Peter Drucker

Think about these and let me know what it does for you, your organization, maybe even your community.

"The best way to predict the future is to create it."

"Efficiency is doing things right; effectiveness is doing the right things. "

"People in any organization are always attached to the obsolete - the things that should have worked but did not, the things that once were productive and no longer are."

Challenges, Change, and Spicy Tuna Rolls

Chicken with broccoli is always a good choice.

Sushi is even better. Take a spicy tuna roll from me and we’re going to have problems. I’ve never been a fan of sushi, but hey - things change.

Lately, I’ve become a huge fan of Indian food. Peanut chutney is a new favorite.

Check out this video and see how it could change your perceptions especially in these tough times.

NJ Local Services, NJ News and events, Yooyak

A few years ago, I decided to get some house work done. The project was an Add-A-Level. After several bad quotes, it was time to end my search for contractors. How frustrating! Fortunately, word of mouth referrals saved the day. Months later, I walked into a renovated home. Thanks to word of mouth.

In this economic climate, we need to work together. Your local merchants matter. So do your schools, your neighbors. I built Yooyak as a the tool to help find, recommend, and support local services. Yooyak even teamed up with Careerbuilder which helps find local nj jobs.

Read through neighbor reviews. Promote events. Support your local community.

Talk about your favorite mom and pop shops. Tell people about that amazing Italian restaurant right in the middle of town. We're all ears.

It’s your turn to talk - Yooyak.
