Detroit is crowing that the auto industry is back, but so far, at least, it is a success story built as much on a revival in lending as on the development of desirable cars.

On 23rd April 1999, IDESS inaugurated the first freefall life boat training facility in S.E Asia.
The boat was supplied by Schat Harding, and has recently logged 2,600 freefall launches since the first, more than 12 years ago.
We feel that this remarkable figure is worth bringing to your attention.
To keep equipment operating effectively and safely over the years requires a commitment to planned maintenance and regular inspections.
As with all our training…

I want to take a look at a myth that has been a mainstream statement for years – the idea that knowledge is power. I find as I visit stores and conduct workshops across the country, I meet a lot of “know it all” salespeople or worse yet, negative salespeople who want the customer to take all of the responsibility for not buying a car. I also want to reach out to the people that sit in training nodding their head in agreement or taking a ton of notes, only to leave behind the concepts they…
ContinueOver the years I have made plenty of mistakes. Rather than keep track of the mistakes, I just made a list of the things I learned.
If you are an aspiring Manager, print this and keep it handy. You might find a helpful thought in there to use and make a difference.
Here is the list as it stands now. I have made changes as I learned something new. Hope you can use it to do something different or make a change.

HIS AND HER DIARY FOR THE SAME DAY:
Her Diary:
Tonight, I thought my husband was acting weird. We had made plans to meet at a nice restaurant for dinner. I was shopping with my friends all day long, so I thought he was upset at the fact that I was a bit late, but he made no comment on it. He said he had been at the marina in the afternoon. Conversation wasn't flowing, so I suggested that we go somewhere quiet so we could talk.…

Some managers should wear bonnets and carry diaper bags, because in their role as a leader, they function more like a nanny.
While their teammates and the organization overall would benefit greatly if they applied the accountability skills of The Nanny on the popular television show, that's not normally the case.
I'm taken aback as I visit businesses on consulting missions and see managers nearly begging their people to do their jobs. They sweet talk, entice, and…

It's this humble dealer's opinion that the last thing we need as an industry is more downward pressure on profit margins. We have worked so hard over the past few years "surviving".
