It’s a New Dawn, It’s a New Day, It’s a New Life For Small Business… and I’m Feeling Good »

Posted: January 30, 2010, 09:56 AM by Leslie Grossman

If you haven’t listened to the song “Feeling Good” recorded by some of the greatest singers from Nina Simone to Frank Sinatra to Michael Buble,, it’s time to go to You Tube and listen again. I’d like to make it the theme song for America’s small businesses this year. President Obama’s new focus on small business in his State of the Union address makes “a new dawn” possible.

Posted: November 7, 2009, 08:24 AM by Leslie Grossman

I’m in ecstasy. My NY Yankees won the World Series. And they did it 9 minutes before my birthday. I got the best birthday gift money can’t buy. My happiness caused me to reflect about why I love the Yankees so much. The answer popped ino my head - because of their leadership. Okay, I am a leadership fanatic, maybe not as much as a Yankee fanatic, but, I am obsessed with always looking at why and how people lead.
