Three Ground Rules for Inspiring Productivity
By Alex Feldman, an EO San Diego member and founder of Alexander Daas
An underlying critical element to any successful business is talent. The people behind your logo fuel the organization, cultivating company culture and energy in the process. And the right culture and energy bring with it excitement, eagerness to succeed and growth. When I think back on my years in retail and operations, I can’t help but recall the team members who made a difference—they were the driving force of my company. To set these people up for success, I employed a few ground rules that have proved successful in creating an environment that drives productivity, enthusiasm and loyalty.

4 Lessons Learned From Entrepreneurs in Cars
by Richard Cooper, an EO Toronto member and CEO of TotalDebtFreedom.ca
Ever since I had a poster of that white Lamborghini Countach on my wall as a kid I’ve always been a huge car fan.
It wasn’t until I became an entrepreneur that I decided to have “idea sex”, and mash-up my two big passions. So Entrepreneurs in Cars was born.
Many things in my life are energy vampires, but spending time around fast cars, and successful entrepreneurs isn’t, it recharges me, and some of the best times I had last year was filming episodes of entrepreneurs in cars.
The concept is simple, put the entrepreneur in the passenger seat of their own car, and record a video interview allowing them to tell their story.

5 tips for the “Momtrepreneur”
By Leana Greene, an Overdrive contributor and founder and CEO of kidsinthehouse.com, the world’s largest parenting video library.
Eliminate the Guilt!
Simply put, there just isn’t time for everything, and you have to stop feeling guilty about that. I learned early on that the work/life balance is a myth. It’s not realistic to expect to create the perfect balance between being a CEO and a parent. There will be certain days when you just have to work extra, and there will be other days when you get to spend those extra hours with your kids. Do not feel guilty if every day isn’t always a 50/50 split. Instead, make an effort to focus on your kids when you are with them and focus on the job when you are at work.
