The MENTOR+ Project10 Things Great Managers Do. Steve Tobak says..."This list is different. It’s different because, to derive it, I went back in time to the best characteristics of the best CEOs (primarily) I’ve worked for and with over the past 30 years. It’s based entirely on my own experience with executives who made a real difference at extraordinary companies.
Some were big, some were small, but all were successful in their respective markets, primarily because of the attributes of these CEOs. Each anecdote taught me a critical lesson that advanced my career and helped me to be a better leader. Hope you get as much out of reading it as I did living it." READ+

Why Did Google Launch A Magazine. Global - Google's head of global ad marketing Lisa Gevelber explains the search company's strategy about the launch of its B2B magazine, Think Quarterly. Think Quarterly really came to be out of the insight that, at Google, we use research and analysis from inside Google and outside to inform our own decision-making and products.

Jon Stewart Brings Hilarious Sanity to Milwaukee Performance. Jon Stewart might be one of our nation's most beloved satirists, but he knows that the business of unpacking the silliness and stupidity of American politics requires the assistance of some very important people. Appearing Saturday night at Milwaukee's Riverside Theater for a rare stand-up performance, Jon Stewart hushed the sold-out house when audience members booed venomously at the mention of Sarah Palin. After all, while the former Alaska governor has had a dubious effect on national discourse, she's been a bottomless well of material for Stewart on The Daily Show. READ+
Eat, Drink, and Be Sleepy! 5 Natural Sleep Aids. Sleep restores us. And not getting enough of it can put us at greater risk of heart disease and cancer. Sleep even makes us smarter. Yet researchers are finding that more than 10 percent of the population is chronically sleep deprived.
