Case History - How Not to Hire Salespeople
A company wants to hire 5000 salespeople - but why? 2000 drop out before completing training, and another 2000 drop out during the first 90 days in the field. Another 500 drop out during the first 6 months, and at the end of the year they only have 500 of the original 5000 standing. What would it be worth to them from a cost, time, resources and practicality standpoint for us to simply identify, in advance, the final 500, before anyone is hired?

Social Graph - The Next Future Overused Phrase
Get ready to start hearing “Social Graph” as frequently as you hear “Web 2.0.” The construct of the Social Graph (and its friend – Social Network) has been around for a while. Now that Facebook has stolen our minds (and help us control our friends), we all are part of a social network. Or nine.

Entrepreneurship and the Global Economy
Entrepreneurs are the bedrock of the capitalist system, and their development has to be seen in the context of the development of societies that allow and even encourage private accumulation of capital for investment.

Prospects Are Like Children
When telling stories about our son, I usually write in the context of Salespeople are Like Children. However, with this article, I'm writing in the context of Prospects are Like Children. When prospects want something badly enough, they can become quite resourceful. Think about what you've been willing to do when you wanted something - really badly - that you couldn't afford.
The creativity/business conundrum
The concept of creativity is an abstract one, at best. The dictionary tells you that when you ask for creativity, you can expect to see “the ability to use the imagination to develop new and original ideas or things, especially in an artistic context.” This is all well and good if you’re in the market for something astonishing to frame and hang on your wall, but in the context of business design it falls somewhat short of adequate.

Dealing with Abrasive Personalities: Is it them or you or both?
When coaching abrasive managers and executives I have discovered that in some cases they are only abrasive in the context of an overly passive culture. Before labelling a problem employee or manager, examine the context of the department, division or company.
Avoidale Mistakes Made By Sales Leaders

Social Media Principle 10 – Measure and Evaluate
While we intuitively know that being social is a good thing we must not forget that we work in a commercial context. Very rarely do clients give you a free hand (and a budget) to do social strategies just for the sake of it - they want to see results.
