Employees are the true drivers of commerce. Top management sets the strategy, overseas the balance sheets, cash flow, profit and loss statements, service objectives and production goals. The employees working in each of these departments are the true producers of each of these objectives. When hiring, too often the focus is only on skill set. Hiring strong employees, finding a cultural fit and reducing turnover requires understanding what the employee hopes to not only contribute to the company but also gain from their efforts. Is a growth track established? Is promoting from within the ranks a priority? Each of these…

Photography is an art. Just like any other work of art, a great photograph causes others to feel emotion, perhaps even to feel something they’ve never quite felt. Emotion is one of those things that link us all together as people. We’ve all felt joy, sorrow or anger, and when we see that feeling reflected by art, we can empathize with the subject and understand something in the picture that goes beyond the simple images shown. Emotion is what separates a mere photograph from true art. A picture of an old but well-kept house may be beautiful, but adding occupants…

It may be a cliché, but it’s true: nobody’s perfect. Most call center workers have to take dozens of calls a day, and something is bound to slip somewhere. Orders can be mixed up, service requests can get lost in the shuffle, and tempers can fray, both for the call center representative or the caller. Mistakes have an unfortunate tendency to snowball, turning what was just a simple typo, forgotten fact, or slip of the tongue into a slew of bad reviews or even legal action. Call recording can’t prevent mistakes, but it can certainly rectify or remedy some. Here…

Word of mouth has always been the best way to get patient referrals, no matter what kind of healthcare services you might provide. Yet, the way people talk to one another about something they like (or dislike) has changed drastically in the last decade or two. It used to be that a good hospital or doctor would be mentioned in casual conversation or over the phone, but today, it’s all online.

What if they forget to take medicines? What if they fall? Or, what if…

It is becoming more and more common to find videos that are created simply by people who are able to record video footage directly from their screen. Some of these are video guides or tutorials, while others even encompass Skype calls that are recorded for posterity, webcam footage, or even online events such as webinars and conferences. If you’re thinking about doing the same, the one key ingredient that you need is a screen capture software – such as the Movavi Screen Capture Studio. Record and Edit Professional-Looking Videos Part of what makes the Movavi Screen Capture Studio distinguish itself…

“One fine day, a man sat in the corner of his dark and dreary room, sipping tea …. …and wondering what to write next. Authors and writers are often stuck in what everyone calls the “writer’s block”. To rid themselves of this evil, they bring along a few of their own “tools” to aid their writing process. For some, this would be a strong cup of coffee, and for others it could be just a pencil and a notepad. However, these methods are quite passé. Welcome to the digital era, where there is “smart” solution to everything—yes, even to a…
