May you feel the light of the season. May you feel the joy that wants to escape from the commercialism, and may it make you smile. May you make deep, real and significant connections – even with strangers – because as humans it’s what we crave to do. May…
The holidays are upon us – dozens of them in December alone! No matter which holidays you celebrate, no matter whether you love ‘em or could leave ‘em, they are here. Along with twinkling lights, ancient rituals and super sales, for most people the holidays bring more stress. End of year budgets are due,…
I was thrilled when I was invited to be on the Soul of Business Podcast : www.consciousmarketer.com/show17 That’s because every business has a Soul. Every business has a spirit. You can feel it. You can see it. And in some cases you can smell it. I was once visiting a potential joint venture…
The curious tale of a funny little book. A long time ago I had this very cool assignment. I was part of a team of people who transformed the culture of steamship company. A big one. A new young and bold CEO by the name of Christopher had taken charge and wanted to…
Talk about feeling proud! (Yes, we all need that feeling.) Over the last week I’ve had several opportunities to talk to people who have attended a customized program I created for the company they work for.

Everyone is concerned about happy customers, happy employees and what they bring – LOYALTY. So what’s loyalty? Is it just longevity? Repeat business? Referrals? It’s way more than that – it’s a combination…
I want to give you some positive feedback for the Customer Care Coach. This format is working well for me and my staff. I’ve have been surprised at how receptive and engaged the staff have been with the activities. I am receiving a lot more positive feedback regarding patient and staff experiences from the staff. I am happy to feel more connection to my staff. I am also relieved and delighted that the preparation is minimal and doesn’t take up a lot of valuable time.
Thank you.
