Good Ideas Are Useless

July 26, 2019 by Gary O'Sullivan Leave a Comment

How many good ideas have you had in the last year? In the last month? In the last week?

What happened to those good ideas?

For far too many people, good ideas just disappear.

Why? Because the ideas were never acted on. Because the ideas were never tried and perfected.

Good ideas are abundant. But they’re useless unless they are acted on, unless they are put into practice.

Watch the short video to gain a deeper understanding of this valuable principle.

Why Go to Big Box Stores When You Can Buy Online?

March 12, 2019 by Gary O'Sullivan Leave a Comment

Like many of you, I buy a lot of stuff — including electronics equipment — online. But I’ll still go to bricks & mortar stores from time to time, including my local Best Buy. I know that anything I can find inside a Best Buy store (and then some) can be bought online. Yet I still venture out and visit those stores. Why? And what does this have to do with your business? Watch this video for the answers.

How Can You Stand Out in Your Market?

March 1, 2019 by Gary O'Sullivan Leave a Comment

As you start watching this short video, you’ll probably be wondering, “Why in the world are we looking at vegetables?” The answer is that for one business I visited recently, vegetables — or rather, something special about these particular vegetables — are major ingredients in its success.

Belief Builds Trust

February 26, 2019 by Gary O'Sullivan Leave a Comment

Business is built on relationships.

The great Zig Zigler is famous for reminding us that people don’t buy from you because of what you say; people buy from you because of what you say that they believe. And that belief comes from you building trust.

Watch this short video for some of my thoughts on the importance of trust.

A Little Bit Better

February 22, 2019 by Gary O'Sullivan Leave a Comment

Successful organizations are the ones that continually improve. They continually get better at what they do. And so do their people.

Successful organizations and the people in them have to be a whole lot better than their competition to thrive and maintain their market positions.

But getting a whole lot better doesn’t have to happen all at once.

Small, incremental improvements are not only very doable but also very sustainable. And, over time, as people get a little bit better at a lot of little things, they become significantly better.

In this this short video I talk about the power of incremental improvement, and I encourage you to think about how to apply this principle in your organization.

100 Billion Words

February 5, 2019 by Gary O'Sullivan Leave a Comment

Watching the Super Bowl has become an American tradition. For many of us, it’s not just the game we’re interested in. We also watch for the halftime show and for the commercials.

Think about that: we actually watch for the commercials.

For most of the year, television commercials are the things we fast-forward past on our DVRs. The things we mute so we can discuss what we were discussing during the last commercial. The things we ignore while we get a snack. But during the Super Bowl, commercials are different. Read this article to find out what my favorite commercial from the 2019 Super Bowl was — and why.

Thinking about Corporate Culture

February 1, 2019 by Gary O'Sullivan Leave a Comment

Far too many organizational leaders don’t spend enough time thinking about their corporate culture. That’s because corporate culture is essentially an invisible force. But it’s also a very powerful one — probably the single most powerful force in determining an organization’s prospects for success.

Does your Company Need an Interpreter?

January 30, 2019 by Gary O'Sullivan Leave a Comment

In this video I’m speaking to you from South America, where I’m about to deliver a talk to an audience of non English speakers. They speak Portuguese; I speak southern English. But we have an interpreter, so things should be fine. You see, language barriers have relatively easy solutions; communication barriers — not so much. If you’re a leader in your company, you know you have to be constantly attentive to how effectively people in your company are communicating.

Lessons from a Flight Crew

January 16, 2019 by Gary O'Sullivan Leave a Comment

No matter how much I fly, I’m always amazed at the process. And the process usually works pretty well! You know why? Because the members of the flight crew — people who may have never met before — come together and, in a matter of moments, start working together as a team. Why? Because they have a common vision of exactly what needs to happen. In this short video, I urge you to think about your people — and what you can do to get them to come together as a team.
