Build and protect your wealth and finances.
Guard your identity and credit.
Identity theft is one of the fastest-growing crimes in the world today. Fortunately, as SpringsComm members you have access to TOTAL PROTECTION® from IDENTITY CARD®, an online services that proactively monitors your credit, provides insurance coverage for certain identity theft losses and delivers computer security protection. Members consistently use the same three words to describe what the service gives them: peace of mind.
In addition to monitoring credit daily, TOTAL PROTECTION® provides an all-in-one credit report based on data from the three major credit reporting agencies. If unauthorized credit access occurs, you will be notified so you can take quick action to resolve the problem. Healthy credit is particularly important before a major purchase like a car or home. A healthy credit rating means better interest rates.
Children are increasingly vulnerable to opportunistic identity theft. Every time they’re enrolled in a new camp, school or online program, their personal information is exposed. IDENTITY GUARD recently launched Kid Sure®, a service that scours thousands of sources daily to protect your children’s personal information. Without such safeguards, a compromised credit report could haunt them in later years.
As a SpringsComm member, you’ll get excellent customer service and significant savings on the identity savings on the IDENTITY GUARD TOTAL PROTECTION® package. Executive members save up to 50 percent off typical pricing.
Attack of the idea killers
Attention vampires. They always want to stand out and be the center of attention. They can smother a brainstorming session by dominating the conversation, excessively pushing their ideas and ultimately sucking the life out of the whole group.
Dictators. They love every idea, as long as it’s theirs. These totalitarians feel they are the only ones with good ideas, or good taste, for that matter. Many bosses unknowingly become dictators in meetings (not on purposes, but their role in the company makes it too easy).
Idea assassins. These seasoned killers love to shoot down ideas-anyone’s and everyone’s. Under the pretense of being constructive, they find flaws, poke holes and pick apart promising ideas until they bleed to death.
Obstructionists. To them, nothing is simple or easy. They overcomplicate conversations and procedures and bring up extraneous facts or considerations that derail the flow of the group. Obstructionists over think, over speak and single-handedly dead-end otherwise promising sessions.
Social loafers. These are the people who show up for a brainstorming session but rarely participate in the generation of new ideas in a meaningful way or contribute much of substance. They usually sit back, appearing bored or aloof, and let others do the heavy lifting.
Wet blankets. These are the pessimists who have the unique ability to instantly dampen the enthusiasm level of a session by being discouraging and depressing, and the majority of their comments don’t hold water.
