Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Rejection can be powerful.  The word "no" serves a special purpose in business and especially in entrepreneurship. Every founder and innovator has heard it, probably thousands of times. If approached with the right mindset, "no" can be a guiding force to propel a business forward. A "no" can help you improve your ideas, illuminate blind spots and even protect you from relationships and partnerships that would not have been good for you or your business. When I was younger, I wore my heart on my sleeve, which meant that any rejection was palpable to those around me. I was easily shaken by rejection, and as a result, I spent a lot of energy trying to change people's minds or prove to them wrong. I do not recommend this approach. Not only did it not work, but it also drained my energy. That other people's words could rattle me, control my feelings and shape my behavior was a problem....

When used right, social media is a highly valuable and profitable element in every multifamily marketer’s business strategy. But just posting photos with your listings, tweeting from time to time or sharing content is not enough. There are many dos when it comes to generating real estate leads and solidifying your community. And there are the don’ts—mistakes that cost you time, engagement and reach. Multi-Housing News identified some of the common social media mistakes multifamily businesses make, alongside some tips for avoiding these errors. Being too impersonal Sure, promoting your brand and listings is important. However, real value doesn’t come from sharing promotional content exclusively but from genuine interactions with your audience. Multifamily businesses struggle with coming off as too impersonal within the digital realm and renters are weary of businesses that publicize, rather than connect. In order to avoid this common mistake, try putting yourself into y...

As co-founder & CEO of uno.ai, Shashank leads a team of world-class engineers building an expert security analyst—not a tool for one! The only way cybersecurity teams can effectively and efficiently thwart threats, understand unfolding attacks and piece together possible data leaks is through ruthless prioritization. You heard it right. It's about doing fewer things well and getting deeper into it. Without a thorough understanding, chances of success are minimal, if any. How do you know what's important? As a cybersecurity leader, you're constantly looking at emerging threats, possible evidence of compromise or attack and a growing number of vulnerabilities. You have alerts and notifications popping up at you from multiple systems. You're tired, fatigued and mostly in nonstop firefighting mode. The alerts and notifications get you as far as a summarized view of some isolated data or evidence of possible anomalous activity. That leads to more investigation...

Online Learning The Future of Higher Education Is the Hybrid Campus Blending the best of face-to-face instruction with the flexibility of online learning can enhance the higher ed experience for all types of learners, lower the cost of a degree and better prepare students for the workforces + By Dr. Jeffrey R. Docking + 05/26/22 From the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, temporary changes were made across industries to adjust to our new, isolated reality. However, as we emerge from the pandemic, it is clear that many of these temporary changes will inevitably be the reality of the future. For higher ed, the wholesale shift to remote learning dramatically changed many of our institutions, including my own, almost overnight. While our industry is thrilled to see many elements of the traditional campus experience return to normal, online learning is likely to remain a facet of our models for the long term. If anything, the pandemic was merely the ember needed to change a model ...

Teaching and Learning 4 Online Tactics to Improve Blended Learning An accounting professor shares how best practices from online pedagogy have helped her create a blended learning environment that supports student success. + By Megan Burke, CPA, Ph.D. + 05/18/22 The pandemic forced students to shift to an online learning environment with little warning. Two years later, many students and teachers are suffering from videoconferencing fatigue. However, in my role as an accounting professor, I picked up a number of best practices from online learning that have been very effective in engaging students and helping prepare them for career success. Now that students are back in the classroom, I have been combining these tactics with in-person instruction to create a blended learning environment that gives my students the best of both worlds. 1) Create an Engaging Online Classroom The first step in creating an effective blended learning environment is designing an engaging onl...

Online training came to the forefront because of the pandemic. Every corporate company these days is making the best use of technology to offer online training to their employees. Although online training has been in the limelight for the past ten to fifteen years, it became more prominent since the pandemic outbreak because organizations had no other option. The shift from offline training to online training is not easy as the engagement is not so great, tracking parameters changes, and organizations don’t have a proper idea about the ROI in online training. However, thanks to tools like learning management systems, many companies have succeeded in transitioning from offline training to online training.  Unfortunately, there are still a lot of businesses that are still figuring out how they can successfully offer online training programs. Of all the issues, tracking the progress is one of the most pressing ones. Before we discuss the parameters through which you ca...

Every coach should have an online presence. But being a digital coach is not as easy as it seems. The biggest challenge a new digital coach faces is planning the curriculum. A curriculum should be set in a way that the students gain maximum knowledge, without a moment of dullness and at the same time stay connected. Within that connection, the concepts shared should be linked to one’s own experience to make the curriculum more profound. A coach should constantly keep their material and methods updated. The curriculum should be designed in a way that not only increases the completion rate but also provides certainty to the people signing up.  Research by Global Industry Analysts suggests that e-learning will be a $325 Billion industry by 2025. However, the industry average completion rate of e-learning courses can be as low as 5%. Nevertheless, I have cracked a methodology that has made my average completion rate 50%. With my experience, I recommend a six-step p...

To maintain his life and well-being, an individual must have at his disposal an adequate amount of consumer goods. These goods, however, are not readily available. Without tools at his disposal and by means of his bare hands, the individual can only obtain from nature very few goods for his survival. For instance, take an individual John, stranded in a forest. In order to stay alive, he can only pick up some apples from an apple tree. Apples are the only good available to him that can sustain him. Let us say that by working twenty hours a day, he manages to secure twenty apples, which keep him alive. The twenty apples that John has secured from nature is his subsistence fund, which sustains him (see also on this Rothbard)[1]. John realizes that if he had a special stick this would allow him to become more productive. His daily production of apples could be forty apples (i.e., double his current production). The problem, however, is that the stick is not available—it must be made. T...

Münster University psychologist Simon Breil researches into how much is revealed by non-verbal features such as gestures and facial expressions First impressions count: a smile on the lips, or dynamic gestures, have a positive effect on the way people’s personalities are judged. This is the conclusion which Dr. Simon Breil comes to in a study now published. Simon Breil is a research associate at the Institute of Psychology at the University of Münster. The meta-analysis undertaken looked at studies carried out over the past 40 years dealing with the connection between non-verbal cues and the perception of personalities. In this interview with Kathrin Nolte, Simon Breil describes the influence of body language and the overestimation of non-verbal cues, as well as revealing how applicants can present themselves favourably in job interviews. What influence does body language have on perceptions of other people? In general, we can say that body language has an enormous influence on...
