Thank God It's Monday?
70% of Americans state they do not like their jobs. Entrepreneur magazine recently reported there is a 33% increase in the number of heart attacks on Monday mornings and a 25% increase in work related injuries on Mondays. The Center for Disease Prevention in Atlanta says there are more deaths at 9:00 Monday morning than any other time of the day, or any other day of the week.

Business Working with Paranoid People by Valerie Orsoni
If I say: * Work place paranoia * Control freakiness * Aggressiveness * Lack of trust * Refusal to change * Distorted perspective * Intellectual rigidity ...does it ring a bell? These are but a few symptoms of what I call “workplace paranoia”. As we grow in our working environment we are “doomed” to one day be confronted by such paranoid people. Whether it is your boss, your partner, your employee or your assistant, their problematic behavior will inevitably impact yours.

Using Borrowed Spectacles
You are your own expert. No one knows you like you do.To truly see your problems or concerns and to examine your life you must look through your own eyes, your own spectacles, using your own experiences, your honesty and your values. Not someone else’s. In other words do not use borrowed spectacles. If you have ever tried this you will be aware of the distortion, almost a pain, that is experienced when looking through the lenses. Your vision is distorted and does not allow you to see the true picture or vision of what life has presented to you.

The Characteristics Of High Performing Teams
I’d like to share my views on how teams succeed…

Rethinking Cognitive Skills Testing for New Hires and Promotions
Hiring managers need to make accurate assessments about the cognitive capabilities of potential new hires and those up for promotion (e.g. handling complex information, identifying priorities, and making effective decisions). A hundred years of IQ testing has, however, distorted the image of cognitive assessment to the point where it has largely gone out of favor. No single score can reflect the complex interaction of cognitive, motivational, psychological and contextual factors that impact on thinking.

Distorted IEA Oil Reserve Figures Create Biofuel Opportunities In Central Asia
Did the EIA deliberately put out distorted key Oil projections under intense pressure from the Bush Administration. What does this mean for the Oil Industry and what opportunities does it create, especially in the Biofuels arena.

Selling is not a dirty word
We are not born with our beliefs or values, they are taught to us. Our thoughts, feelings, views and opinions about the world are shaped by our experiences of many people and many things. They are coloured, rightly or wrongly, by our perceptual filters which we learn from others. ‘Watch who you let near your mind’ is a statement that is often quoted in my articles and for good reason. It takes between 6-8 weeks to unwittingly pick up and adopt another’s views, beliefs and perceptions and own them as your own if we do not question and thoroughly examine the consequences and impact of these beliefs and perceptions on our own thoughts, feelings, behaviours and actions.

Going Green = saving money
More and more we get mail with this statement: "I Want to Be Seen in Green" Nowadays “Going Green” improves public perception, many companies think: “It is just good business…” Many of the big companies understand this metric - green is "in" and it is not a color that is going to go out of style. This change of view comes from new workers, from new entrepreneurs, just having finished schools and universities. US education places are the greenest places in the United States. Green is cool in school today. More and more of former students are becoming new customers, but customers with new-fashioned views, views their fathers would never have thought about. So, what’s all the fuzz about going green? Can GREEN bring in some money?

The world we share
We live in three worlds; the world in here, the world out there, and the world we share. In here our views are just that, out there are other people’s views. In the world we share are the views we agree on. In any successful relationship the world we share is the critical one. I trust that today and every day you will resolve to build more of the world we share and be less precious about the world in here or the world out there.

Getting It Wrong
So often we use familiar quotes that leave out "the next couple of lines." And the meaning is distorted beyond recognition in the process. Consider "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblins of little minds," from Ralph Waldo Emerson. The meaning is obviously that changing your mind is no sin; and that the wise among us change when circumstances change.

Too Big To Fail: Part Of The Story
I didn't know what to expect from a network whose producers happily broadcast leftist Bill Maher's periodic rants... but I should have expected exactly what "Too Big To Fail" delivered: part of the story, with some very key ingredients left out (or distorted). That's just what you get when the progressives have overrun (and merged) the information and entertainment industries....
