Rickard Hansson, Incentive Corp. suggests that, rather than holding their wisdom inside, that if key employees shared their ides and methodologies it could spark creative collaboration that could create new and improved ideas for company growth. Our Exit Coach Network features several other Shows on a variety of topics. Go to www.ExitCoachRadio.com and click on "Exit Coach Network" under the "LISTEN" section.
Transcript:
Rickard: I want to drain the brain of the co-workers and get no so dependent on key-persons, because you are, and they know that they are the key things, so that's where we want to attack, in some sense. When you implement this, you have to make sure everyone is on board. Typically in the beginning, you have to get the ambassadors, people who want it, early adopters, as soon as possible, because the key persons, the key employees, are usually the last ones because they want to keep their knowledge because it's a part of their power. Of course, you're part of the company because you know something, and you're obviously a key player, but holding that information isn't a part of that, because if you hold that information, I think you stop evolving, as well. But if you bring the things you have to the table, and put it into our system, you will, as a key person probably progress, educate yourself, and bring more to the table, and the company will also be up to speed in terms with the knowledge and discuss new ideas, and move even faster than their competitors.

Transcript:
Rickard: Everything a country has invested until today, in terms of IT systems, is something to support the formal knowledge and the business process and stuff like that. And what we are trying to do is connect the formal knowledge and the informal knowledge within a company. The informal knowledge is in our heads, you know, the water cooler effect: when I’m standing by the water and I ask a random question to a random person and I find then answer. That’s what we’re trying to transfer in the company, so you can talk to the community, so to speak, but in this case, the community is your co-workers.

In this 1 minute interview highlight, Marc Hankin of Hankin Patent Law clearly explains the difference between Patents and Trademarks.
Transcript:
Marc: A patent protects an invention, it could be an article of manufacture or a process, it could be a method. And, patents protect something that does something or that is made in a certain way. There's also something called a design patent which does protect the aesthetic of an otherwise utilitarian product, so the way something looks. Trademarks protect the source of origin of a brand. So, that could be a slogan, a logo, a brand name, it could actually be a color or a smell, but it's something that tells you the source of the goods or services. So, a trademark and a patent protect different aspects of a product, and it's possible to get patent and trademark and even copyright protection on the same product, but you're protecting different aspects of that same product.

Mobile App and Online Privacy laws are constantly evolving to keep up with the rapid development of technology. Here are some tips from Adam Grant of Alpert, Barr and Grant, APLC to help you grow and protect yourself and your business:
- Optimize your company’s mobile capability. – Approximately 75% of all internet searches today are done from a mobile device, make sure your company’s information is “mobile-ready”.
- Maximize the value of your website. – Imparting information is great, but receiving information back is helpful in growing your business. Do it legally by having the proper disclosures in place.
- Consult with professionals. – Make sure you stay in compliance and are covered for every eventuality, be it with the proper legal privacy notices or the appropriate insurance coverage for you and your company.
