We should be aware of our culture and other cultures, our history and their history, and not live in what has been termed "a cultural vacuum." Someone once said that not knowing history was like being a leaf that didn't know it was part of a tree. That's an interesting visual and it applies to many people.

Why Can't a Woman be More Like a Man?
Professor Henry Higgins in the musical, My Fair Lady, laments, “Why can’t a woman be more like a man?” We all know women who have had some degree of success only to make the mistake of taking on male attributes.

How leadership repeatedly under-mines their most valuable procurement asset

Relying on My “Inner Debbie”
In tax season, stress comes with the territory. From working long hours in a compacted time period to balancing 200 clients at once, it is easy to have a stressful day.
