Depression doesn't play favorites. Men and women, the young and the old, and even those people who seemingly have everything can suffer from the complex disorder that makes all facets of life just so hard. While most mental illnesses are quite rare, major depression is exceedingly common. Nearly 7 percent of American adults —an estimated 16 million people in 2013 — had at least one major depressive episode, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. As common as it is, the stigma around depression persists, which is why it matters when celebrities and other well-known people reveal their own struggles. Just this month, in an interview with Billboard magazine, Lady Gaga said she has suffered with depression and anxiety her whole life, "every single day." "Nashville" actress Hayden Panettiere revealed she sought treatment for postpartum depression. And Sarah Silverman opened up about her battles with depression in a piece in Glamour magazine. T...

Divisive Sri Lanka Leader Angles for a Comeback Ex-President Rajapaksa leads ethnically charged campaign, vows closer ties to China NAULA, Sri Lanka—Flanked by saffron-robed Buddhist monks, former Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapaksa exhorted a crowd of more than a thousand supporters at a weekend election rally, saying: “We saved this country. Don’t let it be divided again.” The 69-year-old politician, ousted by voters earlier this year, is seeking a return to office —this time as prime minister—in an ethnically charged campaign mixing economic promises with warnings of resurgent terror by minority Tamils, defeated six years ago after a long civil war. If Mr. Rajapaksa and his allies win next month’s parliamentary elections, he has vowed to tighten internal security and restore strong ties with China , which wants to boost its influence in the Indian Ocean region and was a major funder of development projects undertaken by the ex-president. Lionized by the Sinhal...

exposing those drivers out there that can't seem to act civilized on the road and display unsafe or poor driving practices.

I was having a conversation with a director of an organisation the other day. She said to me, “Colin, I feel like I’m getting dumber in my old age.” And as we started to explore it, we discovered that she was actually breaking a few of the brain rules that help you function best in your organisation or in your business. So what I want to share with you right now are the 3 fundamental brain rules that you must be aware of to function at your highest performance. In the Productivity Academy, I talk about how you use your brain most effectively. These three brain rules are part of what makes up someone’s mindset around being effective and being productive. So I started to discuss the following rules with my executive client, and what we realised was that she was breaking a lot of them, here they are below: In other words, you need to be writing everything down. Your brain was not designed to be a filing cabinet. It was actually designed to be a calculator. What that means is ...

The global soccer community was rocked this past week when the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) announced charges and arrests for "rampant, systemic, and deep-rooted" corruption by high-ranking members of FIFA, the sport's global governing body. Using the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) as its legal hammer, the DOJ outlined in its 47-count indictment a disturbing history of alleged bribes and racketeering by top FIFA officials dating back as far as two decades. It is evident that more troubles lie ahead for the global soccer body, as Swiss officials have announced that they are also investigating potential improprieties. The relevance of the events of the past week are obvious to our profession, but it goes well beyond an acknowledgement of internal audit's role in providing assurance on anti-bribery and anti-corruption programs and its role in detecting and deterring fraud and corruption. Indeed, this unfolding spectacle touches on no less than f...
