On Thursday, the fair announced the selection of 34 projects— all that would fit in the 60,000-square-foot Grand Ballroom atop the Miami Beach Convention Center. (Actually, only 33 fit inside. An installation by Jose Davila will be staged outdoors on the convention center’s north side.) Art Basel announces gallery lineup for its 18th edition in Miami Beach in December • Global focus: 269 leading galleries from across the world to exhibit, with 20 galleries joining the fair for the first time • Unique overview of galleries and artists from the United States and Latin America, highlighting the fair’s importance within the region • Expansion of the fair with a new sector, Meridians, dedicated to large-scale works • Art Basel, whose Lead Partner is UBS, takes place from December 5 to December 8, 2019 at the Miami Beach Convention Center (MBCC) Today Art Basel announced the 269 leading international galleries selected for its 2019 edition in Miami Beach this December. As the premier art fair of the Americas, more than half of the exhibitors have exhibition spaces in North and South America, providing a unique overview of the art scenes within the region. 12 galleries from the Americas are participating in the fair for the first time: Barro Arte Contemporáneo from Buenos Aires; Document, moniquemeloche, and Mariane Ibrahim Gallery from Chicago; M+B and Parker Gallery from Los Angeles; Nicelle Beauchene Gallery, Company Gallery and Karma from New York; Galería Agustina Ferreyra from Mexico City; Central Fine from Miami Beach; and Cooper Cole from Toronto.

In addition, Taka Ishii Gallery from Tokyo and Edouard Malingue Gallery with exhibition spaces in Hong Kong and Shanghai both return to the fair after a hiatus.

Leading experts in Modern and historical works such as Acquavella Galleries, Landau Fine Art and Mary-Anne Martin Fine Art are joined by a new generation of art galleries including Clearing, Galeria Jaqueline Martins, and Société, allowing the show to span over a century of art history. Additionally, Meridians will provide a new platform for galleries and their artists to show work that pushes the boundaries of the traditional art fair layout. Curated by Magalí Arriola, Director of Museo Tamayo, the sector will be staged in the new Grand Ballroom of the MBCC, a column-less exhibition space of almost 6,000 square meters (60,000 square feet) that is directly connected to the exhibition halls.

The Importance of Leadership and Company Success
When it comes to company success, a lot of people have different views as to how companies achieve success. Some factors that emerge from that are a business strategy, work ethic, market conditions, and a lot more. Leadership is an extremely important component of growth and can guarantee the success of any business. A leader is someone who sets the direction for the people under them and paves the path so that the people they’re leading can get the right kind of guidance. The importance of leadership for business success is something that has gone entirely unnoticed. Alongside maximizing productivity and achieving set targets, leaders also help motivate employees to work hard, and that is really important since employees are the backbone of any company. Character Traits of a Good Leader You know a great leader when you see the following character traits: Character A good leader should have an exemplary character. In order for others to follow in his footsteps, they need to be someone who can be trusted. They should be dignified and should conduct all matters with honesty and integrity. They should also have a strong belief system and should be morally and ethically awake. Confidence A good leader should ideally be really confident in their dealings. In order for their subordinates to follow them, they first need to be really confident in themselves. Confidence and assertiveness work hand in hand and add to the charisma of a leader. Communication A good leader should be able to openly communicate their thoughts to their subordinates effectively so that they can clearly comprehend what the leader is trying to say. A good leader should ensure that the aura that they have built around themselves is as such that their subordinates can also talk to them comfortably since two-way communication is highly important to guarantee success. Optimism A leader should always be hopeful and should have a positive approach to life. In order for the leader to ensure that the team works effectively, they first need to guide the team in the right direction. That can only be done if the leader is optimistic. The positive energy that a good leader brings will flow to the whole team, and that’s when work really can get done. Accountability A leader should always take responsibility for all the tasks that are done under his or her supervision and guidance. That is when they can make the right kind of improvements. Things a Leader Should Do Guidance The first and foremost thing that a leader should do should be to provide the right kind of guidance to the team. A leader sets the direction that others follow, so it’s imperative that a good leader knows what they’re doing. Motivate the Employees A leader should motivate their employees and should be able to inspire them to work hard and give it their best. Initiate Action A leader should ideally be able to make the team perform a task in the right way and in the given time period. They should be able to do whatever it takes to get employees to work in the way the organization needs them to.

RMG Staffing Says Farewell to One of Its Greats
Being a human resource manager is not an easy job. Though an HR manager is one of the first persons an employee meets upon getting hired and is usually the person who guides one through the introductory stages of employment, a great HR manager is somewhat of a hidden gem who moves around an office like blood maneuvers throughout the body, making sure each and every employee has the necessary support to perform the daily duties and responsibilities the company requires. Aside from administrative support, a good and nice HR manager will usually remind you to take your vacation time before you lose it. Former RMG Staffing HR Manager Teresa Walker has done all of the previously mentioned things and much more, she not only placed people in their positions, she placed them in their passions. She believed in changing lives and so she did to so many. Teresa had been a vital asset to the company and through her many years of service; RMG Staffing had seen tremendous growth. As a human resource executive for RMG Staffing, her long list of duties and responsibilities included helping out with RMG’s branding and business development, devising company initiatives to increase productivity, implementing recruitment strategies and setting retention goals. Overall, her countless efforts had contributed greatly to RMG Staffing being now the leading staffing agency within South Florida’s staffing industry. In addition to her tremendous contributions to Team RMG, Teresa has a big heart and it showed during the many times RMG was asked to enlist employees to support foundations and non-profit organizations. She spearheaded RMG Staffing’s involvement in last year’s Walk to Cure Lupus. Her smile and demeanor during the event inspired other employees to not only be great workers but also greater human beings who contribute to causes. “Without a doubt, our company would not be what it is today if it wasn’t for Teresa,” President and CEO of RMG Staffing Ricardo Michelangeli says of Teresa Walker. “Within the years she was a part of our team, she showed loyalty and great dedication. She helped increase company productivity and came up with creative ideas that pushed our company to heights that we never thought were imaginable. She will surely be missed, a one-of-a-kind Human Resource Manager. We wish her success in her new journey.”
