'While building a customer base, businesses sometimes move too quickly and focus on quantity rather than quality. Just as organizations experience turnover in their employee ranks, turnover occurs in the customer base as well. The extent to which both occur has a significant influence on your bottom line.

'Employee morale is a fuzzy issue at best. Measuring morale can be difficult and inconclusive since employees will often not reveal their true feelings. But make no mistake about it.

CNN thought its biggest threat was FOX News. It was wrong. The competition is Twitter , and the competition is winning. In 1980, CNN went live as America's first all-news TV network.

I live in CA. I worked for a small business owner for two plus years. Just recently I gave him two weeks notice in writing. He asked me to stay and stay and stay longer and I said “okay”. That meant that I would be working for him for at least three or four more weeks, maybe more. The next work day, he told me that I did not need to come back and after the close of business I did not come back to work.

'I''ve written several posts about how a good manager puts the ''manage'' into performance management. I think we can all agree that the manager plays an important role but what does that actually mean when push comes to shove? If there were a cut and dried formula for good management someone would bottle and sell it. There isn''t. While there are definitely some wise guiding princples, different styles and techniques work best for different people.

Most CIOs I talk to want to spend more time on strategy--not platform strategy or application strategy, but business strategy. The fun part of their job isn't about keeping the lights on or the servers cooled. It's about using technology to fundamentally improve the way their companies do business. Strategic relevance can be a sore spot for CIOs. Although most line managers agree in principle that IT is strategically important, CIOs still struggle for a seat at the strategy table.
