The potential exposure provided by posting on LinkedIn Pulse can be as great as having an opinion-editorial (op-ed) published in The Wall Street Journal. The potential downside can be equally huge. There is little traffic. No likes. No comments. That data - or the lack of them - are made public on the Pulse site. Your client looks bad. The good news is that Pulse platform allows you to delete. And that's what I recommend. Products fail and are taken off the market.

FLOPPED! Usually your flops are only flesh wounds, and they look worse than they are. The more dangerous cuts come when our flops interfere with our message by deadening the audience response, inadvertently contradict our intent or ideas, or tear down our credibility.

Presentation Recovery after a flop A business presenter should never try to be a comedian. So when a joke flops - what do you do? Watch how one of the best, Johnny Carson, recovers from a flop - hereeeees Johnny! Always be ready to recover when things flop. Yes, it is a good idea to include humor, but don't relay on the humor to make your point. We can learn a lot from stand up comedians whose job is to be funny and make people laugh.

And yet, while he will indeed leave the campaign as nominee, he will also leave it weakened by evasiveness and flip-flopping. The personal characteristics that enable others to believe in us the most, are often the ones coached out of us as being most likely to frighten the horses. The Republican nomination process for the candidate to face President Obama this November, has demonstrated this supremely.

A lot has been written about Mitt Romney’s flip flopping on important philosophical and public policy issues, but does he have a greater problem with the GOP electorate? Perhaps Romney appears too smart, as in the intellectual variety. You don’t have to be Bill Maher (he calls the GOP the “stupid party”) to acknowledge that [.].
