Money does grow on trees... You just have to believe is the first book in a series of two so far and it's about believing in yourself and overcoming all obstacles to achieve what you want to achieve. The second book is titled, "What" Makes Money Grow on Trees.
At the AdU: Account Managment class, members of RPA, Common and DirecTV explained what it takes to be a strong account manager. Attendees were shown real-life examples and skills to apply to their own jobs and gained a better understanding of the many opportunities of working in account management.
Bug reports, standups, issue queues, retrospectives, pull requests, code reviews, flame-outs. We're constantly communicating and if we don't take the time to stop and think about what state of mind will be most productive, we can sometimes say things that put us further behind. Nothing disrupts flow like unproductive communication! In this session Emma Jane Hogbin Westby will show you a new way of thinking about how people behave in the workplace. She will walk you through three types of thinking strategies; and show you how to apply these strategies to create more productive interactions with your co-workers.
