In Summary...
I've been working on various forms of my Master Presentation, pretty much fulltime, for the last couple of weeks. A Post yesterday started a rather vigorous discussion about success "rules" that withstand the test of time. Virtually nothing—you, me, the corporation, the nation—withstands the test of time. And one of the principal reasons is hardening of the philosophical arteries—increasingly rigid interpretations of yesterday's "success" rules.

Six Characteristics of Leaders
A friend invited me to hear Rudolph Guiliani, the former mayor of New York City, speak at a local college. The list below captures what he spoke about. Guiliani told us that after September 11th he had to make many decisions very quickly. He would make 4 or 5 and then close his eyes and pray, "Please make this right." The first characteristic "Strong Beliefs" speaks to that as does my song title above.

Referral Truth or Delusion
I am currently working on a new book idea with two business associates, Mike Macedonio and Mike Garrison (we call them Mike2), of the Referral Institute. The thought came to us that many business people have a perception about word-of-mouth marketing that isn’t based on reality. It’s a delusion!

How Am I Doing?
“How am I doing?” was a question former New York City mayor Ed Koch often asked his constituents. In an effort to make sure he was meeting their needs, he surveyed their opinions constantly. Not a bad idea since it not only gave him valuable feedback to consider but also showed everyone that he was open to getting their honest opinions so he can improve his performance. Do you do this with your customers? Chances are that you don’t, or perhaps you do it in a somewhat ineffective manner.

The Dreaded Sales Phone Call
My mobile phone rang at 5pm last night. I looked at the number and didn’t recognise it but still answered it. “Hi it’s XXXX on behalf of Mike Filsaime. It’s your lucky day” “Why is it my lucky day?” “Well, Mike Filsaime wants to work with you” “Am I supposed to be impressed with that? Who the heck is Mike Filsaime? Never heard of him. Is he a spiritual leader?” Of course, I’ve heard of Mike but I’ve been on the end of these types of phone calls before, so I thought I would play with the guy.

Anyone Who Sells Needs Mike Dillard's Training
A common misnomer about Mike Dillard's training is that he/it only works for the network marketing or M.L.M industries. The truth is that anyone who sells a product or service WILL benefit from Mike Dillard. Yes, the training he offers specifically targets home business owners; but that's because there are over 75,000,000 of them worldwide. That's a pretty nice target market!

Executive Leaders: Hire for Attitude
One of the senior executives in a recent Total Leadership Connections program was downsized and "upsized" all within six weeks .The group went through the lows and eventual highs with him, it was quite a ride. He is in the process of moving his family to a small town in the Midwest from a large city in the South. As he tells, it, let's call him Mike, as Mike tells it, when you have prepared for change you can sleep at night.

Leadership Insight: Stump the Dummy
A game for the entire organization to play. And many do play it regularly. Stump the Dummy goes something like this: “How are you doing with that Smith file” says a senior level manager to a mid level manager. Or the company president asks a unit executive “where are we at with the remodeling of the meeting rooms?” Or the mayor asks a department head about the pothole on main street.

How Wordpress Can Torture and Defeat the Entrepreneur
