The domain of business is governed by cut throat competition and one cannot afford to lag behind. A wrong decision taken on the part of the management tends to cost more, than say a couple of years ago. The role of intuition and guts along with experience has a leeway, but when decisions go wrong all these factors tend to [...]
This is a guest post by Will Roberts. Follow him on Twitter @WillRobertsUSA I am getting more emails and folks I know are stopping me in stores to declare what they think about the way the country is being run more than ever before this election season. It`s almost like candidates came up with this new idea to hire their [...]
When I was a young boy I spent my days in school rather than doing the things I really wanted to do (riding my bike, playing football).

I know this is somewhat anecdotal, but of the twenty or so friends that I know that graduated college [...]
When I began my first internship, it was daunting. No matter how much education I had, on the job I soon discovered that I knew nothing. I was more of a hindrance to my mentor than a help. I was a bumbling mess. I had all the abstract, formal knowledge I could possibly want, but none of it prepared me [...]
Whenever I go into the stacks at my school’s library, it is desolate. Complete silence. Empty desks everywhere.

Students only go to the library anymore to use computers or to print something out. [...]
