Cash for Clunkers: Stimulus or Boondoggle
| |
| Cash for Clunkers, the federal program that pays $4,500 toward the purchase of certain new cars, is tremendously popular. But as with all government handouts, for everyone who benefits, someone else pays a price. Only a reasoned examination of all of the costs together with the benefits can the balance between the two be evaluated. This article does just that. |

Getting New Managers to Deliver Quickly
| |
| As companies start transforming their businesses in response to changing market conditions, they need their people to deliver. Every CEO faces two main people challenges. The CEO's first challenge is to develop current high performers into good leaders who can put in place a multiplier effect on their talents. The CEO's second challenge is to induct new talented people and get them off the block quickly. Organizations that have a strong process culture can get their new manager's off the block quickly and with less pain. |

V. Material Benefits of Microfinancing
| |
| Microfinance initiatives can play an effective role in addressing material poverty, the
physical deprivation of goods, services, and the income to attain them. MFIs can help people
become more economically secure. This, in turn, has a multiplier effect on people's standard of
living, enhancing basic household welfare, such as food security, nutrition, shelter, sanitation,
health and education services. MFIs can help prevent and extricate people from debt.
Oftentimes, they liberate low-income households from moneylenders with outrageous interest
rates that often reach 100% annually. Savings and credit services help people start or improve
their own small businesses, providing income generation and employment for themselves and
their families. |

IV. Introduction - MICROFINANCE IN AFRICA: THE MODEL
| |
| The last twenty years have seen significant advances in understanding and providing
financial services to better advance development and eradicate poverty. This includes providing
the financial means to save, access credit, and start small businesses, with the potential to
enhance community development, as well as local and national policy making. When properly
harnessed and supported, microfinance can scale-up beyond the micro-level as a sustainable part
of the process of economic empowerment by which the poor can lift themselves from poverty. |

Taking Charge of Your Life
| |
| How do you live your life? At cause or at effect? It is important to be aware of this distinction. It is the rare individual who always lives his or her life at cause; however, far too many of us live a large portion of our lives at effect - responding to the whims, desires or emotional states of others. |

| The Vacuum Effect!

Anyway this month I had a couple of instances of what I will call “The Vacuum Effect”.

Career Growing Pains: Some Grow UP and Some Grow Old
| |
| Transitioning from where you are to where you need to go isn’t easy; it requires you to become connected to the cause and effect of your actions, and to own them by taking responsibility. To engage in something successfully, especially in a competition or fight, you must have the ability to take a punch and respond with a counter punch (meaningful reaction)-and remain standing. You aren’t engaged if you just take the punches, without bothering to move, change or get out the way.
To think that you are engaged when you are making little effort while expecting big results, finding excuses for staying where you are, blaming someone else, or just being blind to the lesson of cause and effect-only makes you bitter instead of better.
