Change According to Netflix Founder: “It’s Hard”

Posted on November 30, 2011 by Christa Dhimo

Brand strategy. Loyal customer bases. Steadfast CEOs. Comfort. Consistency. Memorability. Apple.  McDonald’s. Netfli…(a needle scratches off a record… um, I mean, the mp3 player crashes…) Belated Response? The Netflix Debacle It might seem like I’m a little late in writing about this topic because it has been a couple of months since I got the [...]

Hope Actually IS a Strategy (Part 2)

Posted on September 28, 2011 by Christa Dhimo

It took me three months.  Just one quarter.  Only twelve weeks.  I’m back.  My social experiment is over, and my conclusion is: Hope still lives, albeit on a fairly powerful respirator. In my last blog, I shared that it was getting harder to write monthly… (apologizing for the no-post May,) I wrote that: “My shelves [...]

Hope Actually IS a Strategy

Posted on June 14, 2011 by Christa Dhimo

Where to start, where to start.  I have, for the most part, loyally posted a monthly blog for nearly two years on this fabulous and support-my-crazy-blogs site.  But last month?  Nothing. I know… there was no blog post from me.  My shelves were empty, my inspiration went desert, my fun balloon shot around the room [...]

Blankity-Blank-Blank Nerves!!

Posted on April 28, 2011 by Christa Dhimo

Nerves! Those blankity-blank-blank nerves! Yes, you heard me.  Nerves.  Those darn nerves!  Always around, never a dull moment: “nerves” have gotten the best of us and promoted the worst of us.  Leadership isn’t leadership without nerves, is it. I have a close relationship with nerves.  My nerves, other people’s nerves, high nerves, low nerves… the [...]

The Exceptional Strength of Followership

Posted on March 28, 2011 by Christa Dhimo

This month marks a remarkable time in all of our lives. It doesn’t matter where you live, how you were raised, or which side of any current news-story you are on, these are remarkable times! It seems that we have opened this decade with a torrent of “worst-that-could-happen” news.  In fact, the USA political, social, and economic [...]

Katie Couric’s Evolution to Leadership

Posted on February 7, 2011 by Christa Dhimo

While tiptoeing through the tulips of online nice-to-knows, I stumbled upon a time capsule of sorts. Er, wait a second.  That really doesn’t do it justice.  Let me try this again. While in search of what seems a nearly impossible task of satisfying my curious and insatiable mind for learning something new (that’s better), I [...]

Leadership: A Curtsy, A Bow, or A Handshake?

Posted on January 3, 2011 by Christa Dhimo

Happy New Year everyone! And a special Happy New Year to our USA southerly continental sister’s country of Brazil for ushering the new year with the inauguration of its first female President, Dilma Rousseff.  Folks, this is leadership news that is more noteworthy than Obama assuming office, and let me tell you why. Anyone care to [...]
