Drool, Britannia? Is the UK Failing the Cloud?
By Roger Strukhoff
Richard Davies wrote: The UK has a good crop of technology pioneers in cloud computing - for example ElasticHosts, FlexiScale, Flexiant, OnApp - and also some strong government initiatives such as G-Cloud. We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.

On my honor….

By: Scott McKain
Nov. 17, 2009 06:46 PM

It’s my pleasure to recommend to you to a new book with a timeless message about achieving enduring success as a leader.

My good buddy, Randy Pennington, has just released a completely updated edition of his book, “On My Honor, I Will: The Journey to INTEGRITY-DRIVEN® Leadership.” This book shows anyone — front line leader, CEO, parent, and community leaders — how to influence others through a leadership style that models integrity, honor, and duty.

Randy combines his extensive experience as a resource and advisor to executives with examples from the best of America’s distinguished leaders in business, government, and communities. “On My Honor, I Will” includes lessons from interviews with well known leaders such as Ross Perot and Mary Kay Ash as well as numerous other effective leaders from all walks of life.

Here is a book that says a leader’s true strength is not in his or her position, intellect, or determination. The leaders who inspire and challenge us to be and deliver our very best are distinguished by a reputation for integrity, duty, service, and honor.

You will lean how to:
• Integrate the principles of honor and integrity into your performance as a leader.
• Master the discipline of personal integrity to live a life that substance and meaning.
• Master the art of interpersonal integrity to create and nurture authentic relationships with others.
• Master the complexities of organizational integrity to build and sustain an organization that earns the trust of everyone with whom it comes in contact and is known for the integrity of its brand.
• Prepare yourself for future leadership challenges; and
• Grow the next generation of leaders who will make our companies, government agencies, and communities great.

This is the perfect book for everyone who wants to learn how to earn respect, credibility, commitment, and trust as a leader. (I’m grateful that Randy has quoted me in the book!) And, Randy Pennington is offering a gift to say thank you for helping him spread the word.

Purchase at least one copy of “On My Honor, I Will” this week, and you will receive over $150 worth of special gifts and learning resources. This package includes MP3 audios, E-Books, and downloadable reports from business and motivation experts such as:
• Larry Winget, New York Times best-selling author and host of the A&E series “Big Spender”
• Mark Sanborn, international best selling author of The Fred Factor
• Don Hutson, co-author of the New York Times best seller The One Minute Entreprenuer
• Joe Calloway, best selling author of Becoming a Category of One
• Phillip Van Hooser, author of the business best seller, Willie’s Way
• John Spence, author of Awesomely Simple
• Ron Karr, author of Lead, Sell, or Get Out of the Way
• Susan Friedmann, author of Riches in Niches
• Randy Pennington, author of the award winning book, Results Rule! Build a Culture that Blows the Competition Away

Here’s what to do!

Step One: Go HERE and click on the button that says “Gift With Purchase.”

Step Two: After you order “On My Honor, I Will,” return to the Gift With Purchase page and enter your order number from Amazon.com in the space provided. You will receive an email from Randy Pennington with the link to download your gifts.

Step Three: Amazon.com will send your books.

Remember! The special bonuses are only available if you purchase “On My Honor, I Will” between November 16 and November 20, 2009.

Be sure to tell your colleagues, customers, and friends about this special opportunity by forwarding this message to them now!

PS: “On My Honor, I Will” makes a great gift for graduates, Eagle Scouts, and Girl Scout Gold Award recipients.
