Budget 2014 : le plan d’économies du gouvernement. How to Give a Killer Presentation. A little more than a year ago, on a trip to Nairobi, Kenya, some colleagues and I met a 12-year-old Masai boy named Richard Turere, who told us a fascinating story. His family raises livestock on the edge of a vast national park, and one of the biggest challenges is protecting the animals from lions—especially at night.

Richard had noticed that placing lamps in a field didn’t deter lion attacks, but when he walked the field with a torch, the lions stayed away. From a young age, he’d been interested in electronics, teaching himself by, for example, taking apart his parents’ radio. He used that experience to devise a system of lights that would turn on and off in sequence—using solar panels, a car battery, and a motorcycle indicator box—and thereby create a sense of movement that he hoped would scare off the lions. He installed the lights, and the lions stopped attacking. But Richard’s story was so compelling that we invited him to speak. Frame Your Story. Europe's Best Analysts 2013.

A palliative nurse who has counselled the dying in their last days has revealed the most common regrets we have at the end of our lives. And among the top, from men in particular, is 'I wish I hadn't worked so hard'. Bronnie Ware is an Australian nurse who spent several years working in palliative care, caring for patients in the last 12 weeks of their lives. She recorded their dying epiphanies in a blog called Inspiration and Chai, which gathered so much attention that she put her observations into a book called The Top Five Regrets of the Dying.

Ware writes of the phenomenal clarity of vision that people gain at the end of their lives, and how we might learn from their wisdom. Here are the top five regrets of the dying, as witnessed by Ware: 1. "This was the most common regret of all. 2. "This came from every male patient that I nursed. 3. "Many people suppressed their feelings in order to keep peace with others. 4. 5.

Du DVD au streaming Et en France ? Un tournant ? Netexplo : dix innovations qui vont changer votre vie (de consommateur) LinkedIn: 9 Mistakes You're Making. Lots of articles describe how to create a more marketable LinkedIn profile, how to find the right groups to join, how to choose the best profile photo... I should know, I've written about that. Oh, and that. Yep, and that too. Since most people understand the value of taking those steps, let's go deeper. To really harness the power of LinkedIn, don't make these mistakes: 1. Connect with people on LinkedIn and you can write a recommendation that gets displayed on their profiles.

That's awesome, unless you're only giving recommendations because you want one in return. For example, say you're a plumber. Then I ask you to write a recommendation for me. The problem is, you don't know me professionally. Give sincere recommendations. 2. Great networking is based on giving, not receiving. Endorse another person's skills and you not only give them a virtual pat on the back, you may also help them show up in search results.

Show other people you respect their skills. 3. 4. 5. What's next? 6. 7. 8. Untitled. Paula Davis-Laack: Life Is Too Short: 10 Things to Stop Tolerating.

C'est l'événement mode de la rentrée. Le 1er octobre, le groupe de prêt-à-porter japonais Fast Retailing a ouvert en fanfare un flagship au coeur du quartier de l'Opéra de Paris, juste en face des Galeries Lafayette. Cinq minutes avant l'ouverture des portes, quelque 800 personnes faisaient la queue devant l'entrée de ce repère de 2 150 m2.

Très vite, une foule dense a envahi le magasin. Au point qu'il a fallu jusqu'à 1h30 d'attente pour passer en caisse ! Un succès dû autant aux produits qu'au concept de la boutique. Car ce qui frappe dès le début, c'est la modernité du magasin. L'impact visuel est suffisant pour générer un bouche-à-oreille très efficace.
