How to Prevent Your Employees from Becoming Collateral Damage in the Labor-Management Battle
| |
| While members of Congress talk about improving the workplace for employees, the actions of many indicate that they are far more interested in serving the interests of either management or unions than they are in securing better conditions for workers.

Organizations that make their workers a high priority and treat them well on a daily basis won’t have to worry about what legislation is passed. It’s management’s choice – for a limited time only. |

The Coach as Personal Trainer: Re-Grooving Critical Behavior in Real Time
| |
| Knowing what to do and doing it as automatic behavior are two very different things. We can watch a video, read

required of the new leadership style, however, is not about what we know, but about how we personally operate
when the heat’s on. And we often need professional help in real time to install new behaviors, and to get and

Group Buying Sites- A Delight for Bargain-Hunters and Savvy Advertisers Alike
| |
| Getting a bargain and the sense of urgency that limited inventory and short-lived sales create is fundamental to consumerism. So, it’s easy to see why group buying sites that create a sense of urgency- by offering limited-time offers, like daily deals and flash sales, to a limited number of individuals- and deliver deep discounts for consumers, as well as a measurable, effective marketing strategy for advertisers, are wildly popular among bargain-hunters and enterprising business owners alike. In fact, according to Experian Hitwise, a global information services company, visits to a sample of group buying websites and aggregators increased 610% between August 2009 and August 2010. And a recent study by daily deal aggregator, Local Offer Network, projects that the U.S. group buying industry will expand by 138% in 2011 to $2.66 billion. |
