How to Deal with a High School Coach Who Dismisses Your Child’s Potential

It’s a tough moment for any parent: you believe in your child’s abilities, you see their dedication, and you watch them give their all at practices and games—yet their high school coach doesn’t seem to share your view. Worse, when you approach the coach to seek clarity or feedback, he responds with generic clichés like “He just needs to work harder” or “It’s all about the team, not the individual.” These hollow talking points offer no insight into what your child can actually do to improve or how they’re truly being evaluated. So what can you do to navigate this challenging situation while keeping your child’s confidence and love for the game intact? 1. Keep Perspective: Recognize the Limitations of High School Coaching High school coaches often juggle teaching responsibilities, large rosters, and administrative tasks, leaving limited time for individualized attention. Some are deeply invested mentors, but others may rely on one-size-fits-all coaching approaches, and others may have th...

How to maintain privacy and data security with a managed offshore office and staffing solution?

 

American and international building contractors alike have legitimate concerns over privacy and data security, especially in the government and high technology space where clients often require contractors to sign Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDA), making the sharing of drawings to third party outsourcing vendors difficult or time and cost prohibitive.

But, during the CV19 era, contractors had to grapple with and find acceptable solutions for managing client NDA requirements in regard to their back-office workforce which went from being office workers to remote workers overnight, and that raised privacy and data security challenges.

These challenges were quickly overcome thanks to the basic information technologies that are available today, such as e-mail, online file sharing platforms, such as OneDrive or Google Drive, and online video conferencing platforms such as Zoom, Teams or Skype, which are all easy to deploy and use, and are encrypted and password protected.

As a result, remote work for these employees quickly became the norm and will remain the norm for many of these employees after CV19 fears fade away. Remote work, if properly managed, can benefit both the company and the employee, as the company may not require as much office space or furniture and may be able to reduce operating expenses, while the employee can save time and money by working from home and only going into the office for occasional meetings.

So, why not take this concept international, and utilize the same basic information technologies to ensure privacy and data security, and provide American contractors with access to educated and qualified remote staff in a low labor cost market on a full-time and exclusive basis?

Contractors can provide their overseas remote staff with access to their own e-mail system and online file sharing or ERP systems, same as they would with their own remote staff in the United States. And, by working with the right managed office and staffing solution partner, the remote overseas staff do, in fact, work directly and exclusively for the contractor, so they can sign NDA’s in the same way that their local remote staff can, without any additional time, cost or documentary burdens that may be placed on the hiring of a third party outsourcing vendor.

The right managed office and staffing solution will solve these privacy and data security concerns for American contractors.
