What we Think About Sales Motivation is All Wrong
The bottom line - for your salespeople - is that everyone is different; everyone is motivated by different things and for those who are clearly motivated by money, and where you have a clear goal and focus for them, their compensation should and must be commission based. When you have people who are motivated more by recognition, awards, competition, time-off, public service, or philanthropy, your compensation program should be flexible enough to compensate them in an appropriate manner too.

Private Chinese Direct Investment in Africa: Some Examples
The examples below are based on Naidu (2007) and a Chinese government website (http://preview.english.mofcom.gov.cn).

THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS OF PROFESSIONAL SERVICES MARKETING AND HOW TO AVOID THEM
By John Doerr The science and art of professional services marketing have come a long way in the last few years. It is no longer impossible to find examples of marketing efforts planned well, executed well, and measured well. Yet, in spite of these great strides, I continue to see the same marketing sins committed over and over again to the detriment of the firms and the people steering the marketing ship. What’s frustrating about these sins is that they are all made by intelligent people who have the good sense and ability to avoid them.

How the Mind Works: Understanding Your Mental Software
The complexities of the mind have left thinkers, scholars and philosophers baffled for a millennia. For the past two hundred years the field of psychology has sought to understand why we are the way we are but reviled little as to how the mind works. The latest advances in psychology, cognitive science and neuro science have lead to new models and a whole new science of mind has emerged. We now know more than ever before about how the mind works. And when you know how the mind works, changing it becomes easy.

The Science of Selling - Rules versus Data
Regular readers know that I like to talk about the science of selling. I don't mean the science of the sales process, strategy and tactics, as much as the science of research, data and proof. There is a science to selling but a more appropriate name for it would be the rules of selling. In Baseball, the rules dictate what you do, when you do it and how it should be done. In Selling, the rules accomplish the same thing.

Well, that day is upon us.

Monetary Police is Science, Everything Else is Stamp-Collecting
This new Eric Leeper paper seems delusional in arguing that monetary policy is science, while fiscal policy is stamp-collecting, but I maybe I'm just being crotchety. The piece also comes up with the new-to-me argument that monetary policy would be even better science if it weren't for fiscal policy mucking things up.
