Most organizations have some sort of performance measurement system in place, whether it’s a formal system or a more informal one. But what do you measure and why do you measure it? In many informal systems it’s more of a process of collecting data to justify making a desired change or to get rid of someone than a performance measurement system. Many formal performance measurement systems are very sophisticated in their capture of data and reporting of results, but that’s it. These organizations seem to be in the business of performing measurements.

The Royal Bank of Canada’s Mortgage website has tips for selling your own home. They do point out all the money that can be saved selling privately and they also mention “pitfalls” to selling your own home.
ByTheOwner.com thinks it’s great that Canada’s Largest Bank has discussed selling privately on their website. However, we do have some suggestions on how they can improve this section of their site…
1) They mention that you “probably want to engage the expertise of a notary or real estate lawyer.” ByTheOwner would suggest that this is a “definite” as opposed to a “probably.” Calling a lawyer is the first step in our guide.

“How can I get the most from my employees?” This is a universal question that I hear a lot. Business leaders don’t necessarily know how to motivate their employees to be their most productive and effective selves.
I’d be lying if I told you there was one easy answer…but you probably already knew there wasn’t!
The people in an organization are driven by the written, and more often unwritten, rules about behavior – what is and isn’t acceptable, what is and isn’t noticed, what is and isn’t rewarded, what is and isn’t valued by management, and what they can and can’t get away with. These “rules” create the driving force within an organization – the “organizational culture”.

Business owners go to great lengths to select the ideal names for their business. They know that a name plays a key role in creating a first impression about the business, and is an important consideration in making that impression both positive and memorable.
There’s a visual first impression that’s every bit as important as the verbal message delivered by the name. A company’s logo is a unique symbol that identifies a business or other organization. It represents the business in advertising, on wearables, on signs, and in every other way the business connects with key stakeholders. As people become familiar with the logo, they associate it with the company’s characteristics.

I admit it I am somewhat of a MLM news junkie. If you read any of the forums you have may have heard about the uproar between Barry Minkow of Fraud Discovery Institute (FDI) and Usana Health Sciences. I won’t get into all the legal filings, of which there are plenty, but I thought this was an interesting story to discuss for a bit.
You see, Barry likes to go after Network Marketing companies. This time he has chosen Usana Health Sciences as his target. Of course Usana has fired back, and the court battle is ensuing.

And it has to be the right kind of affinity. I may love American Idol and Randy Jackson, but if I don’t have a cat then his recent endorsement in 9Lives advertising isn’t likely to convince me to buy a bag of dry cat food.
