Shopping For Success: How Sinegal Took Costco to the Top
| |
| When Sinegal’s college presented him with its Most Distinguished Alumnus award, the Costco founder was almost left speechless. “I’ve never been told I’m a most distinguished anything,” was all he could say. With his poor grades and lack of focus in high school, it is doubtful that Sinegal’s teachers ever thought he would amount to much. But, today, with a billion dollar corporation under his belt, Sinegal remains not only one of the most accomplished, but also one of the most admired and liked CEOs in the industry. How did this once reckless young boy become the success he is today? |

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. |

The Fine Art of Pulling Weeds
| |
| Just as in any garden, in life, weeds are inevitable and frankly just evidence of our fallibility as humans. Weeds of fear, poor attitude, bitterness, laziness, indecision, ignorance, clutter, poor time management, failure to set goals, lack of exercise, poor eating habits, and neglected relationships. How often do we allow them to grow unchecked until they choke out our happiness, contentment, and success? |

A Small Hole Can Sink A Big Ship - The Poor Performer and Other Like Obstacles
| |
| Of all the non-actions likely to negatively impact on a team’s morale, it seems none is quite so damning as a failure to respond promptly to a team member’s poor performance. Research consistently contends that business leaders lose most kudos when poor performance is left unattended and poor performers are able to continue their inappropriate behaviour without repercussion. Whilst many leaders may opt to avoid the situation of a poor performer and choose instead to alienate them in the hope they will leave of their own accord, the disharmony created through such a strategy is frequently so great that it infiltrates into other facets of the business. |

Growing Others into What They Could Be
| |
| I was doing fairly well in grades one to three - especially in reading. Then I hit a terrible teacher in grade four. She made school so unhappy and unappealing, she almost caused me to drop out - of course I would have waited another few years to make it official. However, in grades five and six I came under the nurturing of Mrs. Westman. I vividly remember her saying after I'd read a composition to the class; "someday I won't be surprised to see your name on a book." |
