Film Production: Copyright
In order to secure meaningful distribution for a film, a producer must be able to prove that he or she owns, or has a license to use, EVERY piece of intellectual property in the film. “Intellectual property” includes many things, such as the right to use the screenplay, the right to use the music in the soundtrack, the right to use the title of the film, the right to use any brand names that appear in the film, ownership of the actors’ performances and many other issues. It is critical that a producer be very conscious and organized with regard to intellectual property.

Do you Suffer from Sand Castle Management? Take this Litmus test.
With the intellectual economy well upon us, how many corporations do you think still have their heads buried in the proverbial sand castle? Not mine, you say? Don't forget - - competitive advantages of old are no longer the competitive advantages of today. Technology is more easily and quickly duplicated, and by offshore competitors who do it for less. In days gone by (old industrial economy), a company's greatest assets were their physical and natural resources. Today (new intellectual economy), the biggest competitive advantage is a company's human capital. It's no longer the widget, brand image, or some secret formula. No, what makes one company better than another today is the human capital behind these things. In a recent Harris Study, it was noted that nearly 73% of a company's bottom line is tied to its people asset.
Tips to Improve Team Culture
The culture of a team governs its effectiveness. Most teams have a culture that allows adequate performance despite many unfortunate outbreaks of tension and sometimes childish behavior. It is unfortunate that more teams do not experience the exhilaration of working in a supportive culture that produces excellent results. The methods of building teams into high performing units are well documented, but most teams do not go through the rigor required to get to that level. This paper blends well known processes with horse sense born of experience that will allow any team to perform better.

Our Attitude More Than Our Aptitude Determines Our Altitude
Our society admires strength and power. Since the early games of the ancient Olympics, we've had contests of strength, stamina, speed, and the like. We've approached brainpower or intellectual abilities in the same way. We're in awe of intellectual giants with memory, reasoning, or complex problem solving abilities far beyond our own. IQ tests were developed to measure this intellectual strength and power. We've come to believe that highly intelligent people make the best professors, doctors, managers, scientists, and so on. Many people believe that high IQ and high levels of success and happiness go together.

The importance of Intellectual Property when buying or selling a business
For all buyers and sellers of businesses, it is important to understand what and how intellectual property can affect you.

Can Guardian Angels Teach Us Anything?
Disclaimer: Believing in guardian angels is by no means a prerequisite to learn about what the whole idea or notion of them can teach us. I have often written and referenced what I call the dimensions of self (intellectual, physical, emotional and spiritual). I have stated that we give greater attention to our intellectual and physical self much more than to our emotional and spiritual self. In fact, the world we live in encourages it. Yet, we should know that all four dimensions of self are of equal importance, and they should all receive, as much as possible, the same weight or amount of attention. This month I would like to focus on the emotional and spiritual dimensions, and yes, I will use guardian angels to help make my point. Let me start by telling you a story.
