TIP OF THE WEEK: The Road to Hell is Paved With Good Intentions….Results Are What Count By Connie Thanasoulis Most of us agree that the road to Hell is paved with good intentions. If so, then the following must also be true: the road to Heaven is paved with exceptional results! Results mean everything to profitable businesses. In fact, there are four key components to delivering exceptional results: 1. Anticipate risks and obstacles and plan how to cut through them like a hot knife through butter. 2. Know your most critical priorities and spend your time there, not on the unimportant stuff that gets you nowhere. 3. Make sure your processes are streamlined and that they ensure that your clients receive superior service always. 4. Do the above consistently and with passion. Passion makes all the difference. Connie Thanasoulis, co-founder of SixFigureStart, was former head of campus recruiting for Citigroup, Merrill Lynch and Pfizer.
