Why change...this a common question we all ask ourselves when we get presented with a new idea. We are intrigued by it, but are not unhappy enough with how things are now, so why bother? When it comes to technology, the process to make the change just seems too painful and it is never the right time.
Summer has finally arrived and the temperatures have heated up. The sun is shining and it’s a beautiful time of the year. It’s an opportunity for us to spend more time capitalizing on some of the outdoor activities that we enjoy…like boating, family picnics and reunions, baseball, hiking and many more. My husband and I enjoy getting out on our Harley and venturing all throughout Ohio. It’s a great way to see the countryside and enjoy the beauty of nature.
Time management is all about production and efficiency. We often make decisions on tasks to optimize both while meeting our goals. Our tasks can fall into the categories of important and urgent. Important tasks are ones such as developing a strategy or doing research. These are critical to a company’s success, but have no well-defined deadline. Urgent tasks, however, have a well-defined deadline and are usually used by others to judge production and value for your company. Examples of urgent tasks include reports, meetings, and emergencies.
With summer comes a lot of possibilities for outdoor activities that just weren’t possible in the cold weather. Beach vacations, trips to the pool, and all sorts of outdoor activities are now ready to be enjoyed. One of my favorites is golf, and while weather hasn’t been too cooperative in Ohio lately, I’ve had time to think about the game with respect to REMEDI while I wait for sunshine.
Pendulums make for pretty good employment cycle analogies because they both have a recognizable arc, apex, and return path. Regardless the size, pendulums typically aren’t dangerous unless you turn your back on them. That’s when you don’t see “it” coming until…..Wwhhhaaack!
Getting caught flat-footed because your top candidate accepts a role elsewhere (or worse, a better offer from one of your competitors) can be sobering, leaving you with quite a headache.
