Smart Spending: My Kingdom for a Blog

06. Mars 2010 eftir Lena West

"Innovation has nothing to do with how many R&D dollars you have. When Apple came up with the Mac, IBM was spending at least 100 times more on R&D. It's not about money. It's about the people you have, how you're led, and how much you get it." - Steve Jobs | lesa meira

What you need to understand is: slow leaks cost more over time. A cost most business professionals can't afford to absorb.   | lesa meira

The Basics of Advocacy

10. September 2009 eftir Mary Schnack

A big part of being a leader in your community or your industry, is to advocate. We need to break out of our office walls and realize it's a big world out there. No matter how "small" we might be as a small business or as one individual person, we are greatly impacted by laws that are passed. We all must be a part of those discussions and decisions and learn to advocate -- for your business and for women business owners. | lesa meira
