Happy Eclipse Day. I think we ought to mark the occasion by sharing a few fun facts about solar eclipses: 

1. This is the first total solar eclipse in the US in seven years. 

2. A solar eclipse can only happen at full moon

3. A solar eclipse occurs when the sun, the moon and Earth are aligned, or in syzygy.

If you have a free moment, you should also mark the occasion by learning what your coworking options are in Pittsburgh.

Sometimes people are good at their jobs, but that doesn't always translate into being good at management, Technical.ly CEO Chris Wink points out. Although it might be tempting to promote individuals who excel at the work side of things, if you want company culture to be elevated, he says, make sure you choose a manager who is as good with people as they are at their work. 

"Management is tricky because people are fiendishly complex. Motivations, personalities and preferences vary widely. And yet, a manager’s job is to channel employees with various interests into a common goal," Wink said. "The difference between bad managers and good managers is vast, and the difference between good managers and great managers is more vast still."
