Query:
Dear Friends Authority Magazine is starting a new interview
series called
How To be An Effective Leader During Turbulent Times. Full
description here https://bit.ly/2OZ7GT7
We are living in unprecedented and unpredictable times. As a
business leader, how can one make plans when the future is so
unpredictable? How can one inspire, motivate and engage their
team when the future seems so uncertain? How does a leader
communicate and direct effectively when people are facing so
many personal challenges?
We would like to interview CEOs and business leaders who have
lead during difficult times, and who can discuss 'How To be An
Effective Leader During Turbulent Times'.
The interview series will have two stages.
All of the full interviews will be published in Arianna
Huffington's Thrive Global and Authority Magazine, and they will
look like the following:

Query:
We're looking for expert comments with advice to pizzeria and
other restaurant owners trying to survive the pandemic. Feel
free to email me with your responses to these questions to be
considered for this article running in September 2020:
1. Assuming the coronavirus actually worsens in the fall, what's
the no. 1 smartest move a pizzeria owner can make to keep her
doors open? Let's move beyond the obvious answers like "keep the
store clean and make customers feel safe" while still thinking
in terms of management and operations.
2. What's the biggest mistake you've seen restaurant operators
make during the pandemic?
3. Assuming job prospects don't improve significantly by
September, how can pizzeria owners create a sense of value for
their cash-strapped customers?
4. Feel free to answer a relevant question that I didn't ask
above!
3.
Requirements:
Interviews will be conducted via email only - no phone calls,
please. We're looking for quotes from restaurant industry
industry consultants and owners/operators anywhere in the U.S.
But if you're located in an area that has been particularly
hard-hit by the pandemic, your suggestions might be even more
valuable.

Deadline: 11:00 PM EST - 4 August
Query:
Companies in many nations are placing renewed focus on
diversity issues since the death of George Floyd and subsequent
upsurge in the BLM movement. But many firms/institutions are
leaning disproportionately on employees who are people of colour
to suggest possible initiatives/join committees/help formulate
more constructive responses. This is placing undue burden on
these employees - often they aren't paid extra and participation
can take a toll, both in terms of emotional health and dealing
with workload. I want to hear from corporate diversity experts,
academics, and companies from around the globe. Why are
companies/organizations turning to POC employees, what's driving
this, companies don't know where else to turn, or what exactly,
what's the thinking? - What's the impact on the staff member?
Should they engage or not? If people want to engage, how can
they do so in a way that works for them and doesn't become a
burden? - What should companies be doing differently and what
are some best practices? Any companies/organizations that have
made progress in this area this summer, what to hear your story,
what you've done so far? Want to hear from companies/experts
from around the world.

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 4 August
Query:
We're working on a piece titled Yes, It's Fine to Ask Your
Family Members to Quarantine Before Thanksgiving Dinner. We
don't anticipate the pandemic being over by the holidays, and
since there are so many conflicting views on what the necessary
safety precautions are, there will undoubtedly be conflicts
between family members. If you're hosting Thanksgiving dinner
and having people come into your home, it's okay to ask them to
stay home, wear masks, quarantine the week before, etc. We are
focusing on how to have that conversation with your family
members who may not agree with your request.
Questions below:
Once you've decided what you're comfortable with, what's the
best way to make the request? Send out a group text? Call each
person individually?
How should you communicate with a family member who doesn't
think the precautions are necessary and voices that opinion to
you (or doesn't think the virus is real, etc.)?
What if someone is unwilling to do what you've asked? Is it okay
to say they can't come if they're not willing to take the safety
precautions you've laid out, or should you compromise?
Requirements:
Looking for a professional etiquette expert or a family
therapist to weigh in on how to have these conversations with
your family.

Query:
We're a TV station who has had a rash of people complaining
they've ordered something off an online or social media ad and
totally gotten something else that was a blatant rip off.
For example one person ordered Clorox wipes and got a pair of
socks.
Another person ordered a yeti cooler and got some sort of cheap
ring you'd get from a Cracker Jack box.
Then when these consumers went to complain on PayPal they hit
road blocks trying to get refunds.
We're looking for for consumers who have had this happen and
experts to talk about what's up here?
Are you seeing an increase in these kinds of complaints?

Query:
Hi! I'm looking to get a quote from a small business leader who
recently shifted their business to operate mostly online due to
social distancing requirements.
Specifically, I want to know if you found shifting internal
business processes to be online (e.g., employee performance
reviews) a challenging factor in going digital.
Could you tell me the specific business process, how you've
taken it online (software used), and why it is/was a challenge?
Your experience and insight could be used as an example in my
upcoming report for Capterra.
Thank you so much! Olivia
Requirements:
Please only respond if you're a small business leader
(U.S.-based, 2-500 employees) and recently shifted/are shifting
business processes online/virtual.
And that you've had a challenge specifically with shifting an
internal operation/process online. An example could be how
employees now get online IT help instead of walking over to that
dept.
I appreciate the help!
