Just like a jungle, survival in the SERPs (search engine results pages) can be tricky. The uncertainty of search engine algorithms, the survival based impulses that by default comprise 97% of the web pages at large (like playing capture the flag) or a boobie-trap where one step on the wrong twig and you could be consumed, penalized, suppressed, catapulted or removed from the top 10 based on your SEO survival skills, your resourcefulness or your experience in the jungle.
A Stimulus for a Better World: Give them Sustainability without Compromise
Sustainability sounded good when money was flowing in. But now that the economy is broken, business sustainability is taking a back seat to business survival.

Mental Toughness=Profits and Success Today
All sizes and shapes of companies are focused on survival in what Tom Peters calls our “Looney” times today. And, I have focused a lot on survival strategies with my clients. However, strategies, tactics, methods, and techniques are not the total answer. My thinking about survival in our recession has been profoundly influenced by a book called "Deep Survival: Who Lives, Who Dies, and Why" by Laurence Gonzales. It's a book that chronicles incredible stories of survival in plane crashes, getting lost at sea, surviving in Arctic temperatures for weeks, etc. And one theme comes through like a beacon. It is not the physically strong that survive. Surviving [and profiting from this recession] all starts with a single decision.

Are You Living In Stress City?
Most people think stress is a killer. It can be, but only in excessive amounts. You may know someone who says they "thrive on stress," and though your friend may just be an adrenaline junkie, the same could be said of the human race. Stress gets our attention, and switches on the "fight or flight" instincts that were key to our ancestors' survival....
Charisma - the Latest Corporate Lever for Double-Digit Growth
