Feeling Lonely At The Top? It May Be Time For An Executive Business Coach!
Have you heard or ever spoken the words, “It is lonely at the top!”? This was a much used phrase in an organization I worked with some years ago. And it really is true! Many executives and top business leaders experience that feeling and many executives arriving in a new company and/or position will often fail.

Each of those failures could be addressed if the executives had the benefit of an executive business coach with thirteen (13) major characteristics that define a good executive business coach.

How does the complexity theory apply to business? (A Brief Dialogue)
Member Question: Has anyone applied complexity theory to business in a practical way? Asheville, U.S. My Response: The chaos theory and butterfly effect are interesting concepts in terms of the “complexity” of business. Over a number of years and through funding from the Government of Canada’s Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) Program I developed a theory called strand commonality. In the area of supply chain practice for example (although the term “chain” is a misnomer in that it implies a sequential architecture instead of the synchronized architecture that represents the dynamic characteristics of different stakeholders within the real-world), one seeks to understand the unique operating attributes of individual stakeholders using an agent-based model.

The Future of Sales
For centuries, the sales model has been focused on placing a solution. Given the complexity of business these days, having the right solution to manage a ‘need’ is not enough to help buyers choose your solution. Buyers live in a very complex world now. With global stakeholders, economic downturns, enlarged decision teams, and an almost limitless number of options – all available at the drop of a hat – competition is far more complex than being addressed by us having a good solution and giving great service. And as a result, we’re having greater difficulty closing sales. We’d like to think it’s ‘the economy, stupid.’ But in reality, the problem is more complex.

The Question of Trust -- How much business is done without it? None!
Before any business activity will commence, there must be an acceptable level of Trust in the outcome. No Trust means no progress -- No exceptions! Trust is dissected into two distinct components -- Character and Competence. People in all facets of life assess the trustworthiness of themselves , and the business they represent, by their intentions, but they assess the trustworthiness of others by their actions, and even more harshly, by their results. All businesses need to refine their ability to appropriately communicate the results they have achieved for all stakeholders. It is vital they are seen to take responsibility for their results -- not their intentions, and not just their actions. Taking responsibility for results will build trust with stakeholders -- even if the results were not what was planned or hoped for.
