Casual Articles - Successful Collaboration; Overcome Misinformation Based Pitfalls
In previous articles, I have talked about strategies for creating a strong opening to your presentation. Once you've grabbed your audience's attention, it's time to move into the body of your presentation. Here, you'll discuss your topic in more detail. If your purpose is to inform, you'll use the body of your presentation to describe your topic and demonstrate how it relates to your audience. If you're goal is to persuade, you'll use the body of the presentation to define the problem and offer your solution. In this article, we'll discuss proven methods for developing the body of yo
To reduce the effects of Partnering pitfalls, David Elliott, senior vice president and chief administrative officer at Technicolor in Hollywood, CA shared his thoughts with me. "If a partner fails to meet their responsibilities, a clear agenda is necessary that both sides are operating from. When the agendas are different or conflicted
The popular junior Democratic Senator, Barack Obama, told Time Magazine (2/20/06), "I probably always feel on some level I can persuade anybody I talk to."Wow. I wish I could do that. How do we get other people to do what we want?When I was a kid, my life was all commands: "Clean your room." "Get in the car." "Put some clothes on, people are coming over." And if I ever asked "why," I got the same response: "Because I said so."Then you get a little older, and "because I said so" doesn't work like it used to. My folks had to negotiate a bit to get me in the
You could easily be guilty of underestimating the complexity of coordinating and integrating corporate resources, and overestimating your partner's abilities to achieve the end result. Self-doubt and not believing you have the skills and tools to create an alliance can crop up here.
Eventually, Partnering success depends on management’s abilities, skills, commitment, aspirations and passions in assembling the pieces of the puzzle. When unequal dependence in a relationship occurs, the partner with the least dependence could be less likely to compromise and put energy into the relationship.
Meanings assigned to words by different cultures can cause serious problems. In one culture quick delivery could mean one day and in another it could mean one month. This opens the can of worms often referred to as unrealistic expectations of a partner's capabilities. The areas commonly include technology, research, production skills, marketing might, and financial backing.
We also have the unexpected inefficiencies or poor management practices of a partner that can be the demise of a well-intended alliance plan. Also at risk is the area of developing an alliance with multiple partners, who later become rivals to one another. This puts a serious strain on the integrity of the remaining alliance.
Now that you've had a view of Partnering from the downside, don't let these hurdles stop you. Be clear on what alliance partnering is not. It is not instant gratification, nor a quick fix. It is not a flavor of the month management strategy. Strategic alliances are separate entities that have come together to solve their individual problems in a way that serves the whole mutually. It is sharing core competencies that overlap and create synergies. The struggle is a necessary part of any relationship that is valuable and lasting.

"If a tree falls in the forest, and there is no one there to hear it, did it make any noise?" That was one of the great philosophical issues we used to think about in school. The answer is that the answer depends on how you define noise.But my question to you as speakers is, "If you make a comment, and no one can hear you, what was the point of speaking?" And here the answer is clearer. There was no point, except to hear yourself talk.I was reminded of this recently at a seminar. Over a hundred people packed into a room with only one microphone, a stationary one mounted

Houseal Non-Settling Log SystemSettling in log homes has always been an issue, adding cost and complexity to log home construction. Using traditional methods of construction, logs are stacked horizontally one on top of the other (either scribed or chinked). Because logs tend to shrink and settle over time, the multiple layers of logs compound the effect of wood shrinkage. A traditional 10’ log wall will settle upward of 6 to 8 inches depending upon the moisture content of the logs. Special construction methods must be employed to counter the effects of settling. The use of set

Since the beginning of E-Commerce, credit cards have ruled! Overwhelmingly, online, Visa and MasterCard are the most accepted forms of payment by web based businesses. Unfortunately - outside of the US - most cultures are not credit card (Visa/MasterCard) centric. Research shows that if you are a web-based merchant accepting Visa & Mastercard as your primary payment mechanism - you are losing potential revenues of 30% to 60%.......Further, based on studies in both the US and Internationally, offline spending trends show that debit transactions are rapidly becom
To reduce the effects of Partnering pitfalls, David Elliott, senior vice president and chief administrative officer at Technicolor in Hollywood, CA shared his thoughts with me. "If a partner fails to meet their responsibilities, a clear agenda is necessary that both sides are operating from. When the agendas are different or conflicted—that’s a problem.” He went on to say, “We don't have partnering horror stories because we include an exit strategy, before going into the relationship.”
Elliott's advice for others entering into partnering relationships is to do your homework, know the agenda of all partners in the relationship and measure against it. If after doing your homework you're still not completely sold on partnering with a company, start small. Begin your alliance by partnering with another for a simple or small promotion and get your feet wet. If you do stumble, then having the ability to regenerate after a fall is crucial, especially if you or a partner simply make a mistake.
Having knowledge of the alliance unknown should keep you from becoming immobilized and waiting for opportunities that could easily pass you by. Sure, there are some risks, but to lessen the effects, do your homework, know the agenda of all partners in the relationship and measure against it. If after doing your homework you're still not completely sold on an alliance relationship with a company, start small. Begin your alliance by Partnering with another for a simple or small promotion and get your feet wet.
If you do stumble, having the ability to regenerate after a fall is crucial, especially if you or a partner simply makes a mistake. Be careful when events and circumstances are not what you hoped or planned for. You might go to a place of apathy. If you remain in a toxic mind-set, you'll wait and wait for things to get better before you move into action. The trouble is that things rarely get better until you propel yourself into a state of activity.
To be successful at partnering you must commit to functioning at a higher level. A level that will allow you to stretch your comfort zone an
