Put Away the BlackBerry, Stash the iPod: Our Brains Aren't Built to Multitask Whether it's driving while talking on your cell phone, sending e-mails during a business meeting or listening to music while you're working, it seems multitasking has become a way of life. Employers, parents, even kids are trying to get more done in less time. But, does multitasking really make you more efficient? And what happens to your brain when you're trying to complete two important tasks at once? 'Doing just one thing at a time seems like it's out of style,' says Edward Hallowell, who wrote the book 'Crazybusy: Overstretched, Overbooked and About to Snap!' 'Technology may not be helping you as much as you t...

Earth Hour 2009: Vote Earth! Your light switch is your vote [25 Mar 2009] The Concept: Earth Hour began in Sydney in 2007, when 2.2 million homes and businesses switched off their lights for one hour. In 2008, the message had grown into a global sustainability movement, with 50 million people switching off their lights. Global landmarks such as the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, Rome’s Colosseum, the Sydney Opera House and the Coca Cola billboard in Times Square, all stood in darkness. In 2009, Earth Hour is being taken to the next level, with the goal of 1 billion people switching off their lights as part of a global vote. Unlike any election in history, it is not about what country ...

Without planning execution is not possible and not viz-a-viz. if planning is done correctly/minutely its executive definately brings result.

I agree that planning is important, however if one does not execute then planning goes in vain, hence it is important to execute according to your plan.

HR Heads are worried about employees leaving their organizations. Not only is it costly to lose trained employees, but their replacements are not easy to come by.

(Source: Article on www.zdnet.com.au) Cite HR Poll : I came across a public poll that was conducted at Cite HR (a popular meeting point for HR professionals) to find the opinion of the HR community on the reasons for attrition. The poll was titled 'Who will be held responsib...
