- Consider and build on what you have in place
Practical application of principles
- Connect academic principles and philosophies into practical applications
- Create systems so that concepts get implemented
Design of original and organized ideas vs. packaged programs
- Some consultants invest as much as half their time into selling programs and may facilitate them; this is a good strategy for some though I choose to invest limited time into marketing and focus above-average time into solution development and service.
- Blend development of new ideas with news ways of teaching timeless principles.
Match vs. Sell
- Seek to "match" based on services needed and values for long-term impact versus "sell" you
- In teaching, seek to connect and make a difference rather than impress
Persistent effort to guarantee promises and satisfaction
- Philosophical goal is to exceed expectations or persist until value added
- Tuition allows for adjustment based on value added and satisfaction.
