Are you thinking about what you said and how you looked during your last face to face job interview and wish you had a second chance to make a great impression? Here are 7 quick suggestions to help you put your best foot forward and step way ahead of your competition for the job you want:1. Research the company you will interview with. There is no longer a need to go into a job interview ‘cold’. The internet is a vast resource of company information. From how the company started and who is the current head of the company to their

There I was sitting in my front room looking at the boxes stacked around me. The feeling I had was one I had never experienced before. In one stroke I was out of a job and out of a place to live. The not for profit organization my wife and I worked for had sent us packing after twenty years of faithful service. There we were, both incomes lost, almost $90k a year, in the past. The home we had lived in which was provided by the organization was to be vacated in no less than 60 days.After a life time of giving myself to one cause one purpose what was I now to do. As we arrived in our new place of residence and the movers unloaded our b
Starting your own business is hard enough, however when your inside people are working against you as well, it can make the toughest of souls weak at the knees.
Let me take you back a few years, and share a little story with you.
There I was, a fledgling in the corporate world, I had just quit my (steady) job and sold everything I had to venture out into entrepreneur life, when “it never could happen to me” happened.

In order to be UNFORGETTABLE, you must have your own philosophy. A lens. A paradigm. A system. A unique method or expertise unlike anyone else in your industry.I call this a “School of Thought,” and it all started when my best friend, mentor and former 10th grade English teacher, William Jenkins, once asked me an extremely powerful question:If everybody did exactly what you said, what would the world look like?When you find the answer to that question, you've got your philosophy. When you find your philosophy, you've got your uniqueness. And when you find your uniqueness, you become That Guy.The best

In order to get the most value out of interactive web conferencing sessions try the following simple steps in order to keep it affordable.1. To save money, save time. A well-planned conference with an agenda is the conference that doesn't use up a lot of time answering questions over what is going to be covered or what has already been discussed. If someone joins in late and it will take more then a few minutes to catch them up to speed, either send them the notes of the meeting later, or hold a separate phone call with them at a later date.2.

"What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet." --Romeo & Juliet, Act II, Scene IIWell, a rose by any other name may smell just as sweet to Shakespeare, but don't try to call the tax collector to ask a property appraisal question. Not knowing which office to call may simply get you an exasperated employee who is unable to assist you.If you are not sure exactly which department to call about your property tax question, try finding out if your local government has a "311" type of service. This is the concept of "411 telephone directory information”writ small to address only phone numbers in

I’ve been active in consulting, offering seminars and speeches, and customized training programs for more than 20 years.During that time, I’ve done hundreds of seminars and speeches, public and onsite, and I’ve trained thousands of people, many of whom have given me written evaluations and letters praising their experiences.Tonight, in gathering some quotes to use in a seminar brochure, I had to wrestle with a few important questions:(1) How old is too-old, if you have a reference or testimonial?(2) If the reference’s company has been purchased by another entity, do you use the original company name, the updated
I come from one of those attitudes that believe that everything happens for a reason, so what could this reason be, I pondered?
It was tough; let me tell you - faced with the biggest crossroad of my life.
A failing business with no cash to save me, a close friend’s betrayal, and two roads leading into separate directions.

What would you do?
For myself, I chose the second of the two, knowing darned well, that by wasting my (thoughts and e
