The Myth of the Management Myth
On a plane yesterday I read a truly awful new article in The Atlantic. Called "The Management Myth", it is nominally about how management theory is a waste, MBAs are dangerous, philosophy rules, and consultants are nasties.
Reading People
Are you able to effectively read people and make proper adjustments in your approach and selling style? Do you understand what this means, have you experienced the difference it can make in your selling results and do you have the skills to do so?
Expertise
As consultant and trainer I always teach the value of being an expert. There’s no doubt that as an expert it’s just as important to be an expert in not just product knowledge, but in your subject matter as well. This knowledge helps your confident in front of a customer or audience. It also gives you the ability to ask excellent and relevant questions. You can quote famous people and books to position yourself as an expert, but you can’t fake expertise very long.

Ethics Is Not A Place
It seems that Ethics is a growth industry. There are even advertisements in the newspapers for “professional ethicists”.
An Introduction to Value Science
An article of 1265 words explaining how you can create different outcomes by recognizing the thoughts that trigger your typical reaction – emotional or behavioral – and then learning to choose different and better thoughts to guide you.
Three-Step Dance to Success
The third step to total success is a commitment to make life better, easier, and richer for as many people as possible. I love Zig Ziglar's quote that, "You can have anything you want in life if you find a way to help enough other people get what they want in life." What a wonderful challenge!
Put Your Money Where Your Metrics Are
The author discusses how to Link Customer Experience to Employee Evaluation, Rewards & Recognition Within A Culture of Accountability.
Barrier to Growth Is Change Stressing You Out by W Vito Montone
Change is on my mind. It is everywhere inside our own businesses. I mean EVERYWHERE. I recently remembered that I want it that way. But... there are definitely times that I forget. How do I forget you ask? Simply, I let stress slip in. But that’s not change’s fault. Somehow change has acquired a bad rep. We try to keep things calm, even, familiar...stress-free that’s the ticket. It’s all change’s fault. Right?

Visionarys Disease and the CEO
We all know the value of vision. The Greek philosophers spoke about it. Former President George Bush recommended attention to "the vision thing." What happens when an organization's problem isn't a lack of vision but too much? What happens when the CEO's vision changes monthly, weekly, or even daily-driving his organization crazy? Welcome to Visionary's Disease. If you are consulting to someone who suffers from it, you are probably very frustrated.
How the Mind Works: Understanding Your Mental Software
The complexities of the mind have left thinkers, scholars and philosophers baffled for a millennia. For the past two hundred years the field of psychology has sought to understand why we are the way we are but reviled little as to how the mind works. The latest advances in psychology, cognitive science and neuro science have lead to new models and a whole new science of mind has emerged. We now know more than ever before about how the mind works. And when you know how the mind works, changing it becomes easy.
Life is a Mirror
Philosophers through the ages have taught us that individuals attract the same energy they put out to the universe. If you think negative thoughts, then negativity will come back to you. If your outlook is positive and upbeat, that is how the world will approach you. I am not a philosopher myself, but I subscribe to the simple wisdom that energy begets energy. I see applications for the theory especially helpful in the working environment. I have been having some discussions with students recently and would be interested in your comments in this forum. Some people are constantly feeling besieged with problems coming at them from other people, who they say have bad attitudes. My take is that if what you see coming at you is other people that are sour, it is really a good time to take a long hard look in the mirror.

Changing Attitudes
This paper will focus on something we often take for granted - our attitude. Yet numerous philosophers and authors down through the ages have proven that our attitude, more than any other single factor (money, beauty, health, possessions, relationships), determines the quality of our life. The miracle is that we are actually able to manage our attitude rather easily.

How to Use Affirmations
Affirmations are probably the easiest and most effective method – compared to the effort involved – known to influence the conscious mind. Many of the worlds most intelligent experts and philosophers have used, and are using this technique, which has been handed down over thousands of years, in various guises such as mantras and prayers.
