Leaders that don’t listen are a dime a dozen, as the saying goes. Almost everyone has had a boss that does all the talking. I am tired of them, aren’t you? Consequently, most of them are bad bosses. Why don’t they listen? Some don’t care; their internal values aren’t attuned to other people’s situation or needs. Others let their ego get in the way which prevents them from paying attention to other people’s ideas.

A proposal for consulting, advisory, and/or coaching services should be about 2.5 pages and take you 20 minutes to create. That’s because you should already have conceptual agreement with the buyer, and a proposal is a summation of prior agreement, not a negotiation or an exploration. Proposals that go on forever with résumés, photos, and testimonials simply show that there is no trusting relationship with the buyer.

Last week I did a “webinar demo session” on how to send very simple emails to get meetings with prospective clients and those who can lead you to prospective clients.

One of the things I tell my kids (that they hate) is that life isn’t always fair. deal with it. Sure, life should be fair. But, it often is not. Some people die well before their time. That’s not fair. Some people win the DNA lottery whereas others don’t. That’s not fair. Some people get advantages in their career; meanwhile, others don’t. That’s not fair.

Having an admired web site, or a book doing well on Amazon, or a kibillion “likes” on social media may be quite fulfilling. But none of that means a thing if your business isn’t growing. You can’t take “likes” to the bank, and no one pays just to visit your site and download free stuff. I know people without any website making well into seven figures, and one of my own endearing habits is that I tend to irritate people, not be “liked” (“comfo

Most attempts to formulate strategy, in any size business, are a waste of time, because: • The process attempts to look too far into the future in volatile times. • Assumptions are used in place of facts. • The wrong people are included in the process. • The process itself is far too long and convoluted. • The discussion defaults to tactics and “how” to do things, not “what” the organization is to become. • Accountabilities and deadlines aren’t established or honore
