Our Thought Leaders in Online Education (TLOE) blog is a
follow-up to our highly successful Thought Leaders series (TLBD,
TLCC, TLMS). In TLOE, we interview thought leaders in the
educational technology/online education sectors -- whether they
are entrepreneurs building great companies, product/user
experience designers building great products, deans at colleges
and universities, or executives at large companies with unique
perspectives on how the education industry is evolving. We
discuss trends, disruptions, entrepreneurial opportunities,
monetization models, challenges, socio-cultural impact and much
more in a seven-part series. This blog is part of the One
Million by One Million global initiative, whose aim is to help a
million entrepreneurs reach $1 million in annual revenue. 1M/1M
has syndication relationships with many venues: HBR, Xconomy,
SmallBizTrends, EconomicTimes (India), Women 2.0, Mashable,
Huffington Post, Business Insider, ReadWriteWeb, and several
other sites. Articles we develop through these interviews often
get repackaged for the syndication partners. The 1Mby1M blog was
named by Forbes in the Top 100 Blog for Entrepreneurs
(http://onforb.es/1a6RkOs) and among the top 100 influencers on
the topic of cloud computing. Sramana Mitra was also named as
one of the top 10 LinkedIn influencers of 2015
(https://goo.gl/AN9TjS). Indicate in your pitch the revenue
level, as we use this as a qualification criterion for selecting
entrepreneurs to profile. We don't necessarily have to publish
this number in the actual story. Our audience is extremely
sophisticated, so the conversation needs to be equally
interesting.

Query:

Over the past few years, data privacy has evolved from "nice to
have" to a business imperative and critical boardroom issue.
Today, people are asking more questions about how their personal
data is used, and they now view privacy as an important
component of a company. Privacy regulations like the EU's
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) have raised awareness
and enforcement of privacy, and this is compelling organizations
to better manage and protect personal data to avoid significant
fines and penalties. According to Cisco 2019 Consumer Privacy
Survey for 2020, the percentage of organizations saying they
receive significant business benefits from data privacy has
grown to over 70%.

For ref:

Name: Judy Mandell the washington post

Category: General

Email: query-b5mu@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: the washington post

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 18 August

Query:

I am writing an article titled for the Washington Post title
"Let's Be Nice Again: How Venting Our Emotions and Being Rude
Can Damage Our Children - For Life." Being sheltered-in for
months on end can make us forget our manners. The stress of
our current everyday lives can make it difficult for some people
to control their emotions. Our children learn from us.
Venting our emotions and being rude can damage our kids - for
life. It's really important for children to have good manners.
Kids who have poor social skills are often less successful when
they grow up.

I am looking for people to talk about what they have seen in
terms of behavior during the Covid-19 pandemic ... .from adults
and from children -- the good, the bad, and the ugly.

I will interview parents for their take on this issue as well as
psychologists, psychiatrists, pediatricians, and even kids for
their perspective.

I'm especially interested in recent studies that show how
success (more than education level, demographics, and who you
know) depends on a person's social skills. And why teaching
proper behavior, young people will feel more comfortable and
proficient later in life.

In early weeks of the Covid-19 quarantine, it seemed that people
were better behaved, but since that period, emotional states
have declined.

What's the answer? How can we curb rudeness and teach our
children to control their behaviors? How can we become nice
again?
