Topic: A Pound of Prevention: n you have ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife. Then there will be those days that soar, where all is well and you happen to do and say the right thing at the right time. I love those days. I did not have one of those days recently. The kind I love, that is. A few weeks ago, my water heater decided to begin to heat the floor of garage with some of its contents. For several days, I swept the water out of the garage, hoping for a miraculous self-repair, but that was not to be. I solicited some help and soon had a new water heater installed and my garage floor began to dry up. It was beautiful, I wanted to take pictures and post on facebook, hehe. I had awakened the next morning, ready to take my first worry-free hot shower in weeks, to discover, much to my dismay, no hot water. My "new appliance" joy was short-lived for the pilot light on the new unit refused to stay lit. "This little light of mine, please shine..., please." I discovered that it would only stay lit for a few hours. What to do? What a pain in the rear-> arranging for a repairman to come out to fix a brand new appliance. The knots in my stomach became big, humongous bows and I craved the peace of a hot bath. Ha! That was not a good day..., it has since been fixed but the tentative, sick feeling in my stomach remains as I wonder, what is next? Murphy's Law, ya know? We work to avoid broken appliances and broken vehicles. We maintain our homes as best we can. We are required by law to carry motor vehicle insurance, yet how many of us also have uninsured motorists coverage to protect us against the guy who laughs at the law? A pound of prevention is far more valuable than a beautiful ounce of stupid, there's no cure for that. What will you prevent today? A fall off? A bad interview? A missed appointment time? A misspelled word in a résumé? An anxious client? There is only so much you can step in and prevent but when you miss something, who takes the blame? The same person who doesn't get the credit when something goes right. And isn't it ironic, don't you think? © by rayannethorn …; Added by Rayanne at 4:11am on January 13, 2010

Comment on: Topic 'Can you do some recruiting work for me on a part time or full time basis?': n but they do not need very many from time to time. Perhaps the following will clear the air so you will see where I am coming from: Blue Ocean Strategy: How your business can leave the competition behind. A CEO of a client firm of mine recently sent me a book entitled Blue Ocean Strategy which, he said is a strategy his firm uses to gain market share in areas where others are not even trying to get new business. Companies need to go beyond competing. The only way to beat competition is to stop trying to beat the competition. If you want to do more business and make more money, read the book. No, I an not in the book publishing business nor do I get paid if you buy the book but I am just passing on some information that may help you grow your business once you understand the principles underlying this strategy. Executive Reviews Read what top executives have to say about Blue Ocean Strategy........ • After reading BLUE OCEAN STRATEGY, you will never again see your competition in quite the same light. Kim and Mauborgne present a compelling case for pursuing strategy with a creative, not combative, approach. Their emphases on value innovation and stakeholder engagement alone make this book a must-read for both executives and students of business. Carlos Ghosn, President and CEO, Renault & Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. • This is an extremely valuable book to read. It examines the experience of companies in areas as diverse as watches, wine, cement, computers, automobiles, and even the circus to shed new light on the development of future strategies. Nicolas G. Hayek, Chairman of the Board of Directors, Swatch Group • I recommend BLUE OCEAN STRATEGY to any executive in the private or public sector. It shows how to break from the status quo, create a winning future strategy, and execute this fast at low cost. As much a practical guide as an eye-opener. William J. Bratton, Chief of the Los Angeles Police Department, former Police Commissioner of the City of New York • Kim and Mauborgne’s strategies are not only original but practical. Our company has used them and obtained powerful results. The authors chart a bold new path to winning the future.” Patrick Snowball, Chief Executive, Norwich Union Insurance The CEO who sent this book said that he felt that without knowing it I am following many of the principles of this strategy by offering a new pricing model covering my recruitment fees to CEOs seeking high level executives who are a cut above the normal executives. I have over 1,000 C level executives who have run start ups to Fortune 500 companies and they are unique in that all of them have high net worth’s which in most cases they have earned by helping firms they have run in the past grow to become larger and more successful companies. When I can talk to CEOs about why they should consider hiring one of my executives, I try to get them thinking of what they can do to grow their business by thinking outside of the box and coming up with a new or improved product or service that they need to introduce to new customers and hire someone who can spearhead such a project. If any CEO is willing to talk about what we offer, we would welcome a call. If any recruiters are willing to work with Schwelling Recruiting Services to help us reach out to CEOs to see if they might need our unique services, we would welcome an inquiry for more information on how we would work together. Rome was not built in a day and it will take some time to get our message out to firms that may not know what we offer but in due time, I expect to grow our business considerably and share our profits with the right partners that join us.
