Through my journey so far, I was fortunate enough to work closely with colleagues on the same goals and personal growth. The disbalance between employee benefits was something I have struggled to bring to everyone in the team in the companies I've worked with. That is why I want to bring this to as many companies, with the goal of unified employee benefits across companies. #HR #HumanResources

Are you out of the tournament? I’m not talking about your college, I’m talking about your company. March is “mad” because 68 basketball teams fight to reach the national championship. But everyday, your company is fighting to win customers and keep them through to the end. Are you a high ranking team ripe to get upset by the lower level competition? Or, are you the scrappy newcomer banking on your own Cinderella Story? Or are you a blue blood that can handle the pressure? If you want to make it to the end of the line with your customers, you must be easy to do business with. The highest seed companies work hard togethe as a team, have a solid strategy, but can adapt to the changing environment. The final four is great, but only the top company wins for each customer. Will you be there top pick?

Managing a complex bid can sometimes feel like a high-speed Formula 1 race against time. But just like in F1, success lies in the hands of a well-coordinated team that works seamlessly together. A well-oiled bid team understands the importance of collaboration, precision, and execution to make sure they cross the finish line ahead of the competition. Here’s why bid teams are like F1 pit crews. #bidmanagement #govcon #governmentcontracting

Congratulations to Cricket Australia on a great sixth #cricketworldcup win. Beating the #indiancricketteam in India is a great achievement by any nation. I have read some social media posts, articles on websites, and watched some reports on TV, claiming it was the greatest win ever, etc, etc, which I think is a bit over the top. 😳 The Indian team had its flaws, ie, no tail, and Australia were the first team to expose this. The lack of an Indian tail was well known before the start of the competition. It was a gamble to try and win every game without the tail being exposed. And for the gamble to work, the Indian bowlers had to produce the goods and bowl the opposition out. Sadly for India, the bowlers didn't produce the goods in the 🏆 World Cup final. Mohammed Shami was the player of the tournament for me. 👏 But even he couldn't bowl out the Aussies on his own. Ultimately, Australia had the better balanced team. Flair at the top of the innings, steady batters at four and five - capable of keeping calm when the game was in the balance, a competent keeper, a top class spinner, and a pace bowling trio that is simply the best in the world. Give Cummins, Starc and Hazlewood the right conditions, and they will destroy any team. Even a batting line up as good as India's. Which is the best in the world in my view. 30 overs bowled by Cummins, Starc and Hazlewood on a helpful wicket is enough to stifle most teams. Ben Stokes showed the best way to negate the trio in the recent Ashes. And that was by producing benign wickets and turning it into a batting competition on a lifeless flat track. Giving those three a helpful pitch was India's second, and probably biggest, failing of the whole competition. Having said that, I genuinely believe that Australia are far stronger in the field, than they are batting. So for them to withstand that onslaught at the start of their innings when Jasprit Bumrah was unplayable, was a great effort Australia was well able to make a mess of that small chase from 3/47, so from that perspective, it was a great performance. Greatest ever though, not for me. Next for the Aussies is to win the T20 World Cup in 2024, and equal England’s record of holding both white ball World Cups simultaneously. Do that, and this team can be talked about as one of Australia's greatest ever. 👏 #sportsbetting | #sportsmedia | #contentwriting | #guestposting | #sportbettingtips | #contentwritingtips | #betting | #sportscontent

Out here celebrating a few more wins.

It ain't over til it's over. I'm celebrating perseverance this morning. The Teen's h.s. robotics team has made it to the Regional Playoffs! And they got there the long way. The regional playoffs have multiple avenues for admission. The most straightforward is to either place first in the skills portion of the tournament or to win the whole tournament. The Teen's team had a strong season, but didn't win. Their skills placement has been good, but not outstanding. The hardest route is to win one of the judged awards that comes with admission to regionals. The Excellence Award winner always goes to regionals, and others sometimes do, depending on which tournament: the Design Award and the Innovate Award are two frequent pathways, but they're not always so. The Teen's team won a Judge's Award, but that's not one of the regional pathways. Yesterday was the last tournament of the regular season. The Teen's team was undefeated through the first part of the day, then lost (and out) in the quarterfinals. Their skills performance wasn't good. But there's a third path: to perform on the skills test well enough across the season that the regional competition pulls you from that ranking to fill out the roster after the tournament & award winners are seeded. And that's how her team got to regionals: hard work, eyes on the long-term goal, making incremental improvements and practicing. They could have counted themselves out, but they didn't. And now, they're competing for a chance to go to the World Championship. How do you stay focused on the bigger picture, even when a small piece of it doesn't go to plan?
