SMEs in Africa: the “Missing Middle”
The development of the private sector varies greatly throughout Africa. SMEs are flourishing in South Africa, Mauritius and North Africa, thanks to fairly modern financial systems and clear government policies in favour of private enterprise.

Questions From A Regional Federal Reserve Bank
I have a friend who sits on the board of one of the regional Federal Reserve Banks who sent me the following email the other day.
An Eight-Step Process for Ensuring Your Acquisition and the Integration are a Success
Far too many companies make the mistake of acquiring another organization, only to attempt immediately to assimilate the new company into the original company’s existing processes, programs, and culture. That is why acquisition integration is often extremely painful and unsuccessful. With more than 25 years of experience in executive human resources positions and consulting, I have advised dozens of company presidents, CEOs, and board members on strategies and processes that help ensure a successful acquisition or merger.

Former IBM Pro Lashes Out Over Sales Assessment
A CEO of a fairly large-sized but under-performing OEM asked us to evaluate his sales force. One of the three regional managers, who assessed as poorly as any regional manager could, called to complain about his results. In addition to calling me a toad, Bob said that in the eighties he used to sell and manage at IBM and he led the top performing team.
