I love matchmaking or should I say connecting people if we are talking in business mode. I love it when 2+2 = 1004! I just love being the + in the middle.

Our first impressions of people we meet really count in business – those first few seconds can make or break a future business relationship. Here's a cautionary tale.....

Recruiting staff is tough; really tough. Can these potential employees really do what they say they can? Will they fit into your team? Will they stay, and for how long? Do they really buy into your vision?

Most of the business owners I work with want to sell their business, for lots of money and retire. Family businesses generally have a different agenda but whatever your goal you need to build value in your business.

Right, here it comes... We are really bad at solving problems, aren’t we? Because if we were any good at it we wouldn't still be solving the same problems that we had last week, last month or last year.
