Why I Decided to Change Careers
If you asked me a year ago if I still enjoyed my current job, I would have told you "NO." For the past eight years (since April 2011), I have been an Early Childhood Educator. Since starting my career as an ECE, I have worked in three different centres. The first one was in a big centre inside of a school, the second one started out in basement suites and eventually moved into a residential commercial space. My last daycare was in a house where I worked mostly by myself.

Review: This Is How It Always Is
REVIEW: This Is How It Always Is by Laurel Frankel This is a stunning novel by Laurie Frankel, depicting the transition of the youngest in a family of five children, from Claude to Poppy. While this book is fiction, it is loosely inspired by the author’s own life; her own child made the same transition at a young age. This personal inspiration bleeds into the storytelling, the novel feeling consistently real and raw throughout. The detailed capturing of a child struggling with their identity, and how this impacts the rest of the family, is both a guttural and beautiful read. Frankel does not shy away from the controversial or complicated elements of the issues at hand, the brutal honesty of the family’s battle with a society lagging behind the children it is raising shining through in moments of pain, betrayal, and above all, strength.

Sales Management and Trends
Today the world is changing at such a rapid pace with continuous growth in the world of technology. There has been a huge disruption from where we were just 10 years ago. Most of my focus will be on digital marketing for the fact of Neil Rackham would be right by saying some of the sales force employees, managers, etc. would benefit more from outsourcing functions in the company. As we read in Cracking the Sales Code we find that the importance of time management and focus on metrics that can be controlled is of the most importance. Another statement that I would like to address is the point of him saying sales quantifies more revenue than marketing. To combat that, there are multiple levels of channels that need focusing. In certain industries, I can see that to be true, but to think that is in all industries, I don’t know if I would agree in the emerging markets with technology.
