Why Many Websites Fail
Here’s a statement that may shock you. No one gives a darn about how great a web site is designed! Does that surprise you? Well, in truth, all anyone cares about when they hire a web designer is whether they can solve their problems and get them new clients. Ask any visitor to a web site what they want from a site and in all likelihood they’ll tell you that they just what to find the information or the product they’re after. So, in fact, it doesn’t matter if a site has great graphics or is filled with fabulous flash animation because the bottom line is this: When designing a web site, your only concern is whether the web site does what it was meant to do, which is to get new business.

5 Mistakes I made in 2005
Even though I’m pretty happy with how 2005 turned out, there are still some things I wish I had done differently. Here are 5 things I aim to change for 2006.
Lesson #1: Psych Yourself Up Not Out
“I was raised with the notion that you can do pretty much anything you want,” says Omidyar. “I always kind of just went ahead and tried things.”
Workplace Conflict Resolution: A Practical Guide
When it comes to conflict, it’s pretty easy to take a bad situation and make it even worse. We say the wrong thing, in the wrong way, at the wrong time. Our emotions get the best of us and pretty soon things have spiraled out of control. With a little thought and planning, however, you can effectively work out problems with coworkers, clients, family, and friends. The next time you’re engaged in a quarrel or dispute, try the following approach:

Bad Apples on the Sales Force - Sales or Sanity?
I've met hundreds of these individuals during the past 25 years and they're all pretty much the same. They're loud, arrogant, know-it-alls that crave attention and will say pretty much anything to get it.
Warning: Are You Being Hit With The Outrageous Askers?
Right now, I'd bet that within the past 90 days you've been asked to do some pretty outrageous things. It really could be anything -as in these tough economic times people have to get creative. Some of the requests are an immediate NO (and I don't blame you) however some of them may be worth thinking twice about.
Not Your Fault? Then Whose Fault Is It?
It's easy to blame anyone or everyone else when things go wrong - the truth is that we are all pretty much in control of our destiny - and fail to take responsibility for it
Is your marketing painful?
Marketing a business (or in my case a health care practice) needs some pain. We need to remind our prospects of why they need to use our services, and give them the option of chosing us. Pretty, pretty marketing just won't do!
Ideas for Political Survival
There is an old saying “Too soon old – too late smart.” During my long career in a large organization, I somehow managed to do some pretty bonehead things politically. I will never be someone who is politically brilliant because I am far too outspoken. But I have learned some things and want to pass on an idea to others.

Those Damned Assumptions
We're all pretty much programmed to have assumptions. We assume things based on our own perspectives, our history and our observations.
Turn Your Ordinary Notebook into a Powerhouse
Face it mobile device manufacturers want you to buy the newer, sexier device even though it's pretty darn good and has served you pretty well for a year or so. They have pretty nasty warnings when it comes to you upgrading it with 3rd party products. How hard is it to do and what's the real scoop? Here you go straight talk, solid recommendations.
