1. How Companies
Are Destroying Their Talent

It happens all the time: Someone gets hired. They're
excited. They
prepare to do their best, to give their best – because
they, like you,
want to be great. And then the tragedy begins. With shocking
efficiency the company shouts, "That's not how we do it here!" And
like a dog trained by a slapped nose the new hire acquiesces and
begins
to act like everyone else.
See if your company falls
into this talent trap:

The branding of your business identity will increase
public awareness of
your company. By being "brand aware", you will
provide a higher level of
consistency and continuity in your advertising and
marketing materials,
and you will become more memorable in prospective clients'
minds.
Set yourself apart from the crowd by creating
brand awareness:

National Taxpayer Advocate Report to Congress
National
Taxpayer Advocate Nina E. Olson today delivered a report to
Congress that
identifies the priority issues the Office of the Taxpayer
Advocate will address
in the coming fiscal year. Among the key areas
of focus will be improving
IRS procedures to protect victims of
tax-related identity theft and expanding
outreach and education to
individuals who have lost their homes to foreclosure
concerning the
“cancellation of debt” tax consequences they face.
