so many years.
