The Best Way to Learn? Hands-on!
Posted on 15. May, 2012 by Malcolm Munro.
What’s the best way to learn a new task? You can learn the background, the theory, the technical details…or you can just jump in. In the Navy, the training mantra was “See on, do one, teach one” which worked well. Military folks can do tasks that civilians need certifications to do. I even put a [...]

Reliablity (revisited)
Posted on 10. May, 2012 by Malcolm Munro.
Recently I blogged on being reliable as part of a series on How to Be Taken Seriously. I can’t stress this principle enough. This morning, for the umpteenth time, my wife’s personal trainer from the Healthtrax Gym in Germantown (we’ll call him Jasper) texted her late at night while she was sleeping to let her [...]

Perform it Like AC/DC
Posted on 30. Apr, 2012 by Malcolm Munro.
East Hartford, CT has become my de-facto home-away-from-home. I have several clients there, but my absolute favorite is the one I do a three-day management skills program for. I won’t tell you who they are, except that they build “dependable engines.” Now I’ve been delivering this program for over three years, sometimes several times a [...]

Worthwhile TV programs don’t exist on Sunday nights once 60 Minutes ends. Last week, after surfing the channels endlessly looking for something interesting to watch, I stumbled upon a very interesting documentary on the Smithsonian channel. Apparently, some whale watchers captured video of a Killer Whale eating a Great White Shark. Now everything we’ve ever [...]

Two More Ways to Get You (and Your Ideas) Taken Seriously
Posted on 16. Apr, 2012 by Malcolm Munro.
Last month I wrote a short posting on three ways to be taken seriously with a promise that the list would be added to. Today is that day. Friday night I got home late from a business trip and was met instantly by my 13-year-old daughter who had a proposition for me: Could I get [...]

Seeing Old Things Through New Eyes
Posted on 09. Apr, 2012 by Malcolm Munro.
This week I’m traveling up to Hartford, CT with my 15-year-old son. Since I travel all the time, I was never there for the regular “take your kid to work” day but as his Spring Break falls during this week, I thought it would be fun. Most of the time, travel for me is a [...]

Book Review: The Connection
Posted on 05. Apr, 2012 by Malcolm Munro.
Book #12 of 52 The Connection: Link Your Deepest Passion, Purpose, and Actions to Make a Difference in the World written by Anthony Silard was a book I found in the Self-Help section of Barnes & Noble that looked interesting. Silard talks about achieving The Connection which is really an individual’s ability to identify and [...]
