Raising the Barr Weekly Memo: Issue No. 19 Move The World Raising the Barr Weekly Memo: Issue No. 19
This week’s reflection point: For quite some time I have been suggesting that remarkable, provocative content is the critical aspect of one’s thought leadership. And to clarify, by content I mean, articles, position papers, audio books, booklets, eBooks, books, videos, audio recordings, teleseminars, webinars, workshops and so on.

Raising the Barr Weekly Memo: Issue No. 15 Pick One Raising the Barr Weekly Memo: Issue No. 15
This week’s reflection point: When talking with most of my clients, I’ve observed a key attribute that is both exciting yet alarming. They love to think big, be stimulated with new and innovative ideas, and even prepare to take action. However, they then get overwhelmed with what needs to get done or sidetracked by other new tasks and priorities. The sad part is that nothing gets done and the excitement is replaced with frustration. I call this The Entrepreneur Addiction....
