0 Chicago Public Schools cancels classes due to winter weather
By YOBR on Tuesday, February 1, 2011
Chicago Public Schools officials say they can't risk the safety of students and staff.
The district's interim chief executive officer, Terry Mazany, made the announcement Tuesday afternoon. He says the decision was made based on projections of continued heavy snowfall through the evening and overnight.
Officials say all school-related programs and scheduled after-school activities will also be canceled.
The blizzard bearing down on the city has already forced airlines to halt flights into the city's two major airports and prompted downtown retailers to close shops early.
Wednesday's planned closing is the first for Chicago Public Schools since January 1999.

0 Set a Standard of High Expectations with Accountability
By YOBR on Monday, January 31, 2011
It has been my experience in consulting with organizations the past seven years that few business leaders are consistent enough in communicating job performance expectations. Even fewer do a good job of holding their employees accountable to the expected job performance. This is a lesson women business leaders must learn.
The reason this is an important area for business women to focus on is that a recent study of 34,000 employees showed 60 percent of those who reported their companies were doing too little to correct poor employee performance said they were not positively engaged in their work. On the flip side the survey showed that 73 percent who believed their company did address poor performers were positively engaged in their work.
On championship athletic teams, poor performance is not tolerated. Under performers are held accountable and replaced. Although in the business world it is more difficult to replace employees from a practical, tactical and legal standpoint, professional women need to understand that it should be just as easy to set clear expectations for employees and hold them accountable to those performance expectations.
If a standard of high expectations is the norm within a company culture, team members that are a fit for that type of culture appreciate the fact that they and their team members are held to a high standard and, as such, will participate in holding each other accountable to the standard.
Another key for women in leadership positions to remember is that they must also hold themselves to the same high standards expected of others in the organization. They must model the behavior they expect from their team members. The quickest way to lose the engagement of otherwise positive, high-performing employees is to show up with a “do as I say, not as I do” leadership style.
At a leadership conference many years ago, I heard retired Army General Norman Schwartzkopf give a keynote address in which he discussed this very subject, saying, “Successful organizations set high standards. When high standards are set and clearly communicated, more times than not, people will work to meet and even exceed those standards.” This is the foundation of any championship team.
In working with both male and female business leaders, I’ve noticed two challenges to applying this approach. The first is that leaders fail to set and communicate the high performance standards for fear of being seen as too demanding or autocratic. The second, which is related to the first, is the fear of not being liked.
I’ve learned from my own personal experience that it is much better to be respected than liked. If, as a business leader, you try to be liked, you will end up being neither liked nor respected. If you lead by communicating clear expectations with specific accountabilities and you give your people the latitude to learn from their mistakes while celebrating and reinforcing their wins, you will be both respected and liked.
This is the reputation to which professional women on their way to leadership roles should be aspiring.

0 9 Tips to Increase Focus
By YOBR on
Whether I have ADD or I’m just a product of this crazy-paced, technology-ridden world, my ability to focus is not what I’d like it to be. And, I get the impression I’m not alone. Many of us suffer from constant distractions that make it difficult to concentrate. The good news, however, is that there are simple things you can do to help:
In-the-Moment Tips:
1. Computer Alerts. Working on a computer can be very distracting. Especially with the sounds and pop-ups that alert us to fresh emails, tweets, IMs, etc. Every time a “ding” goes off, I tend to stop what I’m doing and re-focus on the newest “ding.” Turn off sound and pop-up features, and log out of email, chat, and twitter applications to enable you to fully focus on your current task.
2. Phones. If you get a lot of phone calls and have trouble ignoring them, forward them to voice mail, turn off your phone or silence the ringer. Set aside a specific time during the day to get back to people via phone.
3. Make Lists and Make Plans. Listing out what you want to accomplish and how you want to do so helps to keep you on track. Without a plan, however, it is easy to put things on hold to check email, clean or surf the Web. Set time lines and “deadlines” to each of your tasks. This will hold you responsible to completing things on time.
4. Declutter and Organize. Clutter often equals distraction. If you have lots of papers and random items lying around your desk, they will constantly be a reminder of other things on which you could focus. Organize your work area so that you can focus during work time and deal with the “in-box” in a timely way.
5. Create Intermittent Active Time. When our bodies and environments are stagnant, our brains can start to drift or go on auto pilot. Take breaks throughout the day that get you moving and into different areas of your home or office. It will help you to refocus more effectively when you come back to work.
6. Get Away. If you are in an office environment and have trouble focusing at your desk, try booking a small conference room or work space that allows you to get away from the distractions. If you are doing a lot of computer work, see if you can “book” a laptop for the day and go somewhere that is quiet. If you are at home and your family is making it difficult to concentrate, go to a neighborhood coffee shop and spend a couple of hours there getting focused.
Long-term Tips:
1. Diet. Our diets can have a tremendous impact on our ability to focus. Eating very large, heavy meals can cause our digestive tract to “hoard” the blood that could be used by our brains. Eating lighter, more frequent meals sustains our energy levels and keeps blood flow stable to the brain. Further, avoid processed foods that often contain preservatives, dyes, and other artificial and synthetic ingredients. Research has shown that these ingredients promote hyperactivity in individuals who have ADD and ADHD, as well as those individuals who don’t.
2. Exercise. Exercise allows us to release stress, clear our minds, and think clearly. The best way to set the stage for the day is to exercise early in the morning. This will help you to think through your day and how you want to tackle your “to-dos.”
3. Sleep. One of the biggest contributors to lack of concentration is lack of rest or, believe it or not, too much rest. Your mind depends on proper sleep to function optimally and concentrate. Aim to get seven to eight solid hours each night.
0 Increase Your Likability Factor
By YOBR on
Just as many roads lead to success in the workplace, many different personalities attract followers. But the following traits seem universally to attract people and open their minds and hearts.
People respond to humans much more favorably than they do to machines. When you communicate with colleagues, never fear to let them see your humanity.
As a result, even the smallest courtesies kindle a fire that ignites chemistry and builds kinship. The courtesy of saying “hello” when you come into the office after being away. The courtesy of letting people know when you’re going to be away for an extended period. The courtesy of honoring policies about reserving rooms, spaces, and equipment for activities. The courtesy of a simple “please,” “thank you,” and “you’re welcome” for small favors.
Self-deprecating humor can open hearts and minds to make people receptive to ideas in ways words alone cannot.
Credible communicators show humility in innumerable ways:
* They let others “showcase” by delivering key messages instead of always having to be “on stage” themselves
* They let others feel important by “interpreting,” “passing on,” and “applying” their goals and initiatives.
* They get input from others—and consider that input worthy of a response. (They don’t ask for input “just for drill” if they don’t plan to consider it.)
* They excite others by asking for their help, cooperation and buy-in
* They share the limelight by telling stories about star performers
* They share leadership roles by telling success stories of other leaders
* They communicate awareness and appreciation of the efforts and results of other people
Certainly, credibility involves a balancing act between establishing a noteworthy track record and fading away into the furniture. People do want to know that you know what you’re talking about. But arrogance antagonizes them. Expertise tinged with a touch of humility goes down far better.
Your look, language, and likable personality will have a huge impact on whether people accept what you say. If your message isn’t sinking in, if you’re not getting the action you want, maybe you should take it, well … personally.
0 A Professional Woman’s Guide to Office Essentials
By YOBR on
Dress to Impress
The first step to dressing well is to acknowledge that your clothes send a message about your work ethic. “Whether it’s fair or not, people size you up by what you wear,” says Mary Lou Andre, fashion consultant and author of Ready to Wear (Penguin, 2004). Ironed slacks and a crisp blouse will earn the boss’s applause, while scuffed pumps and fraying sweaters will draw attention you don’t want.
Shallow as it seems, the state of your shoes affects your coworkers’ view of you. But look on the bright side—with the right clothes, anyone can make a great impression. “When you present yourself in a professional manner, you come across as more credible,” says Andre. “Dressing appropriately shows respect for your coworkers and puts everyone at ease.” You have to get dressed every morning anyway. Why not dress well?
Even seasoned professionals scratch their heads over the terms “business casual” and “corporate attire.” If you’re confused about the dress code in your office, sneak a peak at a female superior. Does she wear hose under skirts or keep her legs bare? Are her shoes open- or closed-toe? Does she wear sweaters and slacks or skirt suits? Taking a hint from her will keep your style on track and show her that you’re serious about your work. Don’t dress for the job you have. “Dress for the job you want,” says Andre.
Invest in the Classics
You don’t need Pelosi’s bank account to cop her impeccable style. Save money on items that you’ll wear infrequently, and invest in a few stellar pieces that will last for years.
You can’t go wrong with a tailored black pantsuit and a crisp white blouse, but it can become boring day in and day out. Splurge on other items, but only if they’re high quality. Try a sweater dress, one of Andre’s top ten fashion picks. It’s feminine but will keep you boardroom-appropriate. Work the look by adding a leather belt or tall boots. Layer it over patterned tights if your office is casual; slip on nude hose for a more conservative look.
Andre also recommends every woman own a pair of classic black pumps or loafers, which lend polish to any outfit. Keep a brown or taupe pair of heels on hand too.
When you shop, look for quality, versatility, and sophistication. If you invest in well-made pieces, they’ll last for years. “It’s not about having a lot of clothes,” says Andre, “but about having the right ones.”
Pull It Together
Once you have your staples, focus on the little extras. Forget PDAs and Blackberries—lint rollers and irons are this season’s best business tools. Make sure your clothes are clean, pressed, and in good condition. Taking care of your clothes will bring your look together and lend sophistication—no matter how much you paid for your wardrobe.
Don’t underestimate the power of a great tailor. Even a $10 blouse will look like a million bucks if it fits you just right. “Every woman should make best friends with a seamstress,” as Andre puts it.
Fun with Fashion
Your clothes should fit your professional image more closely than they fit your body. Even if you have great legs or amazing cleavage, you’re at the office to work. “More skin equals less power,” warns Andre.
But you don’t have to hide your femininity under a potato sack to climb the corporate ladder. Follow Andres’ 80/20 rule: Keep 80 percent of your outfit standard, and have fun with the other 20 percent. If you love to dress sexy, slip on a conservative pantsuit—and your hottest pair of stilettos. If you love animal prints, skip the head-to-toe jungle fever and rock a leopard cami under a classic blazer.
Experimenting is what makes fashion fun, and accessories are a great place to try out new trends. You can rev up any office outfit by adding a colorful scarf, leather belt, detailed handbag, strappy shoes, or sparkly earrings. Attention-grabbing red accents are another of Andre’s top ten picks for this season. Pair a red handbag with a neutral suit or don a red A-line skirt with a black silk blouse and black boots. You’ll add pizzazz and still look professional.

Truth: Your key question should be: Will anyone be worse off financially if I die? Even if you have no dependents, you might leave behind credit card debt, student loans, a car payment or funeral expenses.
A small life insurance policy would cover these costs. Moreover, buying while you’re young can help you lock in lower rates and guarantee coverage if you develop health problems later in life.
Myth 2: Only people with kids need life insurance.
Truth: Chances are your spouse depends on your income, regardless of whether you have children. Could he or she manage to pay the mortgage and all other household bills and debts alone? A life insurance policy could help your partner keep the house and maintain the same standard of living.
Myth 3: If your employer provides coverage, there’s no need for more.
Truth: Many corporations provide their employees with free life insurance worth once or twice their annual salary. Similarly, the military’s Servicemembers Group Life Insurance (SGLI) offers great rates on policies up to $400,000. These are nice benefits, but if you leave your company or the military without a separate policy in place, it may be difficult or even too late to purchase one when you need it most.
Myth 4: Life insurance is too expensive.
Truth: It probably costs less than you think. For example, a healthy thirty-year-old male can get $250,000 of twenty-year term coverage for less than $15 per month. And as average life expectancies continue to increase, life insurance prices keep going down.
Myth 5: Insurance policies are all the same.
Truth: Policies that have similar names may differ substantially in what they cover. So before you buy based on price alone, it pays to read the fine print.
Myth 6: There’s no reason to insure a stay-at-home spouse.
Truth: Your stay-at-home spouse may not earn an income, but think of the services he or she may provide for free: childcare, meal preparation, housekeeping, and more. With that spouse gone, life suddenly gets a lot more expensive. Life insurance can defray the cost of hiring help in your partner’s absence.
Myth 7: Buying life insurance is a hassle.
Truth: Today, you can use simple online tools to determine your life insurance needs, compare options, and apply on the spot. Explore at your own pace with no high-pressure sales tactics. And if you have questions, call us.
