...over involvement is becoming a problem because they can take the fun out of sports for the kids. Parent’s voices can go along way. Yelling and cheering on players and teams is a good thing. Parents should be excited and giving the kids good complements. But when parents display bad sportsmanship it is a different story. As parents are yelling mean statements they are not thinking about how that might make that kid feel. The child’s parents are most likely around somewhere and may get upset as well. If kids are hearing insults and inappropriate words yelled at them the game would also become less fun and hard to focus on. Some kid’s use it to their advantage, and play better because they want to prove themselves. But that’s not always the case. College and professional sports are seen everywhere in current society. Sports are on TV, in newspapers, on signs and bulletins, and most big cities have an arena or stadium for teams to play in. The majorities of families have seen or follow sports. With that being said, a lot of little kids growing up dream to be a professional or...

...Insights Multimedia Events Marketing Programs About Us How an executive coach can help improve employee morale and productivity 03.01.2012 | Northern California Ricci M. Victorio, CSP, Managing Partner, Mosaic Family Business Center As companies continue to try to do more with less, the stress of doing the work of two or more people is taking a toll on employees. And that is making them less productive, less motivated and less likely to do their best work, says Ricci Victorio, CSP, managing partner at Mosaic Family Business Center. “As companies deal with lower budgets and tighten their belts, they are putting ever-greater demands on their employees,” says Victorio. “As an employer, you need to help your employees fill their cups back up, because they are being significantly drained. Whenever you have people being pushed at absolute top levels performing on all 100 cylinders all of the time, they run out of gas. And when they run out of emotional gas, negative behaviors start springing up.” Smart Business spoke with Victorio about how one-on-one coaching with employees can improve morale and help them work better together as a team. What is the value of executive coaching? It can improve morale and provide an internal vision for employees as they ask: What is my value? Why am I here? What am I doing? How can I do it better? Improved morale increases productivity and, in some cases, employers see a change in the first week, with people taking responsibility for...

...Richard Attias Become a fan Email The Development Factor: The Challenge of Sport in the 21st Century Posted: 10/21/2014 8:39 am EDT Updated: 10/29/2014 9:59 Sport occupies a peculiar place in world dynamics in that it surpasses the limitations of geographical boundaries and social classes. Still, a gap remains between developed and developing nations when it comes to sport. In the industrialized world, sport as an economic sector represents approximately 2% of GDP. For developing economies, though, the challenge remains making sport a factor of economic development, and a driver for social change, so it benefits all citizens in the long term. UNESCO's 1978 International Charter of Physical Education and Sport classified sport as "a fundamental right for all." But the low place sport occupies in the developing world's priorities shows that its importance as an educational and social tool is not yet universal. Everyone agrees that sport contributes to economic development by creating jobs and stimulating business activity. The organization of a major sporting event, for example, is a great opportunity for the local economy. The thousands of people who attend will spend money on food, lodging, transportation and other, related tourist activities. However, in recent years, we see these economic benefits are obvious only the short term. If we take the example of South Africa in 2010, the positive impact of the World Cup was, in terms of job creation and reduced crime...

Why is there a new or renewed interest in the field of project management? More and more projects are being done by a variety of organizations. The projects are more complex and often involve the use of new technologies. Organizations are struggling to find better ways to manage their projects. 2. What is a project? How is it different from what most people do in their day-to-day jobs? A project is “a temporary endeavor undertaken to create a unique product or service” (PMBOK( Guide, 2000, p. 4). Projects are different from day-to-day activities primarily because they have focused goals and definite beginning and ending dates. 3. What is project management?

...1.0 Recruitment & Retention Plan Recruitment refers to the process of attracting, screening and selecting qualified people for a position within an organization (Sheryl & Amy, 2012). According to the case study, the major issue is the difficulty in attracting new employees. To be more specific, Hospital ABC found that there are still vacancies in critical areas that have yet to be filled up. Even with extended block, the Hospital will have difficulty attracting good employees as there are many other private hospitals competing for the same pool of talent. These hospitals are not afraid to pay above average market rates to secure these employees. Organizations within the healthcare industry are competing for qualified applicants to safeguard future growth. As such, there is a need for organizations to analyze the existing market competition for talent and create the corresponding responses in terms of competitive reward packages. The recruitment policies of the competitors also affect the recruitment function of the organizations. To face the competition, many organizations have to change their recruitment policies according to the policies being followed by the other competitors. The recruitment policy of an organization states the objectives of recruitment and provides a structure for implementation of recruitment program. Of primary importance is to ensure the organization’s recruitment plan is reaching out to the right talent pool in filling open roles. At the same time...

I Identify five ways to manage workplace stress. S ylvia Noreen thought that working at a small hospital in Prince Edward Island would reduce the stress she had experienced as a nurse in Ontario for 17 years. Instead, she discovered that Stewart Memorial Hospital nurses in Tyne Valley also experience unacceptable stress levels due to budget cuts and staff shortages. “There can be a lot of demands made on you,” says Noreen. “The workload can get quite strenuous at times.” With no vacations during her first year at Stewart, Noreen’s scheduled days off were precious time to recharge her batteries. Unfortunately, those moments were fewer than she had hoped. “We’re faced with being called back on our days off,” Noreen says. “It is trying at times.” Canadian nurses and other health care workers are feeling some of the highest levels of stress and burnout of any occupation across the country. With Montreal-area emergency rooms filled to 167 percent, nurses at St. Luc Hospital in Montreal recently...
