Lesson #5: Do Not Go Wild with Your Marketing
The name L.L. Bean conjures up exciting images of adventure and explora tion. It was the store you would go to if you wanted to set off on an arctic expedition. It was the brand you would trust to get you through a night camping during a thunderstorm in the back woods of Yosemite. It was the company that was going to help you survive your most daring journeys.

No More Clowning Around: Cirque du Soleil is Formed
In 1984, just before the 450th anniversary of Canada’s discovery by Jacques Cartier, Laliberté went to the government of Quebec with a proposal. He wanted to stage a large-scale street show in celebration of the event. He might have had hair down to his waste but Laliberté managed to land the contract. He was ecstatic at the opportunity to take his operations to a wider audience, but it would not be without its troubles.

“I haven’t a dream, wouldn’t know where to get one, and my mind is as vacant as an empty cupboard!”
Just finished my 15th Dreaming Room, and if I must say so (and I must), I was faced with the most difficult group of people I have ever faced.

When Does Training Become Learning?
Have you ever been in a situation that was so difficult you could not wait for it to be over? Learning happens when you experience every moment to the fullest, without dwelling in the past or anticipating the future. I learned something about the meaning of training and learning from an ancient Sufi tale called, Fatima, the Spinner and the Tent.

Are You Living Two Paychecks Away from Homelessness ?
There is a disturbing new trend sweeping America. Cities of homeless people are springing up in middle American towns all over the country. The people who populate these tent cities are not reckless or careless people with no self control. These are formerly hard working Americans who have lost their homes and lost their jobs. With homeless shelters overflowing, their only option is to pitch a tent and live in it.

Ready, Set, Go! Get Strategic on Values
Imagine this...your company spends dollars, time and energy to refine your mission, vision and values in a long needed retreat to reorient the team toward business success. Similar to the evangelist that comes to town to rev everyone up, the passion can often dissipate as the evangelist’s tent is disassembled and goes off to the next town. How can the passion become self-sustaining long after the retreat and into the future? The answer rests in getting and remaining strategic around the values you and your charges spend so much time identifying and marketing.

How many of you out there feel like survivors? Have you experienced and survived a divorce, job change or life-threatening illness? I, too, am a survivor! And I used to be so proud of that word that I almost wore it as a "badge of courage" pinned on my chest.

And I lost it in an ugly divorce, walking away with nothing but my greatest assets, my four children; and I survived! I ended up having to work three jobs. Got up in the morning and repaired bathtubs on construction sites (I'm a plumber's daughter; sold real estate in the afternoon; got home to greet the kids from school, start dinner, and then I was off doing free talks at Rotary and Kiwanis meetings tryin

The Bozo Explosion
It's worth 4 minutes to read Guy Kawasaki's "What I learned from Steve Jobs." He lists 12 lessons not to be lost or forgotten -- worthy, because unlike other such articles, Guy has been inside the tent and experienced first hand what it was like to work with Jobs (he was the chief evangelist of Apple). I particularly like lesson #9 -- A players hire A+ players. This is precisely why hiring the right people is still your most important leadership skill.
