in All Things Workplace: Do You Offer Hope? on All Things Workplace
Hi Steve,

I certainly think hope is certainly a sentiment that is shared by many at the beginning of any venture. I would go as far as saying that every prospect you have has that same hope in solving their problems, though I think the best way to build that bridge to the client is fulfilling that hope into realisation.

Steve Roesler For sure, Nesh. I suppose I was making that assumption.

I got into this train of thought after watching a very successful executive do some much-needed trimming of fat as well as sorting out other cost factors. The employees involved understood the need for this. But then, I began to watch a visible drop in morale and engagement. It was palpable.

The reason? He offered very good solutions for today but hadn't yet painted a picture of what the future might hold once the necessary actions were taken. So, the people began to operate at a very gut level and express a sense of "hopelessness" for what lay ahead.

I read this in the paper yesterday and what I find rather amusing about the whole case is that because the original defamatory comments were made anonymously on a forum he couldn't sue the originators of the libel and instead set sights on Google.

I am willing to put money on this not going against Google. I studied law and the repercussions of such a ruling would have such a massive fall out that the legal system would be inundated with cases. Judges won't do anything to dramatically rock the status quo.

Glad you have made the decision to quit. I quit a few years ago with help from my local health clinic and I feel really proud that I have kicked the habit. However, I still have cravings and when I'm low the temptation to 'just have one' is always there. Good luck.

4%, that sounds pretty good until you realise that the top searches in all the major search engines relate to, shall we say 'risque' keywords. Now I'll bet that of the 4% of infected or risky web sites, most will be in area's of the internet where hat's, long coats and paper bags are in high supply.

It's quite interesting, but since I removed 'nofollow' I am automatically drawn to sites that also follow the same practices. I was just checking out truemors to see if it was anything worth looking at and came accross your link. Nice to know that there is a community of people who share the same ideas. Congrats.
