This article is about “social skill activities”.  So what am I going to tell you about?  Basically, the following:

  • fun team building activities
  • social skills games
  • social skills ideas
  • free social skills activities
  • social skills lessons and activities

 

As a team leader, there are certain things you can do to encourage better communication and greater involvement – for example, there are SOCIAL SKILLS GAMES you can use to both lift spirits and enable improved communication.

I found a great one at Amazon called The Big Book of Team Motivating Games.  What’s nice about this instructional is that it serves as a communication tool + problem solver :-P -  and its exercises are quick (this keeps players from getting bored !)

Blog Monetization: What You Should Do First


Hello beginners to Wordpress..    

I created a video, with the breakdown of what a newcomer to Wordpress should do first (Step by step coverage of blog development).

There are 8 key steps covered, and the Final Step you take is the monetization of your blog.  It is very important to leave that until the end.

Dont be in a rush.  

You want to develop your blog readership, and offer plenty of things of value so that you'll BUILD up a loyal readership..

You can offer free ebooks, links to valuable blogs within your niche, and podcasts to enrich your audience. If you create a video (and you should), script it first; write it out and include bullet points 
so you'll hit the highlights and won't sound like you're just talking from a script.

Also, before you begin speaking - have a SMILE on your face.   Your video will come across much better that way.
