Vote/suggest a new tagline for Leadership Turn

Post from Leadership Turn
As long-term readers know, I’ve changed both the tagline and design of Leadership Turn since I took it over last year—unfortunately, I couldn’t change the name. I say that because neither I, nor anyone I’ve discussed it with, can figure out what it’s supposed to mean. But that’s OK, the world […]

Fun Friday: a business epiphany

Post from Leadership Turn Image credit: zacchaeus
This week we’re supposed to write about “your business epiphany - what one moment influenced your career or business more than any other?”
Epiphanies are funny things. What we think is an epiphany (AKA, an ah-ha!! moment) when it happens may become more mundane in 20/20 hindsight, whereas a […]

FF: Charity: good, bad, ugly

Post from Leadership Turn Image credit: thaney8
When it comes to charity, I’m very opinionated (no surprise there), so I thought I’d take this opportunity to present the good, my favorite charity—that you probably never heard of, and rant a bit about the bad and the ugly—two things that really tick me off.
The Good: I […]

Fun Friday: We’re all different

Post from Leadership Turn Image credit: Darwin Bell
This week our esteemed editor Kelly, AKA, TaxGirl, tossed us a Peter Maher quote instead of a picture for Fun Friday—“Running is a big question mark that’s there each and every day. It asks you, ‘Are you going to be a wimp or are you going to […]

Fun Friday: you tell me

Post from Leadership Turn Image credit: PuffinArt
Another Fun Friday here at the biz channel. Usually we all write about the same picture, but this week we’re each choosing our own.
The media is awash in “leaders,” be they business, political, religious, social, whatever and this guy reminds me of so many of them.
I’m not saying […]

Fun Friday: typical short-term corporate thinking enhances gas pain

Post from Leadership Turn Image credit: JOE M500
I have gas pains, you have gas pains and so we rant.
Rants don’t alleviate gas pain, but they do relieve pressure.
We rant about crude prices and the mean oil producing countries that are more concerned with their own internal economy than with being nice and increasing production.
We […]

Ode to a Chinese boycott

Post from Leadership Turn Image credit: mrbill
Are you tired of the Chinese deficit,
do you want to see less of it?
Are you waiting for the Feds to fix it
when you have the power to nix it?
When you shop to avoid that sin
check the country of origin,
or if you must, buy second hand
at garage sales, […]
