There are two important concepts in the six-word title of this post. If you agree with both, you are eager to read. If you don’t, perhaps you need what follows even more.

When I started researching and working on this Remarkable TV episode, I discovered that like much of our language, the meaning of the words ‘politically correct’ have changed over time – leading people to have very different opinions on the meaning of the words. And given this, I don’t think that they are very effective […].

“Without trust, we don’t truly collaborate; we merely coordinate, or at best, cooperate. It is the trust that transforms a group of people into a team.”. Stephen M.R Covey. Trust in the workplace is like a currency, which is exchanged- given and received. And like all currencies, it can be converted into some real-world values with employee engagement and increased productivity.

Dear readers, I’ve only been writing sporadically recently on here — mostly because I’m working on a new book project (more to come soon on that!!) which has been taking all my time.

Handling specific sales situations well becomes a test of sales experience, resilience, and creativity. Gartner research found that 53% of customer loyalty is driven by the sales experience — more so than by the brand, product, service and price combined.

You know what’s more difficult than finding top talent ? Retaining them. Employee turnover is an issue for all organizations, especially for small businesses or startups.

The How Work Gets Done vs. the What Gets Done at Your Company. Every company has their version of what matters most in terms of HOW people behave and WHAT value they produce. In some “win-at-all cost” cultures like Oracle or those climbing Mt. Everest who are willing to walk over a dying person to summit, the WHAT is far more important and far more rewarded than the HOW.
