I often use steering as a metaphor for business planning. Even when you have a steady highway, steering takes attention and constant small corrections. When the road gets curvy, corrections are more drastic. So too with running your own business, or starting a new one. You don’t just set a course; you watch results, review often, and revise as needed.

I use the Chrome browser and judging from the data I get from Google Analytics so do 60.12% of my site visitors. Chrome is certainly winning the browser war at the moment and this is due in large part to the growing set of tools, plugins, and extensions that extend the power far beyond basic search.

By Conor Delaney, founder and Chief Executive Officer at Good Life Advisors. Fiduciary responsibility is a two-way street paved with trust. Trust that the client is clear on his or her goals, and that the investment advisor’s plan to achieve them is well defined. With a complete disregard for ambiguity, trust demands transparency.

Running a start-up is profoundly different than running a big company. When you’re small, founders are close to the action and can make sure all the important things happen. But as a start-up scales, founders can’t have their hands in everything: many companies lose focus on the customer; decisions get bogged down; and there are hiring mistakes.

Some companies find fundraising easy. That’s usually because of work they’ve done at some point in the past (truly amazing growth, serial entrepreneur, some other magic) but when it comes to the actual fundraising process they’re courted by multiple investors and raising cash is quick and easy. We have a few of those companies in our portfolio (and hope to have a lot more), but we also have companies that have to work much harder.

Ok, so we know we’ve gotta build an MVP. Then, we go build our MVP. Now what? It’s time to find out if it was actually Viable. Find out if it was viable by the truth of how the market reacted. Did it solve their problem? If it didn’t we need to build a new kind of Viable. What we should never do is make it a bigger Minimum and hope that that increases the probability of the Viability.

The late George Steinbrenner , the owner of the New York Yankees, was a mercurial executive who relentlessly drove his team, both those on the field as well as those in the front office, to achieve a level of excellence that was often, unachievable.

I’ve been using the 12″ iPad Pro for 5 months. Targeted to a business professional, this iPad hits the mark on many levels. It is not without flaws, a few which I will detail here.
