When Change Is In the Wind...Heads Up!
In these days of takeovers and mergers, of downsizings and lean management, chances are that you are going to be caught in a job upheaval at least once in your career. Probably more than once!Change in the wind may come like an invigorating breeze on a hot humid night. For instance, your boss is promoted to a new job and you have to get used to reporting to someone new, who turns out to be even better.

That’s survival lesson number one. The worst thing you can do is cling to the old ways of doing things or to ignore what’s happening right before your eyes. To deal effectively with change, you need to pay attention to four stages of workplace transition.Stage 1. Something’s Up: What To Do Before The Change.If you’re lucky, you’ll have some advance warning and time to prepare. Sometimes you simply have the uneasy feeling that something is up.

An Introduction To Audio & Video Applications
Dear Reader:Once thought of as entertaining novelties in site design, video and audio clips are proving themselves to be valuable additions to website content.The typical application is as teasers to spark the interest of prospective customers. The best examples of websites that use this technology are retail sites. Borrowing from the idea of movie trailers or radio ads, these websites will design their pages so that a clip outlining product highlights is made available in hopes of persuading visitors to purchase the product they've just seen displayed.So who can benefit from this idea?♦ Sites selling movies or music can add clips of either product to give visitors a real sense of what they'll be buying.♦ Websites selling published materials can add narrated passages or sample chapters of the material to the site.♦ Retail sites can record a short video file of the product in action and add that to the site, so visitors can see it in use.♦ Anyone wanting to give customer testimonials a more 'human' touch can record these and add them to the site.These uses are probably the most common right now, but really the only limit to how you can use video or audio clips is your own imagination.

We could learn something about building brands for organizations by also asking,What is it that makes some people connect so well with other people?In many ways, organizations are like individuals. Each has its own specific "fingerprint" -- strengths, character, and personality -- that makes it unique and recognizable. It's how we get to know our friends and understand what it is about them that we like.In a world where no one has time to carefully weigh all available brand options, this fingerprint acts as shorthand to help us sort through the maze, a very real point of value at a time when it is increasingly difficult to tell one product or service from another.When an organization's brand fingerprint is clearly defined and articulated so that customers, shareholders, distributors, employees, and partners consistently feel they "know" the organization and know what to expect from it, magic happens.This is when high emotional engagement occurs. This is when "raving fans" and customer loyalty are created.
