The past week was one of the most memorable and hectic of my entire life, it tested all of my skills as both a warrior and a leader, here’s the rundown; some parts are a blur so bear with me, around 45 - 60 days ago I was chosen by my boss and his boss to assume a new leadership position, when my boss told me it blew my mind.

For the past year, just under 12 months I have been the Commander of an Initial Entry and Advanced Individual Training / One Station Unit Training Company most folks know it as “Boot Camp”.  At around the 8 month mark of this assignment my boss informed me that I was the best Commander out of the 7 Commanders that worked for him, while this was good news the news I recieved from my boss’s boss later that week really humbled me; my boss’s boss told me that he considered me in the running for number one or at least in the top 2 out of 21 Commanders that were in his organization!

Because of my demonstrated leadership style and future potential they gave me a new assignment, they were moving me out of their organization all together and sending me to a new one that is brand new, in fact it is 1 out of 4 that are in existance today.  I take leadership very seriously, I am patriotic and this news gave me an all time “high” and sense of achievement that I have never felt before in my life, all I could do was thank God and the great leaders, coaches and mentors that I have worked with throughout my life.

Now that you have the background let’s just say that every day last week was a major milestone because there was some kind of significant event that had to happen in order for the endstate to be achieved and for all the right outcomes to fall into place.  Being a leader in the U.S. Military has created such a strong foundation that I am considering sharing my success mindset / warrior leader training with other people who are not in the military.

I have applied it to the Home Business and Internet Marketing Industries and proven that the strategies that I have learned and use every day work both in the arena of personnal as well as financial success.

If you are a leader or want to become one let me know your thoughts, I would like to mastermind with you to create a winning team, leave a comment here on my blog or send me an e-mail at Mark at MarkEdwardBrown dot Com

Talk to you soon,

I have been enrolled in the New Order Business School for a couple months
now and I really enjoy it because I can take it at my pace plus it is still
interactive and provides loads of action steps that one can take to improve
or start a successful business founded upon proven and tested principles that work.

Below is one Militant Marketers review of the strategy course. To skip the technical run down, check out how I found this gem of an education CLICK HERE

Review of the “Strategy 101 course” from the New Order Business School:

The theme of this course is “Solid Gold - The Difference Between a 1 Hit Wonder and a Rock Star”

Lesson 1 -

This Lesson was packed with 20 pages of foundational information that is
fundamental to building a solid business.  There was a strategy assesment
which allows you to get a feel for where you stand on how solid your strategy
is and should be.  The core take away from this lesson is how to work “on”
your business instead of “in” it.  The various roles of a business owner were
discussed and strategic goals established interactively right off the bat.

This lesson is crucial to setting the stage for the following lessons so do not
skip it or you will miss out.

Lesson 2 -

Business models and the competitive advantage is covered in this lesson;
key questions are asked and valuable statistics are shared which further
help you to define what type of business model and strategy are best for you. 
Optimizing the client experience is discussed here which I think is a key
component of having a success full business model.  This lesson takes a deep
look into how to use a competitive advantage as well as how to analyze your
competition so that you can gain the advantage in the marketplace.

Lesson 3 -

Dealmaking and negotiation are covered next as well as how to improve
your negotiating skills.  This is a short lesson yet valuable for those who
are not yet comfortable with their negotiating skills.

Lesson 4 -

Funding and getting your business up and running as well as a lesson
summary and recap are discussed in-depth in this lesson.  From the first
step of how to finance your business to all of the options and ways to get
your venture off the ground, it’s in this lesson.  This is an interactive
lesson as well and will help guide you in some key decisions that are vital
to a good start in the business world.  The best ways to take action to get
your business off the gound followed by a summary and re-evaluation of
your plan and strategy round out this course.

There are two audio interviews included in this lesson:

I listened to both of these audios between lessons two and three,
I used the audios as a rest period or a break from the written lessons
which for me was a good move because it allowed me to come back and
use the information in lessons 3 & 4 better than if I would have waited
until after all of the lessons or done them right away.

John Assaraf discusses Building a Business, this is really a must listen to
audio and John is a trendsetter which is all I will say because I dont want
to spoil the value of what you will get out of this audio when you listen to it.

Jim Welch shares how to Use Leadership Strategies for Immediate Growth
so that you can “Grow Now”, Jim is an experience business man and his
experience will help you to forge ahead in your quest for business success.

The end result of this lesson was that many of my ideas of what a successful
business should look like were confirmed. The lessons helped me to solidigy
the right strategy and plan for my business.

The action steps and how-to information that I was able to take away further
added to the solid foundation that had been formed by the “Getting Started 101″
course.

If you have not completed the “Getting Started 101″ course do so before you go
through the “Strategy 101″ course.  If you are an advanced to an accomplished
entreprenuer this course will re-enforce and possibly enhance key knowledge
that will allow you to get ahead of your competition.  Read more about it here
