I recently wrote a couple of posts on the Stepcase Lifehack website that addresses the challenges of being productive in the the new corporate world of information overload.
Here are the links to the articles:
Why Jamaicans Need to Follow Trini Politics
A snap election has been called in Trinidad, and Jamaicans are not paying attention to what is happening.
Read my two articles that appeared today and learn why Jamaican business-people need to pay very close attention to the latest political developments in the twin-island republic.
Here is my letter to the editor of the Jamaica Gleaner that was awarded “Letter of the Day.”

Building Your Own Network
I recently wrote an article on the topic of building your own Super Network across the Caribbean region.
The Weekly Review Video
Recently I took on a pretty difficult topic — how to fix the weekly review that is the cornerstone of so many time management systems.
The result was a video that is well over 20 minutes long, that has apparently upset some of the established thinking. I published it over at my time management blog: 2Time: Time Management 2.0
A Recent TV Interview
Back in September, I was interviewed by Aldo Owen of Businessuite… long before I became his co-host on Bess100FM’s Businessuite Today.
We discussed the topic of corporate culture here in the Caribbean, and I gave my views on whether or not culture can be changed.
New Radio Program
Good news! I now have the pleasure of co-hosting a fairly new radio program here in Jamaica, on BESS FM – 100.1.
It’s a business program, and I got off the mark on February 1st with a focus on the topic of the acquisition of Air Jamaica by Caribbean Airlines.
I’ll be working for a while with Aldo Owen, who is working alongside me while I develop some of the skills needed to be a good radio host.
Anyone can tune in to the show at http://bessfm.com and hear it from 5pm-7pm when it’s live on the air and internet. Both the audio and video of the control booth are on the site, and now and then we interact with our listeners via the chat room.
Before I came on the station, I did do a few guest appearances. Here is an 11 minute recording of a radio interview I did in late 2009 on the topic of corporate culture.

The New Networking is Retiring
I recently decided to close out my ebook The New Networking: Caribbean 2008 at the end of the year, in order to make way for some new ideas and a new e-book at some point.
While I don’t plan to write its successor anytime soon, I recall discovering Facebook just as the ebook was about to be released, and having to “wheel and come again” with a section devoted to that social networking tool. Of course, today Facebook has been supplemented with Twitter… how things change!
Here is the link to the ebook if you don’t have it. Please pass this information on to your friends also — this will be their last chance to receive the ebook from me: The New Networking: Caribbean 2008 http://fwconsulting.com/newnetworking
