How critical is the understanding of the people involved in the technology? The people involved in the creating of, producing of, marketing of, and support of the technology, most would agree, are critical to that technology’s success. Significant issues include powerful communication, managing and leading others, collaborating in partnerships and teams, mediating misunderstandings, and accelerating the growth and development of yourself and the people you work with. Every technology is ultimately built by people, and the success of the technology depends in part on the success of the people factors involved.
In "Resilience Tips", Dr. Carolyn Tal combines her training and experience as a psychologist, mediator, coach, and consultant in the practical application of Resilience concepts. Resilience is a growing area of research and practice for coping with and recovering from adversity, and is based on decades of research in related fields - particularly cognitive and positive psychology.

Site for Israel's professional tech writing and marcom community. Originally based in what has become Israel's 2nd largest R&D center (Yokneam), Elephant brings together technical and marcom writers from all over Israel. Behind the scenes and between meetings, members stay in contact with job offers and leads, joint projects, and professional assistance.
Using the wrong technical writer is like using a wrench to open a door, it works, but a door knob is better and cheaper. Elephant was started to help match writers and copy editors with companies where their skills match company needs.
