The Effective Executive
What does it mean to be an "effective executive"? Well very simply it means achieving the goals you set out to achieve in an efficient, creative and effortless manner. Some of the benefits that ensue from this self efficacy are: feelings of self confidence, self esteem, self worth, a sense of personal empowerment, feeling invigorated and passionate about everything you choose to do, a sense of resilience, more energy, personal emotional and physical health and for some a great sense of purpose. How much of the time do you feel any or all of these? Surveys I have done over the last several years suggest that most executives feel "effectve", as defined above, only about 30 percent of the time on average. When I learned this I realized how much untapped potential there still is waiting to be unleashed from the business sector. Why is so much potential being wasted? With over 20 years of experence working with such individuals it has become exceedingly clear to me that the biggest problem lies in the ability of such executives to courageously address the many limiting negative beliefs and emotions that they carry around inside of them. Now by "address" I do not mean engaging in some form of psychotherapy. My experience has also shown me that such a journey has significant limitations for individuals who desire immediate results in their lives and work. Additionally "therapy" often assumes that there is something wrong with such individuals. In my view this is not correct. It has been my experience that each of us has enormous potential to be effective and to acheive beyond our wildest dreams. In other words we are individuals with tremendous abilities to achieve. To say anything else is unfortunately a denial of who we all feel we are deep inside. Hence it is with such a recognition that I would like to suggest that the problem is not "with us" but with the negative beliefs and emotions "inside of us" that are limiting us from being all we can be. In recent case studies using a new modality called the Mind Resonance Process(TM) which I developed to address this very problem I have shown that it is entirely possible to completely dissolve such limiting beliefs and emotions from our lives. The results have been nothing but miraculous. To know more you are invited ot visit the web site below.

Careers and Employment Transforming Your Sales Force by Creating Specific Expectations I just finished a phone call with a potential client who had called to discuss a problem. His 18 person sales force was paid on straight commission. All had been with the company for 8 - 15 years and were earning healthy incomes. His problem was that he could not get them to do what he wanted them to do. Here's the example he shared. Want to Increase the Amount of Business that Your Firm is Getting? Business development is important for every business and refers to the action of bringing in customers or clients that are likely to make positive contributions to a company's bottom line. Business Development is all about establishing relevant and subsisting relationships in the market place. How to Keep Projects From Spinning Out Of Control Are you involved in projects that seem to go nowhere in a hurry? Never Trust a Silent Customer Imagine you run a pizza parlour. You have all these neighbourhood families that pop in at least once a week for some pizza, garlic bread and Coke. On an average, one customer spends about $30 per week. But let's assume they spend just $20. Imagine you did something that bugged this customer, but he or she never told you about it. What would you stand to lose if they left? Hire A Six, To Consistently Produce Sales Success For many years as a sales manager, I would only hire the stereotypical sales representative. You know the type-on a human relations continuum or scale of zero to ten, with the ten representing a candidate who is totally gregarious and outgoing and the zero, someone who is introverted with few people skills, I'd always recruit the ten. As an advisor to businesses and professional service firms on how to build an effective sales team, I would also council my clients to hire "tens." Big mistake! What Is A Proposal? And Why Do You Need One? Do you know anyone who regularly wins bids? Or can boast a balanced relationship between doing the hard work of producing proposals and regularly winning the business? How to Sharpen Your Sales Message with Do-it-Yourself Focus Groups - Small Business Power Tools You've probably heard of focus groups. It's a tool that the big guys use to quickly test a new product or service or to get fast feedback from potential customers. Focus groups do not provide real, actionable information but are great for what I call "clue hunting." For example, I once sat through a series of focus groups on a new camera-related product. After three focus groups, we were able to pretty well conclude there wouldn't be much of a market for this particular product, and the idea was dropped. The three focus groups probably cost this advertiser around $5000 vs. the hundreds of thousands of dollars that would have been wasted had they put the product into manufacturing.

Many sales meetings are boring and a waste of salespeople's time, say the majority of salespeople I interview. A review of what's going on in the market is good to know, but to be effective, sales meetings need to be a lot more than that venues for quick market updates.

Instead he sought a perfection that assured failure." - From Empire: The Life, Legend and Madness of Howard Hughes by Donald L. Bartlett & James B. Steel The Four ?D?s of Sales Management Recently I stumbled across some notes that I had kept from a project I had been involved in which involved looking at manager behaviours. The aim of this project was to identify "preferred behaviours" in sales managers when they were working closely with their sales representatives. The outputs were interesting and helped my colleagues identify four main types of sales managers and the differences between effective and ineffective behaviours.
