There is much literature on sales and sellers: what to say, how to argue, how close a sale?, What to do in front of a client and not to do, but very little about the buyers.
Some time ago I wrote a post entitled “Methods of negotiation: The tricks of good buyers,” he described eight possible ways in which a buyer can act. At that time someone said it was a traditional way of addressing the relationship between buyer and seller and forgetting about the famous strategy of “win-win” where buyer and seller are not opponents but partners seeking a satisfactory outcome for both.
At this point, I think it might be interesting to go deeper into the profile you may have a buyer, who actually buy and what position we take as vendors in each case. Continue reading ‘Who and what our buyer?’ »

Last week, I have met people who work for large organizations. The feeling of “happiness” for the work they develop is largely conditioned by the contribution of their ideas to the organization. The relationship of satisfaction and therefore not measured by compensation for the participation. It’s like saying: “I work here for anything, let me participate, not just being.”
In the background is a reflection of what is happening in society. In a world hyper, we thought that participation makes us more “close” to what is happening and so we demonstrate in our lives, increasingly digital. However, unlike the Internet, where everything is open and dynamic, professional life begins to suffer the evil of the pyramid, where to get the integration of people and mutual commitment, is becoming a science fiction novel.
And meanwhile, out there, people with talent and courage, which are many, they begin to realize that it is possible to find other levels of job satisfaction, turning his talents in working groups, conferences, participation in projects or simply organizing events, meetings collaborative workshops. In a horizontal relationship, which is what is happening in the world, participation is the rule and control is the anecdote. Almost like in the life of organizations.
