Taking Small Steps to Make a Real Impact in Your Workplace
Whether we like it or not, we spend a lot of our time at work. In fact, according to at least one estimate from Gettysburg College, the average person spends 90,000 hours at work over their lifetime – which is about a third of your life. So it’s understandable to want to make sure that time is well spent. When you’re not making the most of your work time — and not seeing much in the way of positive changes as a result — that can be really disheartening to continue participating in over many weeks, months, and years of your career. So what are some things you can do…
A Building of One’s Own: Extraordinary Liquidity Leads to Big Property Investments by Corporations
When Alphabet, the parent company of online juggernaut Google, recently agreed to pay $2.4 billion to acquire Chelsea Market in lower Manhattan, it was an eye-popping number for even a goliath like Google to spend on increasing its corporate footprint. Reasons for such an outlay abound. Corporate prestige, for one: As Amazon teases cities all over North America with the prospect of its second headquarters, tantalizing with as many as 50,000 high-paying jobs, Google has sent a clear signal that the sophisticated, worldly urbanity of Manhattan is as on-brand for the company as it gets. Despite its many billions, though, there’s practical purpose underlying Alphabet’s growing Manhattan footprint. And Google…
For Estate Lawyers Like Konrad Malik, Including Online Assets Increasingly Significant

Tech In Toronto: City’s Technology Community Expected to Enjoy Continued Growth
Often, when people think of technology — and innovation in the field of technology — they think of Silicon Valley.

Surprisingly Few Capitalize on IIoT Potential – the Time to Act Is Now
For all the potential of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) to reshape business as we know it, a troubling proportion of today’s business leaders have not yet seized the day, a new study finds.

The IIoT, meanwhile, is how this technology applies to non-consumer applications – for things like quality control, sustainability and supply chain efficiency. By 2020, according to projections by…

Building a Real Estate Practice: How to Make It Financially Between Commissions
You’re running your own real estate business. The sort of freedom that comes with being your own boss can be very exciting, but the financial challenges involved can be stressful too. For realtors, one of the challenging aspects of maintaining a successful independent real estate practice is the waiting period between when a real estate deal is completed and when a realtor actually gets their commission for the sale. This period is sometimes very long, which can put a real strain on finances, or even slow down other parts of a real estate business, since cash flow that has stalled can put everything else on hold. But, if you are…

Drones: Meet the Hardworking Robots of the Sky
Whether it’s lighting up the night sky above the Houston NRG stadium at this year’s Super Bowl or shooting rare video with a bird’s eye perspective, drones seem to be everywhere now. Unmanned aerial vehicles, or drones as they are more commonly referred to, were also one of the most coveted gifts this past holiday season.
