Key Performance Indicators for Dummies
Out of the Blue
The first idiom I remember in English is broke down. In 'Out of the Blue' I learnt some new idioms like ticked pink, shrinking violet, diffrent horse. The illustrations are minimal but the colour is deep spread.
An Idiom is a very powerful thing. in English, it first happened to me in sixth grade in a lesson called 'I met a Bushman'. It was the narrator saying his car 'broke down'.
'Out of the Blue - A Book of Color Idioms and Silly Pictures' is a great creative book for kids. I myself walk out of the book with few new idioms - tickled pink, yellow bellied and so on.
The illustrations are neat and the colour is emphatic.
There is a good mix of culture - brown bag. Red tape and Red letters illustrations are different from what I have in my mind.

Its a great idea to make a page with a color Idiom and ask kids to guess it or give an idiom and ask them to illustrate it.

Empathy and teaching
I realised that I try to think that for a person to learn something new, will need time to get adjusted to oit, to the extent that I might never let them try the new task. My husband has a knack of getting others to become self independent.

Intel's Professional Development & Career Series 2015
Intel's Professional Development & Career Series 2015 had
Eric Rodriguez as Emcee who referred to Ariana Huffington's 30000 days. There was a reference to the Oakland initiative. I wondered if individuals could help in innovative programs like this. Barbara Mcallister presented a workshop on Emotional Intelligence. During her talk I was able to see redeployment in line with Zero based budgeting (ZBB).
In there, it was amazing to see how during the break, people all moved out of the chairs. The whole periphery of the hall wa filled with people standing and networking. Eric's advice, dont be in a rush to talk to as many people, your network should be of people you can call upon for favour. The way you do that is asking how you can help.
One of the HR lady suggested I find a mentor.

A Day
is an interesting thing
It might seem
that your days
are not different
but when you try
to say what you
do in the evenings
then if you can
recall
you will see that
there is not one
pattern
not one thing
that you do the
same
everyday
we have a plan
but something
happens
and makes the
days not
recallable
