5 Step Introvert Guide to Getting More Clients from Your Industry's Top 20 Influencers
A common piece of advice for growing a new business is to develop a Team 100 List. To complete this list, you had to brainstorm the names of 100 business owners in various industries with whom you were acquainted who would be willing to help you promote your business. As an introvert, I always found this task overwhelming. Here's how introverts can get referrals and more clients from the top 20 influencers in their industry.

Build Your Business with Networking
Being successful in business is less about having all the answers yourself than knowing where you can access expertise. Since you can't know everyone, you often rely on your friends or trusted colleagues for referrals, which is where your professional network comes in handy.

How Can You Turn Nothing Into Something?
If you’re a manager, don’t just manage; lead people to a place they never knew possible in their world and then some. Here's how to begin...

Make the Most of What You Don't Do Well
Make the most of what you don’t do well, highlight it and build on it. If nothing else, you can always use a weakness to spotlight a strength.

LEARNING TO HAVE FUN – EVERYDAY!
Even as I write the heading – it feels odd. Surely we don’t need to ‘learn’ how to have fun? Perhaps not. But I do know from the many people I’ve coached, having fun everyday is not something that happens very much. Having fun is often relegated to weekends, special days and holidays – and even some of these days aren’t much fun. This Tip looks at how you can increase the level of fun you have in your life.

The Man at the Top of the Food Chain: Dave Thomas is Born
Dave Thomas starred in 652 commercials for Wendy’s Old Fashioned Hamburgers, more than any other person in television history. But, he wasn’t just that friendly face you saw on TV with his white shirts and red ties; Thomas built his multi-billion dollar fast-food restaurant chain from the ground up, earning him a reputation as one of the most successful and loved entrepreneurs in American history.

Open For Business: Wendy’s Takes Off
In early 1969, Thomas was sitting in the steam room of the Columbus Athletic Club with his friend Len Immke, sharing with him his restaurant ideas. After finding the Club’s dining room closed, Immke commented on how difficult it was to find a good lunch downtown and suggested that Thomas open his own restaurant in one of Immke’s buildings. On November 15, 1969, Thomas did just that and opened the first Wendy’s Old Fashioned Hamburgers in Columbus, Ohio to a packed grand opening.

The Savory Taste of Success Thomas Rise to the Top
Thomas’ father once told him, “You’ll never keep a job!

Quote of the Day
"If I had said 'yes' to all the projects I turned down and 'no' to all the ones I took, it would have worked out about the same."—David Picker, movie studio exec, quoted in William Goldman's classic Adventures in the Screen Trade (cited by Caltech physics professor and author Leonard Mlodinow in The Drunkard's Walk: How Randomness Rules Our Lives)

EVERYTHING THATS BEAUTIFUL IS CRACKED THATS HOW THE LIGHT GETS IN
Leonard Cohen is credited with the above statement. I believe that he has captured the essence of beauty. Beauty is in the nature of our flaws. It is in our reflective self-awareness and acceptance of our imperfections that we discover our true beauty.

What makes Third Generation Leadership “different”?
The Canadian singer-song writer, Leonard Cohen, has a song “Everybody Knows”. In this Cohen is pointing out everybody knows what is going on – especially when things aren’t working – but no-one is prepared to do anything about it. We continue doing the same things – possibly with some “tweaking” but basically still the same – and wonder why there is no real improvement. The issues of leadership and employee engagement are no different.
