On The Job: The Launch Of Apple
While the 26-year-old Wozniak was content with his computer hobbyist group, the 21-year-old Jobs had a greater vision for the future. After seeing a computer that Wozniak had designed for himself, Jobs began to think about the marketability of such products.

Lesson #4: Use Innovation To Break Through Your Limitations
“We are used to things improving every year; we are used to having a better cell phone next year than this year; a better lap top,” says Musk. “We are even used to some basic things, like we expect more from your car in next year’s model than last year’s model. But this is not the case in space; reliability and cost - those are the fundamental parameters of transportation - have not improved.”

Tip of the week - Great recruiting takes great relationships
When people are considering new job opportunities, I always tell them "Make sure you consider who you'll be working with, who will be mentoring you, and who you can get access to because of this job.

Article Your Way Through the Marketing World:
Article marketing has been around way before online media has been invented. Business establishments have been known to promote their products and services through the written media even before the internet was invented. And with the onset of the internet, online article marketing has become an easier means of promotion compared to its older predecessors.

Why Participate in Social Networking?
It’s kind of funny, but it took me quite a while to begin actually marketing on social networking sites. I’ve been on LinkedIn for probably five years, MySpace for maybe a year, and several others (Ning, Ryze, Eons, probably more I’m forgetting). But it was only when I joined Facebook in October 2007, and then shortly thereafter found my way to Plaxo and CollectiveX that I finally started using them to really do some business.
The Economic Stimulus Package Can Help YOUR Business
Taking Obama’s strategy to the next level is encouraging the “risk takers” to step up. They are the entrepreneurs and small businesses. Entrepreneurs and small business owners are agile, hungry for success and quick on our feet, unlike our cousins the large companies, who are busy circling their wagons, laying people off and retrenching. I cannot emphasize enough how important a time this is for us all in our businesses. It is during these economic downturns that businesses and markets reinvent themselves and evolve the markets and economy on to greater heights.

Luman's Law of Change
“If you’re not exploiting change, it’s exploiting you.” –James R. Lucas Steve Forbes says: "Jim Lucas is an internationally recognized authority on leadership and organizational life…You can take what he says to the bank – both figuratively and literally."

There are Wolves at the Door and I Used To Be One
So you have decided to open your own business--to "Follow Your Bliss" as the wonderful folklorist and mythologist Joseph Campbell was wont to say. You are to be truly commended for finding the courage within to do so and taking that leap; but be cautious--there will be wolves at the door. I know this, because at one time I used to be one.

Baseball and Leadership
Baseball is a game that rewards the clever. As with adaptability, baseball games often hinge on the smallest and most ingenious plays. A pick-off at first base. A hit and run with two outs.
