Nothing Lasts Forever
When we embrace change, we embrace our potential. We eagerly step into exciting new opportunities and challenges, stretch to learn new things, try new approaches and expand our horizons. With each change we get better, and better again.
Changing Your Life - Transition is Either Voluntary Or Involuntary
You may be changing careers, going back to school, or going back to an old familiar career that you've been away from for a while. Your transition may be voluntary or involuntary and either provides similar feelings of stress and uncertainty.

CONGRUENCE AND TENSION
Many years ago and much earlier in my career I was Manager of the Employee Assistance Program for the Province of Manitoba. Back in those early days I was confronted with a dilemma in assessing the nature of some presenting problems, which in the end was to change my approach and interest in the way I understood stress and the way in which I was to help support persons who were experiencing the symptoms of stress. "What do you suppose would be the consequences of not living your life according to what it is you value or not being able to fulfill your perceived needs?"

STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT OF STRESS
Many years ago and much earlier in my career I was Manager of the Employee Assistance Program for the Province of Manitoba. Back in those early days I was confronted with a dilemma in assessing the nature of some presenting problems, which in the end was to change my approach and interest in the way I understood stress and the way in which I was to help support persons who were experiencing the symptoms of stress for the next 35 years. When the cause of a stress symptoms jumps up and hits you in the face like a 2-by-4, (i.e. loss of a loved one) you know what you are dealing with and accordingly, can act to address it. But what if it relates to not living your life congruently with what it is you value, and/or not living your life according to your personality type and finally, perhaps not being able to meet your perceived needs?

Why Change is so Hard
We all know that change can be difficult for many people but did you ever wonder why that is exactly? And, did you ever wonder as a leader what you can do about that? Find out more here.

How to be happy
Happiness is not luck, it’s not chance, it is a decision and it’s in our own hands!

Will You Choose to "Wake Up!" to Your Life?
Choices...we all have them in life. Though sometimes our choices are really difficult to see and can be even harder to make, still, we do have them. The problem is we don't always remember this important fact. And who can blame us, really?

Job Loss: If You’re Fired What’s Next?
Job loss, just like any loss that you will experience, means going through the process of shock and denial, anger, depression, acceptance and – finally – growth. As they say, whenever one thing ends, something new begins. After a job loss, you will always have options: that's one of the most important things to remember.
Manage Salespeople One at a Time
Salespeople are a funny breed because selling is a crazy business. The good ones have quirks and idiosyncrasies that make them difficult to manage unless you know how to manage them one at a time. In fact, do you know what motivates each and every one of your salespeople? It's not just the money, although that may be high on the list. Most crave recognition, although no one will admit to it. Many just want to do a good job judged by their own standards. Some run hard for fear of loss (loss of visibility, loss of status, loss of income, even loss of employment). Learn their personal goals, so you know why they work.

Handling Loss – Five Steps To Help Yourself & Others
People often tell me that they don't know what to say when someone experiences a loss. I explain that often times the person experiencing the loss simply needs to talk. You don't need to say anything; just be there to listen and support the individual. However, most people are still uncomfortable with helping family members, friends, and colleagues cope with loss. This article provides information on understanding loss and tips to be in a better position to help yourself and others work through their own loss.

Nothing Standard About This New Category
A confusing name for decaffeinated regulation. So goodbye Cadbury, and now that we've all digested the threat of job cuts and the loss of independence of a great British brand, we can turn our attention to the real concern of Curly Wurly et al being renamed. Some of us of a certain age of course still rue the rebranding of Opal Fruits and fear that long-loved Cadbury brands will have their names changed to something that begs an exclamation mark after them like Starburst(!).
Succession Planning
Can organizations prepare for loss? You can never be fully prepared for a tragic loss, however a succession plan will go a long way in minimizing the effect of loss. The loss in this case was an untimely death, but many organizations today face the risk of losing a seasoned executive through age, retirement, and even hiring away by a competitor. It is therefore important to consider the issue of succession NOW rather than later.
Salespeople just want to make more sales. That's why Ace of Sales was created.
About a year ago we launched Ace of Sales 1.0 - instant success. Salespeople loved our customized emails that set them apart from the competition and the ability to send low cost custom greeting cards and postcards. They loved the ability to do all social media from the Ace of Sales home page. They loved the ability to import their outlook contacts. They loved more than 100 Jeffrey's video vignettes and mini-training tips to help make more sales. And they loved that it only cost $20.00 a month.

Data Loss - The Scariest Term in Business Today
In business, data loss refers to an unforeseen loss of data or information. There are several root causes for data loss, and although there have been many backup and recovery efforts made over the last few years, more often than not, data loss is permanent.

Business Author Published in new Book to Help Mourners Find Hope
The death of a loved one is one of the most stressful and painful experiences any human will experience. To support mourners through this intensely isolating life passage, "Open to Hope: Inspirational Stories of Healing after Loss" has been published, which includes two articles written by Patrick T Malone, co-author of the popular business book "Cracking the Code to Leadership" along with guidance, stories and validation from close to 100 other national experts in the area of grief and loss.
Navigating Change and Adversity
"Embrace change" is a useless platitude mouthed by managers or motivational speakers who have not thought through its full implications - or they are masochists who enjoy suffering. Changes that bring new opportunities or propel us forward are easy to embrace. But many changes look quite negative and are tough - if not impossible - to welcome. This list might include loss of a relationship, a loved one, health, job, money, and such.
