How to Respond to Criticism – Learning from Dr. King
I am embarrassed to tell you that, up until three weeks ago, I had never read Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s Letter from a Birmingham City Jail. It is, without a doubt, one of the best case studies in how to deal with criticism I’ve ever come across.

Infinite Possibilities
Opportuities are in front of us and we are held back from grasping them because we don't see them. When we close our eyes to infinite possibilities others take advantage of them and leave us to wonder why success eludes us. Be aware, look around, dream the impossible and then make it happen.

The A to Z of Small Business Sales - Loyalty Part 2 - Loyalty Starts With People
You cannot buy loyalty. Loyalty is something that is earned every day and through relationships. The small business owner should ask "What can I Do to be loyal to customers and employees?". President Kennedy asked a similar type question forty years ago - "Ask not what your country can do for you ... ask what you can do for your country."

Wikipedia for Patents
John Funk, an entrepreneur (I’m an investor in John’s newest company – Evergreen IP) and friend has a innovative proposal up concerning changing the rules on the current patent system. I’ve been on both sides of the patent aisle with John – we like to joke that early on in our relationship John’s company sued one of my companies (and then my company sued John’s company back) for patent infringement (the companies settled several years later for a cross license and $1 – much to the delight of the lawyers who got all the bucks.) Fortunately we got past all that crap and have developed a nice friendship.

Marketing Software
I have a friend named John who I met a few years back at a business convention. Due to our similar interest in startups, we hit if off right away. John was just working on getting his public relations company off the ground and running, and with the amount of passion he always had for this business, I had no doubt he would be able to do so. But, after having lunch with John the other week, I realized something; three years after I had first met him, John was still struggling to get his business off the ground. It wasn’t because he wasn’t dedicated. Rather, after talking to him, I realized he was missing out on having one big advantage: marketing software.

Success Through A Positive Mentor
"Success Through A Positive Mentor" is John Paul Carinci's story of how a chance meeting with an Olympic champion at age 21 changed John forever. by John Paul Carinci: author of "The Power Of Being Different" (c- 1998 John Paul Carinci)

Maintaining Yesterday vs Creating Tomorrow
John F. Kennedy once said that the best time to repair the roof is when the sun is still shining. That is a luxury we do not have right now. Instead we must proactively confront our fear of change. Embrace it. Learn to be comfortable with it.

Tiger Feeding Frenzy Reminds Me Of Nixon Quote
As I watched the panoply of media descending on the Tiger Woods story like a Saharan dust storm I was immediately reminded of a quote in which Richard Nixon standing before a picture of John F. Kennedy lamented, "when people look at you they see what they want to be . . . when they look at me they see what they are."

Three Key Elements to Improving Leadership
Great leadership is the key to success. Great communication is the key to great leadership. Think of any great leader in modern time: Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Jr, and John F. Kennedy come to mind immediately. They were powerful leaders because they could inspire people to follow them. It was their ability to articulate their vision that made them successful in achieving their goals.

Managing Resistance
How do I overcome objections? How do I handle “NO”? How do I deal with difficult people? At the beginning of our leadership development workshops, when we ask the participants what they would like to accomplish, these are by far the most popular responses. Many people seem programmed to think if they can overcome, handle or minimize negative points of view, then others will drop their resistance and the goals will be achieved. In other words the belief seems to be “If I prove my point, you will you drop yours.” Dean Rusk, the Secretary of State under President Kennedy exposed the futility of that logic when he said, “To me, the silliest argument in the world is, ‘If you knew what I know, you would agree with me.’”

Honoring Ted Kennedy
On August 25, 2009, Edward Moore “Ted” Kennedy passed away. Ted Kennedy, as the public called him, and his work had a great influence on the human resource practices of today. In this special issue of Astronology, we pay tribute to Ted Kennedy by examining 6 areas of influence he had on Human Resources. The Senate will not be the same without Ted Kennedy.

Crisis Equals Opportunity - Sales and Marketing Training
“When written in Chinese, the word "crisis" is composed of two characters-one represents danger, and the other represents opportunity.” -John F Kennedy
