Do You Have the Skills to Manage?
"Interpersonal skills are extremely important for managers dealing with a wide variety of personalities. All of your employees will be different—each will have his or her own way of thinking and operating. Your challenge is to be able to help them overcome these differences and mesh as a team. "
This is a exert that I found in Businessweek.com. Managers are the ones that lead the many and need to be the ones that show the many how things are done. Leading by example and being interpersonal are two of the main factors of being a "good" manager.
Do you have the right managers in place to make your business run flawlessly?

Who Do You Have Winning It All?
Its coming up on March Madness time. For all you college basketball fans, the most exciting time of the year is right around the corner. To make it even more exciting, what do you do? Start up the company office pool! A little gambling should help spice it up just enough to make it interesting to even the uninterested.
In the article from the Business Journal is a survey relating to productivity and March Madness. An interesting stat that I couldn't believe was, "Very few employers offer guidance in their policies regarding office pools, even though it may mean taking a hit in terms of productivity, Spherion officials said."
Maybe its time to update the employee handbook and put some guidelines or rules in on office pools, or maybe its just time to enjoy March Madness!
