INC. IN THE NEWS: Min, May 14, 2007

"INC.'S" JOHN TEBEAU BECOMES PUBLISHER--AND BECOMES A DAD.

Parenthood, of course, took nine months to "plan," as John and wife/Bausch & Lomb pharmaceutical sales exec JoAnn Tebeau welcomed son Jack--their firstborn--on May 6. (Folklore has it that a 5/6/7 birthdate brings good luck.) Career "gestation," happened much faster, as Inc. publisher Jayson Goldberg's move last month to Architectural Digest associate publisher led to Mansueto Ventures ceo/editor-in-chief John Koten promoting Tebeau to publisher on May 8 from national sales director (since October 2005). Two reasons for him to pass out cigars, and...double congratulations!

Folio: Summit Keynote: Despite Online Competition, Magazines Still a Good Investment
By Marrecca Fiore

When Joe Mansueto purchased Inc. and Fast Company for $32.5 million in 2005, they were two publications long-neglected by their publisher. "The previous owners (Gruner & Jahr) had disinvested in the magazines," said Mansueto, delivering the morning keynote at the Folio: Publishing Summit in Chicago. "They had lost the trust of the advertisers."

FAST COMPANY IN THE NEWS: The Wall Street Journal, March 19, 2007

Where Employees Praise Each Other With Cash

For human-resources experts trying to come up with simple ways for employees to give each other kudos, Kimley-Horn & Associates Inc. has a simple suggestion. Use money. Employees at the civil-engineering company can deliver a $50 bonus (plus $5 to cover taxes) to any other employee they think deserved it, reports Alex C. Pasquariello in Fast Company. They download a form, explain why the recipient deserves the $50, and preferably hand it to the recipient personally. The recipient gets the money from payroll within minutes and management has no veto power. Last year, the company, which has about 2,300 employees, awarded 6,174 bonuses.
