Steve Jobs was a visionary and a shrewd businessman.
Not everybody can be Steve Jobs! He brought so many gifts to the business world. He was a talented inventor and a product perfectionist. He was responsible for the look, and feel of all of the Apple products. He also had a knack for knowing what the consumer wanted…even before we did! Steve Jobs also had a great head for business, which is something most inventor/trailblazers don’t have all wrapped up in one person; and that’s why all astute business entrepreneurs are getting on the business coaching bandwagon.
Steve Jobs was the exception to the rule. He was gifted in many areas, while most business entrepreneurs are only gifted in one …

It was inevitable…the Burger King Mascot was fired for more ‘healthy’ marketing…Chris Rugh coaching in business will teach you to read your clients’ needs before it’s too late.
They should have seen it coming! McDonalds got it, but Burger King didn’t; and the company has paid the price! Everything you read in the news these days, or see on television, is about a healthier, nutritious conscious focus for Americans. The discussion is about the re-design of the old government food chart, portion sizes, and food choices for adults and their kids. When the first lady of the United States has kids doing jumping jacks on The White House lawn, health and fitness have reached center stage.
So what the …

Mayor McGinn is two-faced.
In case you aren’t following the news, there is a huge protest going down at Westlake Park in Seattle. This is a part of the “Occupy Seattle” movement, to which I’m a huge follower. “Occupy Seattle’s” main focus is to get our government and country back from all the giant corporations that affect us all. All in all, citizens, including us Seattleites, are finally getting off our fat asses and being proactive and using our voices. Something that should have been done a long time ago.
In effort to show my support, I donated a bunch of port-o-potties for those taking the time to join the protest. After all, standing out there for hours …

Successful business entrepreneurs have realized the value of investing in coaching for business…how about you?
Coaching for business owners isn’t a new concept. Hiring a coach can be the best money you ever spend to get your business on track. The concept of business coaching arose from the world of sports. Its football season now! Football means drinking your favorite brew, eating all your favorite tailgating food…it’s almost as good as Christmas!
So think for a minute about your favorite college or pro team. Whether they’re winning or losing right now…one thing is certain…it’s about the coaching. If your team is winning, the coaches have done fabulous recruiting and they are mentoring players. They’re also demonstrating that they know how …

So the word’s out. The legendary Steve Jobs passed away this past Wednesday, October 5th, 2011. The news of his passing has flooded the media as well as blog and Facebook posts alike. So this begs the question, what is Apple going to do now?
I could go on and on about how wonderful Steve Jobs was and how his creativity and unique ideas sparked innovations that no one had dreamed of and changed the world. But we all know all that. I’m not trying to take away from his great accomplishments, not at all. But it goes without saying. He touched lives all over the world. Most of us have iPods or an iPhone, and we all know …

It had to seem like a dream come true for motivational speaker and business coach, Tony Robbins. However, his show was canceled after two episodes…what went wrong?
Oh man! This show, “Breakthrough with Tony Robbins” starring the well-known business coach and motivational speaker, appeared to have everything going for it.

The site showed over 9,000 ‘likes’ and fan after fan had written glowing comments about Robbins on the website.
The show aired on a Tuesday night time slot at 8PM. The premise? We were gonna see …

I bet you can’t guess what Jane Fonda and I have in common?
Give up? It’s all about rehearsing. Let me explain. I like to surf…I’m not talking about with a surfboard…I’m talking about with a remote. So the other night, when I was surfing along…who catches my eye, but actress, child of Hollywood royalty, and activist, Jana Fonda. She’s out there pedaling her newest book. I’m half listening to her interview, but something relevant caught my attention. She was asked a question and responded about how she “rehearses the future.” I thought this was a clever thing for an actress to say, ‘rehearsing.’ But it also got me to thinking about business coaching.
What is business coaching?
If you haven’t …

Both of us make more than 10,000 an hour on any given work day!
I don’t know Larry Page, Founder and CEO of Google personally, and we aren’t members of the same country club, and we don’t hang out at the same exotic resorts when on vacation. But, we do have, at least one thing in common…we regularly make more than $10,000 an hour when we’re working.
BUT, get a load of this crap. The folks at Google are telling me, “Chris, this is an outrageous claim!” And in response I say, “Well…your CEO, Larry Page is doing it!” Sounds to me like they’re being hypocritical! But you be the judge…crunch the numbers with me, and see if …
