Lesson #1: Take Your Market Research to the Streets
Morita might have been the Chairman of Sony Corporation, but that did not mean he stayed cooped up in his office all day long, removed from the daily action. He enjoyed tinkering with electronics as a child, and nothing had changed in the years since. Morita took a constant and keen interest in the research and development branch of his company. In fact, in the early years, there was one product that particularly caught Morita’s attention.

Lesson #5: Take Time Off to Tune Up

Is Your Underperforming Employee Incompetent or is it AADD
AADD - Adult Attention Deficit Disorder is often difficult to understand. This is especially true when it exists in one of your key employees. It may often be disguised as peer relationship problems, moodiness, forgetfulness, lack of commitment, complacency and even substance abuse. Now for the disclaimer --- I am not a medical doctor nor do I profess to be an expert on AADD. The objective of this article is simply to bring to your attention that erratic, unusual and unacceptable behavior can sometimes be related to a medical condition that often is overlooked. This condition is called Adult Attention Deficit Disorder. If this article suggests any familiarity of circumstance with any of your employees then seek a professional medical opinion.

On Show
Recently I have been watching the rerun of “Life at 1” on ABC TV in readiness for the “Life at 3” series as I am fascinated by all things behavioural and developmental. The series focuses on children and their development from age one and beyond, similar in concept to the Seven Up series. However this series cannot be complete without the children’s parents and siblings being involved. I am interested in the series because I am a parent, however it is amazing what you can learn about other areas of your life from seemingly unrelated sources. This is such a case.

How Your Negative Past Can Be an Asset According to Erica Combs
Many people feel beaten up by what has happened to them in their past. Many are down on themselves because of decisions they have made in the past that have not worked out. They think poorly of themselves because of the negative baggage they carry around. It shouldn’t be this way. We weren’t placed on the earth to be miserable, to think poorly of ourselves. Erica Combs said something about this that has really stuck with me. I think it’s a powerful statement. The purpose of this article is to try to convey that message to you.

Many individuals spend their time on several different mediums for their online marketing efforts and one of these is article marketing.

Recently I have been watching the rerun of "Life at 1" on ABC TV (Australia) in readiness for the "Life at 3" series as I am fascinated by all things behavioural and developmental. The series focuses on children and their development from age one and beyond, similar in concept to the BBC's Seven Up series. However this series cannot be complete without the children's parents and siblings being involved. One of the fathers being tested in the series had recently changed jobs from being a professional sales person in a luxury car showroom to working in the family market garden business growing vegetable. His ‘stress' levels actual and emotional were significantly lower after having changed jobs which also affected his child's stress levels for the better.

I Know How to Do This!
I thought I had pre-paved a happy-go-lucky attitude towards being a mother. I had intended to let my son, Lucky, follow his own path and my job was to get out of the way. Ahem! Well, my little controller side came out in full force in ways I had not expected. I started out by trusting that Lucky would find his own sleeping pattern. That didn't work. So, when he was four months old I swung to the opposite side of the issue. My child would forever more be on a sleeping schedule. This potentially could've worked if I were more relaxed about it. But I wasn't. I was in huge conflict with my mate, Steve, about my schedule and method of putting Lucky to bed.

Results are in of a new study...
As the head of a large corporation you probably understand that there is a definite need for a corporate rewards program. You realize that although the promise of a paycheck and the possibility of health care might be enough to convince an employee to show up every day for work the same paycheck often isn’t enough for that same employee to put his best foot foreword and dedicate themselves, heart and soul to making the company all it can be. This type of employee does little to increase sale figures or production output, they do not bring out the best in customer service, they aren’t normally good team players, and they certainly don’t make the work place an inviting place which in turn doesn’t inspire perfect attendance.

Bad Leadership
Honestly, looking back over my life, I have had periods of time where I followed bad leadership. I complained inwardly; I may have even voiced my opposition to others, but I continued to follow and for the most part did nothing to change the situation until I left the organization. In the meantime, not only did the organization suffer, but it wasted my time and energy and ultimately kept me from pursuing my own dreams and goals or from realizing my own potential as a leader.

Working Capital Management: How to keep your Cash Flow Strong
Strategic working capital management is integral to a company's survival and it is a concept that many companies fail to grasp correctly. There is a long-standing distinction between assets (whatever puts money into your pocket) and liabilities (whatever removes money from your pocket). The conventional thinking about them is that both of them are predominantly long-term, so they are often projected in long-term periods of three or five years.
