Getting Ahead
Company changes don't always come from the top
To stimulate change without the benefit of being the boss, pursue small steps toward a larger goal and help co-workers adjust to the incremental changes, Jen Overbeck writes. "An effective strategy for creating change requires several elements, but one of the most important is to convince people to alter their attitudes," she writes. Harvard Business Review (tiered subscription model) (3/2015)

7 ways to cope with a hands-off boss
Everyone hates being micromanaged, but working for a hands-off "macromanager" isn't perfect, writes Dan McCarthy. If your boss isn't paying attention, try scheduling regular meetings, sending e-mail updates and be realistic about what you can expect in return. "Learn to look for and appreciate the strengths that your manager does bring to the table, and don't expect pigs to fly," McCarthy writes. SmartBrief/SmartBlog on Leadership (2/26)

Do you exhibit these signs of confidence?
Confident people share common habits such as a willingness to leave their comfort zones and a tendency to view failure as a positive learning experience, Stephanie Vozza writes. They take responsibility for their actions, seek advice from others and exhibit strong body language and posture. Fast Company online (2/23)

Interaction Associates' 6th annual research study tracking trust on the job, Building Workplace Trust, is out, and more than half of employees surveyed give their organizations low marks for trust and leadership. Yet this year's findings again point to how high trust leads to better outcomes and financial results — and even boosts innovation.

The Water Cooler
Imagine a contract where you picked stocks and never lost
In 1997, Max-Herve George's father invested into an account with a poorly written contract that let the holder switch funds every Friday, using the previous week's prices. That effectively allowed George, now an adult, to play the market with little risk, allowing him to grow his account exponentially -- potentially into the billions of dollars. The contract has been challenged, but similar deals have been won by the contract-holders. Quartz (2/28), Financial Times (tiered subscription model)/Alphaville blog (2/27)
