Top
10 Blogger Award
I am honored to be recognized as a Top 10
Blogger by Toolbox for HR. They determined this by the number of people
reading all of the blog postings and mine was in the top 10.
Also, in November and December 2009,
bloggers from Toolbox for HR, Toolbox for Finance, and Toolbox for IT
had the opportunity to participate in the 2009 Blogger Derby.
Contestants were asked to submit blog posts focused on three themes and
were judged by a Toolbox.com bloggers committee.
My entry, "Leadership Lesson
from Brunei" won 3rd place in the category "What was your
most inspirational workplace story during 2009?"

Customer
Service Delight Exemplars
Every once in a while I come across customer service providers who "get
it" -- they do something that sets them apart by doing something a
little extra.

the Trader Joe's cashier, Sofitel housekeeper and Brazilian Burger King
did to delight their customers. |
Could
You Use Adult Supervision?
We all have areas of weaknesses. Instead of
struggling with critical areas where you've not yet been successful,
you need to admit it. Surrender. Realize you currently don't
have the skills or judgment to be
left to your own devices.
This is easy when it comes to things like car repair, complicated
taxes, legal issues, and even computer upgrades. You know you're out of
your league and think nothing of hiring a specialist.
Find out how to
enlist help on areas you know you could do better.

Ending
Your Presentation on Time Shows Professionalism and Respect
In the world of professional speaking, not
ending when your client has told you to end is a big sin. Yet it is
rampant among non-professionals.
This is seen as a sign of arrogance. People
feel it says that you think you are more important than the schedule
the meeting organizer has painstakingly crafted. It means the audience
will have less time for breaks, or that someone else will have to cut
their presentation to accommodate your inconsideration.
If you haven't taken your presentation
seriously enough to time it, you're being disrespectful of your
audience and the meeting organizer.

New
Dates for the "Get It Done Program"
My new "Get It Done Program" was launched this year to help people vet
ideas they hear from teleseminars, webinars, conventions, and seminars.
Most people get excited about a concept but have no idea if it will
work for them, if it fits their strategies, and how to implement it. I
take the role of Chief Noodler to think through their ideas and come up
with a viable action plan. I meet with a small group (generally 6
people) for two days and help them suss it out. There is no lecture,
except explaining whatever info they need in context of their desired
projects.
Attendees get the 2-day small group kickoff, 1-on-1 monthly coaching
with me to help them move forward and a monthly group
mastermind/coaching call. During our 6 months working together, I
helped one man who worked on his book
manuscript for 13 years and then got stuck on what to
do next. By the end of our 6 months, he had his printed
book in hand and I've been working with him on marketing strategies and
tactics which has enabled him to sell lots!

Customer
Service Bullies
I overheard a friend talking to a customer
service rep on the phone. He briefly explained the problem he was
experiencing and the rep responded. He went ballistic, raising his
voice telling her that the solution she suggested was stupid and why.
His voice got louder and his language more accusatory, sprinkled with
cursing.
I had to leave the room.
Read why he justified
his behavior and what I did about it.
