"Rayanne,
Certainly not the way anyone would want to start a weekend. I certainly know the feeling you had as I am sure most readers who have had such "fender benders" do. I had one a few weeks ago but fortunately is was a Ford pickup…"
"I would agree with both Thomas and Martin. My own feeling is that be it a product or a service, people are always prepared to pay a premium for quality."
"I also agree with Sean which is one of the reasons that recruiters are members with us as well as executives. Recruiters want quality candidates and candidates want access to opportunities that are real."
"Alasdair,

The last time I checked there were only 21,185,836 views of this video which should give you some idea of how "tuned in" I am!
The video is part of a series put together by Playing for Change and if you are one of the 21 million plus mentioned above, of course, you already know that.

Three Questions Executives Should Ask for the New Year
Posted on January 29, 2010 at 5:05pm 2 Comments 0 Likes

Leadership Values
Posted on January 13, 2010 at 1:03pm 0 Comments 0 Likes
When the new year begins the lists come out and it's always time to see who views what as "winners", "losers", and/or what's in store for the next twelve months or so.
The other thing that happens, at least for me, is that this time of year makes you think of where things have been, what's changed, and what worked and what didn't. It also makes me… Continue

Cheers!
