As a small business owner, it may seem unnecessary to maintain a data storage system. Today, every business generates massive amounts of data regardless of the organization’s size. Data management is necessary for small businesses to ensure effective planning and communication, minimize errors and support regulatory compliance. 

While storage management may initially appear challenging, creating a system can make it easier. You can utilize your large data sets more effectively through careful planning and the proper tools to improve operations, enhance customer experience, and build your brand. Here are some helpful tips to protect and make the most of your information.

1. Remove Redundant Data

The best thing about Cloud storage is that it’s a safe place to manage the storage of your data to prevent physical damage, theft, and cyberattacks. So, you can get to your files remotely, reducing the need for costly servers and software. Removing redundant

Like trust, respect is a precious social currency in the context of intelligent leadership. Intelligent leaders know that their positions do not grant them any implicit respect. If they want the respect of their peers and reports, they must earn it. Authentic, caring, and empowering leadership automatically earns respect, appreciation, and admiration.

You can’t ask for, demand, or beg for respect. In today’s workplace and in the context of the horizontal hierarchies that modern leadership has introduced, leaders and employees must earn and offer respect.

On one hand, respect is an indispensable component of civilized human existence. However, it’s also a powerful leadership tool. As Mormon leader Thomas S. Monson once remarked, when we treat people as they are, they will likely remain as they are. When we treat them as if they were what their potential allows them to be, they

What is Unconditional Responsibility?

Let me ask you… If I suggest taking unconditional responsibility in all aspects of your life, what thoughts and feelings come up for you?

Many of us get defensive at this idea. Sure, we’re responsible for plenty of things. But… unconditionally responsible? No way! What about other people? World events? Traffic? The weather? Viruses?

That’s a completely understandable and human reaction. And, I’m not suggesting you take responsibility for any of that. I am suggesting you accept unconditional responsibility for your response and intention, in every situation.

In this article, we’ll explore what unconditional responsibility in leadership and life actually looks like, including:


What is Unconditional Responsibility?

How Do You Communicate with C-Level Executives?

Let me ask you… how would you approach a meeting with a high-level executive?

As a leadership coach, I’m sometimes asked if I communicate the same way with different people across all levels of an organization, especially in terms of top management communication. Essentially, should we speak with executives and senior leaders the same way we speak with colleagues?

It’s a great question, and the answer is both yes, and no.

Yes, because humanity is the heart of all communication, and we connect best with each other on that level. No, because top executives often work at a different pace and level of responsibility. For interactions to go well, it’s key to be aware of those differences, and to create ways to work with them.

If you’ve ever met directly with a C-level executive (“C” as in CEO, CFO, CTO, CXO, etc.), you
