This Week@Work, a rusty bike chain made me think of Zig Ziglar, who started out as a door-to-door salesperson.
Zig understood the art of hunting for business, something that most business owners have gotten rusty at since we started to rely on digital media to bring business to our door.
This Week@Work at a large gathering of business owners, the discussion centered on where to find growth in low or no-growth business environments.

This Week@Work, I facilitated a business battleplan with a room full of warriors, also known as business owners!

This week@work I met with group of business owners who are deeply passionate about their business and it got me thinking about the difference between purpose and intent.
