Prospects Are Like Children
When telling stories about our son, I usually write in the context of Salespeople are Like Children. However, with this article, I'm writing in the context of Prospects are Like Children. When prospects want something badly enough, they can become quite resourceful. Think about what you've been willing to do when you wanted something - really badly - that you couldn't afford.
The creativity/business conundrum
The concept of creativity is an abstract one, at best. The dictionary tells you that when you ask for creativity, you can expect to see “the ability to use the imagination to develop new and original ideas or things, especially in an artistic context.” This is all well and good if you’re in the market for something astonishing to frame and hang on your wall, but in the context of business design it falls somewhat short of adequate.
The Universe is Calling - Will You Heed the Call?
"The soul is like a wild animal -- tough, resilient, savvy, self-sufficient, and yet exceedingly shy." Parker J. Palmer from Let Your Life Speak: Listening for the Voice of Vocation In our last issue I made a distinction between one's life purpose and a calling or vocation.

Seeing the World as We Are
We find what we focus upon. Whether I think my world is full of richness and opportunity, or garbage and despair - I am right. It's exactly like that - because that's my point of focus. By focusing there, I turn my expectations into reality. My focus is intertwined with the context of my life.
High- and Low-Context Cultures and Power Distances
Literature provides argument that cross-cultural communication is a complex matter. Edward Hall argued much of the human communication is non-verbal and always follows cultural and contextual patterns (Katz, 2006).
