Friend or Foe the Importance of Creating Great First Impressions
We often refer to the brain as having two hemispheres: the left, largely responsible for logic, and the right, predominately responsible for creativity. This description fits what we know to be the cortex or new brain; however, there is a third dimension, the hypo-thalamus or pre-historic brain, which is in fact the brain stem and is solely responsible for instincts.

Lesson #3: Promote the Principle of Professional Discipline
“While you are responsible to your clients for sales results, you are responsible to consumers for the kind of advertising you bring into their homes,” said Ogilvy. “I abhor advertising that is blatant, dull, or dishonest. Agencies which transgress this principle are not widely respected.” When it came to running his advertising agency, Ogilvy was a professional to the core. He insisted on maintaining the highest of standards in both the ads the company created and the way he treated the people with whom he worked.

Supervisory Skills
Supervisors are responsible for not only meeting corporate goals, they are also responsible for bridging the gap between upper management and front-line employees. Those supervisors that take this task seriously and utilize their supervisory skills are the ones that have a dramatic and positive effect on the overall business as well as their staff’s performance and behavior. Are your supervisor ready for the challenges ahead? Do they need training?

No leader is master of everything
One of the key failures senior executives and leaders tend to make early in their careers is acting with hubris. This affliction recurs with even the best who have had marvelously successful careers and begin to act without appropriate caution or due diligence. The best way to solve this problem is to look for outside input just to be sure your thinking is clear. The key is knowing when to seek input to avoid making bad decisions. In this article, I talk about how to get input from others and improve your decision making, and ultimately your success as a leader.

Job Myths (Part One)
Congratulations you've got a job! Now did you get a job description and a list of things you were suppose to be responsible for? Great. That's the first myth....that that list is what you're responsible for and will be paid to do. Come learn about two job myths so that you can become your owm Myth Buster!

Down with Networking!
Networking is probably one of the toughest and most important aspects of the job search..not to mention our careers and overall professional development. Unfortunately, it’s also one of the most hated, misunderstood and, consequently, poorly practiced areas in our careers, too, which is probably why many of us dread networking altogether. Still, like it or not, we simply must do it. It’s too difficult to land a job, an internship, or a new client today without networking.

Franchising: The 3 Best Passive Opportunities
Many of the candidates that I assist as a franchise consultant are looking for a complete overhaul in their professional careers. Some hate their jobs, while others feel they’re not compensated at the same level of their performance or for their true worth to the company. Or maybe they’re simply not living their passion. On the other hand, others are perfectly satisfied with their careers, but are looking for an investment vehicle or an opportunity that allows for passive ownership. In essence, they desire the ability to be an absentee owner. There are many very good passive franchise businesses available in a variety of categories. Here are just a few:

Reacting too soon from your emotions
The way we choose to communicate is important. You are not responsible for how others interpret your information, but you are responsible for your method of communication. We want to be considerate of others and have our intention be understood at the same time. There is a lot more going on than just our words. Our emotions behind our words, our intention behind our message, our vocal tones, and our body language will affect the way our message is received. There is a difference between responding versus reacting. If you react too quickly from your emotions it doesn’t give you a chance to discern or internalize and you are allowing your emotions to control you. To respond in an emotional mature way, take some time to BE RESPONSIBLE and process your emotions. If your tone is “harsh” during many of your communications, it’s possible tha

Nobody's Inspired By The Blame Game
Too much time and energy have been spent by the major institutions of our country (news media, infotainment, government) in debating who or what was responsible for the shooting of Gabby Giffords and others on January 8. It hasn't inspired anyone. Not enough time and energy have gone toward considering who or what is responsible for her recovery, described by her own doctors as nothing short of "miraculous"....

Is Your CFO REALLY a Chief Financial Officer
No offense to all those dedicated, competent, excellent performing CFO’s out there but I have to admit that I run into a number of individuals in business that hold the respectable title of CFO (Chief Financial Officer) that shouldn’t be the Chief of anything. Oh, some of these CFO impersonators do a good job as an accountant and some may even qualify as a Controller. But, there are some that just shouldn’t hold the title of Chief Financial Officer. “The chief financial officer (CFO) is a corporate officer primarily responsible for managing the financial risks of the corporation. This officer is also responsible for financial planning and record-keeping, as well as financial reporting to higher management. The CFO is also responsible for analysis of data”. So…… ask yourself; is your CFO really a Chief Financial Officer.
