Some time ago, a new boy came to the neighborhood and Louie was not happy. Life was going along just fine for Louie. Everybody loved him and he thoroughly enjoyed greeting neighbors. Then Mac came along—five pounds of white fluff and super power energy. Everyone thought he was adorable… except Lou. At first, Louie was okay with the idea of a new dog in town.

It sounds like the last profession an introvert would want to pursue or would be successful in.

When a prospect invites you to present your consulting firm’s capabilities, you know you’ll walk into an uber high-potential meeting. Your prospect is already aware of her need and wants to solve it.

In my industry, the workload can often be a bit intense. While it’s not always, or even regularly, the case, there has been a fair share of late nights. Deadlines and client expectations shift, and sometimes you have to stay a couple of hours late for the good of both the company and your team. Despite those late nights, I actually have fun when I’m working, even when I’m working late.

The famous Stanley Milgram experiment highlighted how authority figures can prompt people to give excessive punishments to people, even when the subject was clearly in considerable distress. New research from Brown University explores whether our peers can have a similar impact. The researchers conducted a number of experiments with several hundred participants, all looking to explore how our peers influence our willingness to punish other people for misdemeanors of varying severity.

Charter schools have a mixed reputation, with advocates believing they are vital to help innovation flourish, which in turn helps standards rise as those innovations spread throughout the school network. While that may have merit, new research from the University of Rochester suggests it’s far from guaranteed. The researchers wanted to explore whether particular types of schools seemed to disseminate innovation more effectively.

Be decisive A manager who can't make a decision or who can't make a timely decision will frustrate his/her employees. Equally bad, a lack of decision will impede the progress of the manager's team. Some managers make endless requests for data as a way to postpone their having to make a decision. Employees end up spinning in circles, slicing and dicing the information far beyond what is truly needed for the manager to make a decision.

For most of the six hours I was conducting the seminar, I had an attendee in the third row who mostly stared at the ceiling with his mouth partially open. It distracted me greatly and made me a little crazy. After all, if he thought the seminar was that bad, couldn’t he at last have pretended to be interested. So at the end of the day when I saw him making his way to me, I expected the worst.

T HE STORY GOES that the idea for Netflix came to Reed Hastings after he was hit with a $40 late fee when he returned his rental of Apollo 13 to Blockbuster. Annoyed, he thought, “What if there were no late fees?” And wham, the idea for Netflix was born. Of course, we like stories like that. It’s neat and clean, but in this case, it’s not true. It’s useful though, and it captures in a paragraph the essence of what Netflix is all about.

I entered ministry after a long career in the business world. I had significant life and leadership experience, but honestly, some of it was learned through tremendously painful experiences. Not only did I not have the pedigree of most pastors, it was actually following a sizable business loss when God called me into ministry. We sold a business mostly to get out from under the pressure of it and basically started over financially.
