To meet or not to meet
I’m evaluating attending a conference for business purposes and I’m looking for some clarity around my reasons for doing so – so I’m writing about it!

Beyond the Bullet Points
What goes Role, Responsibility, Result and is where most English-readers come into contact with accent marks? If you said resume, résumé or resumé then you and I are on the same page.
