3 Ways to (Nicely) Handle a Bad Idea
3 Ways to (Nicely) Handle a Bad Idea3 Ways to (Nicely) Handle a Bad IdeaTheres nothing better than when someone on your team comes up with a great idea. But unfortunately, we cant all have strokes of genius all the time- and eventually, some duds are guaranteed to make their way to the amtsstube whiteboard or Monday morning meeting.While it may seem obvious to you when a suggestion should be sent directly to the circular file, its not necessarily quite so clear to the person sharing it. But, when youre managing a project or a team, you cant always just say that. How you respond to lousy ideas can have a significant impact on peoples future performance, not to mention morale and general office harmony.Fortunately, there are a few tips Ive found useful when youre handed a disaster of an idea to avoid shattering your colleagues self esteem- and maybe even yield better ideas in the process.1. Ask For ClarificationSometimes, the best way to get an idea that just isnt workable off the tabl e is to highlight its flaws. If youre given a particularly legless proposal, ask your colleague to explain in more detail how she would address the areas where you feel the plan is lacking.Heres a fictional example (although I actually kind of love this idea) Lets say a colleague suggests that everyone in the office should be mandated to eat bacon for breakfast every day as a way of ensuring the team has enough protein and wont be hungry at 10 AM. But you know several employees that have heart conditions, not to mention some vegans, and a few individuals that dont eat pork for religious reasons. Sadly, bacon just isnt going to work.But rather than simply blurting out that her idea is ridiculous, you could ask her to provide more detail, letting her share how she would address all those in the office who have dietary restrictions.When you ask someone to think through the holes in her proposal, she may come to the realization herself that her idea might need some work, and gracefully withdraw it to do a bit more research.2. Pretend Its Your Only OptionThis is a tougher approach, but it also has the potential to transform a crummy idea into a great one Before making a judgment on an idea, try to see if you can make it work.Why? When were forced to accept a certain outcome, we naturally switch to problem-solving mode, which often leads to some pretty creative solutions. Plus, inspiration comes from all kinds of different places, so chances are, somewhere in that lousy idea, theres some nugget of a good idea just waiting to be found.Considering the idea from above, pretend that the bacon solution is your only option. How can you make bacon work? Turkey bacon? Vegan bacon? Offering a variety of other protein-packed breakfast choices for your employees?By switching gears a bit, and talking through how to make a bad idea work, you just might find that a great idea develops. And if not, your colleague will at least know you made a real attempt to collaborate and develo p her idea, rather than just shooting it down from the start.3. Put Yourself In Her ShoesOf course, there are some ideas that youll just have to veto. In this case, one of the most important reminders I give myself before handing out feedback is to consider how the other person might feel when receiving it. Try remembering how you felt when someone shot down one of your ideas- you can probably think of a few ways the bearer of bad news couldve delivered the message with a little less sting, right?Phrase your comments in a way that will take into consideration any sensitivities your colleague may have (e.g., did you reject the last four ideas shes had on this topic already?), and deliver your message with empathy.By taking into account how she might hear your feedback, your message will likely be much better received.That said, dont sugar coat it- you dont want her to feel youre giving any special treatment. My tried and true method is to start by identifying the merits of the idea f irst, then point out where it needs work, taking care to be constructive, not critical. brde but not least, always close with a positive word- you want her to keep tryingThe best way to generate great ideas is to cultivate an environment in which everyone feels like his or her ideas have a fair shake. Not every idea will be the next best thing, but follow these steps, and youll ensure your colleagues keep trying. And who knows? You just might find that diamond in the rough in the processPhoto of signs courtesy ofShutterstock.

11 Attacks
11 AttacksHow News Coverage Has Changed Since the 9/11 AttacksOn Sept. 11, 2001, it didnt matter if you were anchorman Tom Brokaw of NBC News or a rookie reporter at a small town nachrichtenpaper, you were faced with a crisis you never before experienced or could have imagined. The decisions that were made in newsrooms across the country have left a lasting change in how the news media covers storiesto this day. Sensitivity in Reporting The attacks needed no hyperbole, no creative writing to make them appear worse than they already were. In the days after the attacks, David Westin, the president of ABC News, ordered that video of the jets hitting the World Trade Center in New York City bedrngnis be repeated over and over so as not to disturb viewers, especially children. That was a landmark decision, considering how many times Americans had been exposed to video of the Space Shuttle Challenger explosion and the assassination of Pres. John F. Kennedy. Before then, if you had good video, you usually exploited it. Today, news organizations are re-examining coverage of violent stories, such as mass shootings. Some are deciding that even when a video is available, it is too graphic to put on TV. Technology Highlights Personal Stories In the years since 9/11, smartphones with video recording capabilities and the ability to immediately upload footage to the internet have become ubiquitous. Cell phones can snap photos and record videos and post them online. In the rush to get the story on the air, news managers have to decide how to use this form of communication. A key question is whether to use only the images that were sent directly to the media outlet or to use whatever you can find on the Internet without regard to privacy or ownership. The same is true for posts on Twitter or Facebook, which didnt exist in 2001. A media company needs to establish a social media policy about how to use these tools. Visible Patriotism Remember the U.S. flag pins that po liticians and newscasters began wearing shortly after the attacks? At first, they were seen as a sign that America would stand strong. Before long, critics said they were being used to show political support for the policies of President Bush. Reporters with news organizations that would never take a political stance were faced with a dilemma- keeping the pins on may make it appear that the journalist was supporting a political agenda. Taking them off could look un-American. ABC was one organization with a policy that specifically stated the pins and other symbols could not be worn. The pin flap has faded, but the patriotism battle continues over a cable TV channel. Al Jazeera English (AJE) presents reports from a Middle East perspective, offering Americans a look at how people in another part of the world views us. Even ten years after 9/11, cable TV companies reportedly worried about a backlash if they offered the channel, even though AJE has won a Columbia Journalism Award. Cu ltural Differences Divide Once the nation saw the faces and read the names of the 9/11 suspects, it became easy to target people of Middle Eastern ancestry or Islamic belief as possible terrorists. News organizations chose to actively fight that stereotyping or saw an opportunity to pander to it. Fox News Channel has been accused of playing to Americans fears of Muslims. Others in media are criticized for assuming that all terrorist acts since 9/11 are committed by Muslim extremists, then acting surprised when the suspects in some violent acts, like the 2011 attack in Norway, turn out to be white and Christian. Other media outlets have taken a different approach, seeking Muslims in their own communities to interview about their faith and rituals. Coverage of a threatened Islamic Jihad is replaced with stories explaining Ramadan, a holy month. Possible New Threats Bomb threats and mysterious white powder discoveries have become a part of U.S. society since 9/11. News managers of ten struggle as they decide whether rumors of a possible violent act are newsworthy or just feed into fear. For years, a bomb threat at a neighborhood school was dismissed as the work of pranksters and ignored. bedrngnis anymore. Now they are often reported if arrests are made, even if the suspects are just mischievous teenagers. White powder will bring out the news crews to this day, even though most discoveries turn out to be harmless, like the dust found in Chicago or the instant soup uncovered in New York. Still, the coverage shows that reporters have conditioned themselves to treat every situation as serious. In the years since the attacks, journalists have a delicate balancing act. Cover every development as a breathless alert and be accused of sensationalism. Downplay threats and be blasted for putting lives in jeopardy. News managers find themselves making the same judgment calls as politicians and law enforcement experts. But all these groups now have the wisdom that comes from witnessing and surviving 9/11.

The Pros and Cons of the Independent Contractor W2 or 1099
The Pros and Cons of the Independent Contractor W2 or 1099The Pros and Cons of the Independent Contractor W2 or 1099Most of us will spend our careers in positions with traditional compensation methods. Salaried or hourly employees know all about punching the clock, filling out that time card and receiving those weekly paychecks with a stack of deductions for Uncle Sam. While traditional employee positions are certainly the most common work arrangement, there may be an alternative way to bring home the dough without all the administrative red tape up front.Freelance or independent contractor work is a typical arrangement in a variety of career paths. In writing, some trades positions and a variety of service sectors its more common than not to run across positions that throw out the traditional W2. While rules regarding what types of positions can qualify for this status vary from state to state, the distinction between employee and independent contractor when it comes to job duties a nd performance usually boils down to control and tools. Independent contractors set their own hours and terms for performing labor and will supply most if not all of the equipment needed for the position. This work freedom is appealing to many but comes with some drawbacks and certain complicating factors as well. From taxes to benefits, here we break down the pros and cons of accepting a position in which youre classified as an independent contractor.The Bad of 1099sPulling off the proverbial band-aid, first, lets titel the downsides to accepting a position as a 1099 worker or independent contractor. As an independent contractor what you make on the job is the same amount that comes home with you at the end of the day. There are no taxes withheld from your pay, which creates the appearance that youre making out ahead. If your mom ever told you there wasnt such a thing as a free lunch, she was doubly right when it comes to independent contracts and taxes. Taxes are still owed on the entire amount you earn as a 1099er, theyre simply paid at the end of the year when you file your annual taxes. In addition, employers typically have to pay a portion of ansicht items, such as social security and medicare, but as an independent contractor, youre responsible for this portion as well meaning youll end up with a higher overall taxed percentage of your take home pay.There are other downsides in addition to the double taxation whammy. Paid vacation is non-existent and employer funded medical insurance instead becomes self-funded. If theres a dispute over pay, youre on your own for following up with the client, often in terms of an escalating series of demand letters or eventually a day in court. When it comes to job stability, absent some other provision your client can terminate the contract at any time. Typical protections afforded employees regarding the valid cause for firing are completely out the window and maintaining a regular work schedule is often difficult as you are left to accommodate the needs of your individual clients.The Upside to 1099In case you think its all doom and gloom, there are plenty of upsides to being classified as an independent contractor. Fewer costs associated with utilizing 1099 work means that these workers can often command higher prices for similar skills or tasks. While you may not have set working hours, you often have greater flexibility for making your own schedule. If youre motivated and able to create your own personal structure, the freedom of working independently may be just the thing for you.There are also some tax benefits to help offset the previously mentioned downsides. Independent contracts may be able to deduct costs associated with their jobs that typical employees wouldnt be able to. This includes tools, supplies, and gas or mileage for transportation to and from the worksite. If you work from home, you may also be able to deduct a portion of your mortgage or rent as well as utilities as a home office expense. Finally, as a 1099 worker, you may have access to additional retirement account options such as SEP-IRAs which allow you to stash away more of your money for retirement, tax-free.What About EmployersIt isnt only workers that need to weigh the benefits and drawbacks of 1099 status. Employers should also be aware of how hiring an independent contractor affects their bottom line. For starters,tax withholding is non-existent simplifying paperwork and eliminating the need to pay employee taxes. In addition, if you hire an independent contractor you generally arent liable for their actions like you would be for an employee, which can be handy in the event something goes wrong over the course of the job.On the other hand, hiring someone as 1099 often means you can exercise less control over the final work product, which can be challenging if you have strict company policies youd like your group to adhere to. Firing an employee for cause is generally a pretty painless action but terminating a contract of an independent contractor early could mean a day in court to sort out whether you were justified. Flexibility on hours is also a must when working with an independent contractor.The 1099 Bottom LineWhether youre looking to hire a 1099 worker or are considering picking up independent contractor work, enter into any agreement with your eyes wide open. There are definite upsides and drawbacks and deciding on this method as a form of employment will typically come down to how flexible you are or would like to be in your profession. If you have a desire to step outside of the traditional employer/employee mold, an independent contractor arrangement may be just the solution for you.
