Globe Business College Munich - Five Important Skills Your Teenager Should be Taught in High School

FIVE IMPORTANT SKILLS YOUR TEENAGER SHOULD BE TAUGHT IN HIGH SCHOOL

Why personal development matters in modern education

The world is moving faster than ever. Technological innovations come out every day that change the way we operate, from simple tasks like writing to more complex events like entertainment. Even larger job-related skills are quickly being converted into automated flows with robotics, AI, and machine learning.

A lot of these new developments excite our young people – and they should. It’s the world they’ll be living and working in. But as they get excited and plan to take their next steps after high school, are they going to be truly prepared to enter university and the job market? As educators, we’ve seen a growing problem: education that ignores the student’s personal development.

Here are five skills we think your teenager should be taught (and continuously work on) beginning in high school:

Time Management

Learning time management as a skill enables your son or daughter to effectively and efficiently divide their time between different activities, thus maximizing how effective their efforts are. A person who understands the value of their time understands the value of their tasks. They’ll be able to decide if something must be done, delayed, delegated, or deleted from their schedule. Learning this at a young age will help to balance assignments, exams, and additional responsibilities like work or family. And of course, these habits will carry over to university, helping their experience to feel more under their control. Practicing effective time management as a teenager will make this extremely valuable skill second nature when they enter the job market.

Bigger Picture Thinking

With the rapid changes we previously discussed, everyone is thinking about the future and wondering what it will look like. When your son or daughter is taught to see a challenge, goal, or idea in a broader vision, then break down the abstract concept into what actually needs to be done to accomplish the idea, they’re practicing bigger-picture thinking. This skill is a strategy that focuses on the entirety of what’s to come instead of obsessing over the details or the unknowns that might feel overwhelming. Anytime they feel overwhelmed, stopping to ask, β€˜What am I really moving towards with my actions?’ will help them to refocus, realign, and understand the importance of their current movement.

Grit, Passion, and Determination

Many people will say grit can’t be taught, but we disagree. We absolutely believe that grit exists in all of us and sometimes, just needs to be nurtured and encouraged. Often times young people fail to develop grit, or the passion and determination needed to achieve long-term and meaningful goals, simply because they’re told they have all the time in the world to accomplish what they want. While they may, this is a huge disservice because grit, passion, and determination are not simply how badly they want to achieve something, nor are these important skills a symbol of their natural talent. Instead, grit, passion, and determination are harnessing the power behind wanting a goal so badly that you choose to organize and structure your actions in such a meaningful way that to fail would almost be impossible. When a young person is nurtured and shown they can develop such focused intensity, their sheer determination can often overtake someone else’s natural born talent. Grit comes from high levels of self-control and self-consciousness. If your son or daughter can control and use these to empower their growth, the challenges of the future might not seem so intimidating.

Empathic Exchange

Communication is hard and with the digitalization of conversations through text, messenger, and social media, we’ve seen young people who have lost the ability to read body language or understand unspoken communication. In the classroom and in the job market, we have expectations for professional and pragmatic conduct. These are rooms and spaces where emotions create more challenges than comfort, and can often create conflict when one doesn’t understand how to be a part of the larger conversation taking place outside of just the words being spoken. When your son or daughter learns how to hold empathic exchanges, they can change or impact the direction or even person of the conversation. Empathic exchange helps to build relationships, trust, and more honest conversations. From speaking with their teachers to leading extracurricular activities to networking and even interviewing for their first internship, this skill will be invaluable in their personal development journey.

Communication

We’ve listed communication last because it’s largely touched and impacted by the four previously mentioned skills in this list. Any form of speaking, writing, or any other medium our young people are exposed to, such as social media, sends a message that helps them to define who they are and how they want to interact with other people. When we say we need to teach the young people in our lives to be better communicators, we don’t mean train them to speak. We mean teach them to have the confidence to develop their own style of expressing their points, to stand up and do so with their head held high, and have confidence in their opinions, knowledge, and belief systems. Effective communication builds stronger relationships and helps your son or daughter to express their feelings and thoughts in a more efficient manner. The stronger their communication skills, the more likely they are to stand up for themselves, ask for help, or stand up for their beliefs in the classroom and job market.

All five of the above skills are strong as individual learning points, but when paired together, will create a truly dynamic, capable, and confident human. The next time you have the opportunity to speak to those educating your teenager, ask them what they’re doing to help your son or daughter develop these five crucial skills (time management, bigger picture thinking, grit passion and determination, empathic exchange, and communication).

At Globe Business College Munich, these five skills are the cornerstone of our educational philosophy. In 2006 we had the vision of creating a third level business college in Munich that combines the Irish and German approaches to education. The dream back then was to develop students who can combine the science and art of business. So graduates, who in addition to their formal academic qualifications, have the ability to think on their feet, operate in dynamic environments, have great people skills, communication abilities and are driven by a growth mind-set. That vision has materialised into a college that is filled with individual students who benefit every day from a unique educational approach. This uniqueness comes from the fact that at the core of everything we do is a relationship model that puts the individual at the centre.

Now we also offer our Golden Ticket Weekend workshop for students aged 16-19. Over the course of the weekend, they not only get an introduction to business with our special VIP network of company owners, mentors, coaches, and actors, they start their personal development on these five skills. The weekend is held on campus in Munich or on your child’s campus thanks to our generous network of sponsors and alumni who experienced our education first-hand.

For more information, go to Golden Ticket Weekend or Globe College. Let’s open the conversation for how we can become your partner in your son or daughters success.

Sharpe Launches Executive & Leadership Coaching Business

Sharpe Launches Executive & Leadership Coaching Business

Monaco resident Gavin Sharpe has launched his corporate wellbeing business. He is best known in the French Riviera for his individual wellbeing practice, Riviera Wellbeing. In October 2022, he launched the Good Life, a one-day event at the Monte-Carlo Bay hotel focused exclusively on individual wellbeing. He also appears on Riviera Radio with his wellbeing show, The Wellbeing Window on the first Wednesday of the month.

Sharpe is a former lawyer, entrepreneur and executive coach. He began his career as a lawyer in the city of London, transitioning from law to business. He co-founded an award winning, international recruitment company which was recognised in the U.K. by The Sunday Times. He has held several corporate executive roles since selling his recruitment business including his own sales training business.

β€œCorporate wellbeing has always been part of my service. The time feels right to announce the executive & leadership coaching business. Today’s thought-leaders, coaches and strategic advisors need to appreciate the interplay between psychology, neuroscience and modern-day leadership concepts. This is the sum of my life’s work.

As an accredited executive coach with the Academy of Executive Coaching, Sharpe was recently invited to become an Official Member of the Forbes Coaching Council. He recently joined the Monaco Economic Board.

Ingredifind - 90 Days In - How Are Your New Year's Resolutions Going?

Was January the month that you set New Year’s resolutions by starting a new diet or thinking about change? The first few months of the year are often a time when you look at your health and wellbeing and set out to make changes.

But 90 days in have you stuck to your goals? Rather than setting yourself something that may be difficult for you to achieve, try looking at more realistic goals to help you feel better about yourself.

Try the SMART approach β€” Small, Manageable, Achievable, Realistic and Timely.

Diet

Β· Instead of starting a new β€œfad” diet β€” simply make your diet healthier by adding more fruit, vegetables, fish, lean meats and plant based foods to your weekly menu

Β· Cut down on your sugary food and drink. Too much sugar in your diet can not only lead to weight gain, but also affects the way your pancreas produces insulin, increasing your risk of Type 2 Diabetes

Β· Use your freezer as your friend and cook more than you usually do. You can then portion these into containers, and you are ready to have a healthy meal in minutes when you don’t really want to cook

Β· Try making delicious and tasty vegetable soups. You can add any left over vegetables, beans, lentils, spinach, watercress, onion and garlic for a dish packed with essential nutrients

Β· Instead of eating your fruit cold β€” why not slice and warm it up. Good choices are apples, fresh/frozen berries, pineapple or orange. These can easily be frozen so you have them to hand

Β· Try swapping one of your snacks high in far, sugar and salt to a healthier option. By simply swapping 1 or 2 sugary snacks can really make a difference to a healthier you

Β· Keep your body hydrated and drink more water. Your body is mostly made up of water β€” nearly two thirds β€” so it’s important to aim for 6 to 8 glasses a day. Try having a glass of water, instead of a fizzy drink or coffee for example. Add fresh fruit to your water to change the flavour. Hydration is needed for your heart and circulation, digestion, for temperature control and for our brain to work well

Exercise

Β· Go outdoors as much as you can during daylight hours and embrace nature. A short walk or cycle ride is not only good for your body, but exercise helps to release endorphins and contributes towards a better mood and wellbeing

Β· If you are unable to go outdoors then make sure you have plenty of indoor plants. They not only look nice, but research has found that a friendly bacteria in plant soil (Mycobaterium Vaccae) triggers the release of serotonin, that can help alleviate symptoms of low mood and depression

Β· Variety is important, so take up a new hobby that you really enjoy β€” you are more likely to stick to it if it’s something that makes you happy

Remember you have a whole new year to make changes, so treat your New Year as a marathon β€” rather than a sprint.

Metabolic Balance Health - Herbs and Spices - the Pharmacy of Nature

HERBS & SPICES - THE PHARMACY OF NATURE

When it hurts, we often reach for the next best medicine. We often don't know which active ingredient we're taking, not to mention the side effects. But to be honest - we don't want to know as long as it helps!

However, the things that really promote health can be found in nature!

We are only too willing to take expensive dietary supplements that deliver supposedly valuable but isolated active ingredients from selected foods: Curcumin from turmeric, resveratrol from grape seeds or DHA (omega-3 fatty acids) from algae or fish oil, to name just a few. They should lead to more well-being, strengthen the immune system and act against inflammation.

Nature, on the other hand, provides foods with a wealth of active ingredients, such as antioxidants, essential oils or omega-3 fatty acids, which – embedded in the natural food mix – occur in such a way that we can optimally use their health potential.
Especially herbs and spices impress with their richness in nutrients.

No wonder that in ancient times many wars were fought over herbs and spices, and in search of them new countries have been discovered. But why should people fight over herbs and spices? What makes them so valuable?

They contain so-called phytonutrients. These are secondary plant substances or essential oils, which are extraordinarily healthy. The high proportion of antioxidants, which fight dangerous free radicals in the body very effectively, also makes the seasoning ingredients so valuable.

Even the smallest amounts keep us mentally fit, strengthen the immune system, support fat burning, have a positive effect on blood sugar levels and boost the metabolism. For example, oregano stimulates appetite, coriander is considered to strengthen the stomach and helps with fullness. Dill and basil soothe the nerves, parsley and tarragon dehydrate - to name just a few examples.
To date, not all effects have been scientifically proven in studies. Much of it is based on traditional applications and has been successfully used for many health purposes for centuries. Hildegard von Bingen and many other persons skilled in the art of healing, who have studied herbs and spices, have used and still use the healing powers of spices and herbs for health benefits.

Tip: Season and refine your dishes with a wide variety of spices and herbs and thus absorb an additional portion of valuable vital substances for more well-being and vitality every day.

Dmark International - How Artificial Intelligence is Revolutionizing Digital Marketing

Dmark International - How Artificial Intelligence is Revolutionizing Digital Marketing

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the most disruptive technologies of our time, and it's having a major impact on the field of digital marketing. In just a few short years, AI has transformed the way businesses interact with customers and reach new audiences, offering powerful new tools and insights that were previously impossible to access.

From chatbots that offer real-time customer support to predictive analytics that help businesses understand their target audience, AI is changing the digital marketing landscape in ways we never thought possible. In this article, we'll explore the ways in which AI is revolutionizing digital marketing, and what businesses need to know to take advantage of these new opportunities.

Β·      Chatbots

One of the most notable ways that AI is transforming digital marketing is through the use of chatbots. Chatbots are computer programs that use natural language processing (NLP) algorithms to interact with customers in real-time. They can be integrated into a company's website or social media platforms, and are designed to help businesses engage with their customers and answer common questions in an efficient and personalized manner.

Chatbots are particularly useful for businesses that want to offer 24/7 customer support, as they can respond to customer inquiries at any time of the day or night. They also allow businesses to collect data on customer behavior, which can be used to improve their marketing strategies and target customers more effectively.

One example of a business that has successfully used chatbots in its digital marketing strategy is H&M, the Swedish clothing retailer.

H&M launched a chatbot on Facebook Messenger that allowed customers to browse the latest collections, receive recommendations based on their style preferences, and even place an order directly through the chat interface. This approach has helped H&M to offer a more personalized shopping experience and reach a wider audience, and has been well-received by customers.

Β·      Predictive Analytics

Another way that AI is revolutionizing digital marketing is through predictive analytics. Predictive analytics involves using machine learning algorithms to analyze vast amounts of data and predict future outcomes. In the context of digital marketing, this can be used to better understand customer behavior and preferences, and to develop more effective marketing strategies.

For example, a company may use predictive analytics to determine which marketing channels are most effective in reaching their target audience, or to identify which products are likely to be popular among customers in the future. This information can then be used to optimize the company's marketing budget and focus on the most effective campaigns.

Predictive analytics is particularly useful for businesses that want to reach new audiences and stay ahead of the competition. By using machine learning algorithms to analyze vast amounts of data, companies can gain valuable insights into customer behavior and preferences, and use this information to develop effective marketing strategies that reach their target audience.

Β·      Better Data-Driven Decision Making

Finally, AI is revolutionizing digital marketing by providing marketers with more data and insights than ever before. With the ability to analyze large amounts of data in real-time, AI algorithms can identify patterns and trends that would be difficult for a human to detect. This allows marketers to make more informed decisions and optimize their campaigns in real-time, leading to improved results and increased ROI.

Whether you're a small business owner looking to optimize your marketing campaigns or a large corporation seeking to stay ahead of the curve, AI has something to offer. By embracing this technology, businesses of all sizes can stay competitive in today's rapidly evolving digital landscape.

Contact us at Dmark International to understand the best way to implement AI in your company’s digital marketing.

The Relocation Hub – Key Relocation Services for Consideration

Once you have decided to relocate and make the move abroad, the most beneficial decision you can make is to choose a relocation service company that specifically focuses on relocating expats abroad.

Here are some key relocation services that you may want to consider.

Β·       Transport and removals: Your valuable items and furniture should be transported by a professional company, this will ensure your effects are packed and handled with care.

Β·       Pet Transport: There are regulations that must be upheld, so choosing a company with experience and know how will ensure you have the right documents and vaccinations.

Β·       Vehicle Transport: Many expats chose to take their vehicles to their new abode, this requires documents and in some cases import tax.

Once you have arrived at your new location, you may want to look around for services on hand, or you may decide to arrange certain services so that when you arrive you have everything arranged.

Here are some key services that you may want consider.

Β·       Visas & Immigration: It is imperative that you have the correct documentation for the country you propose moving to, this includes the entrance visas, if required, and resident permits. If you are going to work in that country, either for a company or self-employed, you will need to know the correct procedure.

Β·       Legal Services: It is vital that you have a lawyer that speaks your language. You may be purchasing a home or living in rented accommodation, maybe you are buying a business or want to prepare a Will of Testament, whatever legal transactions you require a recommended lawyer is always the best solution.

Β·       Schooling: Each family has its own ideas on how they would like their children educated. Most European countries have international junior and senior schools and for further education, colleges and universities. You may however choose to educate your child in a local state school at the beginning, this will help them integrate into the country and learn the language first hand.

Β·       Language: Learning the language of the country you propose to live in is vital, not only will this help you with every day’s tasks, it will benefit you to integrate into your new way of life. There are private groups of languages classes, private classes and classes provided by the local town halls.

Β·       Medical Services: You may be entitled to the state medical health service depending on your status. However, most expats chose to use a private medical company too. Most companies offer a family pack and some offer worldwide cover. In some countries you will be required to have private cover for the application of residency.

Β·       Banking & Foreign Exchange Services: When you arrive in your new home, you will have costs to cover, and need to be prepared. So opening a foreign exchange account with funds ready to use is a practical and money saving service that is vital for everyone who wants to avoid the high commissions charged by banks.

Β·       Property Management: A relocation company will be able to recommend a company to suit your needs, this may include renting out a property you have bought for investment purpose, gardens, pools and general maintenance.

Savills Monaco and French Riviera Sponsor the First Good Life Wellness Day Event in Monaco

The first inaugural β€˜Good Life’ wellness day event took place at the Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel in Monaco, with a waitlist the same size as the list of 94 attendees that were lucky enough to secure themselves a spot. Savills Monaco and French Riviera saw the sponsorship of this event as a great way to vocally show how the company supports wellness both in the workplace and within the home and also as a way to support an event helping the local community.

The day was hosted by Gavin Sharpe of Riviera Wellbeing, a local therapy centre and Dufflyn Lammers an addiction and relationship coach, originally from the USA but now living in Paris. From the off the event was fun and lively, with high levels of audience participation which reflected the good rapport the hosts had with the attendees.

Throughout the day there were various lectures on wellness areas such as discovering your authentic self, your relationship with money, love and problem behaviours. There was also an incredible workshop which developed a sense of self-awareness.

The cherry on top of the cake was that all proceeds of the event were dedicated to Child CARE Monaco. Money that will be used for new projects they are developing in south India.

Tickets cost €60 and proceeds are being donated to Child CARE Monaco. Lunch is included.

Gavin Sharpe said β€œIt’s been my ambition for some time to start a conversation on the French Riviera about wellbeing. The time is now. After Covid-19, the world changed for all of us.  Wellbeing is no longer just a bit of yoga on a Sunday afternoon but it’s a matter of survival. So how can we survive?”

In collaboration with 106.5 Riviera Radio, the event is being sponsored by three Monaco companies, Savills, Metabolic Balance, and Blevins Franks as well as one of the world’s leading rehab centres in Switzerland, Clinic Les Alpes.

The pair promise the day will be fun and practical.  Lammers and Sharpe want participants to take home practical tools which will enhance their lives, including a wellbeing kit. Topics include how to be financially healthy, how to make love relationships work and why healthy living is important.

How Can Private Tuition Help Your Child Achieve The Grades Needed To Apply To The Best Schools

We are seeing an increase in the number of our families requesting a full-time private tutor, governor, or governess. The feedback: a lack of confidence with standards in school education, especially since the covid pandemic closed schools across the globe, and an attempt by families to expose their children to the global knowledge economy, to give them an edge and ensure that they can compete for coveted places at top schools.

So with this in mind, how can a private tutor, governor, or governess work with your child to help them achieve their very best results and reach the outcome required?

 

One-on-One Attention

A private tutor, governor, or governess can develop and create lesson plans based on the specific needs and age of your child. They can match your children’s personalities and learning styles and give them the confidence to learn something that they find difficult in a typical classroom-stye environment. The school system tends to have large classes, and even where there are limits on numbers in each class, shy children are often in danger of being overlooked and left behind as they concentrate on the needs of the average student in the class. Where teachers don’t have time to provide the attention a child needs, and the longer this goes on, the more unlikely it becomes that the child will be able to catch up which can have a devastating effect on their self-esteem. A well-chosen one-on-one private educator has the luxury of being able to go back to the beginning, filling gaps in the knowledge and ensuring the child understands the topic and can apply the concepts and possibly even exceed the required standard.

 

Flexibility To Study Anything, Anywhere and Everywhere

Many of our families have busy schedules and like their families to travel with them around the world spending weeks to months in various countries. As this can be disruptive to a child’s schooling, a private tutor, governor or governess is able to travel with you on family vacations and business trips so that your child doesn’t miss key learning stages at school. A private educator will establish a daily educational plan and routine that allows for one-to-one instruction, learning activities and outings, preparing for tests and exams, and time to write assignments and Essays; fitting all this around the family’s obligations, downtime, and schedule. One of our tutors would regularly deliver lessons on the family’s private jet using the time efficiently so that on arrival the child could indulge in other more engaging pursuits. Additionally, to aid learning, a private tutor, governor or governess might choose to teach specific subjects on specific days. For example, maths and science on Mondays, languages on Tuesdays, art and music on Wednesdays with Friday dedicated to outdoor learning each week.

 

Learning More Than the Syllabus

A private tutor, governor, or governess teaches a wide variety of subjects in more depth than core curriculums usually require. For example, a bilingual educator will be able to deliver lessons in more than one language. Where your family regularly interacts with different cultures it might be important to you for the educator to teach proper etiquette, culture and customs, a code of conduct, and manners. In pursuit of top colleges, an accomplished, highly educated tutor, governor, or governess can often teach more than the information required by the curriculum and may be able to provide a wider viewpoint for study that allows a student to garner a deeper understanding not only of the core subject, but also the wider issues that impact the subject. Private tutors are also able to teach study skills and how to plan and organise your revision timetable, they can show a child how to best manage their time and prioritize tasks in exams and whilst studying. These life skills are valuable lessons that the child will be able to use throughout adulthood.

 

Goals and Objective Setting for Your Child’s Future

A private educator can help you set objectives in line with your and your child’s goals,aspirations, personality, and interests. Not all children know what they want to be when they grow up and a private tutor, governor, or governess can act as a coach, encouraging the child to explore their interests. Their focus on educational attainment alongside consistent praise, encouragement, and feedback can instill confidence in your child which will allow you and them to choose the right schools and colleges and be better prepared for entrance exams and often achieve higher results than their peers in traditional schools. A private tutor, governor, or governess can also support you in preparing your child for adulthood byimparting valuable life skills that they may not get exposed to in traditional educational systems.

 

Is your child struggling? Things to look out for:

Even if your child does attend an educational establishment, they may still benefit from having a private tutor, governor, or governess who will work closely with a student who has fallen behind or has learning difficulties. A child who might benefit from one-on-one attention might have:

 

β€’               Consistently poor or falling grades

β€’               Detentions for homework not completed

β€’               Not enjoying school

β€’               Stress or anxiety about school, friends, or grades

β€’               Difficulties with age-appropriate core skills such as reading, writing, or maths.

β€’               Diagnosed learning difficulties.

β€’               Not wanting to attend school
