The 18 Disciplines of Selling: Part 1: Rules
Not everyone considers themselves a salesperson. But like it or not we are. In fact if you think about it, everyone sells whether they want to admit it or not. It still surprises me when I hear people still turn up their nose or be fearful when I tell them they are sales people. "Oh I could never be a salesperson!" "I don't want to be a salesperson!" If you've ever sold an idea to your kids or a teacher, you've sold something. If you've ever asked for a raise, you've sold something. I believe are the 18 Disciplines of Selling that you must master on a daily basis in order to be a consistent and highly compensated sales producer, whatever you are selling. In this series we'll cover the 18 Disciplines of selling, but in this first installment, we'll talk about the RULES!

The 18 Disciplines of Selling: Part 2
The 18 Disciplines of Selling began with the Rules to understand before you can ever excell as a salesperson of anything. In Part 2 we examine the first three building block disciplines that you must master to excell. Selling is much more than some tricky and slick closes or opening lines or "silver bullet" techniques. It is imperative to excel at the "art" of selling to master the other little things the nuances in order to really win. Whether you're selling an idea; asking for a raise; selling your product or service that your business offers, whatever you're selling you MUST master these 18 Disciplines in order to survive and thrive. We now begin the journey with Disciplines #1 through #3.

The 18 Disciplines of Selling: Part 3
The 18 Disciplines of Selling as a title are a little misleading. These key silver bullets are not just for those who make a profession of selling. They're for any and all who are in business large or small; an entrepreneur or executive or sole proprietor. If you're in business today, you're selling! You're constantly selling and unfortunately many people who are entering business at any level have little to no sales training. So whatever level you're at you'll need the 18 Disciplines as a basic and foundational checklist to master. We started with the rules in our first edition. In Part 2 we discussed the true basics and now in Part 3 we begin to bring them together with the hard core strategies that will be a success foundation for life!

The 18 Disciplines of Selling: Part 5: The Finale
This is it, the final elements of the 18 Disciplines of selling. Our four previous articles covered what I believe to be the fundamental building blocks of sales success that a businessperson must understand in order to just survive let alone thrive in todays markets. The Disciplines have been to many very simple and they are but that is where the challenge is. How tough are you? How disciplined are you to do what must be done, what you know needs to be done every day, whether you want to or not? Here are the last of the 18 disciplines. In our last article we covered the skills necessary in selling with Disciplines #7 through #11. In Part 5we're going to discuss disciplines #12 through #18

Performance Management
A relatively new management buzz phrase, performance management, has been gaining popularity recently. Management, particularly sales management, has always been about getting results so clearly whatever sales managers have been doing prior to the emergence of this new concept should also be known as performance management. The article explains the tasks required to maximize performance.

Systems Thinking in Human Resource Management
The failure to understand the complex interrelationships between the different elements of human resource management inadvertently creates organizational and interpersonal tensions that detract from an organization achieving its goals. A Systems Approach considers the whole project, the interrelationships among the various components and allows for the effective management of the various disciplines involved to achieve this integration.
