Our company was designed to offer clients quick & professional feedback, but I preferred to think of our team as mentors. Ideas that become a reality require on-going consulting and coaching. We found great joy in helping businesses succeed and grow.
While browsing through Michael J. Freeman’s Leadership Knowledge Base, I found the following characteristics of a good mentor, which can be used as a guideline to select mentors.
A great idea provides a solution to a problem. A great idea exploits an opportunity. A great idea has a profitable market. But what happens when your idea just isn’t enough?
While stressing to get a project done, often times you may only focus on how to improve the negative, rather then reward the positive. Be it employees, team members, or customers, people want to be appreciated for their efforts.
Woke up this morning to a lovely surprise – XYDO went public. Even in my half-asleep state, I felt extremely proud, which I dare compare to a child taking their first steps.
Founders, Eric Roach and Cameron Brain, saw an opportunity and executed. Unlike similar news feeds, XYDO provides us with socially endorsed news, from the people we trust.
I recently listened to a Mixergy interview with Seth Godin about communities and tribes. Below are of a few great concepts that stood out.
Building a community involves creating a place where people can connect with one another. However, the community must also have a purpose, and you must communicate that core mission to your tribe. The tribe is simply a tactic to drive change. Our mission is to provide you with professional feedback, and the greater purpose is to ensure innovative ideas are executed successfully.
