How To Get Rid Of Your Big BUT
On your quest for success, communication is critical. Without high-quality communication with the people that you relate to on a daily basis, whether they are at your place of business or your social circle, you can not be successful. Those who communicate best are the ones that are the most successful. Poor communication affects the way others perceive, understand and react to you. When you are a person who uses the “BUT” in your conversations everyday, it acts just like a double-edged sword in that it can make you appear to others in one of these two ways.

Chaos and Communication
A recent worldwide survey revealed that there are 6,800 languages and dialects spoken globally today. While I am often amazed how inaccurate communications can get, when you consider the number of languages spoken, it is somewhat amazing that we communicate at all. It could be argued that most problems in human interaction arise from poor communication. Assuming that none of us set out to miscommunicate, it is important to explore why our best intentions to transfer knowledge, emotion, and details fall short. Remember, just because you're talking doesn't mean anyone's hearing. If they are hearing, it doesn't mean they're listening to you. Even if they are listening to you, it doesn't mean that they understand what you're saying.

What Part of Your Health Has the Biggest Impact On Your Quality Of Life
We all hear debates about the relevance of a healthy work life balance. What we are really calling out for is how we can improve our quality of life both at work and at home.But to address this we first need to understand what actually has the greatest impact to our quality of life. An Australian survey shows that a common ailment that we seldom seek professional help for has the biggest adverse influence on our quality of life...

Creating an Extraordinary Organization
If everyone would like to work in a thriving, enlivening and nurturing environment, why is it that almost no one loves being at work? Why is it that most of us simply acquiesce when confronted by the drudgery and suffering that, according to seemingly every statistical measure, characterizes life within many companies? Is this condition inevitable? Are we destined to an environment where the most we have to look forward to is Friday afternoon? Not at all. There are specific steps that can be taken to begin to reclaim some of the enthusiasm, some of the air of celebration and some of the fundamental respect for individual human dignity that is apparent within flourishing business organizations or on championship teams.

Why Can't We All Just Get Along
I have spent the better part of this year consulting with the Real Estate industry and I have had my eyes opened to the inherent problems of an untrained, inexperienced, unsupervised sales force let loose in the marketplace. Agents are independent contractors and left on their own to generate sales, find prospects, and close deals. Some are resale agents, others sell in new home communities. Usually during difficult times people bond and look to each other for strength and empathy, more like a team. What I have found is quite the contrary.

10 Commandments of Leadership-Communication
Communication is a tricky combination of art and science. In it’s basic form, communication is the flow of information between humans. The last part about being a human phenomenon is important to remember. Communication is a human connectivity that is critical to the leadership role because it enjoins people in a unique and personal way to the tasks and mission of an organization. It also relates directly to the personal nature of leadership and the connection point of why people will follow a leader. To have people to want to follow, the leader must communicate with them.
Hiring New Team Members
Quick hiring, convenient hiring or insider hiring rarely works. There is reverse proportion between the timing of the hire and the quality of the hire. The quicker the hiring decision, the more likely the decision will be a poor decision. The more convenient the candidate (i.e. Bob in accountings’ sister in law) the more likely it will haunt you for a long period of time.

Managing difficult people at work
Did you know that a typical Manager wastes up to 25% of her/his time dealing with misunderstandings, personality conflicts and controversy? Underpinning any major difficulty at work is usually a ‘people issue’ - whether it be stress, poor communication, low morale or poor productivity, all have their basis in the relationships of the people involved. This more than anything underpins the need to invest in team members and their ability to work well together. Behind a successful business are its people. Investing in them results in them giving of their best – a win/win for everyone. But what if day after day a particular team member is still really difficult to work with and you can see this affecting even the most placid of people in the office? There is hope! As a Manager there are some things you can do that will help:

Building a Leadership Team - Part 2
Talent is necessary for building a winning leadership team, but talent is not sufficient. You can recruit the very best in every functional area of responsibility in your organization, but unless they work well together, you will fail to create sustainable value. And in a competitive environment, you will lose to teams with far less talent if they work well together but you don’t. There is a tongue in cheek axiom that comes as a corollary to this – “I’d rather be lucky than good.” If you believe in blind luck, go with God and stop reading. If you believe we make our own luck, I’d like to share three principles for creating a great leadership team and some practical insights into each: agreement on the mission, clear communication, and balance. Part 2 = Clear Communication

“Powerful Communication Tips For Managers and Supervisors, From Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach”

Microfinance - Where We Are Now: And Where We Are Headed
All of us who are involved in microfinance know that it is neither just nor economically tenable for financial systems in poor countries to serve only a tiny proportion of the population and exclude the vast majority. We are no longer alone in this. All over the developing world people are waking up to the fact that poor people need - and will pay for - a wealth of financial options, solutions and services, just like rich people. They are realizing that poor people represent a vast untapped market opportunity. And as a result we are witnessing poor people's finance becoming mainstream finance in most poor countries.

Business, Friendship and Communication and Disputes
Much can be said about the value of communication in business. But nothing is more important than clear communication when it comes to combining friendships and business relationships. Over the past several years, I have been privy to disputes that I should never have been made aware of. Petty disagreements, cries of unfair business practices and statements meant to discredit other business people and their practices have been brought to my attention over and over. In every one of these situations, poor communication has been the catalyst to many disagreements and the poor behaviour that follows.
