Leaders Are Communicators
There is an old saying, “That which can be misunderstood will be misunderstood.” This resolution, passed by the Board of Councilmen in Canton, Mississippi, in the mid-1800s brings that into focus. “Number one: Resolved by this Council that we build a new jail. Number two: Resolved that the new jail be built out of the materials of the old jail. Resolved that the old jail be used until the new jail is finished.”
Simple Formula for Success
Throughout my 25 years of experience I have found that success comes in many ways but through primarily one inspiration. Core Desires. Despite the fact that there are a plethora of business and self-help books and resources available for individuals looking for answers on how to create or maintain a thriving, fuller life I have found that heartfelt desires are the only factor which accurately determine an individual’s success.

Achieving Peak Performance
Athletes are trained to reach peak performance through a regime of coaching and mentoring. If they fail to reach world-class performance levels, they fail to achieve significant rewards.

Taking Control of the Fear
“Successful salespeople know what to do. And they do what losers refuse to do.” Why is it that in any sales organization, a small number of sales people out sell the rest by a substantial majority? The average sales person does not do what the peak performer is willing to do. It’s all about action!

Career Success and Problem Solving
Outstanding performance is very important to career and life success. It's at the heart of the five success elements. No one can be successful without being a highly competent, outstanding performer. The incompetents and poor performers get identified and asked to leave or are placed in marginal positions pretty quickly. You have to identify the problems and obstacles to becoming an outstanding performer that you face before you can take action and deal with them. Don't call your problems "opportunities" or your obstacles "challenges". Call them what they are, and then get on with fixing your problems and overcoming your obstacles.
How Hollywood Can Make You an Interview Star

What the High Performer DOESN’T Know!
In tough economic times, like we are experiencing right now, many people are still afraid of losing their job. For employers who must cut back, they have to choose who stays and who goes. For some companies, the deciding factor is based on performance - top performers get to stay. Right now could be the perfect time to learn how High Performers are able to produce better results. Interestingly however, it's what the High Performer doesn't know that just might provide the greatest insight. Whether you are a job seeker or an employer, understanding how the high performer is able to achieve better results while others are not is knowledge everyone should have.
How Do You Know If YOU Are A High Performer?
In order to answer this question and know if we are a high performer, we must first define the term 'High Performer'. The simple definition is a person who achieves the best results. It's not just someone who works hard. More specifically it is someone who is able to produce desired results and achieve more of their goals. When we compare high achievers to those who fall short, a discernible difference exists. But this comparison suggests that everyone falls into either one group or the other - achiever or non-achiever. It's not quite that black and white.
Make sure your football coaching mentally prepares you for the second half!
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is the process of creating models of excellence. Modelling is the complex activity of capturing in a learnable transferable code the differences that make a difference between an excellent performer and an average performer, between an excellent athlete and an average one, a person who is motivated to get the best out of themselves in training and one who is not. NLP, then, is the process of identifying, coding and transferring precisely those differences in a learnable form to the interested participants and companies to allow significant upgrading of their performance to levels of excellence. Results in sport depend crucially on your ability to use your mind effectively. Many elite athletes say the mental aspects of sport make the difference between being a champion or not.

How can we learn from our best sales performers?
How do we get the rest of our sales team learning from our top performers? Should we get our top sales performer in front of our sales team to teach them how to be more effective? Well that all depends… * How well does that top sales performer understand how and why they sell well? * Can they articulate what they do in a step by step process? * Can they teach to the others in a simple and meaningful way? * Do they want to teach others?
