BUSINESS ADVICE
A business advice summary from what I am reading and learning
Business Advice Posts
Every working person needs business advice. Whether you are in a company, enterprise or start up you can learn from other peoples’ business advice. Now I am not saying I have the answers to everything. What I am saying is that when we learn from other peoples’ business advice then perhaps we get a ‘step up’. A free kick.
I read a lot and go to many seminars and conferences. Part of my entrepreneurial journey is learning from trial and error. There are so many things to learn. For me I write them here in a selection of blog posts so that I can maybe assist others on his or her leadership journey.
It will be difficult for me to know which, if any, of these posts will touch move and inspire you to be a better leader. The thing is with business advice, or any advice for that matter, it only works if you adapt it to your owner circumstances. There is no quick fix. There is no easy way.

What Does The Perfect Work Week Look Like?
Andrew May poses the question ‘What does the perfect week look like?’ Is it an 8 day week? If you had an extra day what would you do with it? Apparently, 63% of Australian workers are sleep deprived. It is much harder to be productive, let alone enjoy what we do if we...

It must be LOVE.
Employer Branding does not mean sticking a uniform on your people and having them parade around wearing your logo. It is not about promotional products, or logo's on trucks. It's about an authentic, real and open conversation that is created spontaneously by...
Marketing 101
Lessons from Marketing 101 Years ago when I ran marketing workshops as part of my previous business I came across the old 1950's print advertisement with the grumpy old man sitting in a chair who says... "I don't know who you are. I don't know your company. I don't...
Listening to customers
