By Dawn Lyons, BNI Executive Director San Francisco Bay Area The number one question we receive is “how do we grow our chapter?” Well, the answer is simple, sponsor new members into the chapter.

I learned about “Murphy’s Law” in graduate school. It basically says that “what can go wrong, will go wrong.” Although this law feels very pessimistic, there is value to it. It gives a framework for people to look for the flaws in their thinking. When one does that effectively, it’s easier to address potential issues […] The post Misner’s Corollary to M […]
I ended the year with a humorous graphic on my social media that said: Dear 2021: I don’t want any trouble from you. Just come in, sit in the corner, don’t touch anything, and keep your mouth shut. Although it was pithy and pretty funny, there is an important flip side to this sentiment. That […] The post 2020 – Finding the Good in Bad Times appeared first […]
After four decades in the business world, I have found that these three concepts truly summarize an entrepreneur’s recipe for success. First, you must be passionate about what you deliver to your customers and clients. Nothing great in life has ever been accomplished without passion. This starts by making sure you (and your team) are […] The post Passion, […]
Recently, my assistant, Dana made a couple suggestions to me. Afterwards, she asked if I minded her giving these suggestions. I immediately said that not only did I “not” mind her ideas, I actually wanted her to share them with me. I then told her the following story about an experience I had many years […] The post We Don’t Pay You To Think! appeared firs […]
The world can be a dark and contentious place. Illness, famine, poverty, hostility, and desperation are all around us. But it doesn’t have to be that way. The world can be a better place. We can make a choice — a choice to be a voice of change, a change that can transform the world […] The post Givers Gain® is Transformational appeared first on BNI.

Is there room for intuition in business? Yes, most definitely. Decades ago, I may not have thought that, but over the years I have changed my opinion and believe that intuition can be another tool in the business toolbelt. The definition of intuition is the “direct perception of truth or facts, independent of any reasoning […] The post Is There Room for I […]
by: Erin Perrin, Mortgage Expert with Academy MortgageQueen City BNI, Burlington, Vermont We’ve all heard the saying “glass half empty or glass half full.” These are interesting times we’re living in, and sometimes I find it’s hard to be that glass-half-full kind of person. Mind you, every day I am still telling my boys “the […] The post Obligation vs. Oppor […]
With everything going on in the world today, we thought it would be a good time to take a step back and talk about diversity, and more specifically, about diversifying your business network. Developing a truly diverse network is not only the right thing to do, it is also the smart thing to do. Because […] The post Being Intentional About Diversity appeared […]

I am thankful that my work and personal travels have allowed me to experience many things and learn a great deal. One lesson that has truly resonated with me is: no matter our country, race, color, marital status, gender, religion, sexual orientation, age, disability, or politics: at our core, we are all the same.

Joannie Sirefman, is a recent former Vice President and has our well-being at heart when she speaks. It is nice to hear about insurance from someone you consider a friend. She spoke about having cancer patients covered with more than adequate insurance in order to be comfortable. She brought a statistic to the conversation that really got me. It was the reality that 1 in 5 persons would be diagnosed with Cancer. Which if you looked around the room, was a scary thought in which we needed to prepare for.
Her subject was focused on the “Cancer Classic Plan”. She was able to show us numbers of how it really worked.
Here is a little on Aflac in which Joannie has chosen as the carrier she can most support in their vision and mission: Aflac pays cash benefits to the individual and does not conflict with any other insurance. With medical costs – co-pays and deductibles going through the roof we can help off set those bills when someone is sick or hurt. Our programs are affordable, guaranteed renewable and portable. Ask for it where you work!
