Ooops. Blog is supposed to be fast, right? Lots of new entries on a regulars basis. Well this last few days has been a disaster from that perspective. We went to KL to run PRM ASIA 2005 (Partner Relationship Management) at Le Meridien organised by EMP-ASIA. Great session, everyone from TelekomMalaysia, Applied Business Systems to the Ministry of Agriculture, plus a few other industries in between (including Ericsson). Expect some serious changes if you partner with these companies, they really got down and worked hard!
Several good lessons there.
Lesson 1. Beware attachments. I have a delightful old Thinkpad 240 laptop. Fits in by briefcase so I don't have to lug a big bag around, great for on the spot work. But old. Hotel has freee broadband in the room. No problem, quick blog before bed and we are away! WRONG. BB connection not compatible with 4 year old lappy!
Love it yes, but time to change. So, what attachments have you got to old habits or ways of working that may be hindering your progress?
Not sure how to handle them? Hit this blog and get answers.
Great article on Fastcompany about change and our resistance to it.
And if you have big stuff to deal with, I am now making a few other changes. Most of our work has been training and coaching in corporate groups for the past 6 years. Recently I have discovered individuals around the region who need and want a coach but didn't realise they could find the right business related, international expertise in Asia. Recent coaching sessions with clients arond the region have been a blast for them and me. Skype means great phone quality from everywhere and no call charges. Want a coach? Call me.

And I'll let you know which new lappy graces my briefcase soon. (clue here)
Keep selling
