In an effort to enhance ISTAT's networking offerings and increase the overall value of membership, ISTAT provided a private business Chalet for its members at the 2015 International Paris Air Show. The Chalet’s ideal location provided spectacular views of the flying displays and a cool respite for the more than 1,500 guests who visited over six days. On Monday, 15 June, nearly 1,200 ISTAT members and guests made their way to the Palais Brongniart in Paris’s "Vivienne" district for the ISTAT Reception at International Paris Air Show. The venue provided an elegant and historic backdrop for an evening of networking and celebration.

As organizations run leaner and flatter, your ability to move up can stall much earlier in your career because, simply put, there’s no place to go. This is true whether you work for a corporation, nonprofit, or public agency. So what should you do when you reach that plateau and you’re only midway through your career? There are at least four proven approaches, all of which require that you ask what energizes you and what saps your motivation.

It’s a stereotype that men would rather be lost than stop and get directions, but it turns out asking for help carries a psychological penalty for guys. A study from researchers at Duke University, the University of San Diego, and the University of Pittsburgh found that male leaders who ask for help are perceived as being less competent. When female leaders solicit help, however, the negative image didn’t apply. Whether you’re male or female, the question shouldn’t be if you should ask for help. It should be, how do you ask for help?
