I’m fascinated by the evolution of work and our changing demography.
We often get so stuck in our own head that we forget to look up at the horizon.
And the horizon is shifting.
Individuals and families are making changes to their lives to counter the impact of evolution.
I thought it might be useful to explore some examples of change and the needs/opportunities that result.
Social media was hailed as a game-changer for business.
The ability to start a conversation with your customers and your target market was promoted as a new nirvana.
The further ability to use social media for highly targeted advertising saw a plethora of social media consultants promoting a suite of services.
Meetings get a bad rap.
There’s typically plenty of meetings held in most businesses and it’s easy to feel like they block our ability to get the real work done.
But I’m a big fan of meetings when they are done properly.
Meetings are the lubricant that get things done.
In this blog, I outline how to make meetings meaningful through how to create a meeting regime that works for you.
The economy has certainly been on the minds of busy owners in recent years.
So, I thought it might be useful to share my observations on where the Australian economy is at.
I’m fortunate to see different business owners in diverse industries each day which I like to think of as rolling R&D.
Here’s my take on the local economy based on my experience and the observations shared by many business owners.
Understanding the Age we live in can help you be adaptive in business.
The 18th Century was the Agricultural Age where Farmers ruled and owners of fertile land were prosperous.
The 19th century was the Industrial Age where factory work boomed and owners of factories made fortunes.
The 20th century was the Information Age where Knowledge workers reigned supreme. Billions were made by Founders of IT companies, many much younger than their forebears.
The 21st Century is the Conceptual Age – the age of Creators.
