Added for You - Winnie the Pooh and You… at the Tradeshow?
Preventive and Predictive Maintenance Predictive maintenance aims to predict the occurrence of problems so that action can be taken to avert downtime. The most common usage of predictive maintenance is with wear parts. Variations in the key dimensions of wear parts are measured and when they go below a predefined level, the part is replaced. In this way downtime and poor machine performance is averted.There are two stages to predictive maintenance: first identify a characteristic that varies as a component nears its end-of-life and second, define the level at which
If you have an Owl-style staffer, you might count yourself lucky. After all, she knows EVERYTHING! However, watch your Owl in action. Their overwhelming compulsion to ‘show off’ their knowledge can easily alienate attendees and send them in search of a salesperson who knows how
Motivational humorous speakers can help to motivate meeting attendees at your next event. Motivation has been defined as the deployment of physical, mental and emotional energy toward a specific task or goal. In pure psychological terms motivation is often referred to initiation, intensity and persistence of a specific behavior and by employing a motivational humorous speaker you can tap into true motivation. Motivation can be a temporal and dynamic state that should not be confused with emotion or personality. A motivational humorous speaker can help point out that motivation i
Surprisingly, quite a bit. There are some very strong similarities between Winnie the Pooh and the other inhabitants of the Hundred Acre Woods and many tradeshow exhibitors. Don’t believe me? Take a look and see how many of your staffers you recognize:
Winnie the Pooh
Pooh Bear may be cute, cuddly and approachable -- but he’s also got one thing on his mind. What makes this roly poly bear happy? Honey, of course! He’s obsessed with the golden sweet -- when he’s not enjoying a meal, he’s in search of the next smackerel to fill his rumbly-tummy.
A Pooh-style booth staffer is hungry. He might be talking to attendees, but he’s thinking about lunch. If someone walks by with a sandwich, his eyes are instantly drawn to it. Scents from the food court get his nostrils quivering. When he gets a chance to eat, he takes it: even if that means eating in the booth!
Piglet
Piglet is a very small animal, made even more timid when confronted with unfamiliar surroundings, loud noises, bright colors, and crowds. His reaction? Why, to run and hide under the bed, of course, or behind his good friend Pooh.
A Piglet-style staffer may be naturally shy or someone who is easily overwhelmed. Their reaction, inspired by fear, is to fade into the back of the booth and hope no one notices them. More often than not, they get their wish -- which is good for them, but bad for your bottom line.
Owl
Owl is an exceedingly well educated bird. He’s got a brain just cram-packed full of facts and figures -- and he wants you to know it. No tidbit of information is too small to escape his attention, nor to avoid being retold to anyone who will listen.

Chris used to work for a corporation--until one day he was told that he could leave... permanently. He wondered why he would be disposed of after giving seven years of his life to the company. He was certain he wouldn't stay there forever, but he thought he would have a little more control over the timing of his departure.I met with Chris and speculated as to the reasons he was fired. Of course, he heard the typical corporate explanation--code words that translate into the basic understanding that the leaders didn't have a clue as to what they were doing and why--you've he

The Greatest Day in History…Today is the greatest day in the history of the world! That statement sounds optimistic because it sounds promising and it feels good to say it. That statement is often said in the context of today being the first day of the rest of your life and one is appreciative. Such appreciation should never go unattended, as it is real. However that statement is not a statement at all nor is it optimistic. “Today is the greatest day in the history of the world” is not a proclamation of promise. It’s a declaration of truth. The history of the world

We’ve all heard it before: “Just get out there and network!” If it was that easy, we would already be doing it. So why is it so hard? Well, you’re an introvert, aren’t you? Enough said.However, unless the prospect of a really long job search excites you, you have to get out there and connect with people who don’t know you but who could benefit from your expertise.Below are a baker’s dozen tips to help you crack the connection code.1. Attend with a purpose in mind. Be choosy about the events you attend. Pick the ones that interest you most. It could be a ribbo

Rabbit
Rabbit is the busiest creature in the Hundred Acre Woods. He’s always rushing around: planting seeds over here, pulling weeds over there, chasing crows and watering daffodils. There are a million and one tasks required to keep his beloved garden blooming, and they’re all very important.
You can always tell a Rabbit-style staffer. They’re the ones with a cell phone constantly in their ear, fingers flying over the keyboard as they check e-mails or text message the home office. They’re so obviously busy taking care of business that they can’t be bothered with trivial distractions -- like talking to show attendees!
Tigger
Tigger is full of energy. He bounces around, springing from one thing that catches his attention to the next. Full of laughs, high spirits and infectious energy, Tiggers are a lot of fun to have around.
Put Tigger at a tradeshow, however, and you might have a problem. Enthusiasm and high energy can attract traffic to your exhibit, but without some focus and control (concepts foreign to most Tigger-types) there’s no way to capitalize on your crowds.
At this point, you might be feeling a little like Eeyore -- down in the dumps. After all, with a booth full of Poohs, Piglets, Owls, Rabbits & Tiggers, your chances for success are looking pretty slim. Don’t despair! The hero of the Hundred Acre Woods is on his way!
Christopher Robin
The human companion to Winnie the Pooh and all of his furry friends, Christopher Robin encompasses the best traits of all five and adds a crucial element: perspective and understanding of how things actually work.
A Christopher Robin-style staffer combines Owl’s knowledge, Tigger’s enthusiasm and Pooh’s approachability with an
