"Creativity-by definition-comes from mixing things up." Tom Peters
Overview
about this site
The blog on this home page and other editorial content throughout the site is written by Tom and the Tom Peters Company. Read about us. The red exclamation point you see is more than just a logo—it's a philosophy. To view the new world of work as anything less than a matchless opportunity would be, as Tom writes, "criminal and tragic."
We care about passion, leadership, communication, branding, creative destruction, re-imagining, off-shoring, women, boomers, design, education, technology, cool projects, cooler people, and work that makes a difference.

Selling to Men, Selling to Women
A New Sales Philosophy for the Twenty-First Century By Jeffery Tobias Halter with Gillian Royes, Ph.D.
The most significant variable in every sales situation is the gender of the buyer, more importantly, how the sales person communicates to the buyer’s gender. It is now a validated and documented fact that men and women communicate differently, very differently. Everything from eye contact, to body language, to the usage of language and the processing of information is different in men and women.
What does this have to do with the selling process? Well, just about everything!
