Coherent Strategy and Execution

Ravi Kathuria was our guest speaker this week talking about the principles presented in his new novel/business training book. It is a unique book - in that it seeks to teach through the words of a novel. The cover teaser reads as follows:

"Until the next Board Meetgin...may be all the time CEO Ravi KathuriaTrent Wertheimer has to regain the board's confidence.

"Trent faces challenging questions. How do I mitigate politics and eliminate team dysfunction? How do I drive coherent thinking and actions? How do I tie everything together from mission, vision, strategy, to execution, and drive growth?

"Through Trent's eye-opening journey. you will discover a proven, succinct management method thay will help you drive clarity and coherence, rewire your business, and...rewire your management and leadership perspectives."

Ravi is an expert business performance and organizational dynamics and is the founder and president of Cohegic Corporation, a management consulting, executive coaching and sales coaching firm. You can learn more at www.CoherentStrategy.com


And The Winner Is!Arif and Bola

Just returned from his world tour, Arif Saleem did not know that he was a very special Rotary Club member in Rotary District 5890! During his absence the District help it annual Conference. During the Conference there was a drawing from all the tickets submitted representing donations to the Rotary Foundation.

Lo and behold! Arif had one of his tickets pulled in the drawing and was declared the winner of a new car!

Man! Was he surprised! He called a number of the club members to verify that he had INDEED won the car before he could actually believe it.

So - Tuesday Karen Blakeman ramrodded a decorating effort for our meeting room to celebrate Arif's win. It was a super effort for a supper guy! Everyone wore a lei and applauded Arif's good luck.
