    What an interesting few weeks I've just had! Two or three weekends ago I spoke to a group of 30-40 pharmacists - and what lovely people they were. With the changes that have been recently been introduced by the NHS in England, the timing for what I had to say was perfect and I'm hoping to work some more with them in the future. I have just returned from another visit to Singapore - principally to run a one-day workshop for 40 clients of a top international private bank - I worked with some of the nicest, most engaging young people you could ever meet. Whilst I was there I also presented to a group of a hundred, generally, small business people and got a tremendous response.

    In between times I've been working with long-term clients in Bolton - helping them with their strategic direction. They are a group of companies who are outstanding in the business of bed linen, hosiery and branded underwear - and I've been working with two of the brothers and now a cousin - all great people to be around. I've also been spending time carrying out the first round interviews in the search for a Sales and Marketing Director (see below for my new CD on recruiting!) for a very forward thinking company with whom I am a Non-Executive Director and whose business is the treatment of breathable gases, and where we are also in the early stages of setting up a Shanghai operation. Furthermore they have just been awarded the highly prestigous Queen's Award for Enterprise.

    I feel privileged to be allowed to contribute to the development of such fascinating and diverse businesses and to continually meet with such interesting people - it's what makes my job is so rewarding.

    Thank you Clients everywhere!

    PS. This is me and my book with the famous Raffles doorman Swaran Singh!

    'What is the single biggest factor that you believe will inhibit your sustained profitable growth into the future?' - and got a surprising response!

    london olympics Have you ever thought about.......how to change your life?

    • Be crystal clear about your own life purpose. You have to be clear about your Personal Purpose. This gives you the direction and the decision criteria to understand what is right for you. Your Personal Purpose Statement links what key passions drive you forward and the core message that you are here in this life to express.

    • Have an outrageous vision. The bigger and bolder the vision, the more it will propel you forward. Focus on the experience you want to create, not the physical form (that's too limiting). Outrageous visions are contagious!

    Perceptions: put your company under the magnifying glass
    Every single business person in the world today is reminded, almost daily,of the importance of their customers',suppliers', partners' and employees'perceptions of their organisation.

    Perceptions are especially important in today's global business environment where first impressions can make you or break you - first impressions made in your lobby, from your website and by your employees in non-business environments. Right or wrong that's the way it is, and we all understand it.Most organisationshave come up with catchy little logos to further bolster the public's perceptions - logos like "I'm Loving It" (McDonalds), "Ideas for Life" (Panasonic), "Working Late, So Are We" (UPS), "Think" (IBM), "Always Low Prices!" (Wal- Mart) and "Enough Dreaming -Time to Ride" (Harley Davidson). These mental images pave the way for possible business dealings long before cold calls and business meetings ever happen.

    So life is simple create great perceptions of the organisation externally, then make an excellent .rst impression and your business will flourish.Your suppliers and partners will all develop a perception of trust, but most importantly your customers will perceive an environment of trust and will begin to recommend you to other companies, starting a networking effect that will grow your business to unimaginable levels of success end of story, right?
