Proposing Corporate Ethics Standards (CES) Similar to International Standardization Organization (ISO) 9000!

The unfortunate so called “Business Ethics” being referred to as an oxy-moron has discouraged many management experts. However, using the same concepts that made ISO 9000 an accepted world-wide standard, Ethics in Management can follow the same example.

Sunset of Classical Organization Development (OD) and Organization Behavior (OB) and Sunrise of Positive Organization Sponsorship (POS)

As early as 1940s and until recent times, many organization experts and scientists followed a highly systematic, checklist like knowledge and process known as OD and OB.

A simple test sometimes verifies and validates what thousands of pages of strategy documents cannot. A simple request at a Starbucks, and the response in superior service, convinced me of the strategy excellence at Starbucks.

What will be the Future of Work?

In view of the Global Financial Crisis (GFC), Time Magazine and others predict that future of our work life will be substantially different! I agree that it will be different, but since I have lived this new life for fifteen years, let me tell you that it is not bad. However, we will need to become one person incorporations that have a proven, certifiable, virally marketable set of skills. All brand development, marketing and sales will need to be done by ourselves and at our own expense.

Razban Golden Rule 3: Executive Coach's Game Plan

An Executive Coach, just like a Football or Basketball Coach, must create a Game Plan that consists of synchronized Strategic and day-to-day plans for the operation of the company. These two plans must roll into company business plan that includes market share and ROI. All three must be considered living documents and subject to change control.

Do You Think CEOs Flying Blind in their Executive Jets?
