in Five Things to Tell Your 401k Participants in This Down Economy on KnowHR Blog
Well said, except for the uncle part. I have very smart uncles, so maybe mine are the exception rather than the rule.

Frank LOl, yeah, some uncles do know what they're doing. You're right...listen to them, but stay away from knucklehead uncles.

in Would You Hire a CEO With an Unsophisticated Speaking Style? on KnowHR Blog
Well said, Frank! Regardless of a person's accent, a leader has to be able to think clearly and put together cogent sentences. How a person speaks is a telling reflection of how they think.

in Want to Move Up In Social Class? Get Out of HR on KnowHR Blog
If you select Business and then HR (instead of Management and then HR), Human Resources gets a slightly higher score.

Not sure why "HR Managers" are a lower class than "HR Professionals" though.

in Why I’d Want Usain Bolt on My Team on KnowHR Blog
Meh ... no matter what culture you are from, running hard till the race is over, being respectful of your competitors and being gracious in winning are signs of a true champion.

Usain Bolt is a great sprinter, but he is definitely NOT an example of great sportsmanship.

in I’d Like to Thump Chest Thumpers on KnowHR Blog
I ran Cross-Country in High School and during one particularly close event, I turned my head a few hundred yards from the finish line to see how close my competitors were; my coach was furious!

"Why did you turn you head? Want to see if you need to run faster? Well, if you can run faster, then RUN FASTER, you don't need to turn your head to figure that out!"

I never made that mistake again.
