| | | As the District continues to dig out from this past weekend's massive snowfall, both the federal government and the Senate have shut down for the day. That doesn't mean the whole weekend was quiet though. | | Feb 8, 2010 | |
| | | From new unemployment data to the swearing in of a new Senator, this week was chock full of highlights for the Total Rewards professional. | | Feb 5, 2010 | |
| | | On Monday President Obama fulfilled a time-honored tradition and submitted his federal budget. It's always good reading because it offers a roadmap of the president's priorities. This year, a number of those priorities intersect with Total Rewards issues. | | Feb 3, 2010 | |
| | | Much is being made of the marked change in tone and priorities following Pres. Obama's State of the Union last Wednesday. | | Feb 1, 2010 | |
| | | This week has been all about the State of the Union. After Wednesday's speech, the rest of this week has been spent analyzing the words of the speech and reactions to the speech. | | Jan 29, 2010 | |
| | | President Obama's first State of the Union address had plenty of themes related to total rewards. Most prevalent in his speech was the need to create jobs so that businesses could hire talent and right the economy. | | Jan 28, 2010 | |
| | | Tonight, Pres. Obama will give his first, official State of the Union speech to Congress. While there are many reports this morning on what may or may not be included in tonight's address, I thought I would focus on the recent remarks of another resident of the White House: First Lady Michelle Obama. | | Jan 27, 2010 | |
| | | Last Friday the House Financial Services Committee held a hearing on compensation in the financial industry. Witnesses included Harvard Law School professor Lucian Bebchuk, who is the director of corporate governance; Nell Minow, editor of the Corporate Library; and Columbia Business School professor Joseph Stiglitz. | | Jan 26, 2010 | |
| | | Good Monday morning readers! After last week's announcement that Pres. Obama thinks there needs to be a "breather" from the debate, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell advocating starting the process over, and observers questioning what used to be considered conventional wisdom, it seems to be the right time to turn our attentions elsewhere. | | Jan 25, 2010 | |
| | | This week marked President Obama's first anniversary of taking office. New polls were released showing that President Obama still has pretty high ratings but his domestic policies are not so popular and Senator-elect Brown (R-MA) came to town yesterday. His arrival has thrown DC into a tizzy. His election has key Democrats spending the last few days pointing fingers and issuing conflicting and confusing statements about what¿s next on the congressional agenda. | | Jan 22, 2010 | |
