Entrepreneur.com just published one of my latest articles. An excerpt:
“Conceptual thinking is a process that simply explores and ponders, just to see if something may precipitate out. It creates a mindset that perpetuates indefinitely and is completely abstract. It doesn’t look for anything concrete; it’s freeform thinking.”

HuffingtonPost.com just published one of my new (very timely) articles. It begins:
“Both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton spent time discussing the loss of American manufacturing jobs in last night’s presidential debate. In a recent trip to the San Francisco Bay area, I met with some Silicon Valley professionals. There seems to be a group consensus regarding manufacturing challenges.
“Though we can bring manufacturing jobs back to America, it’s not as easy as we may think. There are many factors involved. Of course, one problem is that high taxes are driving manufacturing out of America. Certainly, all the regulations and restrictions are another problem. In addition, it’s well known that wages in this country are so high that we can’t compete with foreign companies. But there are a few other challenges that are not quite as well known”…

Entrepreneur.com just published one of my latest articles. It begins:

I published a new article on LinkedIn today. It begins:
“I understand it is traditional in China to not always shop around for the best price. Instead, the focus is more on creating strong, lasting relationships—a solid team. Associate yourself with the right people, and your business will flourish.
“A good team involves two aspects: a professional team and your business team. The professional team involves individuals who are absolutely essential, but not generally worked with on a daily basis. Unless you have a very large business, professional team members will be individuals you consult with, but are not on your payroll. They include an attorney, accountant, and banker”…

Entrepreneur.com just published another one of my new articles. It begins:
“A dear friend got up on stage with me once to address the group. His speech was so dry and stilted that, in short order, the whole audience was squirming in their seats, uncomfortably waiting for him to end. I was aware he had a lot of material to convey, so I knew I had to do something. I took a chance. In a friendly, jovial and joking way, I loudly blurted out, “Boring!” The whole audience burst out laughing, as did my friend. It shifted the whole room, and he started to talk from a more natural and comfortable place. Fortunately, it was a great success”…

Entrepreneur.com just published one of my new articles. It begins:
“Although the word ego often carries a negative connotation – as in egocentric or egotistical – in actuality, the ego has both positive and negative aspects.
“From the positive perspective, ego simply means a solid, healthy and strong sense of self. Ego in this regard is essential in business. To be a powerful force in business means the individual has to be solid and self-reliant. Though a big ego is usually considered to be a negative trait, in fact, the bigger the ego, the better.”
