July Toast and Jam

June 29, 2016

Next month it may be Bread and Jam . . . can't take the heat.

Continuing our monthly "the single best article I have found" series "Bread and Jam." Now into our second quarter! The idea is to share one influential article that you can read while you make toast . . . and, of course, add a little Jam.

Here's my next installment. Enjoy!!

Please recognize that inclusion in the monthly Toast and Jam does NOT mean I agree with the author's opinions! In fact, sometimes it is quite the opposite! I plan to include cogent articles that challenge the current thinking and that, I hope, will get you asking "better questions" yourself.

May Toast and Jam

April 27, 2016

May's Toast and Jam . . . looking forward to fresh strawberry freezer jam!

In April I started a monthly series to provide "the single best article I have found" in the past month. The idea is to share one influential article that you can read while you make toast . . . and, of course, add a little Jam. It's fun to find and share other's work that is insightful (or challenging) and that, I hope, will help you as well. Please recognize that inclusion in the monthly Toast and Jam does NOT mean I agree with the author's opinions! In fact, sometimes it is quite the opposite! I plan to include cogent articles that challenge the current thinking and that, I hope, will get you asking "better questions" yourself.

So here is MAY's Toast and Jam . . .

Organizations and Business:

An interesting summary on supervising millinneals called "Kids these days" by Sergeant Darren Neal of the Arkansas State Police.

Should companies start offering voluntary benefits? (Entrepreneur)

Consulting:

Personnel Today focuses on the benefits of workplace counseling.

People Analytics? How businesses are starting to try and measure the importance of their human assets.

Churches:

The debate about "seeker-sensitive churches" goes on . . . here is a little different "take."
