What Makes the Economy Go Round...or Crash

A New Perspective to Business brought about a very interesting point and theme of attention being the most vital part of the economy and I tend to agree.  With the overload of information available to us, it is almost impossible for an individual to decide what is worthy and pay attention to what needs to be consumed.  

As  a leader of a business, one must pay attention to detail and focus on the markets and their employees.  In my foundations management class we are talking about how effective managers personalize themselves with their employees and get to know each employees strengths and weaknesses and utilize those to the greater purpose of the business.    

I was blown away that a Sunday edition of The New York Times contains more information than all written material to a person in the fifteenth century.  We are spoiled and therefore we take advantage of the overload of information and do not take notice.  

I know at  my job at the Recreational Sports Center on campus, I like it when my boss takes notice of me and takes notice of what I have done.  It is vital to survival in the business world and hopefully we slow down enough to pay attention and fix what we see is wrong and praise what is right.
