Some Great Ways of Raising Funds for Your High School
Very often you will find that the students from different organizations in High School such as the football team or the chess club will initiate their own High School fundraising event. This is because often such organizations do not have the financial support of the school itself or because the school is unaware of their situation with regard to the lack of funds. Or it may be that the school budget has already been allocated to other school activities or developments for that year.Many of the High School fundraising events which take are usually there in order to help enhance a particular school activity such as the Junior or Senior Prom dance, some annual out of town tra

Job Search Secrets: Living Outside Your Comfort Zone
Even if you don't love your job, there is something very comfortable about going to work each day. After a few months or a few years with a company, you know what's going on. You're aware of all the players, understand where the real power is concentrated, and know how to approach your coworkers and supervisors to keep everything running smoothly.When you lose your job, you are faced with the great unknown. While there is the potential for all kinds of positive developments, there is also a lost and alien landscape around you. The comfort zone that allowed you to move calmly through the day, without constantly checking your radar to try to figure out what's happening, has eva

You’ve hung out your shingle and are ready for business. But what if something unforeseen were to occur? Is your business truly ready for all that being in business entails? It only takes one catastrophic event to adversely impact a once thriving business. Recent world events: 9/11 destruction of the World Trade Centers and the Pentagon, the tsunami in Asia, along with other natural disasters act as a constant reminder that being well-prepared is often our best line of defense.

What’s that, you say? Your business isn’t located in a city likely to be a target of either natural or manmade disasters. This may well be the case, but this doesn’t take in account that inexplicable chemical spill or train derailment that can happen on your doorstep or public utility failures, such as electrical power outages, brownouts or surges, which can unduly affect the daily operation of your business. Keep in mind, many nature disasters, such as blizzards, tornadoes and earthquakes, can strike with little or no advance warning.

So what’s a business owner to do? Well first, and foremost, you make sure your business has an up-to-date disaster plan. It’s been reported that as many as forty percent of small businesses fail to open their doors again after a major disaster. Many of these businesses were simply unprepared for a disaster; they hadn’t taken the time to prepare a backup plan to better insure the livelihoods of their employees or the continued satisfaction of their customer base.

The More Connected We Get, The More Disconnected We Become
Although we know technology provides many benefits, we tend to rely on it too much for important interpersonal communication. It's a paradox. Technology helps us get in touch--and it prevents us from being in touch. It helps us save time--and makes us waste time. It helps us correspond--and it can prevent us from being understood. As a consultant, I regularly see people struggling to be understood. Interpersonal conflicts are rampant, and listening seems to be a lost art. As people over-depend on technology, these communication challenges become more difficult. It's one thing to rely on email to keep in contact with people in another country, but it's quite a different

When you begin to develop your company’s disaster preparedness plan, three areas should be given special consideration: human resources, physical resources, and business continuity. In devising a plan, as a business owner, you must carefully consider how a disaster might impact your employees, customers, the physical workplace itself, along with what procedures and policies would need to be in place to continue to conduct business if that disaster forces you to temporarily relocate to another site.

All Disaster Plans Should Consider the Following:

Human Resources

• Identify staff essential to your business keeping its doors open. Keep an updated list of their contact information: phone numbers (home, work, pager, cell) and e-mail addresses that can be made available from several locations (home, Internet, etc.). This information should be readily available to key staff members.

• If your business has voice mail, select one remote number on which you can record messages to be accessed by employees in case of emergencies. Make sure that your phones can be programmed to forward calls from the main business line(s). This allows to you program the phones to ring at another site if you cannot access your business. Make this number available to all employees.

• Keep copies of personnel, payroll, payables and receivables, and other essential records at an off-site location.

• Leave copies of keys and alarm code(s) with a trusted employee or friend encase you cannot get to your office quickly after an emerge
