Expect the Unexpected–in Your Job Search as Well as the Economy by Georgia Adamson - Dec, 2011 In a previous post I talked about the need to be–and stay–aware of job search trends and other related trends. At the same time, it’s clear that the “experts” in a variety of fields don’t always have all the answers and they can’t predict with a high degree of certainty what the job market or the national/world economy will hold during the coming months, let alone years. If you look back in history a ways, you can find example... |

Inside the Mind at Work – What Really Motivates Us? by Dr. Maynard Brusman - Dec, 2011 Question for Discussion – How important is managing for progress? The topics of performance evaluations and feedback come up quite often in my executive coaching sessions. It’s human nature that people want to know where they stand.

Standing Out in a Job Search by Joshua Waldman - Dec, 2011 Sometimes, there is nothing wrong with defining who you are based on NOT being someone else. Let me explain. When I was in high school, I didn’t really stand out. Despite how hard I tried. Grew my hair long, dyed it green. Whatever it was I tried, it didn’t really work. I was still the quiet, unremarkable white kid in the back of the class. Then, one day the loud speaker announced, “Will Joshua Waldron please come ... |

3 Reasons Why Social Media Guru's Can't Help You Find a Job by Joshua Waldman - Dec, 2011 If you are big into personal effectiveness then you are familiar with Steven Covey’s 2nd Habit: Begin With the End in Mind. Actually, this principle extends far beyond the realm of self-help and into all aspects of our lives. A Sculpture is first conceived of in the mind of the artists, and then emerges from the stone. A symphony is first heard in the mind of the composer, and then written to the score. Likewise, in yo... |

Create an Executive Brand by Telling Your Story by Louise Garver - Dec, 2011 Think of Coca Cola. Do you have a picture of a can of Coca Cola clearly in your mind? What do you see? Red and white/silver aluminum can with distinctive lettering. Now picture a glass of coke, just an ordinary glass with a dark colored beverage inside. It could be Coke, but it could also be Pepsi; it could even be root beer. If the ‘resume’ of Coca Cola just talked about a carbonated soft drink in general terms, and didn’t re... |

Is job hopping an issue for job seekers? by Miriam Salpeter - Dec, 2011 Is job hopping an issue for job seekers? This was another of Quint Careers’ questions for those of us selected as “Career Masterminds” as part of their 15-year anniversary celebration. This was my reply: I attended an event hosted by iRelaunch, and a panel of hiring managers and recruiters discussed this question. Most agreed they liked to know why people changed from job to job; if the candidate appeared to be a job-h... |

Leaders .... What's Your "Likeability Factor"? by Andy Robinson - Dec, 2011 Leaders .... Stay conscious of your "Likeability Factor." Are others drawn to you because of your friendliness and approachability? Do you make an effort to help others -- whever possible -- feel better about themselves? Do you tend to seek out and point out the "good" in others' situations and circumstances? Do you opt for kindness over trying to be right? Likeability is a magnet -- When you're likeable, pe... |

The Art of the Exit by Dee McCrorey - Dec, 2011 This past year I've experienced "transitional speed-up" while writing Innovation in a Reinvented World, a reminder that embracing the ebb and flow of disruption is the norm in this new reality. The speed of change and the degree of complexity in solving big problems in the new world of business requires a faster regeneration of our innovation DNA. Our ability to manage beginnings and endings, entrances and exits with agili... |

15 Incredible Business Men Who Refused to Retire by Andy Robinson - Dec, 2011 For many who reach the top echelons of business, retirement is a time to enjoy the spoils of a life well lived and years of hard work and perseverance.
