Level up Your Leadership

Where would you rank amongst the greatest generals of history? Are you a Napoleon or are you more of a Custer?

Punctuated Progress

Punctuated Progress

I really believe in the power of incremental progress. It’s one of my company values. It’s the name of my weekly show (Wednesdays at 11:45 am Mountain Time on Facebook).

Itemize Function

Itemize Function

Instead of trying to fit people into these abstract boxes you call “job descriptions,” you should itemize the functional processes and accountabilities that actually exist in your business.

RUFF-HOUSING

If you love dogs and you love drama, you’ll love this episode. I guess you could say that Daily Genius has gone to the dogs. Please watch the video before I have to think up more dog puns. It’s making me feel boneheaded.

One Free Radical

One Free Radical

The only bad decision is one made without all the data present. That puts business owners in a pretty tough situation. As their organizations grow in size, they become fantastically complicated.
