    The space race, Customer Service and monkeys flying rocket ships. 7 strategies for the New Year.
    I was thinking this morning about rockets, the “space race” and Customer Service Management. (I dated myself with the “space race”, didn’t I. But it really happened.)

    "We've got to make our workers happy so they'll be productive." I've searched for years and I can't find evidence to support that. I can find evidence for the statement that: "Productive workers are more likely to be happy workers"

    Implementing A Successful PR Campaign - PR Does Not Stand For Press Release
    There’s no denying that the Internet is allowing more and more entrepreneurs to start their own businesses and effectively market their new products. However, there seems to be an increasingly common misconception when these businesses try to generate media attention and publicity for their products or businesses. Over the past several years, I have had more than a few clients come to me seeking “a PR” to get people interested in their products/businesses. That’s right a "PR". Contrary to what some people think, PR is NOT an acronym for “Press Release

    Booster & Drainers
    Like huge anchors on cruise ships, other people can hold you down. Not intentionally, but their negativity impacts you. It’s hard to be winning at working when you’re anchored in place.
