Going Green Makes Good Business Sense

I am currently working with a small start-up company with in the UK in the green sector.
Check out www.candelaslighting.com for details.
They are innovative and responsive to the customer and have designed and delivered some high value solutions to the sectors they work in.
What I like about them is that it is a green company that makes good business sense.
It is creating costsavings while solving problems for the customer. This is how green entrepreneurship should be. Making good business sense and not relying onthe will of people to go green.
There is hope for the planet yet!!

Self Help Guide On How To Be Miserable

Part 1. Think of bad news as an opportunity to ride a wave

When there is a crisis like the current economic crisis. Become a spokesperson for doom and gloom. Enjoy the ability to wallow in the feeling of doom with others. Try to “Out-doom” them with stories about how bad things really are. Remember everything is a perception and if you create a perception of massive doom it is like a self professing prophesy. Your stories don’t even have to be true. They just have to be good stories. They can be dreams, authenticated by statements such as, “I am psychic and my dreams are a window to the future”.

He often has a feeling of not knowing exactly where he is going but is excited and inspired about what he is doing and confident it will lead him where he needs to be.
How you define success is important. What advice would you give on defining success?

New York Leadership Program

Just back from a trip to New York city where I had the opportunity to work with some of the best talent the USA has to offer. It is inspiring to see the downturn being turned upside down and shaken by youthful enthusiasm, belief and hard work. I was working for GDS International who deliver industry leading summits that are bucking the trend and thriving in this environment. It was a case of young dogs teaching an old dog some new tricks!
