gives me great pleasure to e-mail you my first An Xtraordinary Life
newsletter for 2004. An Xtraordinary Life is a monthly newsletter
with valuable insights and thoughts about having an extraordinary
life - a life of achieving your goals and dreams personally and

It is designed to highlight key issues that we encounter in our
pursuit of success. The issues in An Xtraordinary Life come from
my experiences as well as the experiences of my clients. I promise
to keep the articles fresh, relevant and focused on success.

thoughts and suggestions with me. In turn, I can share them with
all of our readers that everyone may benefit.
Have an Xtraordinary Day!!!
Sincerely, Bill Davis, Certified Results Coach Networking How to Effectively Network in a 'Networked World'
Whether
you realize it or not, you are a part of a huge global network of
people and information. Your ability to stay connected to this global
network successfully is crucial to your business and career success.
There are however, common issues that people face when networking.
In an
effort to address these common issues, I've highlighted several
terms related to the operation of a real computer network. These
terms address how each of us should build and maintain relationships
essential to success.
In
this 'networked world' you must learn the importance of:
1.
Finding
your “Hub”
2.
Regularly
Visiting a “LAN”
3.
Becoming
a “Router”
4. Avoiding
“Packet Loss” At All Costs
5. Authentication

Corporate
Leadership
Sharpening Your
Corporate Leadership Skills
If
you are a business owner or a CEO, there are no shortages of challenges
these days. Rapidly changing technologies and markets – fierce competition
- an increasingly sophisticated workforce – downsizing – global
terrorism - corporate scandals - just to name a few.
Frankly,
I believe that good leadership is critical to a company's success,
and that central to a top executive's job is developing leadership
in other executives and managers. The Center for Creative Leadership
conducted a survey of Chief Executives with more than 750 executives
responding to the survey. Executives were asked questions in three
broad areas: What kind of leader are you? What is the state of leadership
in your organization? And, how do you develop leadership in your
company?
Think
about these three questions as I share the survey responses with
you. In Part 2 and 3 of this series on Corporate Leadership, I will
highlight more of the survey responses and ask you additional questions
related to leadership. What
kind of leader are you?

Financial
Matters
Privacy
Vs. Expertise
Most
business owners think that they can keep their own books. After
all, there’s good accounting software on the market, programs that
practically fill the spreadsheets out by themselves. The argument
to “do it yourself” may be okay for now, but in the long run, an
accountant is not just someone who keeps track of the pennies, but
a key member of your advisory or management team.
The
trail left by your money reveals your life story. But, when it comes
to your personal finances or the future of the business that you
worked so hard to build, you have to balance privacy against the
value of expertise. I highly recommend finding a bookkeeper or accountant
who specializes in your industry.
Here
are some things that you should consider when choosing an accountant
or bookkeeper:
