The Secret Behind the Secret - Part Five The law of time says that if you’re having fun, time goes by very fast. If you’re not having fun, time drags like a three year old pulling her dolly behind her on the way upstairs to bed when everyone else gets to stay up. It just isn’t fair. We must be having fun because the last four months have flown by like the blink of an eye and here we are at our last part in this series.
President's Pen - Marketing Opportunities with Dallas ASTD We
value the participation of vendors and consultants in our organization because
they add to the diversity of the membership and provide valuable local
resources to the Dallas ASTD community. Exhibiting and sponsoring at our Dallas ASTD events provide significant accessibility to many of the area’s most dynamic professionals and educators, as well as an opportunity to put your organization in front of highly experienced and knowledgeable development consultants and practitioners. Participation will gain your organization high visibility at the event, in our newsletter and on our Web site.
Give Your Teams the Gift of Productivity Does finding the right gift to say thank you to team members really have to be hard for you? If you are an individual or someone representing an organization that is looking for a unique gift to give employees, vendor teams, or customer groups, don’t overlook the easiest and often best solution. Performance Expectations: You Never Told Me, Part 2 Every
organization has expectations for performance.
Sometimes the employees know what they are and can act to
meet them.
Other times the message never gets through.
Sometimes the message isn’t taken seriously because
there’s no reinforcement. Best Place to Learn: What Does it Take to Win? I have the good fortune of being the Chairperson of the 2007 Best Place to Learn committee. As such, I have the inside scoop on just what it takes to be the Best Place to Learn, at least for this year. Now that the decisions have been made and the winner has been decided, I'm going to slide the curtain back a bit and let you know in general terms some of the things the committee considered.
