If You Were A Horse Would You Win The Kentucky Derby?
Imagine the horses all lined up at the gate in the last Kentucky Derby. Successful businessmen/women are just like thoroughbred horses. They must practice, run like the wind and sometimes be driven to make it first through the line. Like a horse race the majorities are losers and only a few are Triple Crown winners.We know that the majority of horses are not of the quality and disposition to ever be entered at the Kentucky Derby. Some might actually run in their local races but are no

Trucking Companies Can Survive With Freight Bill Factoring
People who own and operate trucking companies know the importance of having a freight bill paid on time. In fact, it is not only important it is vital to the trucker's success in business. Discovering ways around finding a good paying client that only pays every 30 or 60 days can be a very stressful period. Finding a way to pay for the fuel and manpower to continue operating while waiting for payment is the number one issue that faces most trucking companies. Freight bill factoring has becom

CLUETRAIN MANIFESTED - If you don't know where you are going - how on earth do you expect your coaching clients to understand their mission, dream, purpose, mission, goal? A good career consultant has clarity and works their sox off to give the same to their clients.

Many people are attracted by the idea of giving other people advice and guidance - it brings out the 'people-loving' side of even 'die-hard' human resource and employment management professionals who think they might just retire into that role.

DODO FOOD? Just because people you managed in the organization used to listen to you before when you had some control over their lives does not mean that they will pay attention now. You must have something that they would cheerfully pay to hear.

In fact - you need within just a few minutes to build a rapport so strong that the individual will comfortably tell you their life story, unafraid and in total confidence. If you cannot do this now you should not practice on your clients. Do you really listen, so you can hear even what is NOT being said?

IDEAPRENEURS I want you to listen for the person. Listen for who the person is. It comes from focusing your attention on them and on anything you can learn about them as people. Here are three ways you can become a better listener:

Become aware of the thoughts that run through your mind when you are listening to someone. Do you get strong thoughts running through your mind such as "She's right, she's not right? This is good, this is not good? I agree, disagree?

If you become aware of these filters you can get rid of them and PAY attention.

Poems In Training - A Metaphor For Success
Poems and stories can provide powerful metaphors in training, particularly when you are trying to get a motivational point across. If you think about the things you remember from your past education, you will probably note that most of them have come from rhymes or stories of some kind. I mean how did you learn to say your A,B,C's? I bet you're even saying the rhyme in your head right now!I find that participants respond extremely well when you sum up a topic with a rhyme that fits th

Truck Drivers and the Technology of the Road
Working on the road can be a very difficult task. Office jobs offer employees many advantages that most of the time are taken for granted: internet access, phone lines, copy machines, faxes, paper, pens, even the desk!!! After a few days away from home, you find out how difficult the job conditions are over the road and you start to notice those small details. All Truck Drivers and especially Long Haul Truck Drivers face this fact everyday. Fortunately, today the world is growing smaller a

Know How to Hold 'Em - Attracting and Keeping Top Performers
One of the biggest challenges companies are facing is the attraction and retention of top performers. The World Future Society predicted that the greatest test of durability for companies in the next five years would be the ability to get and keep good people. In some industries such as the homebuilding industry there is a phenomenon of merry-go-round employees where employees jump ship within the industry and companies are recycling employees. In the finance industry the big question to a t

"So what YOU are saying is…"

Understanding where people are coming from and what motivates them is a crucial skill in any career consultant. Make developing your patience, listening and empathy skills a life-long goal.

Has your working self got integrity? Not just adherence to a code of values but does the WHOLE of you stand up to scrutiny? A building needs integrity to stand tall. If a support pillar is cracked, we say, 'the structure has no integrity'.

MAGIC Identify where your integrity is less than ideal, subtle, or 'gaping chasm' and take radical action to make them whole again. Turn this around and you'll be able to take your client, onwards and upwards.

Teach your clients networking by YOUR example. As you know, it is NOT about numbers it is about the QUALITY of the relationships you develop with people. Networking takes effort, it takes time to build up close contacts and your time must be carefully managed for maximum benefit.

As a good and credible gatekeeper you can take your client's network from zero to easy- maintenance group of supportive experts and potential JV colleagues in as little as six weeks.

BE NATURALLY BETTER CONNECTED Begin now - show them how to use random acts of kindness. Paying for the coffee of the person behind them in a coffee bar, (or opposite on the train) stopping and speaking with a homeless person or dropping by an elderly lady and fixing her light bulb.

MASTERMIND In the exploding world we live in you cannot rely on giving people the benefit of your advice that is built on the 'old days.' (You know when you had a good idea you milked it for as long as you could.)

This article intends to address the commercial loan process and how one begins a business and sustains growth and prosperity. Starting a business for the first time can seem like one of the most difficult things you do but if you view it as a process and not a destination, the journey will be far more pleasurable and the rewards, more sweet. If you are starting a business or venturing a major project, you will need an actual business plan.

Splitting a branding project typically results in a lack of consistency between pieces in your marketing kit. All of your brand materials should have similar design elements. When a project is split among different design firms, often those firms don't have a similar style, and you can wind up with print collateral, for example, that looks dramatically different from your website.
