Natural disasters that have devastated the nation this year have reminded Americans about the importance of preparedness. That was the focus of the Ad Council and FEMA’s Ready campaign created pro bono by Chicago-based advertising agency Leo Burnett. The innovative campaign earned Leo Burnett the Ad Council’s top creative award of the year – the Gold Bell for Creative Excellence. Marc Pritchard, Global Branding Officer of The Proctor and Gamble Company and Ad Council Chairman of the Board, presented the award last night at the Ad Council’s 59th Annual Public Service Award Dinner. Silver and Bronze Bells were also awarded to Havas Worldwide New York and Grey New York for their work on the Unplanned Pregnancy Prevention and Stroke Awareness campaigns, respectively.

As global organizations grapple with a more technologically intensive and complex agenda, fissures in traditional approaches to talent management and leadership development are increasingly visible. This was a key theme that emerged at ON Talent, an invitation-only discussion hosted at Deloitte University where leading names in talent argued that the prevailing models of talent development no longer hold. New models like the corporate lattice that are better attuned to the times must be adopted or the risk of HR becoming less relevant is high.
“The system is broken,” said Annmarie Neal, founder of the Center for Leadership Innovation. “If the economic models of the last era of business won’t translate to today’s environment, why would our organizational and talent models translate? In fact, the way we have traditionally approached talent can be an impediment in the 21st century.
Auf den Etappen der diesjährigen Mille Miglia hat der Himmel zeitweise zwar alle seine Schleusen geöffnet und stellte an die Fahrer noch größere Anforderungen als sonst, um ihre wertvollen Oldtimer nach rund 1.600 Kilometern wohlbehalten in Brescia wieder ins Ziel zu bringen. Der Stimmung sowohl bei den Teilnehmern als auch den zahllosen Zuschauern tat dies jedoch keinen Abbruch. Gut geschützt von Regenschirmen, stehen die eingefleischten Oldtimer-Fans, von denen viele aus zahlreichen Ländern nach Italien gereist sind, aber auch diejenigen, die erst ernsthafte Fans werden wollen, dicht gedrängt an den Straßenrändern, beklatschten die historischen Fahrzeuge - gleichgültig, ob nun ein Porsche, Mercedes, Bentley, Jaguar, BMW, VW oder Bugatti an ihnen vorbeirollte. Aber was war schon die Unannehmlichkeit im strömenden Regen zu stehen gegen den Anblick der alten wertvollen Rennwagen. Am Ende zählte nur dabei gewesen zu sein.
Lexmark International, Inc. (NYSE: LXK) today announced its positioning in the Leaders quadrant by leading industry analyst firm Gartner, Inc. in their “Magic Quadrant: Managed Print Services Worldwide” report.
In the Gartner Magic Quadrant report, Lexmark was evaluated on “completeness of vision” as well as its “ability to execute.” According to Gartner, “Leaders provide MPS to a wide range of customers, including the largest and most geographically dispersed, so they must demonstrate a truly global reach. They must demonstrate not only the skills to deliver today’s MPS, but also the understanding, initiative and resources to prepare for tomorrow’s MPS. Leaders characteristically augment the full scope of MPS with a wide range of added-value services. As a result, they are frequently shortlisted by large and midsize customers.”

Although many people have toyed with the idea of installing solar panels to generate their own electricity, they may not be aware quite how simple the whole process can be.
A brand new stop motion video from energy efficiency specialists, The Eco Experts, shows fitting a panel to your roof really is child’s play. The brains behind the stop motion animation was Eco Experts’ employee, Ian Wright, who spent two days playing with Lego to create the film.
