Tabletop Easel – Excellent For Art Classes Or Presentations

A tabletop easel is the perfect companion to a business presentation for a stockholders meeting in which the state of the economy is going to be discussed and graphs and charts would help convey the magnitude of the problems the company may be facing or the importance of the solutions the presenter has arisen at and is now wanting to convey to the board of directors. Visuals are important and when everyone is sitting down, including the presenter and the information is also at a level with the audience then people are more receptive to it.

Art classes, for both young and older students would benefit from a tabletop easel to hold their drawing paper. Art classes are typically longer than an hour and no one wants to stand that long when they are creating something unique.Children may need to stand in order to reach the very top of the easel, however for the most part a table top easel works for them as well.

Effectively Reduce the Use of Authority When Negotiating

When you negotiate, to what ‘authority’ do you succumb? When we negotiate, information is presented to enhance or demur the perception of authority. At times, we are told information being conveyed came from some form of authority. Thus, the projection of that information is supposed to possess validity and impress us. When such information is presented to you, dressed in the trappings of authority, if the information doesn’t appear to be valid, or you have a ‘gut’ feeling that it doesn’t reside well with you, question its validity.

It appears that Michael Jackson, bless his soul, relied upon an authority to address his concerns of well being. In the end, it appears that authority misguided him.

Another problem that occurs with information, coming from the quarters of authority, is the fact that some people will view it as being suspect, when in reality, it’s valid. As an example, had Michael Jackson not passed away, but instead was rushed to the hospital and the public was told he was hospitalized due to some undisclosed illness, or whatever the reason his ‘handlers’ felt would serve Michael’s interest, some people would have sought something more sinister behind the message. They would have questioned the motives of those presenting the information and possibly thought it was a publicity stunt to highlight his pending tour. They might have even thought it was some form of disguise to solicit empathy for Michael. Those possessing such thoughts might have justified their beliefs based on what they may have considered to be, ‘the strange behavior’ that Michael displayed in the past.

The point is, when you’re negotiating, don’t always rely on information to be factual, in the form in which it’s presented, and don’t be too quick to discount its validity. You should always mentally question, the motives of the other negotiator, what it is that he’s attempting to do, and what he seeks as an outcome. By doing so, you’ll get insight into how he wishes you to perceive the information being presented and you’ll be able to reconcile how you’re perceiving the data against that backdrop.

When negotiating, use all of your senses. Observe the manner by which the other negotiator is presenting. Look for signs through his body language that indicates dissimilarities between his words and body gestures. Pay attention to his pitch and tone when he’s speaking. Once you note variations in his speech from that of earlier parts of the conversation, mentally note those differences and follow the lead of his body. The body never lies. It will project the truth much clearer and assuredly than the spoken word. Once you’re able to discern fact from fiction at the negotiation table, you’ll start winning more negotiation sessions. You’ll become a savvy negotiator that will walk away from the negotiation with more of what was on the table… and everything will be right with the world.

The Negotiation Tips Are…

• As we negotiate, there are times when we intuitively don’t trust what we hear or see. When that occurs, question why you’re experiencing such feelings. There will be reasons behind such emotions.
• In order to become a more experienced negotiator, commit to gaining insight into the subtle nuances of body language. There’s a hidden world of secret information in the gestures of someone’s body maneuvers.
• If you are astute and don’t allow your position to be swayed by the misrepresentation of information coming from ‘authority’, you’ll be very well positioned to point the negotiation in an advantageous direction.

How Light Up T Shirts Make The Best 21st Birthday Present

A person’s 21st birthday is one of the most important ones in their lives. It is the time that they are officially considered an adult and can finally go to bars to hang out with their friends. Because the 21st birthday takes place during college for most people, it is important to find a present that is affordable but fun at the same time. That is why light up t shirts are a great option for a friend’s 21st.

Stylish

When someone goes out for their birthday they want to look great and that is just one of the ways that light up t shirts can help. These shirts are incredibly stylish and eye-catching with their solid colors and colorful flashing lights. Anyone who has one of these shirts is part of a growing fashion trend and their outfit will be noticed and complimented. Because the shirt looks so nice, the birthday person can even wear it for other celebrations later on.

People Know

Most people like to feel as if they are the center of attention on their birthdays and if your friend is one of those people, then light up t shirts are definitely a great option. Because of their stylishness and bright lights, your friend will be sure to stand out on their birthday. Of course, if the shirt mentions the fact that it’s their birthday, everyone in the bar will notice and they may even get sung to.

Match The Music

Some people are concerned about whether the flashing lights on t shirts will be distracting when at bars but they can actually add a lot to the ambience. That is because some of the shirts are designed so that their flashes will echo the beat of the music playing in the background. In an environment like a bar or club there will be no problem with the sensors making out the beat and flashing appropriately.

Comfort All Night

One of the final reasons that anyone would be glad to get a light up shirt on their 21st birthday is because of the comfort involved. People tend to try to look their best on their birthday and sometimes this means being uncomfortable. But light up shirts are not only stylish, but they are incredibly comfortable as well. They fit like a normal t shirt and the lighting element doesn’t heat up to the touch, meaning there is no risk of burns or irritation. Even better, they are comfortable enough to wear all night depending on how late you stay up celebrating.
