You are under-staffed, over-worked, and behind on your commitments. Your “Go-To” person just quit, leaving an unbelievable loss of knowledge which you cannot even begin to comprehend. Are the old-school ways of attracting talent (advertising on job boards, filtering resumes, interviewing candidates) not working? Then this session is for you. The tables have turned—the balance of power has shifted from the employer doing the hiring to the employee landing the job. Employees are operating as free agents now more than ever before. Business leaders must learn how to build teams that engage employees as sensitive, passionate, creative contributors. There is a visible shift needed—from trying to enact the perfect hiring schema—towards focusing on building an irresistible organization to attract top talent. Join Catherine in this hands-on working session to learn how the traditional HR strategy hiring isn’t going to work anymore. Learn how to hack this traditional hiring system to find the right people for your team, how to interview a potential new team member with empathy, learn what new team members will expecting from their new companies, so that you may attract the top talent you need to deliver and delight your customers.

Futurecasting is a program that provides a systematic framework for adolescents and young adults that will enable them to navigate the environments they encounter, achieve the goals they set, and establish a network of support for both personal and “professional” advancement. The program results in tangible outcomes related personal identity formation, digital footprint awareness, and online presence. Become the hero of your own story with FutureCasting!
If the Design Process were a boy band, Feature Prioritization would never be the fan favorite with a breakout solo career. Prioritization isn’t sexy. It hurts to let go of the beloved features created during brainstorming. The decision-making design phase often involves negotiation and compromise in an uncomfortable social environment. Prioritization can be downright painful!
If only you could recapture the enthusiasm and creative glow of brainstorming. Well, wish no longer! Design fairy godmothers Carolyn Chandler and Anna van Slee are here to transform this pumpkin into a stage coach. Strap in!

MIT Cryptocurrency Bootcamp - Tips and Tools to Build Your Own Career PathMeltem Demirors
This presentation was prepared for the MIT Digital Currency Initiative Cryptocurrency Bootcamp, and delivered to students as the last session of their week-long bootcamp. It focuses on the cumulative, incremental steps students (and any savvy job-seeker) can take to build their skills, and offers practical guidance on how to leverage technology and tools to build and grow a meaningful network, develop a unique brand, and identify key skills you need to get the career you want.
Here is what Valerie shared at the end of our Expert Webinar with Ken Spero on Remote Professional Development through Virtual Learning SImulations - May 7, 2020.
I gave this talk at the Santa Barbara Pecha Kucha night.
The skills that are needed as Cognitive Computing gains momentum are different from what we learn in school. My kids are 10 and 13, and I can't wait for schools to catch up. Here is what I think about the 'problem' as well as some suggested actions for parents to take.
Slide 2:
3 months ago at a work conference, I heard Pavan Arora, Director of Content at IBM WATSON spend an hour describing the cognitive computing era we’re entering, knowledge as a commodity, and the amazing ways technology is going to change the world – helping cancer researchers find DNA markers in days/months, rather than years, for example. As example upon example stacked up, it became clear to me that there’s going to be an even bigger divide between low skilled, high substitute jobs (think retail), and highly paid, high skilled jobs.

Slide 4:
I started doing a lot of research online, in books etc. and found some decent data, forecasting that yes, some high skilled jobs are at risk of computerization, which is rather new – technology has ALWAYS replaced human labor, first manual labor when we all moved off the farm 100 years ago, more recently we’ve seen outsourcing, automation in middle skilled jobs, but high pay, high skilled jobs aren’t a sure bet either now.

Slide 12:
The GOOD NEWS is that this amazing age we’re in that’s generated this skills gap, also has given us pretty much free access to solutions to the problem. As Pavan from IBM Watson described several months ago, knowledge is no longer scarce and difficult to access; in fact, it’s growing at a massive rate –
I’ve gone out and found dozens of amazing people who’ve thought about this very issue way more than me, and can leverage their experience and ideas, and build on them. So here are my ideas for you as to what to do.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
