Once you have done it, done it meaning become a business owner. Afterwards it seemed so simple, owning a business, and you think anyone can do this. But can anyone really do this? Start and run your own business? The question seems simple enough to answer, but is the answer right there, in front of you?I like to use analogies and I’m also a big fan of Seinfeld. In one episode, Kramer wants to build levels in his apartment. Jerry, knowing that he will never do it, bets Kramer that he won’t get it done. Kr
Also interesting to note here is the result of a research I read which indicates that an ‘Apollo Team’ defined as the best and most talented people, when assembled in a project execution team will not be the best team you can expect in a project team simply because of the strong ego each team member tends to have and the strong likelihood that such team
By definition, a "work from home" job is a means of employing yourself in the place you live. There are many types of work at home people, (sometimes called WAHM, work at home mom, WAHD, work at home dad, or simply WAHP, work at home person). Some WAHP's report to a major business, some WAHP's report to a boss, but many report to no one.od your screen with--usually--meaningless jargon.These types of WAHP's are a unique sort of freelancer--and being so, they must navigate through the world of scams and rip-offs
Conflicting priorities, unclear expectations and roles, poor leadership, conflicts of interests, poor teamwork or lack of it, and little and no motivation all lead to project failure. Addressing the people management problems we all face as project managers and the best way to do it will require us to at least understand the many types of people we potentially meet and engage in project execution in the work place.
More and more focus is made to understand human work behavior and human personality these days simply because individual character types may be complementary but potentially conflicting to one another too. Most teams must work together to a lesser or greater extent collaboratively in any project execution, organizations, and in work place. If the team organization and operating practices can be constructed taking into consideration each individual’s strengths and weaknesses, this will have a positive influence on the project team with good chances for success.

A limited liability company, commonly called an LLC is a business organization that is a hybrid between partnership or sole proprietorship and corporation. Like owners of partnerships or sole proprietorships, LLC owners account for business profits or losses on their personal income tax returns and the LLC itself is not a separate taxable entity. Like in a corporation, in LLC, all owners are protected from personal liability in case of business debts and claims. This feature is known as "limited liability." This means

Do they think you add value? Do they say you care enough about their business? Do they see you as part of their team? If the answer is maybe, or you don’t know the answer, it’s time to make some changes.Last June the Association of Accounting Marketing held a panel discussion with CEOs to see just what they liked and didn’t like about their CPA firm. The results aren’t surprising but they do serve as a very big reminder that building close relationships with clients is the key to success.Here are a f

Is customer service a department in your company? Is customer service simply the title of an order entry department? Is customer service an empty shell, long on rhetoric but short on delivery? Does the term customer service actually mean anything, or is it a leftover expression from an era of days gone by?Superior customer service is indeed alive and well alive and working at many progressive companies, both large and small. Customer service is not simply a term or a department, but rather an attitude and a ma

How many times have you needed to call for a service such as carpet cleaning? Mechanic service? How about a more serious issue such as a flood service?Did you find that looking through the phone book just doesn’t give enough info and searching online pops up to many unreliable, irrelevant leads? Either way, I personally find it hard at times to find quality, fast reliable service.For instance, I thought word of mouth was the best way to get what I am looking for. So I talked to a friend when my car broke

In my view, we will never have a perfect project team nor should we dream of one, and in fact in most organizations that I have worked with and the many projects I have had privilege to handle, the project teams have almost always been assembled and planned during project proposal preparation stage. Though I may have some say for replacement to those who are no longer available for the project, I still think my only chance to influence the project team is to build one, and together with the team, find a common identity sooner rather than later so I can cultivate the team work culture for all to collaborate to the same and aligned project objectives.
What I also managed to find out and observed in many instances is that nothing causes more friction between project management and line management than poor forward forecasting of the project resource needs. Starting resource requirement has the benefit of time to prepare ahead during and after the proposal prior to start of project execution. But the many turns of events during project execution and the changes in project scope can be an unexpected surprise to meet projects resource requirements.
In order to avoid unnecessary conflict, the project manager and his team must clearly specify their particular resource requirements to the line management at the outset, and keep functional management abreast of changes
