Working It

Cool.

1. Cellphones (in general)
I can’t imagine life without a handphone now.

2. Athletes
At least the ones who don’t take performance enhancing drugs, hehe!

3. Facebook
Especially the games, hehe!

4. LCD TVs
TVs are cool in general, but thin, Full HD, energy-efficient, and high-contrast LCD TVs take the top spot for me.

5. Game Shows
I am a sucker for them, haha!

6. Electric cars
Or at least all of the cars that don’t run on fossil fuel anymore.

7. Mp3 Players
The Walkman was already amazing a couple of decades ago, but now, who could have thought that music players, which are smaller than the palm of your hand, could allow you to play more than a thousand songs?

8. The Black Eyed Peas
Aren’t they the coolest?

9. Target
I could spend a whole day there. Besides, walking on aisle after aisle after aisle seems to work for me better than effective weight loss pills. :)

10. Air Conditioning
Literally. It’s been so hot and humid lately, the AC has been both my and my little daughter’s savior.

In today’s cut-throat professional arena, it pays to have an edge over the competition. Most professionals take the MBA route or try to secure an Organizational development degree, as most managerial positions require the skills from these degrees. However, I personally feel that the work force is already saturated with people holding these degrees and as such do not offer anything new or inspired to the table.

In this case, there are other avenues which professionals could explore, too, such as a Masters in Organizational Leadership, as offered by Gonzaga University. Their innovative online masters in leadership provides aspiring leaders with the tools necessary to lead in any organization, as well as open more career opportunities for management positions.

As I said, it pays to have an edge over the competition. For you, an aspiring manager, this could be it. :)
