“Differentiate…No, No DISTINGUISH YOURSELF!!!”
Words and how we use them are very defining for us in today’s business. Everywhere we visit, we hear, “This is how I differentiate myself and our business.” If everyone is differentiating themselves then how can you stand out? Ed shares how powerful “distinguishing” yourself through a strategic focus on your most important business relationships can be to your performance and well-being.
No More ‘Fake It Until You Make It’
Let Ed share the motivation to wake up every morning not thinking about going to work, but rather going to spend time with close friends all day long! Ed believes, “For people as ‘connected’ as we are, we’re completely disconnected in making our business lives work. We need to bring the human touch back into everyday business.” Let Ed motivate your audience to just be themselves and head out not dreading their workday, but rather seeing their job as spending time with ‘close friends’ all day long.
