| Article Title :: Choosing a Communications Designer: A Practical Guide |
| |
| “I don’t know the first thing about professional design!”You say your MBA program didn’t include training to work
with creative professionals? Perhaps your degree is from
the Seat-of-the-Pants School, and didn’t include experience
in outsourcing creative work. Don’t know what a designer
actually does? Don’t even know where to find one?Relax. You’re not alone. Few executives are trained to make
these kinds of decisions or to work effectively with creative
professionals. This puts them at a distinct disadvantage
when hiring creative consultants.We’ve run into this situation with many of our clients. That’s

| Article Title :: Individuality and Working Together as One |
| |
| In the future the human brain will interface with computer networks and other brains within the whole; the whole being that of the “one” or the whole of humanity. Some might fear this, yet we have two hemispheres of our brain and half could be connected to the whole; the other to self. Think of the Internet and Blogs? On one hand you share information and data to the world, or if password protected to certain groups, yet as soon as you turn off your computer you are once again only connected to self. Even while on the Internet you are air-gapped or not completely connected.If you look at a Bee Hive, those bees are quite content to service to the hive and are willing to sacrifi (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Disarming Defensive Behavior |
| |
|
Some people need to be right whether they are or not.
No matter what you say to them about a problem, they can
explain... Why they couldn't help making a mistake... Why they
are not to blame because they meant well... Why it's your fault
that they made the mistake....
They're so defensive, it's a real challenge to get them
toaddress any problem.
David, an engineer who leads a team of prickly Ph.D.
researchers, sidesteps this defensiveness, and you can too.
He has developed a strategy of asking penetrating questions that
almost force people to think through situations in depth. Then
he listens very carefully to their responses.
David explained: "I ask questions in order to get very clea (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Phone Games of the 21st Century |
| |
|
I recently had reason to call my phone company in order to
inquire about some charges that were showing up on my bill. I
first reached an automated message that told me to press one for
English, which I did, followed by a menu with several options.
Of the available options, none involved speaking to an actual
human being. This was the type of phone system where you could
either press the number of the option you wanted or speak it
into the receiver. After hearing all the available options and
knowing that not a single solitary one of them would address my
issue, I decided to take a gamble. I clearly said "customer
service" into the phone and was then told that what I had said
did not match (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Remote Calling Function is Priceless |
| |
|
As a salesman, I'm out of the office about forty weeks during an
average year. The nature of my business is such that I am not
only unable to be contacted at all times, but really wouldn't
want to be even if I could. Our office utilizes a remote calling
function with our business phone system that allows me to
receive all my messages from my desk phone. More importantly, I
am able to call one toll free number and place calls from my
desk phone as though I were there. Considering I am on the phone
quite a bit throughout the day, this feature saves me time and
money. At my previous job, I was required to use my own personal
cell phone, which I would submit an invoice for and be paid a
month l (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Communication |
| |
|
Regardless of what business you are in - a large corporation, a
small company, or even a home-based business - effective
communication skills are essential for success.
1. Why communications skills are so important:
The purpose of communication is to get your message across to
others. This is a process that involves both the sender of the
message and the receiver. This process leaves room for error,
with messages often misinterpreted by one or more of the parties
involved. This causes unnecessary confusion and counter
productivity.
In fact, a message is successful only when both the sender and
the receiver perceive it in the same way.
By successfully getting your message across, you co (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Satellite radio guide for Novice Users |
| |
|
A satellite radio or subscription radio (SR) is a digital radio
that receives signals broadcast by communications satellite that
covers a much wider geographical range than normal radio signals.
The satellite radios function anywhere there is line of sight
between the antenna and the satellite, given there are no major
obstructions, such as tunnels or buildings. SR audiences can
follow a single channel regardless of location within a given
range.
As the technology requires access to a commercial satellite for
signal propagation, SR services are commercial business entities
(not private parties), which offer a package of channels as part
of their service --requiring a subscription from end (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Help Raise £7 million for Cancer Research |
| |
|
The 25th November 2005 marked the second anniversary of the
death of Joanne Sutherland. The much loved spouse and mum-of-two
young boys, who were just 3 and 5 then, was taken by cancer at
age 36. Her death shocked those closest to her and took just
seven months after the initial diagnosis. This sparked a burning
desire to raise £7 million pounds for Cancer Research in her
memory. £1 million pounds for each year Joanne and I spent
together.
In 2003, the year of Joanne's death, between the UK and the
United States alone, around 600,000 people lost their lives to
this killer disease. Exactly 154,547 people in the UK and over
half a million in the States.
