Jeff Olson
ENTREPRENEUR LEADERSHIP NETWORK WRITER
Founder & CEO of Neora
Jeff Olson is the founder and CEO of Neora and is a leader in the direct sales industry. He's also the author of The Slight Edge, which shares the philosophy he used to achieve success as an entrepreneur and CEO. He aims to help others reach financial freedom and personal excellence.
The Slight Edge Book is a way of thinking, a way of processing information that enables you to make the daily choices that will lead you to the success and happiness you desire. Learn why some people make dream after dream come true, while others just continue dreaming and spend their lives building dreams for someone else. It's not just another self-help motivation tool of methods you must learn in order to travel the path to success. It shows you how to create powerful results from the simple daily activities of your life, by using tools that are already within you. The Slight Edge is "the key" that will make all the other how-to books and self-help information that you read, watch and hear actually work.
Here is a note I shared with my team last week. This idea came from my reading of Jeff Olson’s The Slight Edge. I highly recommend this book!
You can be successful at your job. It will require daily disciplines that are easy to do. Really, they are easy. But just like trying to lose weight, disciplines are also easy not to do. The choice is yours.
So here are 10 Core Commitments for you. This is my challenge to you. Work on these commitments every day at every opportunity. There may be days when you don’t get to all 10, but if you make it a focus, I bet you’ll do more than you think.
10 Core Commitments
Follow-up (issue resolution, member service one step beyond)
Follow-through (keep your promises)
Ask for the business (connect folks to our experts)
Be pleasant & professional (smile and use the member’s name)
Ask for referrals (members who are “fans” will promote us – ask them!)
Communicate appropriately (in-person, on the phone, email, texts)
Add value (be helpful, collaborate)
Use our resources (and apply what you’ve learned)
Take action now (to delay can mean losing)
Listen more (to get to the core of the issue)
