We all make mistakes, and when we do, we likely end up causing someone else pain. When this occurs, we should always make an apology. When that happens, it's high time for us to offer our apologies. Nevertheless, it is not sufficient to merely utter the words. We certainly hope that we don't spend too much time in the proverbial doghouse. On the other hand, if we do make a mistake, the following seven steps to a genuine apology will hopefully get us out of trouble and result in fewer future offenses. RECOGNIZE YOUR ERROR AND CONTEMPLATE WHY YOU BEHAVED IN SUCH A MANNER. If we only say "I'm sorry" to avoid getting into trouble with someone we care about, then our apology does not carry much weight. It is absolutely necessary to pinpoint the problem in order for us to offer an appropriate apology. If that isn't possible, all we want is your immediate forgiveness.

Sales leaders are always searching for novel approaches to enhance procedures, motivate their people, unlock efficiency, and ultimately complete more deals. One of the most important qualities of a sales leader is vigilance in the pursuit of providing sellers with everything they need to succeed. With new technology and tactics developing nearly every day, this endeavor is now much more difficult. Making that quest more difficult? There are a million methods to evaluate an organization's overall success in achieving these objectives. How can a sales manager be certain that their efforts are yielding the desired results? They must monitor a collection of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that reflect the overall health of their decisions. But how can you know which KPIs are genuinely important? How do you separate the signal from the noise?

The turn of the millennium has brought about rapid advances in technology and an increased evolution of the needs of governments and people all over the world. As these needs shift, and populations grow, innovation is now more important than ever. Government agencies — often under pressure from shrinking budgets, tighter deadlines and changes in policy with new governing bodies and administrations — are being forced to diversify their innovation strategies in order to accelerate the solving of issues important
to the populations they serve. The Stage-Gate model of innovation has become antiquated, and open innovation through crowdsourced solutions is now the most cost-effective, fast-moving and reliable way to innovate.

These days, sales managers in the worldwide market must overcome a wide range of obstacles. Even though the sales cycle for products and services has lengthened because to technological advancements, their actual lifespans have shrunk. Both consumers and rivals have raised their expectations and become more forceful. Thanks to the Internet, both buyers and sellers now have equal access to global markets. The quality of a sales team is only as good as its leadership. This might be tough news to take for the many sales managers who are always complaining about their sales staff. The role of a sales manager is to delegate tasks in order to accomplish goals. The sales team's performance directly affects your own. The role of a manager is to create heroes, not to find or create one. Not just the sales department, but all departments should follow this rule.

The model as it stands at present consists of five FLIRT elements that need to be considered and established as well as a view to the different levels of participation and how these different levels need to be taken into account in a crowdsourcing project. The FLIRT elements are: • Focus • Language • Incentives • Rules • Tools Although the model stresses continuous and open development through constant conversation and adjusting, the elements of the model connect to different levels of decision making, and can thus be, at least initially, thought of as sequential. The first task is to set up strategic Focus and goals for the project, after which tactical considerations, Language, Incentives and Rules can be considered. The most technical level is the Tools, and should be discussed only after the previous elements have been established to a sufficient extent. The following figure clarifies the division between the elements: The levels of participation, on a rough level, are • Creators, • Critics & Connectors, • Crowds, and • Non-participating consumers I decided to set out to depict a little more descriptive model of the various levels of participation than the common 1-9-90 model (1% generate content, 9% interact with the content, 90% simply consume the content) not least because, as it seems at present, the participation rate on the low-activity level can be anything from some percents to 80%, depending on the community in question. While it was not possible within the scope of this study to engage in a research studying all the various roles a person can have in crowdsourcing, I nevertheless felt it important to identify the most obvious ones in order to reflect on these the different FLIRT elements, most notably Incentives and Tools. Origins, aim and methodology The model has been the result of more than half a year of intensively studying the subject of crowdsourcing and related fields. The model is constructed and the problems viewed from the viewpoint of a marketer of goods and/or services wishing to engage its customers, existing or potential, in a collaborative effort, campaign-style or longer term, on a given field of business. Given the nascent and still forming nature of crowdsourcing both as a mode of business and field of study, various related fields needed careful examination in building the model. These other fields included lead user theory and customer participation in innovation, word-of-mouth and
