		<description><![CDATA[Assembling a team can be challenging when team members have different backgrounds, unique personal agendas, and unrelated methodologies.  If it is difficult to get busy people to sit at the same table, it can be much more challenging to get a team emotionally centered.  Here are 5 Cool Ideas to get teams started. 

5 Cool Ideas to Get Teams Started 

1.  A meaningful quote can provide solidarity and purpose. 

We know that a picture is worth a thousand words, but what is a word worth?  Well, a word can be invaluable if it helps center a team on a theme.  A special word can unify and educate.  Introduce a word every day and over time, people will increase their vocabularies.  Share a combination of words like a quote or a song lyric to cultivate passion and a sense of team spirit. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you've ever complained that Facebook takes too much time or isn't a high even return-on investment, I have good news and bad news.

The good news is that Google+ is in many ways a better platform.  The bad news is that you want another social media account like you want another hole in your head.

But there are compelling reasons to get involved with G+ right away.

Let's get this party started

Google is a rockin' search engine, so it owns the playing field.  If we were all still kids, Google would own the playing field, the parking lot, the ball, and the air.

So, Google makes sure that G+ integrates across a number of Google products, including Google Buzz and Google Profiles. Try this experiment.  If you have a fairly distinct name and you type it into Google, your Facebook page will probably rank fairly high.  But, if you have a Google profile, it will rank higher than your Facebook page.

Oh, and you probably have a Google profile even if you haven't created one.  Why?  Because Google created one for you.  When I discovered my unadorned Google profile a while back, it ranked higher than the Facebook that had been established for years!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Everyone has the ability to be great.  In fact, greatness is probably the most natural of all achievements.  So why don't more of us achieve greatness?  One reason is that we get in our own way.  Another reason is that we often don't receive the right amount of encouragement.

Here are the top ten excuses for not being great, along with some quick  advice on how you can achieve greatness.

Top 10 excuses for not being great


1. You don’t know how.

Huh? You’re kidding, right? You don’t know how to do something? I have one word for you: Google.

Need a book? Your public library has thousands and you won’t have to wait in line because nobody goes there.

Need tutelage? Hire a coach.

Information is more accessible now than any other point in history and most of it is free. Get good at accessing what you need to know. It’s your ticket to greatness.


2. You don’t know the right people.

As with information, people are more accessible than ever before. Nearly anyone you need to know can be found on Twitter, Facebook, or Linkedin.

Make yourself a little more available and you’re half way there.]]></description>

Women hold more MBAs than men, but are employed in fewer executive positions for far less money. 

The Troy Rotary Club of Michigan, I'm going to be President next year, is honoring Troy business women and women everywhere with its second annual Troy Business Woman of the Year Awards luncheon on Wednesday, October 5.  Detroit-area folks are welcome to attend and nominate.  Here are details.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I once earned a speaking engagement by impressing Roxanne Gibbs, editor of The Nation, a prominent Barbados newspaper.  I first met Roxanne and five of her friends in a banquet buffet line.   Later, she recounted that I remembered all of their names after the meal.

5 Cool Ideas for remembering names

1.  Use a system you can rely on.
People who use a memory device called mnemonics remember Pat’s name because she is wearing purple, but may struggle to recall Pat’s name when she wears brown.  Try to remember a person for who they are, rather than what they wear.]]></description>

Quincy has had an amazing life.  Most people know him as the producer of Michael Jackson's, Thriller, but Q has worked with tons of famous people, including Frank Sinatra, Lesley Gore, Ray Charles, Duke Ellington, Count Basie, and Miles Davis.

Originally a music arranger, Quincy met a lot of musicians before he turned 21 years old.  By most accounts, Quincy took care of his relationships and one friendship led to another and so on, resulting in a lifetime of fruitful collaborations]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Another fabulous Fourth of July weekend is upon us.  Happy Fourth!

This year, we'll blow up scads of fireworks and consume countless burgers and hot dogs--all commodity items that defy much serious expectations. 

So when is a hot dog, not just a hot dog?

When it's an event.

This is because of something called product differentiation.

Product--or service--differentiation can help consumers tell you apart from the competition.   When people appreciate the difference they become interested in doing business with you.]]></description>
