    Saving Santa - Last Minute Corporate Gift Ideas
    Every smart manager or boss knows good company morale is priceless. They know rewarding clients, customers or employees for their continued patronage or hard work makes good business sense.The holiday season is the perfect occasion where goodwill can help build company spirit and continued patronage.
    There used to be a time when outstanding performance on the job was reinforced, recognized and rewarded by employers. Nowadays, employees are expected to perform “above the line” in terms of their performance. The reward, if any, is the employer’s expectation that the employee should be glad to have a job at all. Sounds pretty cynical doesn’t it?

    Think about it. Oftentimes, good work is rewarded by more work or not rewarded at all. It’s been shown that the reason why most employees quit their job has less to do with money and more because they (employees)perceive their sense of value within the organization is not being recognized.

    Doing a good job and building a reputation as being competent at something means that anytime a similar project surfaces within the organization, you are the one being called. Instead of cultivating others, employers continually “go back to the same well” when it comes to recognizing talent.

    Consider also the employer who professes their selection of project managers is based upon the level to which the employee will be “challenged to grow” by leading the assignment. What a crock! One of the biggest detriments in today’s business practices is the failure of organizations to build in any type of succession plan. More often than not, the employee is being selected because the supervisor has too few others to select from. The decision is not based on the right person for the job, but the one who is perceived by the supervisor as being the most available (or the one who will do the least amount of damage if things go wrong) is the one often selected. Another basis for selection is the “likeability” factor, which I will deal with at another time.

    So what does this mean to the employee who aspires to grow within the organization and to further develop their skills? The answer is: you have to let everyone know your (positive) results and outcomes. Don’t rely upon anyone other than yourself to keep the real movers-and-shakers within the organization informed of your value.

    Socially Responsible Advertising
    Several advertisements lately are pushing social responsibility more than sales. Is it financially feasible for these companies to ask users to reduce usage of their products or just a slight aberration in their advertising game plan? Are companies using these prominently displayed advertisements on billboards merel

    How Do You Market Two Businesses?
    Because I do a lot of networking with very small business owners, I meet a lot of dual business owners. These are people, usually women, who own two businesses (or more).As a solopreneur, your resources are limited – that is, time and mo'ney. Managing and marketing one business is already a full-time job, s
