Act Like You Mean Business Review

CEO Blog

A book review : "I'm Helping Build a Cathedral" I read an entertaining and useful book over the weekend on communicating - Act like You Mean Business - Essential Communication Lessons from Stage and Screen by Rob Biensenbach. The author is an actor turned communications strategist. Where these two roads of his life intersect, he's written a book in which he creatively applies techniques from the theater to communicating off stage.

Best Business Book to Buy this year

CEO Blog

My grandson, Josh, is doing great. No longer premature. Growing. Photo of Joshua and his beautiful aunt Laura. I do have some concern that he might be trying to hone in on my business deals though. Perhaps it is the way he dresses. + My current pet peeve is technology that does not add value. My current frustration is logging into a wireless network in an airport lounge.

Philadelphia Marathon Weekend 2011

CEO Blog

I ran a half marathon(21.1 Km) in Philadelphia today. It was a good day. The race started at 7. Sunrise was 6:50. I used a new anti chafe cream that worked great. No chafing which is good. I like the race culture and the people who race. Good camaraderie. I arrived at the starting corrals at about 6 - about a mile walk from the hotel. There was already quite a crowd.

Speed Reading, Steve Jobs etc

CEO Blog

The garden continues to be prolific (despite snow a couple of weeks ago). The carrots could not be sweeter. Leeks are great. Parsley has even come back strong. The picture of an orange (I did not grow that), an Apple (also did not grow it) and a tiny but cute pumpkin(that I did grow). + A friend recently suggested that we have a reading speed contest.

Eat More Kale

CEO Blog

I love early mornings. There are so many things I like to do (work out, journal, occasionally blog) and I seem to be more productive then. The problem is I also like late nights and the two do not mix well. I believe in protecting intellectual property. I encourage all my companies to have good processes in place to keep things a trade secret or patent them.
