Seth Godin and Tribal Marketing

Source: From Gaping Void, Interview With Seth Godin

I like Seth Godin. But when I read point number one in this interview, I had to wonder if I'm dumb.

He claims to be saying something radical but it seems to be a confusing restatement of the most basic business principle: If you provide a product to a market that wants it you are going to be successful.

Or is he saying that if you want… Continue

Analyzing Body Language

I'm a fan of the neo-necon. She's a psychotherapist who was raised as Democrat but swung to the centre-right. So, she's not voting for Obama.

The other day, she analyzed his body posture. I initially said that her comments were the product of pure bias but she challenged my opinion so I had a second look and think that it might be of interest to us as recruiters.…

How To Get The Truth From Liars

Reference: I stole this from Paul Hebert on Fist Full of Talent.

No one is honest when there is a punishment for honesty.
