A crisis is a terrible thing to waste
So what if the economy is hitting a rough spot? Once you’ve invested more in your customers, cut off the dead limbs, watered the good ones, and given your employees a chance to really shine your company is going to be stronger. If you have cash, there are great deals to be had, if you have good credit, banks are still lending. Everybody is willing to negotiate. It is a buyer’s market. Warren Buffet said “be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful.” Right now high quality talent is plentiful, there are many exceptional talents looking for work and many that will work at rates favorable to your clients’ new reality. Start the hunt, hire people you couldn’t afford 12 months ago, whether full time, part time or as a contractor.

Go for brown!
Do you remember making craft glue out of white flour and water at school? Remember how it set like cement when you used it? And how bad it smelled after sitting on the desk for a few hours? Well, every time you eat white breads, pasta and rice, they turn into craft glue in your stomach, becoming foul, sticking to the walls of your bowel and sucking the life out of you. I call it ‘bum glue’ and it’s just as charming as it sounds.

No Bum Glue
‘Bum Glue’ is the term I use to describe refined and processed grains. Do you remember at school, we used to make glue out of white flour and water? Remember how it smelled after a few hours and how it set like cement when you used it?

And after it has been in there for a while, it becomes foul, sticking to the walls of your bowel and sucking the life out of you.

GIVE CUSTOMERS WHAT THEY WANT
Finding out what customers want, and then setting out to meet their needs, provided it can be done at a profit, is what helps prevail in the marketplace. Demonstrating to customers how a product or service can satisfy their wants and desires will strengthen the holding glue between the customer and your business. The wise business owner is always aware of customer wants. Many businesses make the mistake of assuming that a customer’s number one priority is low price. But before price even becomes a factor, the customer wants other things. The customer is looking for ways to improve their quality of life, their productivity, to become more profitable, or to increase their competitive advantage. Meeting one or all of these fundamental wants will add value and move the customer forward.

Read Between the Lines
The majority of feedback on your leadership performance, especially if it’s negative, will come between the lines, not explicitly or literally.

This article highlights some tips for reading between the lines.

Boxing Day & Work From Home
Tinsel glue, perls and article writing. How the lucky mom I am, can sit & enjoy the freedom with my children as they enjoy their gifts from santa right before my eyes as I work :) This is truly a gift from the ether so let me empower you to have the same freedom to do the same with your life.

More Change Demands More Leadership
Change is a fact of life. And as the pace of change accelerates, organizations are being pulled in many directions by factors such as new technologies, customer demands, e-commerce, workforce demographics, business model challenges, fierce competition, shareholder expectations, shrinking cycle times, and shifting work ethics. Now, more than ever, organizations need the bonding glue of a strong culture to hold everything and everyone together.
