A good career consultant has clarity and works their sox off to give the same to their clients.Rob hangs around when others are talking, always lingers a little after meetings, and just starts talking when people are working. His game is to get people talking whether they want to talk or not.Once people are talking, he jumps in or says something like, 'I could not help hearing what you were talking about.'

Whatever the topic, he has an opinion.His opinion is that things are a Many people are attracted by the idea of giving other people advice and guidance - it brings out the 'people-loving' side of even 'die-hard' human resource and employment management professionals who think they might just retire into that role. DODO FOOD? Just because people you managed in the organization used to listen to you before when you had some control over their lives does not mean that they will pay attention now.

Instead of concentrating on what you are going to say - concentrate on knowing the PURPOSE of your listening to listen for WHO the person is. KARMA Reflect back to the other person something about what they have said or about themselves - this shows the other person that you were really listening. "So what YOU are saying is…" Understanding where people are coming from and what motivates them is a crucial skill in any career consultant. Make developing your patience, listening and empathy skills a life-long goal. Has your working self got integrity? Not just adherence to a code of values but does the WHOLE of you stand up to scrutiny? A building needs integrity to stand tall. If a support pillar is cracked, we say, 'the structure has no integrity'.
