Get Listening
Ever heard the saying "He/she will make a good salesperson because he/she has got the gift of the gab"? Nothing is further from the truth. The best listensers are the best sales people.
Making Time for Team Building Relationships
Whatever else you are doing - STOP! - whenever you engage with someone in conversation. Ignore pagers. Put off interruptions. At the very least make sure that you 'honour' the space that you have when you are in any sort of one-to-one with someone else...

Enjoy Beating Burnout
Ever wondered how some people seem to be always relaxed and confident at work, no matter how much pressure, stress and change is imposed on them? We're not talking here of sporadic bursts of high pressure that take more than the usual effort. This is all the time - over weeks and months, even years. The answers don't just rest in the way they approach their work. It's more about what they do when they are away from work. This article unlocks some answers that are, and always have been, available to everyone.
How to Get a Call Back From Your Cold Calls
What’s the most common reason prospects stop communicating with you? They think your going to pressure them. They’re afraid that, even if it’s subtle, we’ll apply pressure to close the sale. So how do we reassure them we aren’t going to pressure them? By staying focused on the truth of the situation rather than on getting the sale. And by using language that clearly reflects this.

Why this Common Sales Mistake is Costing You More Sales than You Realize
The exact language you’re taught to use puts pressure on your prospect. This pressure increases your prospect’s anxiety, and reduces their ability to make a decision.
Are You Working Yourself to Death
A few years ago one of my clients felt a tingling in his finger. Being a workaholic he didn't have time to pay too much attention to it. After all he had meetings booked all day and they were more important than a tingle in his finger. He was about to leave home, then collapsed. Luckily for him, there was another person in the house and they called the ambulance. John had suffered a stroke. The warning signs were there all along. He smoked, was 30kg overweight, his diet was poor and exercise was spasmodic. He worked long hours and was under enormous pressure. Much of the pressure was due to John's organisational skills.

How to Hire Your First Employee
Many small businesses grow rapidly, to the point where they need to hire their first employee either on a part-time or full time basis. It is an exciting time for your business and sometimes the pressure of extra work can make you leap in before you have everything organized for success.

The Power of Prioritising
As we reflect back on 2009, it was a year of change and uncertainty. Many organisations could be compared to a sporting team under pressure. When the market is going their way then everything is working and confidence is high. However when the pressure is on the weaknesses become very apparent and the cracks starts to appear.

The Dark Side
How well can we manage ourselves, our teams and businesses in a crisis or tough times? Are our actions and behaviours putting us, our people and our businesses at risk? As leaders and managers we are on show and our actions often speak louder than our words. In challenging times this is even more evident. Under pressure cracks may appear and our leadership is put to the test. How do we cope under pressure? What happens to us when we crack? When placed under high levels of pressure, most people will rely on coping mechanisms or their strengths that help them manage in day to day activities, but due to the pressure they can actually become counterproductive tendencies. We refer to these as “risk factors” and they can emerge as our dark side.

Why Developing Mental Toughness Will Bring Great Results
You will achieve great results through developing mental toughness. So what is mental toughness? It is the desire of taking control of your emotions in performance situations. Some people claim that they work well under pressure. My mentors often argue that the statement is a myth, and pressure can actually hurt you. With added pressure, the chances are high that you will start having negative self-talk, and then lose belief in your ability to complete a task or project.

Effective Time Management Strategies
Effective time management is a skill or maybe an art. And from experience I know that it takes discipline, effort and commitment to make it work for you. It helps to know yourself. Are you a person that thrives under pressure or does a lot of pressure paralyze you?

Growing Under Pressure: Where Leaders Are Born
It's been said that pressure reveals character. You can tell more about someone by the way that they respond to pressure than almost anything else. Some people focus and maintain their integrity while under pressure... others collapse. This is what makes the difference between leaders and followers.
