“Jan’s articles always teach me something new. Most of us managing an organization never stop to think but just go day to day managing by habit. Jan’s stories are well chosen from a literature I would never read on my own. I am always grateful for the fresh thinking she drops on my doorstep.”

Comments from Readers:

Lee Folger, President/Publisher, Baseball America, Durham, NC: Your emails and website do a nice job of providing specifics to high concepts. Lots of good applied stuff. There are many management consulting imperatives out there. The challenge is to translate those imperatives into specific actions and results on a day to day basis at an organization with real living people. Your stories help provide a daily context with which you apply to achieve an aspirational organizational/cultural objective. I share your belief in the power of stories as a way to tangibilize ideas/concepts into specific, relevant experiences. I think you do a great job of connecting people to powerful ideas.

Ray Evernham, CEO, Evernham Motorsports, Statesville, North Carolina: Jan is a friend and a go getter. I was fortunate enough to do a speaking class with her years ago and we’ve been tracking each other’s careers since. I enjoy receiving and reading her news letter E-zine. It always seems to offer some good advice or inspiration at the right time.

Greg Isenhour, President, Guts Inc; President, North Carolina Home Builders Association 2003: If I could capture what this newsletter provides for me in a simple phrase it would be “Ah-Hah”. Jan’s writing causes me to shift the way I am thinking. In particular I am reminded of the recent article, “Fear and Freedom”. There has not been a day since I read it that I have not thought about it – and it propels me to take action. The articles are fresh, thought provoking and they create a sense of readiness to shift my way of being or acting. Thank you for creating a difference in my life through your creative writing and willingness to share your space in this world with others. The universe is roaring with applause for what you give through “Business Class”.

Wade Harrison, Attorney, Wishart, Norris, Henninger and Pittman, PA, Burlington and Charlotte, North Carolina: I have received “Business Class” since its inception. I look forward to reading and learning from Jan’s stories. Our organization strives for a very high level of results-oriented service to business owners and their families. I have used Jan’s tips to facilitate team building and enhance our individual and collective service efforts.

Jim Carter, Senior Vice President, Sun Trust Bank, Chapel Hill, North Carolina: Business Class is a periodic reminder to those of us in the business world on just how to do business with “class”. Jan’s ability to turn factual stories into meaningful lessons for her readers is nothing short of sensational.

Eric Locher, Broker-In-Charge, Cottingham-Chalk & Associates, Charlotte, North Carolina: Those are great suggestions. I have printed them off and have hung them on my wall!

Mike Capps, Mortgage Planner, Integrated Mortgage Strategies, LTD, Chapel Hill, North Carolina: Thanks for the story – I was recently going thru some headaches, and as usual, I get this article from you. Thanks for the boost.

Kevin Bullard, Leadership Consultant, Greensboro, North Carolina: The Business Class articles sent by Jan are timely nuggets of leadership & management wisdom. In this age of info-glut, Jan makes her articles stand out from all the others because they’re personal. Jan’s articles don’t just tell a story, they tell her stories, which makes them
all the more interesting and informative. I’m a happy subscriber!

Sue Chen, Carolina Parent Magazine, Chapel Hill, North Carolina: What I love best about Jan’s newsletter is that it reminds me what’s most important in sales, taking care of my CLIENTS! It’s easy to get caught up in the busy daily to do list and forget that without my customers I wouldn’t have a pay check. Jan’s email helps me prioritize. Customer service comes first.

Most of us managing an organization never stop to think but just go day to day managing by habit. Jan’s stories are well chosen from a literature I would never read on my own.
