Slip Sliding Away

Slip Sliding Away

Sunday is the day I like to have a think about the week past and the week ahead. I had yet another of my Monday morning conversations with someone.

I Don’t Shine if you Don’t Shine

I Don’t Shine if you Don’t Shine

I've been thinking about writing about Shine Theory for some time and my amazing, beautiful friend Sady wrote about a similar thing today on her blog so it seemed like today should be the day!

Listening but Not Hearing

Listening but Not Hearing

I have worked in Sales & Marketing in real life nearly my entire working life and one of the first things I was taught, practically on day one, was the phrase "You have two ears and one mouth, use them in that proportion" Salespeople are often referred to as having the 'gift of the gab' [...]
