    I write this blog. It does not represent anyone else's opinions or perspectives. Regardless of employers or clients or any other associations, this is my blog and it does not speak for anyone else. I have learned that perception is more powerful than reality. So, we get to experience the joys of claiming and disclaiming. Isn't that super!

leadership

As I venture through new challenges in life, I am constantly aware of the leadership that is around me, that I am following and I am even aware of people who look at me for leadership.  Leaders are human and make mistakes.  That has often been one thing that has endeared me to the leaders that I am following…  Great [...]

Apple is evil.  –>  Apple rocks!  I love my MacBook Air.  I love my iPhone.  Good customer service goes a LONG way!  Great customer service breads loyalty.
Anthony Bourdain is stupid.  –>  Anthony Bourdain rules!  No Reservations kicks butt.  Kitchen Confidential sparked all sorts of creativity.  Writing and reading things that stretch my horizons is healthy [...]

AMEN!!!

The application form would be easily completed within a short period of time.
The job requirements would ask for what is truly required to do the job.
No one would be invited to interview for a job that is already filled.

I found this video via this post.
It’s particularly interesting to me because I just had a discussion with a good friend.  That discussion was directly about this topic and how we have different viewpoints and different aspects of this topic in our lives.
