How to Spend It: Making the Most of Aid
Africa can absorb and manage increased aid flows. That was the consensus expressed at the plenary session. In his introductory remarks, Graham Mackay, Chief Executive, SABMiller, United Kingdom; Co Chair of the Africa Economic Summit 2005, made clear his view that there is no realistic alternative to continuing aid, with a doubling of flows needed over the next three to five years. This, though, he warned, runs against the present current of declining flows.

I took my time with it and felt confident about clarifying my current situation and writing out my next 3 month goals.

Sales Coaching for Business Growth
Good coaching changes behaviour. But how do you generate awareness, get them to take responsibility for their actions or lack of action, and lead the person to motivate themselves and want to change? The coaching session should be a monthly session unless they require more support, and each session should have homework allocated. Once the person demonstrates they are taking action in the form of their homework, you know the coaching is effective.

Giveaway Marketing Basics
Here's something to consider whenever launching a giveaway marketing campaign: what's in it for the giver? Giving stuff away just to get the word out isn't really much of a justification. For instance, giving away free chairs would be pretty pointless for a chair seller. The buyer already has a chair, so why would they ever bother going into the store and buying one now?
