Kenya’s Second BarCamp
I’ve been impressed to see the developers and bloggers from Kenya and South Africa taking the time to create gatherings where they can pass on knowledge - everyone ends up profiting from the experience. The techies in Nairobi have just concluded their 2nd BarCamp this year (the first was in March).

The Voice of Action
The voice that says "YES, this is the right decision", "No, let's pass on this", or even "Hmm, let's mull this over a bit." In each instance your voice within advises you to take action, even if it is in-action. But do you really listen to it, or do you scoff at the idea that you actually pay attention to your inner voice?
The Magic of Social Media and Why Your Organization Can’t Ignore it
The Internet has evolved from a curiosity, to a two-way communication platform dominated by academia, and then to a commerce platform that has threatened to make conventional shopping and “business as usual” obsolete. But with that transformation came an example of the law of unintended consequences: consumers became jaded. Barraged by email, banner ads, pop-ups, pop-unders and multi-media online infomercials, the consumer felt more like a commodity than ever. And they started fighting back. Internet users banded together on primitive discussion boards where they found a voice. They were able to communicate with each other, make recommendations, air complaints, and generally provide instant feedback on the quality of goods and service being provided across the ‘Net as well as by traditional land-based (brick and mortar) vendors.

Communication A.P.P.E.A.L.
To succeed as a business owner, you need to create and refine your "entrepreneurial voice." I believe that voice has three components: your private voice (what you say to yourself); your public voice (what you say to the world); and your personal voice (what you say to clients). These three voices, while distinct, still need to align and resonate with one another to successfully run your business. In this article, I offer a perspective on what makes your communication appealing -- those qualities you can cultivate in each of your three voices to be more confident, genuine, and effective in every area of your business and your life!
5 Tools to Build Your Brand Platform
There’s a lot of buzz these days about having a “brand platform.” Perhaps you’ve heard the term, but aren’t sure what it means. Rest assured, you’re not the only one! Even within the advertising industry, you’ll find disagreement over its definition. What one guru calls a “brand platform” another calls a “corporate image.” Don’t be confused. Regardless of what you call it, you need it. A brand platform serves as the springboard for all branding decisions.
If Your Business had a Voice, Who would it Sound Like?
Every business has a voice that comes through in your marketing. That voice has the power to grab your prospect’s attention and hold it, or make them turn away in boredom or frustration. So if you’ve never given the voice of your business a second thought it’s time to reconsider.

Your Intuition is Speaking. Are You Listening?
The voice that says “YES, this is the right decision”, “No, let’s pass on this”, or even “Hmm, let’s mull this over a bit.” In each instance your voice within advises you to take action, even if it is in-action. But do you really listen to it, or do you scoff at the idea that you actually pay attention to your inner voice?

Your Internal Board of Directors ... Part I: Who's In Charge?
Have you noticed? When it comes to running your business, you have a lot of different voices in your head. You have the voice that tells you to work on your business plan, and the voice that tells you that you need to answer that email. You have the voice that encourages you to write an article to promote your business, and the voice that tells you it would never get published. You have the voice that wants you to hire an assistant, and the voice that says it’s easier to do everything yourself. With all the chatter going on in our heads, it is actually amazing that anything gets done!
