Making a Difference
Changing an organization, company culture or mind-set depends on knowing what to change, how to change, and, most importantly, why to change. Author Dean Gualco, public speaker and the owner of Torgun Consulting, explores how organizations and individuals can initiate, manage, and capitalize on change in this instructive guidebook. He explains ways to - recognize when it makes sense to change; - create a framework to manage change effectively; - harness imagination and originality to outpace competitors; and - encourage colleagues to embrace necessary change. Too often, change is viewed through a prism of conflict and negativity. Millions of people have lost their jobs because of changing technology, and others have lost their health and retirement benefi ts as organizations have cut costs. We find ourselves in a world where older people can't retire and younger people can't find jobs. But avoiding or hindering change won't solve anything; instead, it's important to tackle it head-on. In Making a Difference, you can discover how pursuing the right dreams at the right time and for the right reasons can change your life.

The Choices and Consequences of Our Age
There are winners and losers in a capitalistic society, but capitalism does not choose who is a winner and who is a loser. The winners are those who have the right idea, sacrifice their time and money, take risks, work hard, and have a little luck and help along the way. The losers are those who rarely dream of the impossible, waste their time, spend their money foolishly, lack the courage to take risks, and fail to dedicate themselves to achieving the rewards of their efforts. Winners should receive the greatest returns for their investments and the greatest of rewards for their endeavors. While wealth may be distributed unequally, it results more from an unequal dedication to acquire this ...

The Perfect Country
we just don’t seem to like each other anymore. We once built community centers and donated to libraries, joined sporting teams and attended civic meetings, swam in local pools and played in public parks, participated in street picnics and watched Fourth of July celebrations, went to church and supported social clubs, and cleaned town squares and help paint our neighbor’s house. where have those days gone? That seem like a bygone era, a relic of a different generation or different country. Today Republicans vilify the Democrats, and Democrats denigrate the Republicans. The poor despise the rich, and the rich ostracize the poor. Organizations mistreat employees, and employees detest organi...

A Nation of Businesses
By far the most fundamental change we face in the coming years, and decades, is the ability to obtain and maintain gainful employment for ourselves and our families. Nearly any study or statistics pronounces the age of organizations, in the era of employees, as rapidly ceasing to exist. Over 99% of all U.S. companies are small businesses, and nearly 80% of small businesses have no employees at all. Today, and for the foreseeable future, people are becoming less of an "employee" and more of an "owner," forcing everyone to "chart their own path." This fundamentally alters the concept of work, the notion of play, and the reality of life, destabilizing many and destroying others. Yet in the age of peril, we find an era of promise, one where the successful will be those who think of the impossible yet achieve the possible, who have an imagination that is unrivaled yet a determination that is unwavering, and who believe that profits are good but what you do with them are better. More than anything, though, the successful are those who build their own business, who make it on their own... depending on no one and relying on but a few. Be that person, and your future is secure.

Being the right employee may appear remote, but for those who work hard, think differently, adapt and adjust to changing environments, are loyal and care about their organization and its people, a good future can still be found. Becoming the right person may seem daunting, but for those who do t...
