WealthManagement.com (U.S.) (10/22) Share:  How great workers can become great leaders Brilliant employees don't always make brilliant leaders, write John Maxwell and Mary Jo Asmus. Making the transition successfully depends on your ability to learn new people skills, and to shift from a "me" mindset to a "we" mindset. "You know how to cross the finish line individually. Now find ways to rally and guide everyone on your team to cross the finish line together," Maxwell writes. Leadership Wired Blog (10/20), Aspire-CS.com (10/20) Share:  The ABCs of Financial Management Do you know your hypercritical numbers? Do you understand which figures and accounting principles are most important for the stability of your business? While your company may still be too small for you to hire a full-time CFO, knowing your numbers is a necessary evil that comes with owning your own business. Learn to identify the critical three to five numbers that will determine the success or failure of your business. Making the Connection Sociable workers are less prone to layoffs, research suggests Workers who use "social" terms such as "coffee" while interacting with colleagues were less likely to have been laid off during the recession, according to a study by Wharton School professor Lynn Wu. "It actually pays to get to know your co-workers, to understand what's going on," she says. Knowledge@Wharton (10/22) Share:  The Landscape Nonprofit employment grew during recession, data indicate Pay in the nonprofit sector grew by more than 16% between 2007 and 2012, according to Labor Department data. Employment in the nonprofit sector grew by 8.6% during that time, while the private-sector employment rate decreased. The Wall Street Journal (tiered subscription model)/Real Time Economics blog (10/20), The Chronicle of Philanthropy (10/19) Share:  Your Next Challenge Step one of landing your dream job Massachusetts Institute of Technology Career Development Specialist Lily Zhang suggests the first step in landing your dream job is clearly defining what you want. She writes that "knowing what you're after will be your guide to creating a tailored job search plan." TheMuse.com (10/22) Share:  Balancing Yourself Fitness experts say workers can do interval training at their desks Fitness experts say high-intensity interval training can be done in an office cubicle during a short break, using exercises such as air boxing, marching in place, wall push-ups and chair jogging. Exercise physiologist Mark Kelly says people need time to build to the high-intensity level, but to get the biggest benefit they need to "go really hard" if they have only a short time for exercise. Reuters (10/20) Share:  The Water Cooler Meet the tallest bovine around Blossom, a cow from Orangeville, Ill., has been named the world's tallest bovine by inspectors from Guinness World Records. The 6-foot-4-inch, 2,000-pound animal is kept as a pet, says owner Patty Hanson. "Blossom is a bit like an overgrown dog," she says. KABC-TV (Los Angeles)/The Associated Press (10/16) SmartQuote For the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: 'If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?'
