Making Business Personal
One of the most common mistakes people make when building relationships for career success and revenue growth is treating business contacts differently than personal friends. Just think for a moment about the people you work with on a professional level who are also close personal friends. Aren't they always more forgiving when you slip up and more helpful when you're in need than new acquaintances are? Of course! I guarantee your work will be easier, more joyful, and more successful if you make more of your business relationships personal.

The Power of Active Listening
Back when my youngest son was in his troublesome teens, my wife and I took a course on Parent Effectiveness Training. It was an eye-opener, because we discovered that we were not really listening to him. We should have 'Actively Listened'.

Coco Chanel Bio
The Coco Chanel bio is a story that begins far removed from the opulence that her name would later come to represent. Born in Saumur, France, in 1883, Gabrielle Bonheur ‘Coco’ Chanel was the illegitimate daughter of a shop girl – who would die soon after – and a traveling salesman – who would abandon his daughter on the streets of France. It was her two aunts, with whom she was sent to live, who would teach the young girl the etiquette that would come to shape the Coco Chanel bio.

The Power of Intention
Perhaps one of the worst forms of multitasking is when we're trying to spend “quality” time with a loved one, while also trying to be “productive.” I'll never forget an experience I had years ago when I went to my daughter's soccer game on a day that I was feeling overwhelmed and behind. I had grabbed the mail on the way out the door. In my attempt to be efficient with my time, I was sorting through the mail while watching the game. Unfortunately, I was looking down when my daughter made her only goal of the game. I felt terrible when someone said, “Did you see that? Your daughter just made a goal!” Although she never knew, it was one of those moments I could never get back. (I could have read the mail anytime.)

It's Never Too Late for A Happy Life
When Nancy overheard her 5 year old daughter Shelby being asked what she ‘wants to be when she grew up’ she paused to listen to her daughter’s lengthy response. She knew the litany by heart. Shelby wanted to be a rock star, a firefighter, a doctor, a vet, and a writer when she grew up. When the asker responded that she couldn’t possibly be all of those things, Nancy laughed.

How Do I Fire My Son Toby? My Wife Won’t Allow It
"I love Toby. He's my oldest son, he's Vice President of Sales but he just doesn't get it. My daughter should be running this business, she's brilliant but she's married to a surgeon and doesn't want anything to do with wholesale distribution. She's quite happy with all the charity work she is involved in. My youngest son has potential but he's only twenty two and just isn't ready to take over a 0 million dollar distribution business. Two events have occurred recently that are wearing on me a little. First, I transferred 75% of my stock equally to my three kids, 25% each. All three receive a salary although my daughter rarely appears at the office due to her charity work. The second event occurred after I hired a succession consultant to help me transition into retirement. He told me that Toby was incompetetent.
The Art of Negotiation Cotton Candy Style - 5 anytime, anywhere negotiation tips
Jim (my husband) and I took our 6 year old god-daughter (affectionately known as our goddess daughter) to a carnival recently. We are not parents and thought "How hard can this be?" She is old enough to have a really great time, and I think we can handle this, no problem. I mean, she's only 6!" In reflecting on the day (or what I can remember of it), I am reminded of a few keys for successfully negotiating in any situation, even with a 6 year old.
Don\'t Wait to See the Blood
At my youngest daughter's sixth birthday party, a five-year-old boy hit her on the head. Asked to apologize, he politely refused: "Mr. Clemmer, I don't apologize unless I see teeth marks or blood." Many managers don't realize the problems they're creating unless they see the teeth marks or blood on those with whom they work. The most insensitive managers are those who lack good feedback systems and refuse to seek input on how to improve their own performance.
Forward Looking Leaders Know When to Step Back
Poor managers are like vampires. You hold up a mirror and they see nothing. At our youngest daughter's sixth birthday party, a five-year-old boy hit Vanessa on the head. Asked to apologize, he politely refused: "Mr. Clemmer, I don't apologize unless I see teeth marks or blood." Many managers don't realize the problems they're creating unless they see the teeth marks or blood on those with whom they work. The most insensitive managers are those who lack good feedback systems and refuse to seek input on how to improve their own performance.
Real Hope For The Future
I couldn't be more proud of my offspring - all of them - but since it's her birthday today, I'll tell you about my youngest. As far as I know, she's not a celebrity (and also not wanted by law enforcement)... she's just a "normal" twenty-something. But if all normal twenty-something Americans were more like my daughter, we'd indeed have a bright future in store....
