Bossy Communications

It may seem counter-intuitive, but it is critical that external communication feeds your audience and not you. Never lead with YOU, start by communicating what's in it for THEM.

Hot topic: I believe messaging can get anyone through any interview. Let this be a lesson that you can never out run your past and you should always be prepared with messaging for every interview even if the topic is slated to only cover rainbows and sunshine.

I cannot believe Bill Clinton was unprepared with a Monica Lewinsky question in light of the movement. Shame on his PR and Communications team.

And shame on his co-author James Patterson: "Toward the end, James Patterson jumped in, perhaps hoping to assist his floundering co-author: 'This thing was 20 years ago. Come on. Let’s talk about JFK. Let’s talk about LBJ. Stop already.'”

Time’s Up, Bill Is Bill Clinton the only one who doesn’t realize he needs to join the reckoning?

If the people around you are always agreeing, you're not surrounding yourself with the right people. Healthy tension, dialogue and push back are necessary to achieve unimaginable results and avoid devastating mistakes. It's amazing how many people will go along with an idea because it's easy or they don't want to upset someone--or worse, they're just lazy. Are you surrounding yourself with the right people?

Anyone feel a February slump coming on...time for a pep talk!
