People Are Our Most Important Asset!


How many times have you heard or uttered this phrase in the last 5 years or so. As a "reformed accountant" this phrase makes me cringe more than any other business euphemism being espoused today.

The Ivory Tower Syndrome


"His cardinal mistake is that he isolates himself, and allows nobody to see him; and by which he does not know what is going on in the very matter he is dealing with. - Abraham Lincoln on his reason for relieving Gen.

The Communications Myth


Living in the 21st Century is truly marvelous, isn't it? We live in a world of instant communications where everything we need to know is right at our fingertips.

The Truth About Performance Reviews


Now that it is January, many of you are putting together, or have just finished putting together your annual Performance Appraisals for your staff. Feedback on performance is certainly one of the most critical aspects of personnel development and one that deserves to be taken very seriously.

The Truth?


The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple. Oscar Wilde The truth.

Hold Your Applause!


It's amazing what you can accomplish if you don't care who gets the credit.     Harry S Truman President Truman had decided that Secretary of State, General George Marshall's name should be attached to his plan for massive European relief following World War II.

Think it Over


You can't solve a problem with the same thinking that created it. Albert Einstein Every decision is a deliberate act.

Just The Facts


Attitudes are more important than facts. Dr.

One Crazy Cookie

A Journey of a Thousand Miles


You can't build a reputation on what you are "going" to do. Henry Ford Everyone procrastinates in their own way.

Million Dollar Support System For You and For Your Business


Whether you are a consultant, coach, business owner, doctor, professional, corporate elite or student, whatever your profession is, moving towards your dream requires taking courageous steps. Making long-lasting changes requires us to create a network of support.

Whadda Jerk!


If one does not understand a person, one tends to regard him as a fool. Carl Jung Sadly, public discourse today seems to have degenerated into warring parties spitting epithets at one another.

A Man and His Razor


It is vain to do with more what can be done with less.  William of Ockham This is Ockham's famed Razor.

Burger on a Bun Decision Making


When approaching any decision, it's important for individuals to maintain the healthy state of openness called for by WYSINWYG (what you see is never what you get). Remember that there is always more going on than simply meets the eye.

The DNA of Motivation


It really is about motivation. After all, what impels someone to climb a mountain, or go to college, or save for a car, or learn a new language or anything of a thousand things? What is it that moves someone to action from a position of comfortable stasis? The answer is motivation.
