JA Field Day helps Cleveland’s young adults start thinking about what comes next
Students from across Northeast Ohio received a big boost in planning their future thanks to Junior Achievement of Greater Cleveland. More than 450 students came together for a day focused on JA’s core mission pillars of career readiness, financial literacy and entrepreneurship.
Don't settle for being an ordinary leader
You’re not an ordinary person, so these ordinary steps are not enough to give your mind, body and spirit what it needs to accomplish everything that your role demands.
Plans are pointless unless they include direct action to reach the end goal
There’s more to leading a successful enterprise than having vision. What some leaders lack — and what differentiates effective leaders from the pack — is the ability to execute. Without execution, there’s no momentum.
Start applying the behaviors of experimentation in your business
Imagine your country is experiencing a terrible drought. You’re forced to drop out of school because there’s no money to cover the basic school fees. Reading a book in the local library, you discover that windmills can generate energy. So what do you do?
NEO students have fun learning about career paths
This was the fourth year for JA Field Day and the first time the event welcomed students from all four participating counties, which includes Lake, Geauga, Cuyahoga and Lorain counties. My younger self would have found it hard to believe, but you really can learn about adulting and still have fun.
You can achieve distinction by creating memorable possibilities
Satisfaction comes from making a difference and the ability to exercise your curiosity to discern what is important from both a professional, as well as personal perspective. You relate and empathize with all types of people, thus establishing a connection that is genuine, authentic and trustworthy.
Corporations can use VC to find their way in a rapidly changing economy
Young startups versus the Fortune 100. Can you think of two cultures further apart? From size and market power to financial stability, these two groups of companies seem to exist in completely different universes. But the relationship between these two ends of the spectrum is changing fast.
Find your focus: A look inside the mindset of today's entrepreneur
Being an entrepreneur today can be overwhelming. There is no shortage of information to help shape your decisions and the direction of your business. This can obviously be unnerving at times, and cause you to lose focus on what is really most important.
As wealth increases, so do aspirations to achieve more out of life
Many wealthy people are in the best financial shape of their life. Buoyed by the second longest bull market in history, the lowest debt ratio on their balance sheets and growing compensation, why then do so many feel the pressure to keep going?
It's decision time. Do you trust your gut?
Dolf Kahle truly believes your gut is driven by the brain’s experience. If you have been building a successful business over the years, your gut has been trained to know the right direction to steer your brain. Trust it.
