Leadership Success Skills - Autumn is The New New Year
The other day I heard on the radio that autumn is the new New Year! It makes sense when you think about it. I think fall is a great time to re-evaluate and take an inventory on the successes and challenges of the year to date. Here are some questions and tips to ponder in the remaining months of the year.

What They Now Are Teaching MBAs at BSchools According to Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach
In 1984 Mark McCormack wrote “What They Don’t Teach You at Harvard Business School – Notes From A Street Smart Executive.” In 1989 Mark wrote “What They Still Don’t Teach You at Harvard Business School.” I thought of those 2 books when I was researching some trends in MBA education programs. I discovered that there had been some critical elements missing with the MBA education and that there are troubles with newly graduated MBAs. My research indicated that new MBA graduates have really lacked key interpersonal skills, the ability to write and speak clearly and persuasively, teambuilding skills, and an understanding and commitment to business ethics. So what is being done to address these gaps in the MBA education?

2.1 The cruel dilemma of school or work: Working Out of Poverty
The education and preparation for working life of the current generation of children are of key importance to the drive to reduce and eradicate extreme poverty. Access to basic education has improved in a large number of countries, but the poor have benefited much less than those who are better off. Over 115 million school-age children, mainly in low-income countries, were not in school in 1999; 56 per cent of them were girls. On current trends, a large number of South and West Asian and African countries are unlikely to achieve the Millennium Development Goal of ensuring that all children complete a full course of primary education by 2015.

SELL YOURSELF WELL
The most difficult CV’s to put together are those of people who have just left school, who perhaps didn’t complete school, have no tertiary education and little or no work experience. It might seem that they have very little to work from. But everyone has something about themselves which they can sell.

Teach Your Children About Money
Your children may be out of school for the summer, but that doesn't mean their education should take a vacation too. If you haven't already started teaching your children about money and finances, you are neglecting an important part of their education. Consider these suggestions:
Schools Don't Educate And They Certainly Don't Teach Success
I was a teacher for more than ten years. I loved teaching and learning and for that reason I went back to school way too many time to mention. With all this "education" and teaching, I eventually realized that there was a disconnect between education and future success after graduation. The education establishment is responsible for the fact that schools fail to teach financial education, that schools actually harm students when they reward actions that are detrimental to future success and punish actions and habits that are vital to success.

Saving Money at College
College is an expensive time for any young adult. Here are some tips to save money when getting your education.
How to handle workplace bullying.
Bullying is an activity which most people associate with their schooldays. The playground bully is a well-established stereotype. Sadly, bullying does not disappear when you walk out the school gates for the last time. Work bullies aren’t much different than school yard bullies. They victimise people they perceive to be weaker and smaller. To feel better about themselves, they try to make others feel insignificant. It can be a real shock to people when they find themselves, as an adult, being bullied by another adult. Unfortunately it is an all too common complaint in the workplace.

Busting Teacher Unions for the Wrong Reasons
As education stakeholders continue to sort through the reasons for failing school districts they have shifted the blame to teachers. Teachers are the cornerstone for any productive education but before we rid ourselves of unions we must consider other factors that contribute to failing schools such as dysfunctional organizational behavior.
