Gout: The Missing Chapter from Good Calories, Bad Calories
Last week, I had a wonderful conversation with Gary Taubes, my favorite science journalist and author of the incredible (and I consider definitive), Good Calories, Bad Calories. His ability to synthesize and recall research, both in writing and in speaking, is one of the most amazing feats I’ve ever witnessed.

The Importance of Soft Skills in Business
What are soft skills? Why do they matter? How can you develop yours and improve your work?
Vending Machine Franchise Tips and Benefits
Vending machines have become a familiar part of our daily lives, from snack and drink machines in the workplace to ones that dispense tissues and other small personal goods in bathrooms. There are even book vending machines available at locations like airports and universities. With a growing demand for convenience, consumers are attracted to vending machines and the goods they offer.

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".
Leading Up by Example
In my work with leaders across the country, I frequently run into a perplexing question. When working with management layers in the middle, I will frequently hear, “Bob this is great stuff on building trust. I am anxious to build the kind of environment you describe. I have only one problem, my ogre boss does not go for the soft stuff, so I am stuck.” My advice is twofold. First, there is nothing soft about building trust. It is a hard-edged measure that has more power than any other business variable to impact performance. The skills needed to build trust are not “touchy feely,” they are pragmatic, concrete behavioral actions that can be taught and learned. Second, you are not “stuck” even if your boss is a dyed-in-the-wool curmudgeon with negative Emotional Intelligence; it does not prevent you from leading by example.
Be a Change Management Rocket Scientist
When you get down to it, change management is a pretty “soft science” – a combination of ideas from organizational psychology, sociology, cultural anthropology (and some other things ending in “ology” that I can’t remember). This, however, does not impress our friends in the “hard sciences” (engineers, chemists, physicists and other things not ending in “ology”). These guys become suspicious if you talk to them about things you can’t put in a test tube. “Show me the empirical evidence” they say when you talk to them about the soft-side of organizational change. “I want to see the data” or “give me the formula”. This is when a change manager turns into a rocket scientist and pulls out their secret scientific weapon the CHANGE EQUATION!

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.
