I’ve read a lot of business books over the years, but only a few make the cut as books I’d recommend to a colleague, friend, or family member. Here are some of my favorites:
Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity by David Allen
There’s a saying that if you want something done, give it to […]
Being laid off in an economy overtaken by recession is not something the work force of today can tread lightly upon. Many employers are announcing that they will be experiencing cutbacks and layoffs due to the slow down in the economy.

I thought it would be a fun change of pace to do a review as a comparison between a book and movie, as opposed to our regular book review format. Over my winter break, I watched my brother’s girlfriend with her head buried in a book. She was entranced with the novel, The Other Boleyn […]
This has been one of the worst years that I can remember for colds and flu in the UK. Nowadays if you want to protect yourself from flu you may be entitled to a flu vaccination from your doctor. Even if you’re not eligible you can often be vaccinated at the local supermarket for about […]
As I was packing for a recent business trip, I unearthed my first Coach briefcase. I’d bought it as a reward for myself when I’d finished the training program for my first job out of college as a systems consultant. It had been a rigorous, challenging program that had involved several all-nighters, two months of […]
Entering the wilderness, either by choice or chance, has oft been used as a vehicle where a character enters, experiences a transformation, and emerges a changed, and usually, better person. As a curious group, those of us at All Things Girls pondered the opportunity to delve into the midst of the moments while in the […]
