A Culture of Discipline - A "culture of discipline" is a phrase used by Jim Collins (Good to Great) in his study of great companies. All of the great companies, those that far outperform others, have a culture of discipline. This does not mean that they spend their time disciplining people.

Retaining Employees and Customers Is a Family Affair - "The more things change, the more things remain the same." As e-mail, voice mail, and technology allow people to conduct business without ever seeing each other, the competitive edge can very well be the re-creation of conversation- specifically conversation that allows people to feel a "family" connection. It's a connection that recalls the fact that commerce was traditionally an intimate affair. My great-grandfather started a shoe store, the first account Florsheim shoes ever had.

Coaching is no longer reserved to sports teams; Prevent Medical Errors: Find Hidden Clues in Your Medical Tests and Procedures - "Look at this!" I said as I reviewed the copy of my husband's chart after his discharge from the hospital. " Here is a copy of your blood chemistry test results done a year ago.
