Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Paint the big picture. Give clear instructions. Make your True North statement your personal or business mantra. Participate in your vision.

Answer: Employees should understand how they, individually, contribute and are necessary to the larger goals of the company, not just in terms of how what they do benefits an increased profit return, but also how what they do matters in the larger world. Having clear guidelines and clarifying your expectations from the start is important for any collaborative or individual work. Showing employees how to do something versus telling them how can also clear up any initial questions. However, demonstrate trust by allowing employees to be in control of their own work. Allow them to determine how they can best complete the task at hand or to make modifications to the changes so that they can complete their work efficiently. This phrase should be repeated often. Your employees should know the True North statement and how it is important to their own projects and daily tasks. Be visible as someone contributing to the goals in everyday ways, rather than simply "overseeing" your employees. Actions speak louder than words! If your employees see you interacting with customers and responding to customer complaints, you are serving as a model for future behavior and reminding them through your actions that this goal is important to the overall success of your company. Although administrative work is a large part of managing a company, schedule regular intervals to step outside your office and help your employees with their tasks. If you run a retail business, for example, help out with stocking inventory, ask customers if you can help them find anything, or work the register.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Have the right attitude and poise. Be modest. Be helpful and kind. Walk like a dancer. Fairies are guardians of nature. Learn fairy vocabulary.

Answer: Attitude is everything, especially for fairies! Smile, especially when you meet people or make eye contact. Fairies are happy, sprightly, even mischievous creatures, always smiling and laughing. Fairies feel no need to boast, and they let their talents and charms speak for themselves. Fairies help those in need (like Cinderella's Fairy Godmother), so always be ready to help friends and family, be it with some hard work, a kind word, or advice and support. Fairies move lightly, and are graceful and delicate with their gestures. Practice walking with a book on your head and study dancers so that you can emulate their expressive hands and arms. Tend your gardens and potted plants well, and take good care of any pets you have. Be willing to feed stray animals and avoid killing bugs and spiders. Frequently used words include: Anha (love) Anhilna (beautiful) Danen (to sing) Elthen (friend) enkamenkam (forever on) Fey (fairy) Flien (to fly) Fodobrah (tomorrow) Hallae (hello) Hessen (yesterday) Lorinten (happiness) Lume (light) Mana (tree) Mina (flower) Niven (to dance) Shay (joy), or hanathen (gladness)

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Cash in after the mandatory 1-year period unless you've been affected by a disaster. Avoid penalties by waiting at least 5 years to cash in your bonds. Wait at least 20 years for the best investment on a paper bond. Cash in any EE savings bond that is older than 30 years old. Find out the interest rate of your EE savings bonds.

Answer: Whether you purchased the bond yourself or were given the bond as a gift, it normally cannot be redeemed until 1 year after its purchase. If you live in a federally-declared disaster area, the 1-year waiting period can be waived. If you are cashing in electronic bonds for disaster relief, simply write an email inside your TreasuryDirect account at https://www.treasurydirect.gov/ explaining the situation. If you've been affected by a disaster and are cashing in paper bonds, your bank should be able to waive the 1-year minimum holding fee if you live in a federally-declared disaster area. EE savings bonds were meant to be long-term investments. If you cash in your EE bond before it is 5 years old, you will lose the last 3 months of interest. Paper EE savings bonds double in value at the 20-year mark, meaning that if you want to get the best bang for your buck, wait until the bond has reached its 20-year maturity. Say you have a bond worth $100 and an interest rate of 0.20%. After 20 years, the bond reaches a maturity value of $200, even though the nominal value of the loan, given the interest rate, would normally be $105. After the adjustment, and until the loan hits 30 years old, it will earn a fixed interest rate. Regardless of the interest rate on your current EE savings bond, waiting 20 years before cashing in the paper bond will guarantee you an effective yield of about 3.5 percent. EE savings bonds only earn interest for 30 years. If you have a bond that is older than 30 years, it doesn't make much sense to keep it invested in an interest-less bond, so cash it in. Knowing the value of EE savings bonds will help you decide whether it's a good idea to cash in your bonds. Depending on the year issued, EE savings bonds have various interest rates. Bonds bought before May 1997 earn different interest rates depending on when they were bought. Bonds bought between May 1997 and April 2005 earn a variable interest rate, meaning their interest rate changes. It changes every 6 months and it's 90% of the average 5-year Treasury yield for the previous 6 months. Bonds bought between May 2005 and the end of 2006 earn between 3.2 percent and 3.7 percent interest and will continue to do so for as long as you own them.
