What to Know When Dating a Coworker
Dating a coworker is a major office taboo—and for good reason. Mixing work and romance is often a recipe for disaster. It only takes one major falling out to cause one person to accuse the other of sexual harassment, have work grind to a screeching halt, or even get the company embroiled in a newsworthy scandal.

Hip! Hip! Hooray! It's Graduation Day!
Hello to all graduates everywhere. When I was a toddler many, many centuries ago, my parents, like many other great parents, would read me bedtime stories. One of the stories that made a deep and early impression on my life involved an engine of a train that, when faced with an obstacle, would be known to say, “I think I can. I think I can.” I believe the story was called "The Little Engine That Could" by Platt & Munk. I also believe that you may know it as well.

I Did It! I Finally Did It!!!
When you were much younger, I am sure that you have heard many bedtime stories. Back then, they were designed to not just entertain you, but to help you to fall asleep. Nothing wrong with that. Believe it or not, these stories were not just stories. They were lessons designed to help you. Some of these tales—like the fables—had a moral for you to think about and learn.

Author Speaks 2
I have writer's block. Even blogging right now seems like a chore, but I know I need to cope somehow. It's extremely annoying and unsettling, this feeling. You know what you want to say, you're simply unable to make the words come together.

The Death of Common Courtesy
Click for AUDIO version. The other day we had a new FedEx driver make a delivery at our office in Palm Harbor. Since I happened to be by the front door, I opened it and watched him approach. He wore a scowl on his face as if he had been having a bad day. I opened the door, greeted him warmly, shook his hand and asked how his day was going. As I signed for the delivery, the driver looked at me strangely. I asked him if there was a problem. He said, no, it was just that I was the first person that day to be friendly to him and actually ask how he was doing. He said in most companies he visits he's pretty much taken for granted and treated rudely.

To Be a Leader. Top Story - July 2017.
To be a leader is not to put the world on your shoulders alone, but to trust enough that others will be able to carry the burden with you. To be a leader is not to bark at others and give orders, but to bend your back with them and show them the way. You will know that you are a righteous and humble leader when nobody realizes that you have been leading them.

Parenting Management
“Most children are raised by amateurs, not professionals.” - Bryce’s Law Want to know what to expect of the work force in the years ahead? Look no farther than our schools or homes. Let me preface my remarks by saying that in addition to all of my other responsibilities, I was very active in my local Little League for a number of years where I served as coach, umpire, and on the local board of directors. Further, I have been very active locally in offering Masonic scholarships to High School students. In addition, my wife has been active in the local school system for the last ten years at the elementary, middle, and high school levels (this also included PTA and SAC). Although we probably won’t win an award as the world’s best parents, we made a point of becoming an important and influential part of our children’s lives. We didn’t take any special courses in parenting, we just got involved. But we are the exceptions as opposed to the rule.

2 Big Don'ts and 1 Huge Do During a PR Blunder
It is an inevitable fact of business, especially in this day and age. Company scandals and bad PR moments are bound to happen. We business owners can’t control everything that goes on within or outside the confines of our businesses. We rely on tens, hundreds and sometimes thousands of employees. We are dealing with hundreds if not millions of consumers on a daily basis. This means controlling what goes on is nearly impossible.
