I don’t feel like I’m on top of my business anymore.”“You’re not alone,” I replied. “I hear that same refrain from many business owners in spite of our booming economy and low interest rates. All that good cheer does little to pacify a business that’s struggling to make ends meet. Do you know why sales are slipping?”“If I knew I could adjust my strategy but I can’t identify the root cause. That’s what’s frustrating me.”•
All these people work for big companies with well-known CEOs. The business press trumpets the importance of CEOs and their innovative strategies. They rarely talk about the managers, first-line supervisors and sales managers down in the trenches.

Which boss can make your day?
Tom's boss, Frank, is a little moody. Actually, he's very moody. Tom and his colleagues joke that they really need a weather channel that will warn them of boss storms before they hit.
When Frank is in a bad mood, everybody seems to catch it. The same thing happens when Frank shows up in a good mood. As one of Tom's friends put it, "When it rains on Frank, we all get wet."

Double-entry Bookkeeping is one of the standard accounting practices for recording financial transactions. Five hundred years ago it was codified for the first time by Luca Pacioli.The conceptual framework is that a business can be described by a number of different accounts, each describing an aspect of the business in monetary terms. Every transaction in double-entry Bookkeeping has a dual effect; for example, buying machinery means losing cash but gaining the monetary value of the machinery.Double-entry Bookkeeping works on the principle that assets are the s

James S., from Las Vegas, N.V. asks, “I am very interested in starting a business, but just don’t want to put any of my property up for collateral due to some legal issues I have with my X-wife. I have a fairly good credit rating. Is there any way I could get an unsecured loan for my business start-up?”Many people thinking about going into business often think only of a bank for a business loan, and do not even consider all of the other options such as an unsecured loan. But all loan options should be considered when you are deciding how to finance your business

It's annual performance appraisal time at Glenna's factory, but she's not worried. Glenna likes her supervisor, Rick, because he's constantly around her and the other workers, correcting performance that needs it, and praising good performance. There won't be any surprises on Glenna's review.
But she's still nervous. Rumor has it that the CEO is going to limit merit raises this year.
She needs to ask Rick about that because, based on her work this last year, she expects to be at the top of the chart come raise time. But she's happy with the way Rick hands out other awards like desirable assignments so the factory will still be a great place to work no matter what the formal policy is on raises.
How is it for you? Who makes the decisions that affect your paycheck? Who's more important here, the CEO or your direct boss?
