Pink Slip Billionaires
You gotta love problems for the solutions they inspire. Here are some names you might recognize who were canned, laid off, or otherwise given the boot. They have joined the Pink-Slip Billionaires because instead of finding a new job, they launched their own careers.

Become an SEO Bartender
It's Friday before Labor Day weekend and I'm thinking about preparing mixed drinks and SEO at the same time.

Sorry About the Understatement!
In a recent Post, I recalled a story from Maryann Keller's Rude Awakening: The Rise, Fall, and Struggle for Recovery of General Motors about the extreme deference paid to GM middle managers. I did it from memory, but ordered the book anyway. I got the stocked refrigerator and the torn-out hotel room wall part right (mostly—it was soft drinks, not beer), but had forgotten the story that preceded it—which made my little vignette small change by comparison. An exec reported this to Ms Keller about a not-atypical incident that marked his more junior days as a GM staffer:
Workplace Ladder Fuel
Maybe you received the email offering cash in exchange for testing the Microsoft/AOL email tracking system. Or you heard that theaters were using subliminal advertising to increase sales of popcorn and soft drinks. Maybe it was the "buy one, get one free" Porsche promotion that caught your attention, or the warning that reusing plastic water bottles is unhealthy since components breakdown and are ingested.

Struggle If You Must During Career Transition, But Why Should You?
To advance forward is to advance to new perspectives by developing new competencies in both soft and hard skills. What is meant by soft and hard skills? I see the hard skills as those that are produced. They are measurable, quantifiable and can be observed outside of self. They have empirical evidence. For example, when a client of mine has a goal to make a career transition into another field of interest and she/he has succeeded, it is obvious to everyone who is familiar with him/her. It is measurable in that the client did break away from one profession and moved into another, which could be seen by others.

Soft Skills, Hard Numbers
Leaders know they need the "soft" skills but the book-keepers require "justification" for the results. However, in this "soft" economy with reduced staff, every conversation contributes to the "bottom line".
Soft Skills Training
It is often argued that the education of hard skills is becoming more prevalent in schools and, as such, graduates are coming out more skilled than ever. Hard skills relate to abilities that are testable, such as typing or mathematical skills. Unfortunately, soft skills are often neglected and today’s grads find themselves incredibly skilled but unable to practically implement what they’ve learned. Soft skills relate to teamwork and interpersonal skills.
The Australian Trucking Magnate: The Early Years of Lindsay Fox
As of 2009, Lindsay Edward Fox was the 10th richest person in Australia, with a net worth of almost AU$1.5 billion. What started as a one-man operation driving a truck to deliver soft drinks slowly ballooned into the largest private supply chain solution company in Asia-Pacific. But it was not an easy road for Fox, who had to overcome an abusive father, high school expulsion, and more on his rise to the top.

What Happened To Your Energy?
An entire market has sprung up around that "two-thirty tired" feeling you have when your personal energy is low. Some of the all-natural supplement drinks, particularly liquid nutraceuticals that include real-food extracts (and not much caffeine), are helpful. But the high-sugar, high-caffeine "buzz" drinks can hurt you. You'd be better off with an overall healthy lifestyle....
A 'SOFT YET FIRM' Message to Forcefully Impact a 'BAD ATTITUDE'
So Many Times we believe in applying Brute Force (in physical or verbal terms) to correct someone's bad manners, or worse, invasive or intrusive behavior. 'BAD ATTITUDE' is one such verbal weapon - a brutal shattering of the offender. Especially when it is the Young who are the 'culprits. But what if the real powerful 'change agent' in such cases is neither the Hard Line nor the overly 'Soft' line? I mean, a careful balancing of both the soft and the firm in a nuanced message? Try it! Miracles may occur....
