The adage that nothing happens until the sale occurs is as accurate today as it has ever been. If the success of a business or a professional career is so directly dependent on the transfer of goods and services for revenue, then it only makes sense that a business culture must have a foundation in sales culture. Sales is not a bad word and needs to be part of all team members’ understanding.
We have reached the middle of July 2024, and summertime is well in motion. The days are longer and hotter, and the evenings give us the opportunity to relax around the picnic table or barbeque. All of these are great things to distract us from the grind of the workday. During this same time,

When an organization embraces culture as the foundation of its business practices, it sets the stage for hiring individuals who best align with the culture offered.

The marketplace is filled with any number of product and service providers, all touting their brands to win consumers’ dollars. Does the brand represent its culture in the marketplace, or does it simply promote what it wants the marketplace to think about it?

Tomorrow, we commemorate the United States Declaration of Independence, a pivotal historical moment requiring immense courage, faith, and perseverance. Our forefathers, at that time, had a strong sense of their actions’ significance, yet they might not have fully grasped the profound impact it would have on them, their families, and their colleagues.

With the 4th of July holiday a couple of days away, the word Freedom echoes around the country. It is a very important time to take a strong look at what freedom is and what it is not. Freedom is not the ability to have each, and every person do whatever they want whenever they want to do it. Freedom comes with responsibilities and discipline.

Freedom should not be based on one person or group of people’s selective views. It needs to stand the test of time and be ready to be tested and evolve when appropriate, but not based on subcultural desires. Our current freedoms cannot be taken for granted as they can and will be taken away if “We the People” are not careful with how we use our freedoms.
