Which Did You Do - Lose Your Temper or Self-Confidence
Communication Fact - If we either lose our temper or self-confidence, we can learn nothing in a conversation. 95% of business people do one or the other in most of their conversations. Why? Robert Frost says, "Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing our temper or our self-confidence." Which do you do?
5 Rules Of Gentle Yet Firm Sales And Marketing

When You Really Have to Say, "You're Fired!"

LinkedIn and the Art of Avoiding an Asshole Boss
Since blogging about Bob Sutton’s notorious book, The No Asshole Rule, I have received a constant flow of emails from readers sharing their own tales of lecherous bosses and indignities suffered.

Be Kind and Listen
It has been said that it’s nice to be important, but it’s more important to be nice. Another “oldie” is the fact that when you’re talking you’re not learning; it’s only when you listen that you learn.

The Fine Art of Dealing with Dominant People
Direct, decisive, determined, domineering. These are just some of the words that describe a highly dominant personality. Everyone knows one. You might even be one. Dominant people are the leaders, the pioneers, the risk-takers. Companies are run by them, wars are led by them, innovation follows in their wake. These are the people that we look to lead us where we might not otherwise go. If you are lucky, you will work for one. If you are really lucky, their office will be in another state. Yes, dominant people are the ones we love to hate, or at least hate to talk to (notice that I did not mention listening as a strong point). Get off on the wrong foot with one and your career can take an unwelcome sidetrack. Have them on your side and you have a strong champion. So how can you effectively communicate with such a power personality?
Franchise Development Pro's Let's Use the Same Dictionary!
A very well meaning Director of Franchise Sales and a counterpart on the Internet attempting to draw advertising and leads for them just wrote about their "risk resistant" business. Rubbish (And, if you want a great recession resistant company get back to me...it has something to do with Rubbish!)

(I love the concept talked about, Spring Green, for the right market and the right candidate...but not just any candidate with the hope of "risk-resistance".)

It's rarely the fact that they didn't know how to work the numbers, or that they couldn't put the pieces of a widget together. No, it's almost always their soft skills that generate conversation-their personality, character and values.

Reclaiming Energy
Like fuel in a car, energy is the catalyst needed to keep us in the driver’s seat of our life. Everything we do in life either give us energy or drains our energy. How can we ensure we have the energy needed to get done the things most important to us? Here are 5 quick tips.

A Reality Check
Entrepreneurs are notorious optimists - they almost have to be, to take the risks required to start their own ventures. I'm an optimist too, but I temper my sunny outlook with a large dose of realism. (It doesn't always save me from making dumb decisions, but it helps.)
Are you Proactive or Procreactive™?
Experience tells me that the primary force separating successful from unsuccessful people is action. Successful people act, while unsuccessful people don’t. Achievers do what failures beg off doing. Chinese proverbs put it this way: “Talk will not cook rice,” or “Man who waits for roast duck to fly into mouth will wait a very, very long time.”

Is There an Elephant in the Room?
Living with an elephant is difficult and painful. You are not free to use your talents or free to explore new territories of life.
