			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="TCA Coach Mary Kralj" href="http://www.thecoachingassociation.com/coach/mary_kralj/" target="_blank"><strong>TCA Executive Coach, Mary Kralj</strong> </a>found the following new free resource for our readers.</p>
<p>Mary recently attended a conference for I/O Psychologists where <a title="I/OatWork.com" href="http://ioatwork.typepad.com/" target="_blank"><strong>IOatWork.com</strong>,</a> a publication review site, was announced.</p>
<p>The site provides quick, easy-to-read reviews of recent I/O and consulting psych research from more than 20 journals, allowing you to stay up to date on the literature in a few minutes a week.  The site also sorts reviews by topic so you can peruse the reviews according to your projects, proposals, etc.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img title="The Coaching Association" src="../wp-content/uploads/150x150_thumbnail_default.jpg" alt="The Coaching Association" width="150" height="150" /><br />
MIT World™ is a fantastic, free, and informative website sponsored and maintained by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.  It is a database of more than 600 videos of from significant public events at MIT.  This is a free and open site with on demand videos that a coaching friend of mine pointed out to me and you can go there too.  The site is: <a title="MIT World website of videos" href="http://mitworld.mit.edu/" target="_blank">www.mitworld.mit.edu</a>.</p>
<p>For those of us in the executive coaching, leadership development, and business consulting realm, this is some wonderful and inspiring stuff!  The topical index for the site includes:</p>
<ul>
<li>Architecture/Planning</li>
<li>Arts</li>
<li>Biotechnology</li>
<li>Defense/Military</li>
<li>Economics</li>
<li>Education</li>
<li>Engineering</li>
<li>Environment/Energy</li>
<li>Exploration/Travel</li>
<li>History</li>
<li>Innovation/Invention</li>
<li>International Affairs</li>
<li>Business/Leadership</li>
<li>Media</li>
<li>Medicine</li>
<li>MIT</li>
<li>National Security</li>
<li>Public Policy</li>
<li>Science</li>
<li>Technology</li>
</ul>
<p>Browsing through the videos, I found several that caught my eye:</p>
<ul>
<li>Linda Mason, Chairman of the 1.3 billion dollar Bright Horizons enterprise talking about how she and her husband came to launch and build their business during a tough economic time.</li>
<li>Timothy Brown, from IDEO talking about &#8220;Innovation through Design Thinking&#8221;</li>
<li>&#8220;Innovation Leadership during Economic Crisis&#8221; by Emmanuel Maceda from Bain and Company</li>
</ul>
<p>What a rich resource of learning for coaches and their clients.  I also saw Thomas Friedman, Bill Gates, and Barack Obama on the list of recorded lectures and presentations.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s how the site describes itself and its mission:</p>
<p>&#8220;MIT World™ answers that question by publishing key presentations by the MIT faculty and guest speakers who are shaping the future. These free, on-demand videos, available 24/7 to viewers worldwide, reflect and extend MIT’s educational mission—to provide the best education in science, technology, and related fields—to engaged learners anytime, anywhere.</p>
<p>More a publication of thought leadership, and less a news site, MIT World aims to capture the pulse and excitement of the range of ideas discussed at MIT every day and share them with the world. A growing archive of more than 585 works offers insights on topics ranging from architecture to innovation to technology and sustainability. Cumulatively, these presentations by world-class thinkers and doers map great ideas in the making.&#8221;</p>
<p>So, when you need a little brain boost, check it out!</p>
