Or does it?

Today I wanted to share a post from Stan Kinder. He has great insight on how to add value to your email list.

What is YOUR quarterly planning process?

As the war between Russia and Ukraine drags on, President Zelenskyy has shifted from being grateful for any military support to telling the NATO countries what he needs to repel the Russians.

Shocking things happen when the information you give isn’t what the boss happens to want to hear.

For example, I was reading an article about 2 senior Russian oil executives who have died recently of what we'll term unnatural causes.

There’s nothing funny about the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. Mass destruction of property. Death. Ukrainians fleeing their homes. It truly is a tragedy.

I like to follow the news and lately, I’ve been reading and watching news about the ongoing hostilities between Russia and Ukraine. One of the more interesting things I saw early in the video footage was the peculiar white “Z” the Russians were painting on the sides of their vehicles.

Let’s be frank – nothing kills an organization's morale faster than making completely unrealistic claims that get your staff all revved up, only to find out you've lied and not only are they not advancing as you promised – they’re in reverse.

In many ways, the peace in your company mimics the war in Ukraine.

On one side you have Putin and the Russians. They assert – rightly or wrongly – that a strong, NATO-aligned Ukraine is a threat. The presence of a well-equipped potential adversary is a compromise they are not prepared to accept.
