"In August 2019, someone at Japan's Toyota Boshoku Corp. received fraudulent payment instructions by email to send 4 billion yen (about $37 million) to a third party - which they did. "We became aware that the directions were fraudulent shortly after the leakage," the company disclosed in a statement.

The company reacted quickly once it realized the fraud and took appropriate actions to recover their losses - a prospect experts believe unlikely. If it can't recover the money, it might be forced to restate its earnings forecast downward. That could have a negative impact on its stock price..."

"The scope of information in the various answers I found made my head swim, but I quickly deduced that digital marketing was a constantly expanding collection of methods to deliver branding messages.

To put it simply: Digital marketing is a way to build your brand online and help your ideal customers understand who you are, what you stand for, and why they should learn more about you..."

"But the truth is, even tech companies suffer, especially in lead generation. It's not really about getting leads per se but about getting high quality leads that convert.

If you are an IT/tech company and you are asking, 'How can our company overcome this challenge', it starts with a couple more questions:..."

"Right out of college I started my first job and spent 21 years there. I thought I had secured my career path and that was where I was going to stay. As my career responsibilities grew I wasn't as fired up as I was earlier in my career and I began to not enjoy my work any longer. Little did I know that I was actually experiencing disengagement because the higher up the career ladder I got, the farther away I got from my natural strengths.

I didn't understand why I was feeling this "funk" in this part of my career until I took the Clifton StrengthsFinder profile and worked with a coach to become more self aware of what I did best and what were my true weakness areas..."

"We all make mistakes; sadly, all too often that includes justifying why we did (or said) what we did. And to make us feel better, we self rationalize why we did it, and add 'why' and 'however' to what we're saying in hopes of lessening our error. Wrong!

Why is being accountable so difficult? Maybe because we don't want to look bad? Because we fear others may lose their appreciation for us? That we're unable to be vulnerable since relationships and maybe even job security could be impacted?..."

"That has been a badly failing method for as long as I have been in sales so lets talk about the B2B Sales Playbook of success. What does it really take?...

"We've all been there at work. A perceived injustice, a mean look, a discourteous or catty remark. The confusion, then the anger sets in. The poison as The Four Agreement's author Don Miguel Ruiz discusses so eloquently in his toltec wisdom guide has now been drunk... by you. Given to you potentially by an unwitting accomplice who started the day off wr . Hurt, you find someone to share your pain with. Someone who can validate your view..."
