Sitting Pretty
Next time you book a business flight, get the
best seat on the plane. At www.seatguru.com
you can find seat maps by simply choosing the
airline and type of aircraft you’re flying. Move
your cursor over an image of the plane, and seat
descriptions appear. The site lets you identify
seats with the most (or least) legroom, seats
that fully recline (or don’t), seats in the
quietest (or noisiest) sections of the plane and
other amenities. Best of all, the search for the
most comfy seat is free.
Think Again
If your business brain is stuck in
neutral, get your creative thinking
jump-started with Roger von Oech’s book
A Whack On The Side of the Head: How You Can
Be More Creative (Warner Business, 1998).
This classic helps you unlock mental blocks
with puzzles, exercises, anecdotes,
illustrations and quotations. The author is a
creativity consultant, and his book offers a
fun, stimulating read. You’ll be entertained
while you learn new ways to solve problems and
uncover unexpected answers.
