EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE: HETROGENEOUS GROUPS ARE BETTER PROBLEM SOLVERS.

  We never met a Board of Directors or task force team that didn't think it was plagued by TOO many different opinions! But we do see a trend for like minded people to feel comfortable about working with each other to such an extend that the members are blind about the degree to which they engage in Group Think.

What techniques do YOU use to insure that your Board and group is appropriately diversified?

How to Describe Work-Related Accomplishments 

  Being able to write down or discuss work related accomplishments is often harder than it appears. Ask anyone who has ever had a staff job!
