Effective employee-directed communications must be led from the top Effective communications require the active commitment and approvals of senior managers. It is not enough simply to develop a "vision statement" or formulate in general terms the values ​​by which the company lives. Behavior is what counts. Managers must be seen to be in a manner that is consistent with the ethos they are promoting. 2. The essence of good communications is consistency At all costs, avoid following fashion and tinkering. If you try to improve communications and then fail - because your messages are inconsistent or are "good news only" - things will not quietly set back into the way they used to be. You will inevitably have created expectations, and may have to live with the consequences of having deserved those expectations. 3. Successful employee communications owe as much to consiste...

Police Seized Vehicles - Buy Cars At Discount Price Through Auctions

[ad_1] Police seized vehicles offer some of the best deals for automobiles on the market. Often, when criminals are brought to justice their assets are seized by the city or the state. This means that their homes, boats, cars, trucks, and other valuable belongings are made available to the public. In the majority of cases, these police seized vehicles and other items will be put on the auction block where they will be sold to the highest bidder. Before you take part in a police seized vehicle auction it is important to understand exactly what you are getting into. It is very possible that you will take home police seized vehicles for a mere fraction their value.

The Perfect Smartphone for You

[ad_1] With the OnePlus 3, the Chinese start-up made a phone that was nearly perfect. Just when we couldn"t expect anything better, OnePlus 5 took things up another level with a seriously packed spec sheet and of course a higher price. The headline feature is an amazing dual-camera setup on the back, but in OnePlus fashion we have an option of a serious amount of power and RAM. For its price, the OnePlus 5 is a fantastic deal but the higher price necessitates a more critical look at some of its shortcomings. There are a few missing features and some odd omissions, but this is still one of the best tech bargains. The OnePlus 5 can be counted amongst the best looking phones even though it may not be so original. The brand has managed to make the phone so comfortable to hold and a pleasure to use.

Tree Structure - The Basic Makeup of Trees

[ad_1] Trees are made up of three main components: the roots, the leaves and the woody structure that connects them. The function of the roots is to bring the water and minerals to the rest of the tree. The leaves also serve to feed the tree. They absorb carbon dioxide from the air and use sunlight to combine this gas with the moisture brought up from the roots, making the simple sugars which feed the tree giving off oxygen as a byproduct. That is the true magic of trees; they feed off of a toxic gas and provide clean oxygen in return. They are truly the earths air filter. According to David Nowak of the USDA Forest Service a persons oxygen needs could be supplied by two trees. To make up for the carbon dioxide created by the average household with a single car would take about 1/6th of an acre of trees (so start planting). The woody structure, including the trunk, branches and twigs hold the trees leaves in position to receive the life-giving sunlight and carbon dioxide; they also act...

The Sweet Sound Of Vinyl Records

[ad_1] When I was a kid growing up, vinyl records were the primary source used by music lovers to listen to their favorite songs. Eight tracks had been going out of style fairly quickly and the latest trend was the cassette tape. Even with the passing of the eight tracks and the emergence of the cassette tape, many music lovers still kept with traditional vinyl records for their listening pleasure. We have certainly come a long way since those heads days of vinyl records. Compact discs (CDs) are all the rage today, and with good reason. The sound quality is truly pure and clear, and you almost feel as if you are in a sound-proof room when you focus your listening solely on the CD player. The clean, crisp sound that comes out is a huge improvement from the vinyl records that cracked as they played. However, it is that crackling sound that is only offered by the vinyl records that I find so appealing. There is something about that sound that is so neat & even soothing to listen ...

This could have been greatly minimized if not totally eliminated. How could the present economic predicament have been avoided? Answer: if leaders of today, as school children then, were taught the essential principles of wealth creation and sustenance.

Efficient Email

[ad_1] Checking email too often is a significant productivity drain. Email by its very nature isn"t usually urgent unless it"s your entire job, such as answering customer support emails. Here are some tips to prevent email from taking too big a chunk out of your day. 1. Decide in advance exactly when you"ll check email. Don"t check email haphazardly. You can easily waste 30-60 minutes per day checking email too often. In most cases you should be fine checking your email 3x per day maximum. I typically check mine in the morning, at lunch, and at the end of the workday. And that"s only if I"m involved in active open-loop communications. If I don"t have any active open loops, then I"ll usually check email once or twice a day. Handle your email in batches to increase your efficiency. Experiment with how often you really need to check email. Realize that you"re paying a productivity price the more often you check it. Curiosity is not a good enoug...

Media Exposure Is Marketing Gold - If You Know How to Use It

[ad_1] At a glance: Implicit media endorsements make you stand out from the competition. It"s not advertising; it"s building credibility. Maximize your exposure by posting it on your Web site and sharing it via social media. A colleague of mine, who"s a former newspaper reporter, tells a story about a savvy attorney she knew. He"d tip her off whenever he had a particularly juicy case if she promised to include his name alongside that of his client in her story. Whether he won the case or lost it, people remembered his name and associated him with high-profile cases. He"d figured out that having his name in the paper bought him something no amount of advertising could: credibility. For anyone trying to build a business, sell a product or get their book into the hands of more consumers, the implicit endorsement that comes from being interviewed by the media is what I call "marketing gold." Let me explain. Thanks to the Internet, you and every competito...

Movie Review - "The Big Lonely" - Surviving in Isolation

[ad_1] "The Big Lonely" is a captivating film telling the story of Michael Nelms , a persecuted man beaten down by an uncaring bureaucracy and left penniless to live on the streets. Having been a successful car dealer, a real estate broker and the victim of several bad marriages, retreating to a remote forest hideout seems a logical choice. Living under a bridge as a homeless person has no appeal for this man. As he talks into the camera we discover he has built this small cabin on federal land and justifies his right to be there by calling it a mining claim, a bogus one he confesses. One of his daily tasks is to collect water from a nearby stream. The winter has been harsh and he has to chip through a foot of ice. Leading the way is his dog Tic, a mix of wolf and Malamute. Food is a constant need in this wilderness and obtaining fresh meat is a demanding challenge. In the winter, elk and deer go to lower elevations where food is more plentiful and the snow is not so deep. Sn...

Hello! I Can not Sell!

[ad_1] What"s that you say? You can not sell? Oh, you must be right, although you are selling me right now! A good friend of mine once said to me, "Life is sales." What a substantial statement! Think about it! Life IS sales. We sell all day, every day. We just do not realize or acknowledge the fact that we are selling. Why is that? I believe it is because we have adopted some misguided beliefs regarding selling. The interesting thing to keep in mind is that of higher income earners around the world, a large percentage come from the world of sales. Many from direct selling! When you think about sales, what comes to mind? Chances are, it"s the pushy, arrogant, over-zealous, quick-to-the-close type that you"ve done business with in the past. But, is that really what Sales is about? I do not think so. True sales is about sharing information. It"s about finding out what the other person needs and then meeting that need. It"s about creating a w...

Navigating Brexit"s New Strait of Gibraltar

[ad_1] The Rock of Gibraltar, a limestone promontory at the southernmost tip of the Iberian Peninsula, guards the 9-mile strait that separates Europe from Africa. It also symbolizes the first stumbling block in the United Kingdom"s chosen exit from membership in the European Union. Gibraltar, also known as the Rock, is a self-governing British overseas territory bordering on Spain, and it presents unique legal and diplomatic problems. Its history complicates the pending EU-U.K. Brexit negotiation of this unprecedented international political and economic divorce. Long-standing Spanish claims of sovereignty over Gibraltar, opposed by its 33,000 citizens and by the U.K., may alienate Spain as a hoped-for U.K. ally in the two-year Brexit negotiations just now starting. As one who has written about "where to stash your cash" offshore for 20 years, I have emphasized Gibraltar"s important role as one of only two tax havens in the EU. (Luxembourg is the other.) Today, Gibr...

Thanksgiving is a Great Family Holiday

[ad_1] Pre-boomers were taught the first Thanksgivings was a day of gratitude expressed by the early settlers nearly 400 years ago in Plymouth, Massachusetts. The pilgrims thanked God for delivering them to the new world where they could live free of religious persecution, for surviving the first year, and for the harvest to sustain them in the winter months ahead. We also learned that they shared their food with the local Native Americans. This national holiday has become a secular celebration of parades, football games, and overeating with the next day marking the official start of the Christmas shopping season, overshadowing its true roots. However, most pre-boomers have seen and remember Norman Rockwell"s series of Thanksgiving paintings which appeared in "The Saturday Evening Post" during the war years of the 1940s. The warm feelings we get when exposed to those magazine covers remains with us to this day. The Thanksgivings of my childhood remain viable in my min...
