| 6 Ways To Conquer Leadership Pressure Posted: 03 Apr 2013 09:02 PM PDT How a leader deals with pressure will tell you much about who they are as a person. Their reaction to pressure will reveal the strength of their character and conviction, what and whom they value, and whether or not they can be trusted. The reality is most people buckle under pressure. Only a few handle pressure well, and even fewer possess the qualities to be able to thrive on pressure. |
| How to Fix the Start Up Hiring Dilemma Posted: 03 Apr 2013 09:00 PM PDT Hiring employees, especially for a startup, is the most difficult task a founder faces. It is filled with risk, reward, and the costs of high turnover that comes with failure. Most founders do not have the capital to make a mistake. This is why they spend countless hours sitting across the table from a candidate to try to figure out if they have the skills to do a great job. They also want to know if the candidate will fit the culture of their company. |

| Why Captain Kirk's Call Sparked A Future Tech Revolution Posted: 03 Apr 2013 08:49 PM PDT Most people whipping out their mobile phone and touching the interface with their fingers won't connect it to science fiction at all. I thought it appropriate today to recall the debt that the technology and mobile phone industries owe to the genius of Gene Roddenberry, Star Trek and science fiction literature. Science fiction has always inspired the creation of great inventions, but we tend not to acknowledge the debt the everyday technology we take for granted has to the creative inventions in far-flung science fiction literature. Fantastic technological notions that had been spawned by visionaries such as Roddenberry and others inspired our modern scientists and inventors, who then saw fit to bring these ideas to reality. Martin Cooper can recall the moment when he was at a break in his lab watching the episode of Star Trek when Kirk used his Communicator to call for help for an injured Spock, which later inspired him to invent the mobile phone. |

| Taxes From A To Z (2013): S Is For Statute Of Limitations Posted: 03 Apr 2013 08:03 PM PDT S is for Statute of Limitations.
