Coaches Corner: Why We Walk Away from our Ambitions
By Felicia Lee, Ghost CEO Advisor It's been such a joy to watch and participate in some of the 2010 Winter Olympic activities. I'm quite inspired by the Olympic athletes, especially in their stories and journey. So many have always known that they've wanted to become an Olympian ever since they were little kids. Some have been called "too ambitious", but have not allowed naysayers to come between them and their ambition. Today I want to take a quick look into this thing we called "Ambition". Are you ambitious? What does the word "ambition" mean to you? Do you feel uncomfortable talking about your ambition? Does... [read more]

Coaches Corner: When To Walk Away From Your Customer
As women, we are sometimes programmed to help others. We see problems, we know exactly what needs to be done to solve them, we run in to fix them, and all is good. And this is a good thing most of the times. In corporations large or small, women are often the ones who notice what needs to be done, get the work done, and are the glue that hold everything together. If you are a mother, you know that you are often the first one to notice that your child is upset, is uncomfortable, needs to be fed, etc. However, we may run into roadblocks when we transfer this desire and this know-how to working with potential customers. Have you... [read more]

Being The Torchbearer In Your Business
The Olympic spirit is gripping Vancouver right now and I feel so lucky to be living in this city to experience it. It's really quite an incredible experience to step out on the streets and see seven times as many people as you're used to. The energy is electric. I'm also loving being part of the MetroBlenz News Squad - a group of local bloggers in Vancouver who are sharing their experiences during the Olympics via posts, photos and videos. Yesterday I was lucky to attend a fantastic lunch seminar put on by the Forum for Women Entrepreneurs (FWE) at PricewaterhouseCoopers and blogged about it here on the MetroBlenz site. The theme...

Why You Need to Love Thy Entrepreneurial Self
Today I felt extremely human. Somewhere along the way I lost my Wonder Woman cape and instead turned intoMiss Cranky Pants with sleep deprivation. I was short with the friendly Google Analytics course instructor. I didn't enjoy the first day of the course I'd been looking forward to. By the end of the day I was totally drained, more confused than ever and feeling like a total imbicile. Brian explained that today was more for developers and coders and tomorrow was more for marketers wanting to make real sense of all the information and I realised the others were equally as overwhelmed. Mistake No. 1 Assuming you're alone in this... [read more]
