Customer Reviews:
Valuable to non-architects, too.......2006-07-01
A must for anyone, architect or not, who might give a presentation . . . or at least wants to give an effective presentation. The book is thorough and easy to read, while the principles are readily transferable to any business or organization. I've ordered copies for all of my company's field representatives. Even the most seasoned professional will find value in this book.
Everything You Need to Know about Making Presentations.......2003-06-16
Finally, in one book, a manual of preparing for and making great presentations, especially written for practicing architects. David Greusel has assembled information that will help presenters new and old. If you're just getting started making presentations, this book will show you how to do it. If you're an old hand at marketing professional design services, you will find this book summarizes everything you've ever learned about making presentations - and you will learn some new things, too.
David's presentation approach focuses on helping the presenter make a connection with the audience. He has tips on how to create your presentation, what types of visual aids to use, and how best to settle your nerves in case of "butterflies".
The best reason to buy this book? If you don't, your competition probably will.
Presenting well is only part of a comprehensive marketing / business development plan. But it is the most visible. If your career depends upon persuading others - clients, potential clients, town planning boards, et al - then you need the "Architect's Essentials of Presentation Skills".

Book Description
This book evaluates the adequacy and equity of workers' compensation indemnity for New Mexico workers receiving permanent partial disability benefits.
Book Description
Employers that self-insure for workers' compensation have greater incentives than insured employers to return injured employees to work as quickly as possible. And because self-insured firms typically are larger, they often have more opportunities to offer injured workers modified work. This report examines the consequences of a disabling workplace injury for workers at 68 private self-insured employers in California from 1991 through 1995. Using employer-provided data on permanent disability claims, which were then linked to longitudinal data from the state of California on earnings before and after injury, the authors estimate the earnings losses associated with a permanent disability and examine the post-injury employment patterns of permanent disability claimants. They found significant earnings losses for claimants at the self-insured firms--more than 20 percent of earnings over the five years after injury. The authors compared the experiences of workers at self-insured firms with workers at insured firms and found lower proportional losses at self-insured firms, but also slightly lower replacement rates. They also found better return to work at self-insured firms. However, when controlling for pre-injury earnings, industry, and firm size, differences in earnings losses between workers injured at self-insured and insured firms are diminished.

From the supplier: The California Commission on Health and Safety and Worker's Compensation may review the state's permanent partial disability (PPD) workers' compensation system. Critics of the system say that it has remained practically the same for decades and that PPD claims are the most expensive of all workers' comp claims. National Council on Compensation Insurance statistics show that California has more PPD claims than any other state, at 2,089 per 100,000 employees.
