Memorial Day Office Closure

Memorial Day is, in my opinion, one of the most meaningful holidays observed in the United States.

It’s Only Common Sense: Customers Capabilities—and Confidence

04/20/2026 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common Sense
I’ve been around, man! I’ve been in enough conference rooms, factory floors, and late-night airport lounges to know one thing for certain: Most companies think they lose business because they lack capability. They don’t. They lose business because they fail to inspire confidence.
