What are the downsides of reboot-to-restore software in a corporate environment?
cn flag

I work in a small IT department in a medium-sized enterprise (up to 200 users). Thanks to home office and our growing field workforce, it has become more challenging to supervise and manage our client PCs. One option we figured out to eliminate all our worries is to use reboot-to-restore software like Deep Freeze or HDGuard.

During our investigations, we found use-cases for that kind of software  ...

Shared folder on AzureAD server accessible to local domain?
us flag

We are moving to M/O365 and will need to script pulling attachments from e-mails. Those files will need to go into a shared folder that is accessible by computers on the local domain.

Is this shared folder scenario possible? If not, how about the shared folder on the local domain where the script runs on the AAD server and can access those?

Thanks, Travis

The Stunning Power of Questions

Much of an executive’s workday is spent asking others for information—requesting status updates from a team leader, for example, or questioning a counterpart in a tense negotiation. Yet unlike professionals such as litigators, journalists, and doctors, who are taught how to ask questions as an essential part of their training, few executives think of questioning as a skill that can be honed—or consider how their own answers to questions could make conversations more productive.

That’s a missed opportunity. Questioning is a uniquely powerful tool for unlocking value in organizations: It spurs learning and the exchange of ideas, it fuels innovation and performance improvement, it builds rapport and trust among team members. And it can mitigate business risk by uncovering unforeseen pitfalls and hazards.

For some people, questioning comes easily. Their natural inquisitiveness, emotional intelligence, and ability to read people put the ideal question on the tip of their tongue. But most of us don’t ask enough questions, nor do we pose our inquiries in an optimal way.

The good news is that by asking questions, we naturally improve our emotional intelligence, which in turn makes us better questioners—a virtuous cycle. In this article, we draw on insights from behavioral science research to explore how the way we frame questions and choose to answer our counterparts can influence the outcome of conversations. We offer guidance for choosing the best type, tone, sequence, and framing of questions and for deciding what and how much information to share to reap the most benefit from our interactions, not just for ourselves but for our organizations.
