Motivation for working: Recognition, Fulfillment or Money?
What are key reasons for working? Asking people this question (and I have asked thousands of candidates in my HR Consulting career) will trigger many different kinds of answers, from financial benefits or sheer survival, fulfillment, recognition, status, power, challenges, social interaction, fun, interest, curiosity and personal development, to meaningful contribution, helping others, service and “making the world a better place”. It is obvious that we all do have reasons to invest our time, ideas, thoughts (and sometimes physical power) in order to achieve something, to obtain a certain feeling or to gain other benefits.

Question Your Franchise Decision Making
Deciding on a franchise may be one of the most important decisions you will make in your lifetime. Before rushing right into it out of sheer excitement, please take some time and ask yourself the basics.
Survival in the SERPs (Search Engine Result Pages)
There is something about using distinct visual analogies to illustrate parallels between search engines (the jungle), traffic (information foragers), competition (predators) and survival in the algorithmic food chain. Just like a jungle, survival in the SERPs (search engine results pages) can be tricky. The uncertainty of search engine algorithms, the survival based impulses that by default comprise 97% of the web pages at large (like playing capture the flag) or a boobie-trap where one step on the wrong twig and you could be consumed, penalized, suppressed, catapulted or removed from the top 10 based on your SEO survival skills, your resourcefulness or your experience in the jungle.
A Stimulus for a Better World: Give them Sustainability without Compromise
Sustainability sounded good when money was flowing in. But now that the economy is broken, business sustainability is taking a back seat to business survival.

Mental Toughness=Profits and Success Today
All sizes and shapes of companies are focused on survival in what Tom Peters calls our “Looney” times today. And, I have focused a lot on survival strategies with my clients. However, strategies, tactics, methods, and techniques are not the total answer. My thinking about survival in our recession has been profoundly influenced by a book called "Deep Survival: Who Lives, Who Dies, and Why" by Laurence Gonzales. It's a book that chronicles incredible stories of survival in plane crashes, getting lost at sea, surviving in Arctic temperatures for weeks, etc. And one theme comes through like a beacon. It is not the physically strong that survive. Surviving [and profiting from this recession] all starts with a single decision.

How Entrepreneurs Can Thrive During The Recession
Entrepreneurship is the best possible solution not only to survive the recession but to go many steps ahead and thrive in it. However, the need of the hour is sheer survival.
