Go Learn Something

Edu­ca­tion is a fun­da­men­tal ingre­di­ent in indi­vid­ual, orga­ni­za­tional and soci­etal suc­cess.  In a world fueled by global com­pe­ti­tion, tech­no­log­i­cal inno­va­tion, and high speed com­mu­ni­ca­tion, edu­ca­tion mat­ters now more than ever.  Recently I dis­cov­ered some­thing called The Khan Acad­emy, an amaz­ing online resource for edu­ca­tion.

Knock, Knock, Knock!

When you hear that bang on the door of life, it is impor­tant to check it out. Sure there are a fair share of times when you pull the door open to find nobody on the porch, but every now and again some­thing spe­cial is wait­ing on the other side of the door. Why am […]

Dead Cat Marketing

Sup­pose your busi­ness sells some­thing to a cus­tomer.  Fol­low­ing the sale, you gather no infor­ma­tion about them.  Instead you send the cus­tomer out the door and off into the uni­verse, hop­ing they will come back again some­day.  In the time that fol­lows, you make no direct or indi­rect attempt to deter­mine if the cus­tomer is […]

SummitUp

For my birth­day this year, I am get­ting some­thing really cool -  a social media con­fer­ence right here in Day­ton.  “Yea, Just what I always wanted, a con­fer­ence!” No, the con­fer­ence was not put on for that rea­son, but it is a nice coin­ci­dence.    The event is called Sum­mitUp, it will take place on October […]

Synergize

Habit 6: Syn­er­gize Syn­ergy is where all of the pre­vi­ous habits come together.  It is the pay­off.  To quote Stephen Covey “Syn­ergy is the high­est activ­ity in all of life.”  “The essence of syn­ergy is to value the dif­fer­ences.”  By doing so, the human gift of cre­ativ­ity can be lev­ered to pro­duce new and exciting […]
