When A Career Veers Off Track
By Craig Chappelow And Jean Brittain Leslie
Mid-career derailment can happen any time, but in today's economy there is
no room for complacency. With job opportunities harder than ever to find,
it's a particularly rough time to be fired or demoted or to hit a career
plateau. You can reduce your risk for derailment by paying attention to your
value and effectiveness and by focusing on interpersonal skills,
adaptability, team leadership and bottom-line results.
Based on the Center for Creative Leadership's ongoing study of executive
derailment with clients around the world, here are 10 ways to avoid these
pitfalls:

5 Tips for Presenting Boring Technical Information - so It Isn't Boring
By Nick Morgan
Jun. 8 2011 - 10:34 am
People often ask me some variant of the following question: OK, so I get
the idea that presentations should be interesting, and speakers should be
passionate. But I'm an accountant (or engineer, scientist, nuclear
physicist, doctor, etc) and what I have to present is highly technical and
data-heavy. How can I possibly make that interesting?
My answer always begins with one of the best college lecturers I ever heard.
Yes, he was a professor of accounting. He made profit and loss fascinating
by talking about the early days of the Wells Fargo company, complete with
cowboys, Indians, gunfights, and desperate men riding their horses past
human and equine endurance to get to safety.
Nick's tips for presentations and public speaking are here:
