Why Excel Is The Perfect Tool For

Motivation!

Well to be more clear, any type of spreadsheet software will work.  When you use a spreadsheet to calculate target goals, you can measure results by day, week, month, year, and 5 year increments like this:

Here is a copy you can edit or you can download the Sales Target Breakdown Sheet in Excel format.

Be What You Want Your Team To Be

As children we didn’t understand the phrase “Do as I say, not as I do” so why do we think it works now?  If you are looking for lasting change in your team, lead from the front.  Set the example in your team that you want to see.  I’ve learned most of what I know from watching successful people act it out.  We only retain a small portion of what people speak to us, yet repeated life examples from others stick with us, both good and bad.

In business there are many critical areas to be focused on.

Each one gave me a very clear feeling at the end of a short time and it reminded me of how important the customer’s experience is when interacting with any business. . . . → Read More: Customer Experience

Working Towards Success

Have you ever sat back and wondered: Why don’t I feel like I am successful right now?  Why don’t I feel as accomplished as some of my colleagues appear to be feeling?  With those thoughts in mind yesterday night, I decided to go talk to my business coach, a man who has spent time consulting with me and helping me for many years now.  I just didn’t know why I was feeling like I hadn’t succeed even though I knew I was striving with all I had.
