12) Summary: "5 Things You Need To Delegate Effectively and Be Completely Satisfied With the Results"Name: Yitzi Weiner Authority Magazine
Category: Business and FinanceEmail: query-bag2@helpareporter.net
Media Outlet: Authority Magazine
Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 15 October
Query:
Dear Friends Authority Magazine is starting a new interview
series called
"5 Things You Need To Delegate Effectively and Be Completely
Satisfied With the Results" . Full description here
https://bit.ly/2HjOT4q
The ability to effectively delegate can be one of the most
effective tools a good leader can use. Without the ability to
delegate one becomes "the bottleneck of their own success".
While this is of course true, delegating can be hard and
requires a great deal of trust in one's team. There is also the
persistent voice in one's head that argues that "if you want
something done right you need to do it yourself". So indeed,
how do leaders delegate effectively in a way that allows them to
be completely satisfied with the results?
We would like to interview successful CEOs, founders, and
business leaders who can share advice from their own experience
about "5 Things You Need To Delegate Effectively and Be
Completely Satisfied With the Results"
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:
https://medium.com/authority-magazine/how-holly-oneill-of-bank-of-america-tackles-the-extreme-work-life-balance-of-being-a-woman-a3c4503bd5d4?source=friends_link&sk=8dfa9d3e55384c6cb1d00661fdfabf33

https://thriveglobal.com/stories/social-impact-heroes-how-amber-zenith-emily-nelson-have-helped-to-reignite-a-love-for-aerobic-workouts-across-north-america/
In addition, after the all interviews are completed, an article
featuring the best ideas will be submitted to Buzzfeed and
Entrepreneur.com, like these we have done:
https://www.entrepreneur.com/slideshow/345415
https://www.entrepreneur.com/slideshow/340907
https://www.entrepreneur.com/slideshow/339554
The Buzzfeed article will look similar to this:
https://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewziegler/heres-what-the-best-athletes-of-the-90s-look-lik
Individuals who are accepted for this series will be featured in
at least 2 - 4 articles.
Yitzi Weiner, Charlie Katz & Jerome Knyszewski will be the
primary lead for the series. Most interviews will not require
phone interviews and can be done by email. Requirements:
We would like to interview successful CEOs, founders, and
business leaders who can share advice from their own experience
about "5 Things You Need To Delegate Effectively and Be
Completely Satisfied With the Results"
Please leave your pitch below so that we do not miss your
email. (The text of your submission will be a pitch for an
interview, and will not be used in the actual article)

this one) can be seen here bit.ly/otherarticlesweareworkingon

Query:
My name is Erik Martin and I am a freelance writer for Speech
Technology Magazine (www.speechtechmag.com). I'm looking to
interview speech technology experts, voice-based information
companies, artificial intelligence experts, regulatory experts,
and other related professionals for the following story topic:
The Regulatory Landscape for Data-Driven Voice Solutions. This
article will explore how new government regulations, like the

the California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA), and others will

it, and what they need to do to protect it.

have been proposed that are significant and designed to affect
what voice-based information companies can collect, use, store,
and protect data (e.g., GDPR, CCPA, etc.). 4. Do you believe
it's important that state/national governments get involved in
this issue and enforce more regulations on speech data
companies? Why/why not? 5. What effect can/will these
regulations have on what speech data companies can collect and
what they can do with the data? 6. What unique threats might
speech data be subject to that would necessitate greater
regulation? Please provide one or more examples. 7. What steps
should voice-based information companies be taking to prevent
these threats/risks? Please provide details and specific
recommendations (e.g., Requirements around how customers should
be notified that their voice may be recorded, etc.). 8. Are
there any potential risks of over-regulation, which could for
example stifle speech tech innovation or the ability for these
voice-based information companies to sufficiently conduct
business? 9. Can you also suggest one or more other experts I
should try to interview for this story (if so, please provide
contact information)? 10. Any other tips, thoughts, comments or
ideas on this topic you'd like to add? 11. What is your full
name, title, company, and city/state headquarters?

Media Outlet: Eat This
Deadline: 7:00 PM PST - 22 September
Query:
I'm working on two separate articles for Eat This, Not That!:
The #1 Worst Food to Never Order at McDonald's The #1 Worst
Thing to Buy at Costco's Bakery
Costco's nutrition info isn't available online (I reached out to
them directly to see if they're willing to share it with me),
but a number of their bakery items are listed online here:
https://www.costcobusinessdelivery.com/fresh-baked-goods.html
I'm looking for RDs to share the most unhealthy food at
McDonalds and the most unhealthy bakery item at Costco, and
include a description of why it's so unhealthy and should be
avoided. For Costco it could be something more general about how
a specific bakery item is typically packed with saturated fat
and sugar, for example.
For McDonald's the nutrition info is available online, and the
food order can be from any section of the menu (sugary coffee
drinks, sodium-ridden burger, etc). It just needs to be an food
or drink that's exclusive to McDonalds (i.e. we want to avoid
things like unhealthy sodas that are available at many
restaurants).
Requirements:
Registered Dietitians to share their input on the The #1 Worst
Food to Never Order at McDonald's and The #1 Worst Thing to Buy
at Costco's Bakery.
Note: If you only want to weigh in on one of these articles,
that's completely fine -- I'm putting them in the same query
because they're so similar but if you have limited time or only
feel comfortable speaking to one of these articles, I'd still
love to hear from you!
