Hi! It's me. Back from the brink. I'm sure you're wondering what happened -- Where have I been? Why I haven't written? Truth be told I'm always trying to do too much with too little time. I read a study recently that said all of this multi-tasking and BlackBerry addiction is shaving points off the IQ. I have no doubt! :) I'm making a promise to you and myself to make this conversation a ... read more

Great day. Interviewed two really compelling CEO's. Spoke at a conference at Citi Field on the economy, jobs and the credit markets to some of the largest security guard companies in the country, some of which are publicly traded. Just arrived at my son's final day of ice hockey. About to receive his hockey trophy. Pictures to come. Spent last night with Sean Hannity talking about everything from ... read more

Hi guys, Long but exciting day! Spent most of the day in the office. Watched the Ken Lewis testimony on Capitol Hill. Remember, he's the CEO of Bank of America who lost his position as chairman at the annual shareholder meeting a month or so ago. He testified today in front of the House Oversight Committee. They took him to task on so many issues concerning the deal with Merrill Lynch last ... read more

On this morning's show, we talked a lot about the health of the consumer. Consumer confidence is improving,  but have consumers' spending habits changed? If so, where are they spending? Don Knauss, the CEO of Clorox, joined me for a one-on-one discussion about Clorox and then participated in our 8 a.m. ET morning roundtable discussion. Every morning on Money for Breakfast at 8 a.m. ET, we take ... read more

Hi guys, I've received tons of feedback on my suggestion to go see Up. So glad everyone is excited about the movie. Wish I could see Pelham 123 this weekend. No babysitter! There are so many good movies to see right now. In fact I was just listing my favorite movies on my newly-created Facebook page. Yes, shocker! I'm finally on Facebook. I have no idea what I am doing, but I've now made the ... read more

Hi Guys, It's Sunday night just past 8pm. I just arrived in Detroit for the National Summit hosted by the Detroit Economic Club. It's a "Gathering to Define America's Future." The idea is to create a check list of issues to address on everything from energy, manufacturing, health care, education and the environment. In addition to interviewing some of the most well-known executives in their ... read more

Just moments ago I wrapped up a fantastic roundtable discussion about the future of Detroit with Bob Paul Compuware's president & COO, Robert Ficano the Wayne County executive and George Jackson the president & CEO of the Detroit Economic Growth Corporation. Here’s my take--called "Glick's Take," before the roundtable discussion. 1. Resolution to the economic crisis in Detroit does not ... read more

Today I sat down with Bill Ford,  Ford Motor  executive chairman and  great-grandson of the company’s founder as part of our Land of Opportunity American Dreams coverage. We talked about the future of Ford, which is the only big U.S. automaker not in bankruptcy, government intervention and about staying competitive against GM and Chrysler. “Never not in my wildest dreams, I never ... read more

My last interview of the day was with Ron Williams, chairman & CEO of Aetna. Not only is he a class act, he's considered a visionary in the industry. He supported IT & transparency on health care issues well before many of his competitors. He noted there is no ATM equivalent for health care. You can't just plug your card in anywhere and get it to work. Consumers need to get involved in their own ... read more

Without the eight people in these images who stand behind the camera, none of what we do on-air is possible. Today, the power went down twice. We lost all communication, lighting and connection. You never would have known it! Thanks to them, we look seamless when we're really not. :) ... read more
