Microsoft Acquires SAP? (A Commentary)
In her December 3rd posting in Information Week, Mary Hayes Weier reported a rumor in which Microsoft was in the process of moving toward acquiring SAP. The markets as Ms. Weier put it “felt strongly enough about the rumor that they drove up SAP’s stock by nearly 2%.” She went on to say that “there could be something to it,” as Microsoft had originally “looked at acquiring SAP” in June of 2004. Here is the link to the post in its entirety: http://www.informationweek.com/blog/main/archives/2007/12/microsoft_rumor_1.html?cid=nl_IWK_daily#community

Do You Know and Plan For The 3Rs for Your Business
Everyone is familiar with the 3-R’s from school – reading, ‘riting and ‘rithmetic. This was our first introduction to an effective performance model. As proficiency increased in each R, performance was further enhanced. Effective performance models by their very design are a continuum that automatically raises performance to the next level.

Performance Coaching
Performance and performance development have to be measured in the consequences or the value to be expected alone. Value means, however, more than performance. Value is rather the result of the operational activity, added value for it so.

List the Basics for Making Any Sale
There is a Ford Mustang for sale down the street. I've driven by it several times. It's a 1966 . . . or maybe a 1967. Every once in a while I stop in the middle of the street next to the car and look at the sign. All it says is "For Sale: $4000 obo" and the phone number. This tells me very little of what I need to know about the vehicle. It gives me no reason to call. No matter what you are trying to sell, and everyone is selling something, you need to provide the basics of your product or service.

Managing Employees Performance
Measuring employee performance has come a long way from the annual performance appraisal to an on-going performance management process. In the past, managers and employees met once a year for the annual performance appraisal (review) to look back at the work done during the previous year and to evaluate what was accomplished. Human resources managers, managers/ supervisors and employees have come to realize that only looking back does little to improve performance. In recent years, there has been a shift away from performance appraisals to a more comprehensive approach called performance management.

Lesson #5: Do Not Waste Time Marketing Outside Your Target Audience
“If you take four street corners, and on one they are playing baseball, on another they are playing basketball and on the other, street hockey,” says White. “On the fourth corner, a fight breaks out. Where does the crowd go? They all go to the fight.”

The "2Bs": Buffett. Basics.
The subprime mess gets nastier by the day. I've seen recent estimates of the fiscal damage alone exceeding $1 trillion. (Not enough pain to reduce Wall Street bonuses, mind you—a record $39 billion in performance-based handouts expected.)

Managing Performance: How To Conduct A Performance Review Right
One of the most common questions we get asked is: "We need to do annual performance reviews. Do you have a performance review form that we could use?" While admirable that the need to conduct a performance review is recognized, the purpose is often lost in the frenzy of filling out forms, setting up meetings with employees, and sitting through awkward, contrived discussions with them about their performance. The performance review is about managing and improving performance. It should be a motivating, inspiring process conducted not just once a year, but on a regular basis. In this article, we'll discuss how to effectively manage performance and provide tips for how and when to conduct a proper performance review.
Message from the Meltdown
In the wake of our financial mess, people from Wall Street to Capital Hill to Main Street are asking: What happened? With the help of 60's parody songster Alan Sherman, CBS's 60 Minutes and some self evaluation, I share a different perspective with a lesson you can apply. What personal development insight can we gain from this mess?
How to Stop Knee Jerk Spending
If I was out street shopping and saw something new that was on special offer, I would buy it immediately with my credit card. If I was out street shopping and saw something new that was on special offer, I would be boring and totally ignore it. If I was out street shopping and saw something new that was on special offer, I would buy it later in the week with cash.

Taking Your Business' Marketing In Your Own Hands – and Winning
