1.2 From Copenhagen to the Millennium Declaration: Working Out of Poverty
In 1995, the Copenhagen Social Summit put the “people’s agenda” back into the forefront of international policy.

Small Business Tips: Turning Words Into Deeds
Deed is just another name for action. First you need to ensure you have thought and imagined the foundations of your business – getting clear on your products, services and customers. Next you need to have "inked" these thoughts into plans, brochures, web sites and copy. Finally you need to take action. Action is where you put your energy behind your thoughts. There are many sayings around the importance of action "You miss 100% of all shots you fail to take", "You've got to be in it to win it" and "The journey of 1000 miles begins with just one step" are a few of my favourites.

A Call to Action for the Sales Force
Al Gore has become more famous for his call to action against global warming than he ever was as Vice President of the United States.

National Publicity Summit – Should You Go?

Here's a run down of the reasons I've decided to go.
Dig It
Through what I refer to as my "leadership moment", I dig as deep as I ever have to uncover a climbing rope on the way to the summit of Mt Everest.
Action Plan Example
Action plans are fairly common in business, but probably done wrong as often as not. A lot of people do not understand what an action plan is and often mistake it for a COE or Correction Of Errors, not one of my favorite types of documents. Having a good action plan starts with an understanding of what an action plan is and a great action plan example would be a huge help in this. An action plan is a forward looking document and should be addressed as one. When looking at an action plan example one should take this into account. Action plans prevent business gaffs, keep everyone on task and help smooth out operations. In a way they could be considered a mini business plan, though I tend to look at them as a working business plan.
Optimising Learning Initiatives
Neuroscience can now tell us a lot about optimal learning processes. At the recent NeuroLeadership Summit in Boston, October 2010, Lila Divachi talked about a way to ensure memories stick for AGES. Using the accronym AGES, she talks through the neuroscience of Attention, Generation, Emotion and Spacing as the keys to improving memory rentention from training. As a student of then first Masters in Neuroscience of Leadership, the Summit provided invaluable additional research.
It Takes More Than Marketing to Attract Big Bucks
Marketing is an action. Action doesn’t create a result. It’s all about what is driving the action. You need to be fully into it before, during and after the action for it to create the impact that you want.
