Tanzania launches first ever US television campaign on CNN

Why External Diagonal Career Moves are Rare
An external diagonal career move occurs when someone moves into a more senior or broader role in a different organisation in either the same or a different industry. For example, if a Marketing Manager in an organisation moves to become a General Manager or Chief Operating Officer or CEO in a different organisation, I call this a diagonal move. They are rare. Most of the time people move either vertically or horizontally.
Sales is a team effort
Sales numbers and sales processes should be understood and owned by everybody in your organisation. In today’s world if you are not directly in sales you are supporting someone who is. This is why sales really is a team effort. Rather than being just about a feel good factor and great staff alignment, this has practical applications as well. For instance with the ability for customers (or anyone) to find and connect with anyone in your organisation through many difference channels (i.e. social networks, Google, etc.) the whole business needs to be sales fit.
Are You an ‘IN’ or ‘OUT’ Leader?
Leadership is both 'IN' and 'OUT'. A motivational leader not only guides people in the organisation but also take care and inspire the individuals who indirectly influence the growth factor of the organisation from outside.

Return on Investment
How do we measure return on investment for people at any level in any organisation? I think that it comes down to the question of “What value does this person add?” With established operations, when I am looking at the organisation structure, I have one request that invariably causes problems. It’s a simple: “Please tell me exactly what the people answering to you do; and then tell me what you do that justifies your position.”

Moving to a 'consequential corporate culture'
In any organisation it is the behaviour of its’ people that lead to success, mediocrity or failure. Behaviours stem from a set of values that the organisation must understand and that leadership must role model. Behaviours must also have consequences for the values to have any credibility; an up side for good behaviour in terms of recognition and reward and a downside for poor behaviour in terms of challenge, coaching, training and development and perhaps even having to leave the organisation. In the article we provide 10 areas that you must focus on to embed values and the right behaviours in your business.
Alternative ways to market your tourism business
As the owner of a small tourism operation, you have to ensure that your lodge/transport service/recreational activity is the option of choice for local and overseas visitors. Partnering with a related organisation may be an effective way to get your name out there and do good business throughout the year.

The Value Spectrum of Performance Management
The ‘Value Spectrum' is a term we use to describe how Managers and Executives should be positioning performance goals so that their employees can significantly improve organisation performance. The ‘Value Spectrum' is part of what an employee does that adds significant value to the organisation as opposed to doing things that need to be completed as part of their core duties. Core duties relate more to the position or job description document i.e. tasks the employee already executes to a high standard but which don't help transform the organisation as a whole.

3 Steps to Being a More Effective Boss!
One of the loneliest places in the world is at the top of an organisation. No matter where you are or with whom you are interacting, there is a sense in which you are seen as the epitome of your organisation. This places a pressure upon you that is different from any other. Sometimes this pressure has the effect of reducing your effectiveness and, in the worst case, can lead to poor management and leadership practices. This article considers the issue of "top management loneliness" and suggests a solution that is readily available no matter where you may be.
