Opportunity Breeds Success

opportunity
January 11, 2017 Nature vs. Nurture?The on-going discussion: the naturally-gifted vs. the manufactured.  Are those who are naturally talented less likely to work hard to achieve success?  Does hard work drive success, whether you are talented or not?  I have often stated, “Hard work pays off. Always.” But does it really? How about the kid who studies her heart out to maintain a C+ average versus the one who never studies and maintains a 4.0 or better?  I grew up with kids like both representations. Personally, I endlessly studied and in my case, the hard work paid off with good grades. But was it my natural inclination toward the subjects I studied - those I selected or was it the hard work which resulted in good grades?We can argue incessantly about how success is achieved.  But I think Winston Churchill said it best,…

Synergy and Strength: Finding the Balance

Synergy
January 5, 2017 “Synergy... it creates new untapped alternatives; it values and exploits the mental, emotional, and psychological differences between people.” ~Stephen CoveyThe TeamBeing a part of a team can be a wonderful, exhilarating, delightful, excruciating, debilitating, and/or harrowing experience. Navigating the roads to a successful internal partnership can be dangerous and filled with trepidation that must often be cajoled with tenacity. But without the stubbornness that must be honed as business partners/owners, we may become nothing more than corporate doormats; laid out for all to wipe their feet on.Weakness or Strength?I have been in numerous meetings which have resulted in, “I told you so” moments. I'm sure we all have. One meeting in particular?  It wasn’t actually said out loud but it was felt by all in the room.Knowing when to utilize strength in an office setting or on a team can…

The Wave of Consistent Technology Development

the wave pf technology development
June 20, 2016 Did You Catch the Wave?Do you even remember it?  Six years ago,  Google gave WAVE a proper goodbye. I never did ride the Google Wave; I think I tried it once, but it held no appeal. I could see that in order for it to truly work and work well, practically everyone had to use it, and often. This type of participation early on is impossible today. Not everyone is an early adopter and, apparently not even being a Google product could save the Wave.Technology TodayTechnology, on the back-end, becomes complicated by the hour, by the minute.  And this is all in an effort to present to you and I - the users of technology - an opportunity to actually use it with ease. The more intuitive and easy it is to use, the more complicated the technology, typically.And while I love technology and…

Testing the Waters: Understanding the Customer

undertsanding the customer
June 10, 2016 What We Do and Understanding the CustomerTesting the waters, as a marketer, can be tenuous. Depending on marketing campaigns, we run the risk of boring our intended audience or annoying them. Over the years, I have come to understand that each effort can be a good effort, as it may reach just the person it was intended to reach. But, there is also the risk of over-saturation. The most important thing, for me, as a marketer and as someone who truly believes in our product and cares about our company, is to know the customer.Knowing the Customer - YOUR CustomerIt isn't enough to know who the customer is - their name, rank, and serial number. It isn't enough to know what they do. It isn't nearly enough to know what our competitors do when it comes to their own marketing…

Software and Customer Service

customer service
June 3, 2016 Customer Service Today - a phantomMy colleague Matt, a sales director here at Dovetail, recently wrote about customer service on our HR blog - this is something I find myself more and more concerned with as we continue to move from a manual society to all-things automated or computer-related. As a customer, are your needs truly met - do you feel like you are listened to? Do you want more? Have you come to expect less?Expecting LessI think this is where we are today. We have come a place where poor customer service is the norm. Where the client is only listened to when they threaten public shaming or when they actually go to a public forum like Twitter or Yelp to describe their poor experience. How sad that it has come to this. How sad that the days of…
