The Risk of Becoming an Expert

    ‘If someone were unhappy with any aspect of your business, would you want to know? You should, because knowledge is power. You can’t correct problems that you don’t know exist. Knowing someone is dissatisfied gives you the opportunity to correct or improve. It empowers you to not only meet the expectations of your customers and employees, but to exceed them. That, in turn, helps you build loyalty. By focusing on improving your business relationships, you can improve your business. The goal is to maintain positive relationships even through confrontation.’

 

Remember me dropping the ball a while back by not responding to a request till it was almost too late. Well here is the published end result.

Thanks to David Day from www.ithinkbigger.com for reaching out to me and connecting with me and getting me to write this article about small business owners confronting conflict.

All I want for Christmas is Progess

Harvard Business Review’s “Breakthrough Ideas for 2010″ is out.  My favorite is #1  What really motivates Workers.   Motivation is what “coaching” in all forms is about at it’s basic level.

The goal is to help someone tap into their inner motivation to help them overcome the obsticle in their path.  Clients want results and results are measured in increments of progress. One step in front of the other. One small goal at a time each one a stepping stone on the path to the larger goal.
