Are You Rude on The Internet? It Can Hurt Your Business.
I don’t know about you but I’ve noticed a disturbing trend occurring both on the Internet and in real life. The trend is rudeness.

Dr. PM Forni wrote a book called, “Choosing Civility: The Twenty-Five Rules of Considerate Conduct” and although I have not read it yet, you bet it will be in my next book store purchase.

What culture do you develop?
As a leader have you considered the culture you want in your organization? A culture of an organization is determined by the behaviors and perceptions of your people. Consider, how your people treat your customers, how they treat each other, what their perception of your suppliers is, or more importantly, what do they think of the leaders and managers? You have heard the phrase 'walk-the-talk', people are watching you and based on your behavior they develop perceptions and will act accordingly. As an observer of an organization, it is very easy to identify the culture, one visit to a store, one interaction with the sales team, or customer service department will provide you with an indication of what is happening in that organization.
Who Is Likely To Succeed In Business?

I am surprised regularly by people about to start a business. When we sit down to discuss their plans, I find out they don't have any!

We will see how it goes!
How many people does it take to change a light bulb
I was told about a recent article in the Weekend Australian Magazine. The article looked at a study by the University of Chicago. that found that if we excluded all animal based foods, including dairy and eggs, from our diet, that change would benefit the environment more than buying an eco-friendly car. Apparently 23% of a typical Australian diet comes from animal sources and so generates almost 1.5 tonnes more greenhouse gases per person per year than a vegan diet of the same calories.

LaserSharp Networking
Did you know that the energy put out by a normal light bulb is equal to the energy put out by a laser beam? A laser has a very tight beam and is very strong and concentrated. A light bulb, on the other hand, releases light in many directions, so the light is comparably weak and diffuse. The difference between the two allows the laser, with focused energy, to have the power to do very fine and delicate surgery, artistic etching and play the broad, full sounds of an orchestral overture. Does that sound like the kind of precision you want from your networking activities? I've found that there are three ways to bring your networking efforts into laser-sharp focus to make it an even more powerful way to build your business:

Finally it appears as though we're looking out of the tunnel. We can see light -- a lot of optimistic light -- rather than extended gloom.

Fortunately they aren't in the market areas we focus on. Where do we see things improving and how quickly? Take a look for yourself.

Mice and Men
Recently, there was a university study done using white mice as the subjects for a psychological experiment. The mice were put into a cage with a red light and a green light on opposite sides of the space. The experiment was designed in such a way that when a bell rang, a mouse could rush to the red light or the green light to receive a treat. The treat was only presented for a few seconds, so that if the mouse guessed wrong and went to the green light when the treat was being presented at the red light, the mouse didn't have enough time to rush across the cage and get the treat.
