The Power of Approachability

Guest Expert: Scott Ginsberg, Author, Speaker, That guy with the nametag
APPROACHABILITY is the defining characteristic of successful communicators.
- It helps your front line create unforgettable encounters
- It makes your customers feel comfortable and confident
- It allows your employees to communicate openly and effectively
- And it makes you a person that other people are magnetized to, want to do business with and will tell their friends about

I've been a fan of Scott Ginsberg since I read about him at Seth Godin's blog.
He is a really brilliant and brave marketer, and has been physically attacked, just for *wearing a name tag* all the time, everywhere he goes.
He is a gem, a gentleman, a genuis, and a pioneer of marketing tools and techniques.

Mahalo nui Yvonne! I have learned so much about blogging from you, for Lip-Sticking was one of the very first blogs I ever read, so this is quite a compliment, and I am very humbled by it.
E komo mai; All of your readers are indeed welcome to stop by, for the month is starting off with some wonderful stories shared about Mālama, and we have our sights set on answering this question this month: What is Caring in business and at work? We will continue to learn from each other and emerge the better for it.
Ho'ohana,
Rosa
