Influence costs and the reporting of skill deficiencies
There remains a conventional wisdom amongst economists that the UK suffers from a seriously under-skilled workforce and that an effective increase in the provision of training is key to economic regeneration. This article, while accepting the link between an underskilled workforce and economic performance, questions the reporting of skill shortages by personnel departments. This is based upon the notion that employees can spend considerable time …
Mind wide open
Using a mix of experiential reportage, personal storytelling, and fresh scientific discovery, Steven Johnson describes how the brain works-its chemicals, structures, and subroutines-and how these systems connect to the day-to-day realities of individual lives.

Moreover, boys who experienced more aggressive sibling interactions were more likely to be nominated by thei…

It was assumed that members with greater tolerance for ambiguity fit better within more autonomous open churc…
