Member You - You're Bright And Talented -- TooT Your Own Horn --
Here's something to think about!One internet source says that employers spend, on average, only 10-15 seconds on each resume and that 82-94% of applicants get rejected at CV stage.So, we (as interviewers) timed ourselves. We spent, on average, 80 seconds on each resume before making an initial decision - Yes or No.Generally we interview no more than 6 people for any one position. Based on the average number of resumes we receiv

Imagine a river. Then visualize all that the river carries with it. Apart from the water and fish, there are other elements which form the river. Processes are very much like a river. They flow in a natural direction and carry information with them from one point to another. The process of Value Stream Mapping is a by product of the Lean Manufacturing process pioneered by Toyota and the core fundamental is to identify the areas of waste which can be avoided within a manufacturi
An important suggestion is to be very careful with whom YOU keep company. Select your MODEL or “confident” carefully. Do not think that everyone has YOUR best interest at heart.
AMBITION GETS NOTICED
Speak UP when the opportunity presents itself. Don’t be afraid to contribute your best. Let others know your desire and expectation to be a contributor of your talents and skills whenever needed.
Consider yourself a valuable asset to your new department or your new boss. Let it be known that you are willing and able to take on a challenge. Move beyond the usual employee with little ambition. Do it with kindness, yet don’t hold back in fear of what others in the department will say or think.
SOME WRONG STEPS
First, move forward with your plan but never RUN OVER your fellow associates. You don’t have to nor will it be in your best interest. There’s an old saying that the “cream” rises to the TOP. It’s automatic. You’ve seen it in your past experiences and it will happen in your new job. Count on it!

The other day I felt fat and flabby. I was having a “fat” day. My stomach felt bigger than normal, and I felt puffy. My legs jiggled and seemed to spread to the corners of the earth when I sat down. I must have eaten too much or exercised too little. I must have been having a hormonal moment. Discipline must have failed me. I felt like my work wasn’t working. I must be losing my focus. Oh no, I’ll never get fit. Why keep trying? But wait! I hadn’t lost focus

To win any game, you must know the rules. Then, you must play by those rules all while improving your skill-set and performance within those boundaries. This is true for every game – sports or otherwise -- we play. In fact, rules are in effect even if we don’t know them – and the consequences can be swift and harsh if we break them.Not so true in the “game” of business.Business is the only game in life where YOU can set the rules. You can structure your business t

You have complete control. Unlike public relations efforts, you have final word in determining where, when and how often your message will appear, how it will look and what it will say. You can target your audience more readily (working mothers, new home purchasers, small truck owners) and aim at very specific geographic areas. You can be consistent through advertising that presents your company's image and sales message over time to build awareness and trust. e usual employee with little ambition.

You could have a second income as an insurance agent with very little startup cost. The basic requirements are a state license and an insurance company to appoint you.A good place to start could be the agent that sold you your current policy, or another insurance agency near your home. In my state of Texas you need a company or agency to sponsor you for your license application. You would then split your sales commissions with the sponsor. (It could be something like 80/
Unfortunately, some new employees get in the “wrong” peer group. Join the wrong “bunch” at the water cooler. Too much gossip. A powder keg of explosives waiting to blow. Not a good place for you. Stay in your corner away from this bad influence.
Every office has the rumor mill. Sharing “secrets” that everyone knows. Talking in hushed tones and looking for trouble. RUN! FAST! NOW!
Associate with those who are focused on the business. Working! Giving a fair return to your employer. Miss the dirt dished out by these folks. Most of it is little more than sour grapes and often deserved by the goof-offs.
DON'T BADMOUTH THE BOSS --
Keep in mind that your BOSS may hold the key to your success. He or She may be your best advocate. Encourager. Cheerleader in your corner. Even if YOU are “smarter” (in your opinion) you are not the boss (yet!)
GROUP SUPPORT
Are you a player? Do you work well with your peers? Can you share the glory and success of a job well done? Is that who you are? “Smart” managers will be aware of how y
