Mayan Doom or Time to Buy?
According to ancient Mayan prognosticators our world should be coming to an end sometime around Christmas. If you?re sitting in Greece or JP Morgan?s bond-lending group, the end might seem like it?s already here. And off the Peruvian coast, wildlife is literally dropping from the sky.

The human brain is hard-wired to read and respond to these signals, but these leaders don?t know that the process is taking place and are unequipped, therefore, to use it to their advantage.

Private Equity Investments: A Question Of Supply And Demand
The PE investment picture as 2012 began looked very much like the one that prevailed two years ago as the industry was clawing its way back from the depths of the downturn. But as we discuss in Bain & Company?s Global Private Equity Report 2012, conditions today are more favorable for PE deal making. Debt is available to finance a wider spectrum of deals, and there are also more companies suitable for PE acquisition. Two years ago, many potential PE targets were struggling to absorb the shocks of the credit crisis and the subsequent recession. Today, with their finances righted and costs under control, more companies are ripe for sale.

How to Get People to Tell You the Truth
Years ago, a mentor of mine told me that the biggest derailers for leaders are 1) thinking you're infallible and 2) losing touch with what's actually happening in your organization. Though I've never seen any statistics supporting his contention, in the 20 years since he said it to me, my own observations have certainly confirmed it anecdotally.

And just about everywhere you look online, there are professors writing about what you and I as businesspeople are doing wrong every day.
