I just kicked off Phase 2 of The Corporate Radical Project. We’re going dark for an extended period of time. Phase 3 will be big… But you’re going to have to wait until Phase 2 is finished… It’ll be a while. If you have questions, Contact Me.
It puts you at risk; your credibility, your job, your future. It puts you at risk of losing these three things. So why do it? Why put some of the most important things in your life at risk? Because they won’t change unless you do. Your credibility will never improve if you don’t take the risk, your career will never progress if you don’t take the risk, and your future will never become reality if you don’t stick your neck … →
With the relaunch of this project I removed the commenting functionality of this website. I made this change for one important reason… You, like me, are a do-er. This project’s most loyal followers are in the business of getting things done, that really matter… And frankly, blog comments don’t really matter. Sure, I received a fair amount of comments (mainly from other bloggers), but the core audience of this site wasn’t commenting. I’m the same way… On an given … →
After a 3 month hiatus from any writing… I’m back. Re-energized with new ideas, a renewed focus, and big plans for The Corporate Radical Project. Yes, this is a relaunch post… And I’ve answered four of the most important questions I received during my time away. Why haven’t you been writing? Burn out. The original focus of Corporate Radical was to make money, but that pulled me in a direction that I didn’t always feel good about. It required … →
I used to be terrified of asking questions; what if my boss thought I was dumb, what if the question had been asked a thousand times, what if the question demonstrates to my employees that I don’t know what I’m doing? Valid concerns… But when you watch the corporate world’s best leaders, they ask questions… Lots of them. This is part of the reason many of you have told me you’re scared of giving presentations, you don’t want to come up … →
The money… The time… The commitment… Getting your MBA is a big deal. Especially if you’re working full-time while attempting to complete it… Like I did. I’d love to be able to tell you No, it’s not worth the money or the time, and to put that energy toward other things. But I can’t, because it is worth your money, your time, and the stress you’re going to experience while completing it. Here’s why… We’ll get the obvious thing out of … →
Did you read my post back in January on how important sleep is and how to get more of it? If you haven’t implemented the 21-day plan I outlined in that post then maybe this will help. Tony Schwartz, author of The Way We’re Working Isn’t Working and CEO of The Energy Project, wrote an article on the Harvard Business Review blog about how sleep is more important to our health and professional performance than food. The beginning of Tony’s article … →
Business owners have major skin in the game… So do many public-company executives. But there’s a difference between the two that greatly affects how they make decisions, how they think, and the responsibility they place on themselves. Business Owner = Parent Let’s look at the owner first. I like to think of business owners as parents, they’re personally responsible for the health of their child (the company) and they take their job very seriously… Because if they don’t, they risk … →
So a big part of my blogging gig is to drive traffic to this website. Part of that process is defining the specific keywords and phrases that you, the reader, will be searching for to find this type of content. My favorite tool for this purpose is Market Samurai, and I use it often… But we aren’t talking about the tool here, you can find out about them on their website. Here we’re talking about unsolicited customer service. So Market … →
