Awards are great, but one of the greatest honors that I think that I could have received is to be interviewed by another leader. Manager, Leader, Coach Ron Hurst from Developing Leaders and Material Leadership has recently interviewed me for a new series of podcasts that he is putting together on the topic of purpose. I am quite honored and humbled by his desire to interview me and share some of the management by God story. The large focus of the interview was on "purpose". He wanted to know about how mbG has either helped me to realize or refine the my purpose. I believe, as Ron does, that purpose is one of the most important aspects of being a leader. It is out of purpose that one finds direction. Without purpose, we are simply wandering from random points to ran

Hooray. The FA is to bid for the 2018 World Cup and it’s almost certain England will not only win that, but the whole tournament too. After all, that’s what happened in ’66. Omens don't come any bigger. Cue spontaneous street parties in the shires, the uncorking of vintage port in social clubs, and revelry so infectious it marries the warring classes and unites a nation. Call David Beckham. Call

While poking around online recently, I found an older article from Indiana University bass professor and Contrabass Conversations guest Lawrence Hurst: The modern double bass is not a true member of either the violin or viol families. Most likely its first general shape was that of a violone, the largest member of the viol family. Some of the earliest basses extant are violones, (including C-shaped sound holes) that have been fitted with modern trappings. At the beginning of the 17th century, Michael Praetorius (1571-1621) described a violon da gamba sub-bass, a five-stringed specimen tuned DD EE AA D G. While this monster (over 8 feet tall) was tuned very much like the modern bass, it must be considered an unusual bass instrument for any era. Praetorius noted that the player of this instrument had to read the regular notation for the bass line even though the sounds he produced were actually an octave lower than what he saw, a practice that is t

This week's Contrabass Conversations episode features an excellent interview with Indiana University double bass professor Lawrence Hurst. Double bassist (and frequent Contrabass Conversations guest) John Grillo co-hosted the interview with me. You'll be hearing the first part of our interview this week, and we'll be putting out more of this interview in the next few weeks.You will also be hearing a track from the fabulous double bass virtuoso DaXun Zhang. DaXun was a student of Mr. Hurst at Indiana University, and he is currently on faculty at Northwestern University.

John Grillo and I just interviewed Indiana University double bass professor Lawrence Hurst last night for Contrabass Conversations. This interview was both a thrill and an honor for me to do, and it is an example of the amazing possibilities that podcasting provides for sharing, educating, and entertaining the global double bass community.I know that bass players from all walks of life will really get a lot out of this interview, and I look forward to hearing from listeners after this interview is released. I will be putting out the first part of our conversation with Mr. Hurst next weekend.It was great to do this interview wit John Grillo as co-host. John studied at Indiana University with Mr. Hurst for his undergraduate degree, and as a result John had a unique and different set of questions that I would not have had the forethought to ask. I think that listeners will really enjoy the dynamic between the three of us on this episode. What a great opportunity and pleasure it was t

Thanks to FALK for suggesting that I should download the 4 track EP Spread The News by UK singer/songwriter James Hurst. The EP was released to the internet a little more than a year ago, so you can say that not all good news travel fast. The songs were written, recorded, performed etc. by the man himself in his living room. These songs could easily have come out as the typical singer/songwriter/acoustic stuff, but James Hurst adds nice pounding drums to the productions as well as plenty of electric guitars (at least to three of the tracks), which helps making this really interesting stuff.+ Ok+ Spread The News+ Happy Lonely+ Forget Your Face

Yesterday, I received the fourth annual compilation of Uncle Mark's Gift Guide & Almanac. It's author, Mark Hurst, is one of my favorite marketers. He operates www.goodexperience.com, the GEL Conference, and www.thisisbroken.com - all interesting and compelling ways to sell the need for great customer experiences to America's businesses. Small business should take note of Mark's expertise - at least by receiving his e-newsletter and the prolific examples on his "This is Broken" blog. But, now we come to Holiday Season 2006 and Uncle Mark's Gift Guide. Mark apparently is a cool uncle and as a tech-type, he gets a lot of those questions from Great Uncle Joe and Cousin Jane about which gift or camera or computer they should buy. So, he compiled the answers into a frank, funny, direct and useful guide. And he spread it far and wide. In this guide, we see the usefulness of authentic communication, the providing of value, and the leadership he exudes by listing only ONE recommenda
