Are we having the right conversations with those we lead?
Business and Executive Coach Juliette Robertson (Sydney Australia) challenges those of us leading marketing and sales teams to consider if we are having the right conversations in order to get the best results. When things go wrong and emotions come into play in the workplace it’s a sure signpost to take stock, stop and question what’s really going on. It’s time to change the conversation. Changing the conversation does not mean avoiding the topic. It simply challenges us to look a little deeper at what is really causing the problem. And below the immediate problem lies a host of process and relationship solutions to consider.

Protect Your Ideas With Copyrights and Patents
A wise man once said, "The biggest difference between a copyright and a patent is the number of lawyers it takes to do the paperwork."

Characteristics of a Mentor
What are the characteristics of a mentor? The most important characteristic that mentors share is the willingness to lead by example and to focus on the ways in which differences will make the company stronger. Some of the best mentors are going to find that those who they have mentored move beyond them in the company or become better at the job than the mentor himself or herself.

The Special Force of Mentoring
Having a mentor I an integral part of getting where you want to go and achieving what you want to achieve, as fast as possible, with the fewest mistakes. I consider mentors to be key components of maximizing your Conquering Force. In your life, you have probably already enjoyed the help of several mentors. For example, you may have had a parent, coach, teacher, or associate who made a major impact on your life. A mentor could even be someone you don't know personally-someone whose philosophy or example touched you so deeply you decided to emulate him or her. In some way, directly or indirectly, these people were there for you. They knew what they were talking about, and they showed you a better way to achieve.
Tips for Being Mentored For Success
Don't hesitate to ask others to teach you what you want to know-in any area of life. By replicating their methods and attitudes, you'll get similar results. Finding and working with a mentor should be fun, easy, and very productive-you need not fly through life by the seat of your pants. Select mentors who have successful experience in areas that you don't. You want to capitalize on their strengths and minimize your weaknesses and shortcomings. They must have achieved a high level of success in the same field, endeavor, or area that you are seeking to succeed in. You'll want someone who can challenge you and hold you accountable. You may have several mentors at one time. In fact, I recommend it. If you really think about it, you probably already have several mentors.

Do You Have Silent Mentors to Help in Your Business and Life
“Silent mentors” are those people who have impacted your life in a positive way - often by writing a book, speaking truth, offering a freebie - like an audio or special report and generally being of service to make a difference in the world. I call them “Silent mentors” not because they are quiet but because their teachings or words have shaped lives in amazing ways and often they don’t know it.
