|"I love BOSS events…"
Thursday, August 26th, 2010
“…because over the past 4 meetings I’ve began to figure out what works and what doesn’t in the way I market my business. BOSS helped me realize that it’s about expressing to others what it is I enjoy about what I do!”
These are the words of Jared, one of our BOSS Members, this morning as he reflected back on our event last night.
It still gives me quivers to hear these stories and many others which prove the incredible impact we are having on each and every business owner we work with. I am constantly motivated by the quality of the community of businesses we are bringing together to really leverage off each other in some of the most creative ways possible. After asking BOSS Members to share their BOSS Success Stories at the beginning of last night, we learnt about various new partnerships, friendships, and referrals all starting to form within BOSS. But don’t take my word for it, why not call some of our very own members to find out how they’re benefiting first hand! (more…)

Lessons from the 2010 Vancouver Olympics
Monday, March 8th, 2010
First of all let me say that this is a great time 
to be a Canadian! It was fantastic to watch our athletes perform so well on the world stage and it was also very uplifting to see so many Canadians support our athletes and show their pride in being Canadian.
But are there any lessons that we could learn from the Olympics that could apply to us in business? Well from our perspective there are many. Here are a few that we complied while watching our Olympians perform on the world stage.
Creative vs. Competitive
The Olympics, just like any other athletic activity, is by its very nature a “competition”. Similarly, in many instances life may also seem like a “competition”. In the Olympics, just like in our economy, the result will be a few “winners” and many “losers”. This is simply how competition works. There is nothing wrong with this but rather is simply the nature of competitive games. Some people say that silver medal is the first loser. But this can be a cynical way of looking at competition. There is nothing wrong with competition – far from it – it will bring out the best in athletes and people. However we must realize the limitations that can arise form thinking in the competitive plane and this is especially true in business.
In business, what we must realize is that there are two planes to operate from: the Competitive Plane and the Creative Plane. (more…)
