From Poverty to Multi-Millionaire: The Secrets to Manifestation

January 29, 2008 · Leave a Comment

This weekend we had the opportunity to hear internationally renowned author and president and publisher of New World Library, Marc Allen tell his story of how he learned the secrets of manifestation, which provide the foundation for his latest book, The Greatest Secret of All.

In his new book, Marc Allen shares the how-to details of the exact process that he used to turned his life around to create huge success. Twenty four pages into the book, I’ve now come to my own understanding of this great secret. You’ve got to live the process to make it work for you. Here are some valuable tips from the book for starters:

  1. Write your ideal scene on paper, your dream life five years in the future.
  2. Recognize that within that scene lies several goals. Write those down.
  3. Create a one-page plan for achieving each of your goals.
  4. Write your goals as affirmations stated in the present tense.

You may be looking at these three tips, saying to yourself, “I knew that”. You’re right; there’s nothing new here. What is new is up to you. This time, look at this exercise as being the recipe to create the outcomes you want in your life. It is really that simple. The rest is all about making this process a habit. And if that makes you cringe, ask yourself this question—What could be more important?

Why Is Genentech # 2 On CNNMoney.com’s 100 Best Companies To Work For In 2007 List?

January 24, 2008 · Leave a Comment

In “CNNMoney.com’s 100 Best Companies To Work For In 2007: Tips For Attracting and Retaining Your Human Capital” we chronicled some of the Google policies, philosophies, and strategies that make it one of the most coveted places to work.

Genentech ranked #2 on this list is another example for HR and OD managers on how a company successfully attracts and retains it’s human capital. Genentech “considered the founder of the biotech field” has been “delivering on the promise of biotechnology for more than 30 years” according to their website.

Perks: Genentech offers employees a generous 6 week paid sabbatical to every employee upon completion of six years of service. Genentech’s Entire benefits listing page is a rich and diverse offering that could be mined for ideas by resourceful researchers.

Full jobs sharing program allows employees flexibility. This is important to employees wishing to start families and people looking for work-life balance.

Training: Each employee receives 150 hours per year of training–a robust offering. Utilizing Genentech’s search engine on their site, the term “training” returned 140 documents.

Tuition Assistance Programs that reimburse employees 100% up to $10,000 per year on Computer training, Personal Growth, Career Management and Diversity training are only some of the ongoing, on-site courses available to Genentech employees.

Final analysis:

What can not be reviewed is Genentech’s corporate culture a Google like spirit in allowing their employees to follow their intuitions, lead by example, and create outside the normal work environment. They foster entrepreneurial endeavors, collaboration, and teamwork within a focused corporate culture allowing employees the freedom to “stretch out” and reach for their goals.

CNNMoney.com’s 100 Best Companies To Work For In 2007: Tips For Attracting and Retaining Your Human Capital

January 23, 2008 · 5 Comments

CNNMoney.com’s list of 100 Best Companies to Work For 2007 is a valuable source of information for any Human Resources-Organizational Development director or consultant interested in understanding how to overcome employee challenges for 2008. What makes a company great starts with the quality of it’s human capital. We will review Google, first, illustrating the “why” behind their incredible ability to attract and retain talent.

What separates the Top Companies of 2007?

Google: The obvious answer people think of first is the incredible array of perks including gourmet food, campus lifestyle, hairstylists, dry cleaners, swimming spa, free doctors onsite and other perks too numerous to mention here.

Yet the real answer to why Google is such a sought after company is the philosophy:

1. 10 Things Google Has Found To Be True: is a document that outlines Google’s philosophies of doing business. These are their core values which allows and supports it’s employees in their vision with a open forum of communication of ideas.

2. Entrepreneurial spirit: is alive and well at Google. This spirit, as evidenced by the policy which encourages engineers to spend 20% of their work time on independent projects, is the main reason for Google’s success– employee loyalty and development.

3. Competitive Balance: Google has a collection of talent with some of the most intelligent, brilliant minds in the world. This best of breed talent pool ensures an environment that fosters personal growth, leadership through core group projects, independent projects which allow employees to “stretch out” and an ongoing training program of 100 hours per employee each year.

4. Healthy Peer Pressure: to perform and grow is constant and the driving factor that maintains this healthy competitive balance. The company has a policy where an employee may take a leave/sabbatical (paid) if they feel stagnant or in need of direction.

5. New talent: the final piece of the puzzle that makes Google’s competitive balance corporate culture go. Every year the cream of the recruiting crop applies to Google. This constant stream of fresh talent provides the last piece of “incentive” for current Googlers. If they fail to grow and improve there are virtually thousands of applicants salivating at the opportunity to replace them.

Google is the greatest example of intention manifesting into desired real outcomes of any of the top 100 company.

How to Influence Your World through Intention

January 16, 2008 · 5 Comments

What is intention?

Intention is a deliberate effort to make or influence a change. Unlike desire, which is simply focusing on an outcome, intention includes an executable plan which will lead to a desired outcome.

Why the focus on intention?

You are constantly designing your destiny through your thoughts. Scientists have discovered that your thoughts are not insignificant pops of energy; rather they are a driving force that has the ability to affect molecular structure.

What steps can I take to use intention to influence my life?

  1. Define your intentions into clear, specific thoughts.
  2. Visualize the manifestation of your intention.
  3. Mentally focus on your intention as often as you can.
  4. Take the external actions necessary to support your internal work.
  5. Believe in your ability to make your intention into your reality.
  6. Build confidence in your ability to influence change by noting when you have effected your reality through your intentions.

We will be offering more tips for creating an effective intention practice very soon. So please stay tuned.

The Powerful Truth About Our Ability to Influence and Change Our World: Pioneering A New Frontier

January 14, 2008 · Leave a Comment

susan-outside-122806-reduced.JPG
by Susan Hanshaw

In 1995 I had one of those life experiences that led me to change my beliefs about the way that the world worked. My husband had left me abruptly for another woman. I was in so much pain that this feeling led me to discover metaphysics and how I could change what I was experiencing from the inside out. I became a serious student of metaphysics and felt compelled to share these powerful understandings. Since my studies in metaphysics, I came up with the idea to launch Inner Architect with partner Dean Guadagni.

My idea for inner architect was first inspired by Lynne McTaggart’s “The Intention Experiment” and Fred Alan Wolf’s workTaking the Quantum Leap.” Although I do not have a formal education in quantum physics, I have now learned much while absorbing myself in studying the science. My findings are nothing short of a new frontier as I apply their implications to personal development and growth.

1. Quantum physics has brought forth a new basis for understanding how the world works which supports what metaphysical philosophers have long instinctively believed.

2. The end result is a new frontier which calls for a reorganization of beliefs so that you can reap the benefits of what has been discovered about an individual’s ability to influence outcomes.

The mission of inner architect is to help you to understand the powerful truth about your ability to influence and change your world. I invite you to email me at susan@innerarchitect.com if I can answer any questions you may have.

Work-Life Balance: Hillary Clinton Feeling The Strain Many Americans Feel And Creating New Reality

January 12, 2008 · Leave a Comment

This past week Hillary Clinton had what many felt was an emotional outpouring uncharacteristic of her seemingly stoic demeanor. The media questioned her stability and if she was feeling the strain of a possible failed primary in Iowa and the strain brought on by work-life balance issues of being on the campaign trail.

Reality is much different than perception. Simply put the Clinton camp understood the need for Hillary to express herself in a more heartfelt and open manner, allow her supporters to realize she is human and fragile, and they advised her that she needed to connect with her constituents now rather than later. The end results are stunning:

Clinton took the advice of her managers and set the intention to explain herself, reveal her vulnerability, and exhibit the strength it takes to put yourself out there.

Hillary created her reality with her thoughts and intention (action plan of desire). Against all odds and polls available up to the day of the election, Hillary triumphed and won the New Hampshire primary. This is one of the best examples of creating your reality through thought and intention yet.

If a national figure in front of a nation and the entire world can create such a powerful change in her reality, so can any of us (with far fewer witnesses breathing down our neck) at anytime in any place.

Human Capital Challenges Facing Corporate America in 2008: 5 Questions About Employee Development

January 11, 2008 · 4 Comments

Human Capital has been defined as the capabilities, experiences, time, skills, and knowledge of the individual employee. The greatest employee challenge facing corporate America is the strategic personal development of their human capital in order to ensure effective utilization of this talent. In order to properly manage this vital resource, firms must identify their challenges and then implement training and personal development curriculum for employee enrichment.

According to Google’s Liane Hornsey– HR Director for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa regarding employee development:

“The box I would like to tick for next year is doing something really funky and different with career development, because [HR directors] are all battling with this issue.”

The following questions can act as a guide:

1. Have you identified your company’s human capital challenges?

Retention, Communication, Leadership, Team Building, Purpose, Motivation, Stress, Work-Life Balance, and Recognition are a few of the issues facing companies today

2. Are employees optimizing their potential?

Do you provide personal development training in-house, outsourced education programs, or do you allow your employees to choose their enrichment programs and provide them with a yearly stipend?

3. What are you doing to help employee development and growth?

Are educational programs in place; how does your firm decide which programs and training will be the most effective in improving performance?

4. Does your company foster a “performance-driven” culture?

Is personal growth training tied to incentives or employee compensation?

5. Does your HR and education strategies align and support your corporate strategies?

How did your organization implement these strategies and were different sectors of your workforce and management allowed to participate in the alignment of these strategies?

Answer these 5 questions and your company is on the path to creating a stronger more effective workforce and culture in 2008.
