Building a Foundation for a Stronger Company: Hope, Unity and Purpose
| |
| Hope, Unity and Purpose. These are the foundational words that the future generations of corporate leaders are using to build better people, better products, better brands and better businesses in a changing world. Many companies like SHARP, GE, Whirlpool, OwensCorning and Shaw Industries are developing “eco and green” products that enable customers to achieve their goals toward sustainability and individual responsibility to reduce their footprint on the earth. These companies are the foundation by which a new economy is being formed, one that is more robust and transparent that its predecessor; and one that is responsive to the needs of a global society. |

A Minute A Day…
| |
| It’s that time of year again - time to set our goals. For some reason we all think that January is the time to start fresh, to once and for all be the things we want to be and achieve all the things we want to have. We make our New Year’s resolutions, we promise to do things better, to turn over a new leaf. The winter air carries countless promises of losing weight, making money and being better friends/parents/spouses. It all sounds so good. So why are we so bad at making it happen? Let’s face it- by the end of January most of us have already abandoned our goals as mere pipe dreams and we shrug them off with a mental note to do better next year. |

Concluding Remarks: Enhancing Africa’s Trade: From Marginalization to an Export-Led Approach to Development
| |
| In the 19th and 20th centuries, trade has by and large been an engine of economic growth
for the global economy. It has also acted as an engine of growth for particular national
economies -- in the 19th century, Canada and Australia and in the 20th century, Japan. In
recent years, trade has acted as an engine of growth for the newly industrializing countries
of Southeast Asia, the so-called "Gang of Four", namely, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong,
and Singapore. |

Which Industries hold most promise in 2009
| |
| The January issue of Entrepreneur Magazine is out on the news stands and for those who have never read the magazine, January issue is dedicated to the Franchise industry. In this issue, there is an article (see link on my web site under News and Articles) that talks about the Magazine's predictions for Franchise Industries that hold the most promise for growth and stability in 2009. Interestingly enough, I wrote a blog about the very same topic in October of 08 (See blog titled: "Businesses that are still making money in this economy").

There have also been plenty of talk about how Franchise ow |

NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS IN SEPTEMBER
| |
| Forget about New Years Resolutions in January, they don’t work! You’re wasting your time! September is the best time to set New Year’s Resolutions.
Crazy idea, perhaps you disagree? Then answer this question; “why is it that most people who make them and seem quite serious about it, never really follow through and keep them?” A very good question don’t you think. I have addressed this issue before but on both occasions it was in January. Maybe now is a better time to take a different tact and initiate some thought, discussion and/or action around the idea. |

| |
| It is May and most of us are back into the full swing of living our life and running our businesses. In January we explored New Year’s resolutions as a means of setting personal and business goals.
If you are like most people, then you'll have a limited window of opportunity during the first few days of January to harness your motivation. After that, most people forget their resolutions completely.
