The Women Negotiation Institute Presents the First of its Kind Negotiation Training for Women

Negotiating in a Man’s World without Compromising Your Values Essential Negotiating Skills 3-Day Training For Women Coming to Southern California this Summer

Los Angeles, CA, June 02, 2011 - The Women Negotiation Institutes (www.womennegotiationinstitute.com) presents the first of its kind negotiation training for women. Through the use of role-playing simulations, discussion, video-recording, and individualized coaching, this negotiation training will provide women with the psychological strength to not only ask for what they want but feel great in doing so. The Institute’s two-part program is embedded in the belief that negotiation is 80% Psychology and 20% Mechanics. The Institute’s two main objectives are: 1) To empower women to ask for what they want; and 2) To develop the skills, strategies and techniques needed to request what they want from any party.

The program concentrates on the four cornerstones of transforming negotiation behavior for women. Part One is designed to help women change the limiting beliefs that inhibit their ability to effectively negotiate. Part Two is designed to guide the women through the process of understanding the other party’s needs, wants, and anticipated negotiation behaviors. Part Three is divided into three important learning chapters: 1) A step-by-step guide to pre-planning a negotiation experience; 2) The different processes involved in a negotiation; and, 3) The follow-up process after a negotiation is completed. Finally, Part Four is designed to teach the women how to understand the tactical aspect of negotiation. This part will help women to identify, understand and protect themselves from negotiation tactics that they will ultimately encounter.

The trainings are fashioned as interesting, thought-provoking and entertaining events that also serve to educate women about the inner powers that can be used in skillful and successful negotiation strategies. The basis of the trainings was developed due to Dr. Yasmin Davidds groundbreaking study, which was performed during her tenure as an international negotiations leader for KARRASS, a leading global negotiations training firm. Dr. Davidds interviewed 700 women from 22 countries who had recently completed (within the last 6 months) a top negotiation training program. The findings of the study were startling. While the 700 women in the study all possessed a learned set of negotiation skills from top negotiation programs, less than 40% of the women were actually utilizing these skills in their everyday negotiations-compared to 98% of their male counterparts. The study revealed that women were "turned off" by the behavior associated with many traditional negotiation m ethods. This aversion acted as a catalyst for the women to emotionally shut down from ALL negotiation activities.

The 3-Day Women Negotiation Skills Training is destined to become an effective tool that women can use in all of their future negotiations. Coming to Southern California in three exclusive events. To register visit www.womennegotiationinstitute.com. Following is the schedule for the trainings:

USC
(University of Southern California)
July 22, 23, 24 UCLA

(University of California Los Angeles)
August 19, 20, 21 UC Irvine

(University of California Irvine)
September 23, 24, 25

Dr. Yasmin Davidds is an international bestselling author, women's empowerment and negotiation specialist and an expert in the world-renowned KARRASS negotiation program. As one of the top leading female negotiation experts in the U.S. and Latin America, Yasmin has trained and consulted thousands of corporate leaders in over 200 blue chip companies throughout 22 countries in the art and skill of negotiation.

Queensland Company Leads Green Revolution

The viability of renewable energy production has gained a significant boost from a world-first technology developed by an innovative Australian company.

Bundall, Qld, June 02, 2011 - PolyGenomX, based on the Gold Coast, has pioneered a range ofprocesses that deliver faster growth and higher yields fromplants vital to a range of commercial applications and sustainable industries.

The company’s ability to rapidly propagate fast-growing, robust and climate-tough trees and vegetation is a game-changer for the mass production of bio-fuels and feedstocks, says PolyGenomX managing director Peter Rowe.

"PolyGenomX has developed technology that allows us to activate dormant parts of a plant’s DNA without genetically modifying it in any way.

"This provides the ability to turbocharge certain characteristics naturally existing within a plant such as rapid growth properties and predispositionsto thrive in various environments and soils.

"One example is Jatropha which is already an ideal crop for biodiesel generation as it is inedible, will grow on marginal land, takes little care and yields high quality oil from its seeds.

"We have taken this plant and developed a new PolyGenomXvariety thathas been shown to produce 30 percent larger fruit.

"The fruit and also seeds are considerably larger resulting in more oil for biofuel production which will have widespread implications for one of the fastest growing renewable energy sources.

'Bio-fuel is an efficient and clean energy source to power diesel engines however wide-spread use to date has been limited due to high costs from production using soybean, corn and sugar cane."

One of the other areas where PolyGenomX technology can be utilised iscarbon capture and storage through the rapid regeneration of areas cleared by forestry.

Fast growing plants that can be adapted to various environments are also ideal for soil and water remediation in areas with high salinity, intensive farmingor mining including the extraction of coal seam gas deposits.

Mr Rowe says these applications along with renewable energy production give the technology an opportunity to play a key role in improving environmental outcomes and managing climate change.

"This technology can be adapted to a range of commercially produced crops including those used in renewable energy production and pulping through to construction and fine timbersuch as sandalwood.

"Given that our plants grow faster and yield more than any comparable stock we are able to offer a significantcompetitive advantage for our partners."

PolyGenomX will license the superior strains of plants developed to ethical producers, farmers and other partners involved in the production of commercial crops and environmental restoration.

Connie Podesta Wins Gold Medal Award With 10 Ways to Stand Out From the Crowd

Top organizations seek real-world answers and strategic solutions to stay competitive in a constantly changing market. They're finding all of that and more in Connie Podesta's new book, 10 Ways to Stand Out From the Crowd. And the folks at Independent Publisher Book Awards agree.

Dallas, TX, May 18, 2011 (Straight Line PR) -- Connie Podesta and co-author Jean Gatz proudly announce the selection of their new book, 10 Ways to Stand Out From the Crowd as the 2011 Independent Publisher Book Awards Gold Medal Award winner in the Business Category.

"It's a thrill to be chosen from among the more than 2000 participants for this prestigious award," says author, keynote speaker and change expert Connie Podesta. "We wanted to create a book that was different from any other business book we've seen. Something that would compel people to make positive changes in their lives, careers and companies."

Connie Podesta ( http://ConniePodesta.com/speakingtraining ) has helped organizations globally implement the kind of innovative and effective strategies, tools and mindsets that allow their companies to grow. She teaches them to do that in such a way that their employees and partners become happy contributors and pro-active solution-seekers.

"Connie and Jean have hit a home run with a book that lives up to its name and stands out from the crowd. From the very first page, I knew I was about to experience a wealth of content wrapped in the kind of creativity you rarely see in a business book," says Diane Koziol Krueger, brand identity expert, CEO and Founder of Contagious, LLC.

10 Ways to Stand Out From the Crowd ( http://ConniePodesta.com/stand-out-from-the-crowd ) takes the most critical elements of success - change, leadership, relationships and attitudes. Then breaks them down into ten individual books rolled into one. Written in an easy-to-read, easy-to-reference style, there is no mistaking why the straight-forward communication and spotlighted (not-to-mention Tweet-ready!) "pearls" of wisdom are a success formula for leaders, executives and entrepreneurs. They're also powerful for anyone who wishes to STAND OUT from the crowd. It provides people with the skills to live more fully and create more of that all-too-elusive balance between personal, professional and family life.

"I often say 'Business as usual is OVER', because our world is changing and evolving so fast that those who want to compete, perform better, produce more and sustain far better relationships in their lives have got to start doing some things differently," shares Connie. "Waiting for 'someday' or 'one of these days' is simply not an option anymore. That's why we wrote a book that really helps people turn on those light bulbs in their minds. They begin to not just SEE that change is possible, but BELIEVE it and then ACT in the ways it takes to make those changes a reality."

For anyone who's ever asked themselves...

* Do I have the skills, talent, attitude, knowledge and commitment ENOUGH to make it in today's competitive world?

* Am I making the right CHOICES for myself, my career and my family?

* Am I COMMUNICATING well or just making noise?

* Am I doing what it takes to DIFFERENTIATE myself in a such a positive way that my employers, co-workers, partners, family and friends CHOOSE to have me in their lives?

* How can I handle the DIFFICULT people in my life that make work and home so challenging?

* What can I do DIFFERENTLY that will help me attract the success, people and wealth I want?

10 Ways to Stand Out From the Crowd ( http://amzn.to/10WaysStandOut ) delivers fresh ideas, laugh-out-loud 'light bulb' moments, and real-life strategies that will not only have readers STANDING OUT in a positive way, but enjoying more of the moments along the way.

Visitor Registration. WIP has all features for an anonymous web visitor to enter their information in a form and automatically become registered in the AuraPortal Platform. For example, mechanisms for verifying the authenticity of the email provided are fully automated and also that it is not being used for another registrant, the automatic creation of the visitors as a Contact in your Account table, and the sending of an email with registration data once it is captured, among others.

Use of the Platform. Once a web visitor is registered, the user will be able to enter in their private WIP site to see restricted information, to start processes, to view the status of the process they have begun, to receive and manage tasks, to see emails received from AuraPortal and change their registration data.

From WIP, external users can ask questions or notifications, queries, etc. that can be answered by email. Also they can start and execute Process Tasks. WIP itself automatically starts the processes designed for each issue, thus achieving excellence in the service along with the optimization of resources. And all this can be done through the Website, Email, Mobile, etc.
