How to Survive Stress and Anxiety at Work
Stress and anxiety are two terms I am hearing more and more these days from my clients, and this is a cause of real concern. I wanted to write about stress and anxiety at work, not from a purely legal angle, but also from a human one.

Is Medium Worth Using, Part 2
You might remember I wrote an article about Medium. I pointed out some of its flaws, such as curators decide if your stuff is worth reading, and if they don’t believe it is, you can’t get any organic views of your post. You can only get traffic by driving people to your post with a “friend link.”

Phillip Green and Should Gagging Orders Be Banned?
What a gagging order is, how they are organised and what effect do they have? When you hear about gagging orders it will usually be a reference to a confidentiality clause in a settlement agreement document. A settlement agreement is essentially a contract made between you and your employer if you have been treated badly at work and you wish to leave with a lump sum payment. For example, if you were harassed by your boss, or, more commonly, if you are being unfairly dismissed. In exchange for money, you leave quietly and agree to not go to court or bring allegations to the public arena.

Scriptwriting Conventions
As a recap, last time we looked at an overview of scriptwriting, and started to look at the basic elements of the script. We stated that a script is quite different from any other form of writing and it's a tool that only lays out the bare bones of a production.

How to Open a Successful Business
The decision of opening up your own business is a very important one. It requires immediate action if you want to better your chances of being successful. Even if you do have a solid business plan and are doing your best, your first business could still possibly fail. That is because failure in the business world has a different meaning than the one we’re usually taught in school. In business, failure means learning, and learning means eventual success. Therefore, it is extremely important that you try your best to be well prepared about all the things you need to know before you open your first business.

Write What You Feel...
"Write what you know" is an oft-touted bit of advice writers cling to like socks on the back of a sweater fresh out of the dryer. What many writers both new and experienced don't realize is that writing what you know isn't enough. You also have to write what you feel.

How to Lead When You’re Not the Leader
You’re young, you have just been hired into a company with established and reputable employees that have long track-records of success (or long track-records of key relationships that have helped keep them in the positions they are in). Or, maybe you’re in the midst of a career transition. You have been in the workforce for about 10 years now and are transitioning to a new phase, new industry, and new company. You may be an entry-level employee, or simply in a role where you are not overseeing a group of people. This can be an extremely difficult position to be in, especially if you have any iota of ambition, vision, and drive. You have ideas, you have fresh energy to breathe some “new life into the company.” How do you go about making organizational adjustments, policy and procedure suggestions without sounding entitled and overstepping your metaphorical reach? It’s a tough place to waver while you’re trying to establish credibility yourself. The first place to start is by recognizing your ambition and drive are not liabilities to your company, but assets. However, there is a way to position yourself as the guide to your company and staffs growth while not playing the hero. That’s the important thing to note. As soon as you position yourself as a hero swooping in saving the damsel in distress, you will immediately turn off your supervisors and will label yourself as an entitled, discontent, know-it-all. Definitely not the label you want. So what can you do? How do you lead when you’re not the leader?
