Client Development Why I Focus On The Quality Of Your Effort

Developing the Next Generation of Rainmakers Client Development: Why I focus on the quality of your effort If you are a long time reader, you might recall a post I wrote years ago after meeting the managing partner of a law firm who is about my age. He said: Client development coaching: What’s the value of that. A lawyer either has it or doesn’t. Wow, I had to hold my tongue. I understood why he believed  what he said. Client development came easy to him, He was likeable, enjoyed playing golf and entertaining and he was a very capable litigator. After I had finished coaching the first group of lawyers in his firm, the managing partner thanked me and said I may have changed his mind about lawyers either “having it or not.” I have written about books and articles written by Dr. Heidi Grant Halvorson. A year ago I wrote: Client Development: Change What You Think it Takes to Succeed. Recently I read a very interesting, and thought provoking piece written by Dr. Halvorson, titled:  THE TROUBLE WITH BRIGHT GIRLS. I urge you to read it, especially if you have children. In the article she writes about research on how bright 5th grade girls and boys see a difficult problem. She writes: Researchers have uncovered the reason for this difference in how difficulty is interpreted, and it is simply this: more often than not, bright girls believe that their abilities are innate and unchangeable, while bright boys believe that they can develop ability through effort and practice. She goes on to share that most likely this difference results from the feedback given to girls and boys by their parents. Long before I learned of this study, I wrote Rising Star. Gina, the main character in my book was a composite of several lawyers I had coached. At the beginning of the book she is thinking about quitting her law practice. The year before she had brought in over $1 million in business, most of which came from one client. Since that matter was completed, she is very concerned that she will not be able to duplicate her success and as a result she will let down the partners who supported her promotion. If you get a chance to read the book, which is available as a hard copy and also available in a Kindle , Nook or iTunes edition, you will see that Gina bought into the idea that her abilities were innate and unchangeable. I have coached many lawyers whose parents must have given feedback based on their effort. A hardworking young woman lawyer I coach, recently wrote something very nice about me. She wrote: Cordell thinks outside of the box and makes everyone believe they can push themselves to achieve their potential â€" and in doing so makes people shed their limitations, excuses and unhelpful habits â€" and think in a bigger picture context. Cordell gives people power, and that is unique. When you read what she wrote, don’t think about me. Instead, think about her. I can only push lawyers to achieve their potential if the lawyers believe they can develop their ability through effort and practice. I can’t “make” lawyers shed their limitations, excuses and unhelpful habitsâ€"and think in a bigger picture context. More accurately, I facilitate those things, but I can only do it with lawyers who believe they can develop their ability through effort and practice. When I coach lawyers, I frequently ask: On a scale of 1-10 how would you rate your client development efforts? It turns out that 7 seems to be the most often chosen rating. I am not sure why, but I don’t believe it is because 7 was Micky Mantle’s number. After going over what the lawyer is doing well, I ask: What would it take to get you to a 10? If we have never worked together, I ask you the same two questions. Your answers will help you become more successful.   I practiced law for 37 years developing a national construction law practice representing some of the top highway and transportation construction contractors in the US.

Piboidmo Day 24 While Youre Tucking Stuffing Into Your Turkey, Shutta Crums Tucking The Reader Into Her Story

by Shutta Crum PiBoIdMo is about beginningsâ€"first ideas, first notes, and then, hopefully, first drafts from the exciting tidbits we’ve jotted down during the month. While thinking about beginnings I remembered one of my first writing classes: high school journalism. I don’t remember much from the class except that a good lead should always include the answers to four important questions: the 4 Ws. These are: who, what, where, and when. After a good lead, we were taught the story could move on into the details of how, or why. Good leads are something that the news reader doesn’t really notice, but are crucial to keeping the reader’s attention. They quickly dispense with niggly concerns and important facts so the reader can settle into the story. It is a technique every picture book writer ought to know. Answering those four questions right up front in any story tucks the reader in. However, as with many aspects of writing the picture book, the writer for the very young has to do it faster, with fewer words, and sometimes in verse! Better than hearing this from meâ€"and more funâ€"is studying how some of our best picture book writers, and illustrators, do it. Below are some of my favorite examples, in prose and in verse. (Prose) Rosemary Wells, from MAX’S CHOCOLATE CHICKEN.   “One morning somebody put a chocolate chicken in the birdbath.” Let’s parse this opening line. When: one morning. Who: somebody. (We also see a picture of that somebodyâ€"Poppa?) What: put a chocolate chicken. Where: in the birdbath. (And what a great hook for a young child! Why would someone do that?) (Verse) Karma Wilson, from BEAR SNORES ON.    â€œIn a cave in the woods in his deep, dark lair, through the long, cold winter sleeps a great brown bear.” Where: in a cave in the woods in a deep dark lair. When: through the long cold winter. What: sleeps. Who: a great brown bear. (And she did all this with perfect meter! Note: be sure to read Karma’s earlier post, on Nov. 2nd.) Of course, we are blessed by the illustrations in our picture books. In addition to everything else they do so well, the art carries a great deal of this initial informational load. If the setting is a farm, we see that and it may not be mentioned at all in the text. If it is nighttime, or winter, or the main character is a bear . . . these may, also, not be directly mentioned. If it is not said in the text, it is then incumbent on the illustrator to add that context. Look at Jane Yolen’s Caldecott-winning book, illustrated by John Schoenherr. (Free verse) Jane Yolen, from OWL MOON.   “It was late one winter night, long past my bedtime, when Pa and I went owling.”  When: late one winter night, long past my bedtime. Who: Pa and I. What: went owling. There is no mention of where . . . that is covered by the beautiful farm scene in the illustration. Occasionally, leaving out more than one of these details may actually enhance the story by focusing the reader’s attention on another detail that may be of more importance. For example, study Jon Klassen’s new book I WANT MY HAT BACK. There is no where indicated (except for a few rocks and sprigs of grass). Nor, even a when. Who and what are of prime importance. (Who: I. What: Want my hat back.) Against almost completely blank pages readers really notice those eyes on the bear and the rabbit. The facial expressions are subtle, yet so important for understanding the story.   In an intensely illustrated background, the significance of those looks might get lost. We assume it is some place where there are bears and rabbits and other animals. And the when is unimportant. As in all things, once you know the rules you also know when it may be best to break them. (Prose) Jon Klassen. From I WANT MY HAT BACK. “My hat is gone. I want it back.” So study first lines for how good writers quickly dispense with the basic questions any reader has about the world of the story. Then once you’ve tucked your readers in, you can lead them on to discover the answers to those other two important questions: how the story unfolds and why. Shutta Crum is the author of twelve picture books, two novels and two forthcoming picture books. Her latest picture book MINE! (Alfred A. Knopf, 2011) was just named an SLJ Best Book of the Year. THUNDER-BOOMER! (Clarion, 2009) was named an ALA and Smithsonian Magazine notable book. For more info, including teaching guides, visit shutta.com.

Keeping Your Refrigerator Employees from Spoiling - Workology

Keeping Your Refrigerator Employees from Spoiling Keeping Your Refrigerator Employees from Spoiling Because we see things so often, we see them less and less.     Joseph B. Wirthlin I have a friend with a son who plays football. I like football. Thats not to say I totally understand all the rules of the game but nonetheless I do enjoy watching it. When I watch it, I follow the ball because thats where the action is. Keeping Your Refrigerator Employees from Spoiling My friends son is one who tacklesI have no idea what his actual position is called. Given I was at the game to watch him, I didnt follow the ball and instead, I watched him. He tackleshe doesnt do anything fancyhe just tackles. He does his job and because of it, his quarterback has a few extra seconds to do his job. This got me thinking about what I have always called refrigerator employees. I coined this phrase many years ago when I realized that the majority of my workforce were plugged in and doing their jobs they werent disengaged but they werent high energy champions either. These employees werent sexy like a Viking Stove and they werent finicky or otherwise a pain in my butt like my overpriced blender or my garbage disposal.   But damn if they didnt figuratively keep the food cold day in and day out and, likewise, I grew to depend on them doing just that. Truth be told, I took them for granted. Figuratively speaking, I failed to recognize that I could cook just fine without a fancy stove and the sky wouldnt fall if my blender or garbage disposal went belly up. At the time, I was a typical supervisor; I spent 80% of my supervisory time on 20% of my workforce. That 20% included giving attention to my poor performers and my top performers. My regular performers (my refrigerators)  were, for the most part, ignored. Thankfully, I had a great mentor who pointed this out to me one day. I had, in jest, referred to one of my employees as a great refrigerator, which of course needed an explanation. My mentor, ever the philosopher, engaged me in a conversation about food, spoilage and the expense of replacing major appliances. Afterwards, I realized I needed to change my behavior and, moreover, change my paradigm. Employees who do their job consistently, employees who keep their head (and subsequent drama) down and focus on their work, and employees who are, for the most part, low maintenance, deserve my attention and recognition as much, if not more so, than my sexy rock stars or my finicky or problematic employees. How else was I going to keep my refrigerators plugged in?   If I didnt perform regular maintenance in the form of feedback and recognition, I would  risk  burning them out or disengaging them for good. My friends son was put on that line to tackle, and tackle is what he does. I dont know if he longs to be a receiver, if he longs to be on the defensive line so he can sack the quarterback, or if he dreams of starring in the sequel to The Blind Side. However, I know this: he enjoys the game. He practices and works out to make himself stronger so he can tackle better.   Call him a refrigerator player, call him what you must, but his team needs more players like him, as do we.

Feeling all cosseted, thriving in thefreedom of the consultant, I walk around the day where I should charge full steam ahead.But of course would it be advisable for me to? In the event that Im in charge of my decisions and how Ispend my time, at that point possibly Im making the best decision by that simple section into the day. All things considered, what precisely is it that Im attempting to be roused to do? What might Steve Jobs, who achieved such a great amount in so brief period, say?These uplifting statements may make you consider advancement, life change, thoughts for how to remain hungry or how to stress less over how others think you:1. My prefe rred things in life dont cost any cash. Its truly evident that the most valuable asset we as a whole have is time.The more seasoned you get, the more this statement is valid. Disapprove of individuals who channel you; no to ventures that are better done by another person; yes to a long stroll in the recreation center; yes to seeing your friends.Saying nomeans that I have more opportunity to concentrate on whats extremely significant throughout everyday life. For me, that is focusing on advertising and business improvement and advancement. It very well may be debilitating since you seldom observe quick outcomes, and getting therecognition you deservecan be a long game. In any case, Steve had this nailed, perceiving that it is the hounded consistency, in any event, when feeling miserable, that issues in all extraordinary endeavors.2. Im persuaded that about portion of what isolates effective business people from the non-fruitful ones is unadulterated perseverance.So, I attempt once mo re. What's more, again the following day. Every so often there are little successes, occasionally somewhat bigger ones, and for what feels like extended lengths, not a single successes at all and none to be found. I wonder if Im reallyaccomplishing anything, gaining ground, building something progressively beneficial, increasingly supportable, and bigger than the one little exertion I made that day. I cannot see it. I cannot know it. Im not sure.3. You cannot come to an obvious conclusion looking forward; you can just interface them looking in reverse. So you need to believe that the specks will by one way or another interface in your future. You need to trust in something your gut, predetermination, life, karma, whatever. This methodology has never allowed me to down, and it has had a significant effect in my life.Maybe I misread the little spots, not seeing them for the bigger example they speak to. The first bulletin to previous customers results in quite a while that are contact ing, confirmed, empowering. Individuals who need to reconnect, who reference my validity, reliability and scholarly capital. They advise me that the work Ive accomplished throughout the previous 20 years has had an effect and left an enduring impression. What's more, their acknowledgment shouldnt be portrayed as a dab by any means, however perhaps as an indication of an undeniably long series of achievements, one globule stacked upon the other.4. Your work is going to fill a huge piece of your life, and the best way to be genuinely fulfilled is to do what you accept is extraordinary work. What's more, the best way to accomplish incredible work is to cherish what you do. In the event that you havent discovered it yet, continue looking. Dont settle. Likewise with all issues of the heart, youll know when you discover it.Jobs knew extraordinary disappointment he didnt finish school, he was terminated from Apple. However he had that enchantment mix of impulses and conviction that I need only a tad bit of. However, luckily I can thus can you. In the event that you ever feel discouraged,needing motivation, or a turn in the little of your back pushing you forward, invest some energy with Steve. For one who appeared to take off above every one of us, he was consistently the most human among us.5. That has been one of my mantrasfocus and effortlessness. Straightforward can be more earnestly than complex; you need to make a solid effort to get your intuition clean to make it simple.In a world that is progressively changing at a quick pace, interconnected and worldwide there are day by day difficulties to keeping our reasoning clear and centered. However, Steve Jobs brings up that it is most likely one of his key convictions and consequently its value putting resources into the way that you consider yourself, the world and your work.6. Inventiveness is simply interfacing things. At the point when you ask innovative individuals how they accomplished something, they feel so mewhat regretful on the grounds that they didnt truly do it, they just observed something. It appeared glaringly evident to them sooner or later. That is on the grounds that they had the option to associate encounters theyve had and incorporate new things.While Steve Jobs is obviously a man with a mind boggling total assets, many individuals ascribe his prosperity to his innovativeness, specifically and his capacity to construct a group around him that united imaginative thoughts and productized them.Theres nothing amiss with knowledge and experience yet there is additionally an advantage to keeping up a specific degree of naivete. It can profit you a colossal sum not to give an excessive amount of consideration to what the specialists state, sometimes.8. Youve got the chance to get a new line of work you love.When Steve Jobs gave his initiation discourse at Stanford University in 2005, he motivated a class of graduates to consider accomplishing work that filled them with vitality, so as to discover individual satisfaction and achievement. One of his most important statements was tied in with looking for some kind of employment that you are enthusiastic about.9. Be a measuring stick of value. A few people arent used to a situation where greatness is expected.Steve Jobs is unbelievable for his tender loving care and his promise to compulsiveness. Here and there this got him in a tough situation with his partners or gave him a notoriety for somebody hard to work with. Yet, the aftereffects of his lifes work and item and friends are a demonstration of the results when there is an aggregate duty to quality from those in your group at work - or on the off chance that you work separately, to your own success.10. In the event that you havent discovered it yet, continue looking. Dont settle. Similarly as with all issues of the heart, youll know when you discover it. What's more, similar to any incredible relationship, it just shows signs of improvement and better as t he years move on.Often times, discovering a person or thing we love doesnt simply fall into our laps. It can take long stretches of experimentation before we discover something at the crossing point of our energy and gifts and reason. Dont surrender on the off chance that you dont locate this sweet spot right away.11. Things dont need to change the world to be important.Being to set an interior indicator for what is essential to you is as significant as whether others might suspect what you do or are taking a shot at is significant. Be consistent with your internal compass and have faith in what is of worth and significance to you. In the event that this is your work, fine. Yet, your own life and other social issues can be profoundly imperative to some of us.12. Recollecting that you are going to kick the bucket is the most ideal way I know to stay away from the snare of reasoning you have something to lose. You are now bare. There is no explanation not to follow your heart.Whether you are considering making an actual existence change or a lifelong change, once in a while do individuals go into those choices feeling like the decision is simple. Steve Jobs quote about recollecting our mortality is a useful method of reframing our decisions and our emotions. At last, we dont anythingto our graves with us than our decisions.The iPhone is, obviously, a standout amongst other known item victories made by Apple and in no little part was this because of the plan of the telephone. The usability is something clear to little kids and Steve Jobs realized that structure was an indispensable piece of how an item functions. In the event that your work includes making something - even a help - there is an exercise to be taken from this attention on the significance of design.14. Being the most extravagant man in the burial ground doesnt matter to me. Hitting the hay around evening time saying weve accomplished something brilliant, that is the thing that issues to me.One pond ers whether Steve Jobs had a feeling of his inauspicious future demise when he expressed these words. This paramount statement is a decent suggestion to concentrate on what is significant and has durable incentive in life.15. The individuals who are sufficiently insane to figure they can change the world are the ones who do.If you are somebody who faces a great deal of naysayers or shock that you are taking the way less taken or settling on a choice that looks more dangerous than the ordinary methodology, it may assist with recalling that there is a pre-imperative outlook to doing what appears to be brassy. What's more, now and again, by and large, it doesnt look so insane after all.16.People think center methods saying yes to the thing youve got the chance to concentrate on. It implies disapproving of the hundred other smart thoughts that there are. You need to pick carefully.This Steve Jobs quote is identified with the previous statement about the trouble of making effortlessness. Life is uproarious and there are many contending requests on our consideration and time. Being engaged can mean being restricted however it is additionally a prerequisite now and again to accomplishing the concentration and order you requirement for success.17. We dont get an opportunity to do that numerous things, and everybody ought to be extremely amazing. Since this is our life. Life is brief, and afterward incredible, know? Furthermore, weve all picked to do this with our lives. So it should be damn acceptable. It should be worth it.Sometimes it appears that a significant number of Steve Jobs cites are about death however it might be the other side of the coin that he was generally so centered around how to live completely, and accomplish such a great amount in a brief timeframe. Passing puts a system and viewpoint - and without a doubt, a period limit - on our time on Earth so here and there it is nothing unexpected that he is continually mindful of the ticking clock and cuto ff time that pressures us into taking a potentially rash action at choices.18. Some of the time lifes going to hit you in the head with a block. Dont lose confidence. Im persuaded that the main thing that propped me up was that I cherished what I did.In entirety, there are times when it pays to channel your inward Steve. Invest energy in whats significant. Continue on and dont fixate on foreseeing the future wh

This Elon Musk Philosophy Will Forever Change Your Hiring Process

This Elon Musk Philosophy Will Forever Change Your Hiring Process Anybody at Tesla can, and should, email/converse with any other individual as indicated by what they believe is the quickest method to take care of an issue to serve the entire organization. Very rich person business visionary Elon Musk as of late expressed these correspondence desires in an inside and out email to workers. Subsequent to clarifying that there ought to be no various leveled chain of correspondence, he proceeded to clarify why. We are all in a comparable situation. Continuously see yourself as working to benefit the organization and never your dept. he composed. Musk's interest for open progression of correspondence between all workers isn't simply over the development of data. Rather, his correspondence reasoning is a call for genuine cooperation all through all of Tesla for the advancement of Tesla. By applying this way of thinking to the employing procedure, HR masters can improve the nature of recruits and the competitor experience. With solid joint effort, they can likewise quit sitting around idly and losing the effect of messages by siloing data among offices and representatives. Here's the manner by which Musk's correspondence theory will expand coordinated effort and improve your recruiting technique: Social fit gets taken up an indent Social fit is a far reaching issue. Along these lines, it ought to be drawn closer in a group and bound together way. Keep in mind, we are all in almost the same situation. Tragically, numerous HR geniuses trickle data through divisions. They converse with division directors about their social fit requirements for a position, at that point supervisors address their staff, and the data is channeled back around to the leaders. This postpones the progression of correspondence and reduces the effect of the messages handed-off. Try not to let significant social fit data up to the organization grapevine. #hiringprocess Snap To Tweet In any case, by venturing outside of departmental lines and straightforwardly imparting social fit needs, the whole workforce can legitimately concentrate on improving the organization with better recruits. Drop the go between. Go legitimately to current workers to talk about social fit. Ask them what convictions, mentalities, and characters exceed expectations as a major aspect of their group and what a perfect competitor resembles. Urge them to talk about their own encounters. Did they quickly feel like they had a place in the group? Of representatives they've seen leave, was it due to poor social fit? When you have a more clear picture, bring coordinated effort much more profound into your employing technique. Acquire workers on interviews so they can survey an applicant's social fit firsthand. New ability pipelines are aired out At the point when data is free-streaming among workers and the HR division, representatives feel progressively associated with the recruiting procedure. They'll feel trusted and realize their suppositions are significant when HR geniuses come to them for data. This security is urgent for the accomplishment of your recruiting system. This is particularly evident with regards to finding and sustaining those significant new ability pipelines. Furthermore, in case you're similar to most organizations, this is a significant need. Indeed, in my group's most recent report, 2018 Growth Hiring Trends in the United States, 67 percent of the quickest developing organizations noted finding new ability pools as their most elevated need in 2018. Concentrating on finding new ability pools turns out to be exponentially simpler when you're working together with your group. At the point when representatives feel esteemed, they'll be progressively open and ready to share referrals. This makes an expanded progression of new and great ability conveyed straightforwardly to you. Competitors quickly feel invited Incorporation and having a place aren't significant factors only for recently recruited employees and current workers any longer. Selection representatives and HR experts are currently making them a top concentration in their recruiting systems. Over portion of organizations in LinkedIn's Global Recruiting Trends 2018 state they're very or incredibly centered around both. Very close correspondences with the entirety of your representatives will radiate through in all aspects of the recruiting procedure. The more competitors see and cooperate with your present representatives, the more they'll feel invited at an opportune time simultaneously. Solid inward interchanges will radiate through in your #hiringprocess. Snap To Tweet On the off chance that representatives are as of now remembered for interviews, urge them to open up and examine their job, what they love about it, and in any event, something individual about themselves. On the off chance that acquiring workers on interviews isn't conceivable, ask a couple of representatives from every division to make selfie-tributes. These customized recordings will flaunt your group's way of life and friends climate, helping competitors make a prompt association. How would you work together with all the representatives at your organization? Tell us!

How to Write a Killer Contractor CV

How to Write a Killer Contractor CV This article is sponsored by Nixon Williams, specialist accountants to  contractors, freelancers, consultants and interim professionals throughout the UK. As a professional you have probably written and re-written a CV (curriculum vitae) more times than you can count, but re-writing your CV for contracting purposes is a little different. A basic CV usually includes an introduction about yourself, your education and previous experience, with a small statement about your references. This typical way of writing a CV is perfectly fine when applying for permanent jobs, but as a contractor you are likely to need a bit more of an edge, so as to beat the competition. A common way of finding a contract is through recruitment agencies or existing business contacts, but whatever method you choose you will be competing against other contractors for the position. So what can you do to stand out? The first steps. Firstly, make sure that your best skills are prominently featured at the top of your CV; this could be in an effective but concise summary. Most recruiters make up their mind about a CV in seconds, so it is essential that it catches their attention. You want to ensure that the message you are communicating is clear, concise and to the point. No one wants to read sentence after sentence of padding information. Previous work structure. Before we go any further, you need to be able to tailor and adjust your CV to suit the company you are applying for a contract with. A generic one-version copy of your CV won’t portray a tailored feel when reading, and by doing this you may be discarded for the position in mind. Wherever applicable you should try and include either the name of the company, the position and the department; this can be time consuming however, it could help you secure the contract. Your most recent contract positions should have the greatest emphasis, including the dates of contract length; and a little tip is to not state ‘to present’ when mentioning the length of your previous contractors.  Most hirers are looking for someone who can start immediately and stating when you completed your last contract or a predicted completion date will show the recruiters your availability. Another tip is, to ensure that older contracts are summarised as opposed to containing too much detail, this will save document space, as most do not need an extensive description. I’m new to contracting â€" What should I include? You may be asking yourself, ‘I’m new to contracting and don’t have any previous contracting experience, so what can I include?’ Just because you have yet to gain contracting experience, does not mean that your CV has to be a skeleton; there are ways of communicating your skills, through other means than your non-existing contracting experience. Clearly state the previous permanent jobs you’ve had, but instead of compiling a description of what you did, include the skills that your permanent positions have given you, which make you a viable contractor. Identifying what makes you a valued contractor should allow for a smoother transition from permanent to contracting. The importance of structure. In order to ensure that you are not mistaken for having separate employment positions, for each contract state your limited company as your employer, which will allow you to show your previous contracts as external consultancy work. The structure of you CV should include: Career overview Specialist skills Qualifications Education As a contractor you are not advertising yourself in a ‘here’s what I’ve done’ way, but more in a ‘here’s what I can offer’ way. It is more likely that you’ll win contracts if you outline exactly what you can provide for the position. The recruiter will be looking for exactly what skills you can contribute to their project, and although your past experience and achievements are relevant, it doesn’t help them with the current project at hand. Grammar, grammar and more grammar! A simple thing, which more people than you’d expect forget to do, is proof read. Spelling and grammar is key when writing a CV, these fundamentals if not done correctly can place you in the ‘No’ pile. Just think, would you hire someone if there were spelling and grammar mistakes? Correct formatting, layout, legibility and presentation are other key components to a killer CV. Putting your mark on it. Whilst including a portrait of yourself is frowned upon, there is another way for the hirer to get to know you a little more. Including a QR code on the top corner of your CV, which links to a professional web page or a LinkedIn page will portray an innovative edge. Even if you are unfortunate in obtaining the contract, they may wish to connect with you on LinkedIn, which will help build your network. The final preparations Most people miss out this step and give it a once over just to be done with it, however you should always, always get your CV checked by someone else. They may be able to pick up grammatical, formatting and even spelling errors that you have missed. Having a fresh pair of eyes can be a revelation on a piece of written work, as you yourself have become too familiar with it, which could result in missed fundamental errors. By skipping this step you are leaving yourself to be open to scrutiny through such errors, which could affect the chances of your CV being discarded for the position in mind. Following these simple steps will ensure that your CV stands out from the rest, and could land you that dream contract. Author: Rachel Smith is a technical writer for Nixon Williams.

So You Want To Sue Your Boss...

So You Want To Sue Your Boss... These days, employees have more power over their higher-ups than ever before. If you’re the victim of discrimination, whistleblower retaliation, sexual harassment, or any other kind of offense that your boss can commit, there are now many resources and organizations you can use to take legal action against an employer. If you’ve decided you want to get even with your boss over something, then you need to make sure you go about it the right way. Here are a few pointers for mounting a lawsuit against your employer. Documentation First of all, write your complaints down rather than simply bringing them to your superiors verbally. When their rights have been breached, a lot of people think the best thing to do is to complain, report things or request them orally to the highest echelons of their business. In an ideal world, you’d be able to call HR and tell them about some discrimination you’ve been experiencing, and they’d take action. Or you’d notice a hazard you’re being exposed to, tell your supervisor about it, and they’d get right on it. If they don’t follow it up like they should, however, there’s a fair chance that they’ll deny that you ever talked to them about it when it comes up in later legal proceedings. This might sound a little hard to believe, but it happens all the time. However, you can avoid this kind of gray area by sticking to emails and letters rather than phones and in-person conversations. Find The Right Lawyer Next, once you’re 100% certain that you’re going to go ahead with this legal action, make sure you find the right lawyer for the job. Employment law is a very broad niche, and you’ll obviously want an attorney that’s going to get the job done. One of the most important factors you need to consider is how experienced the law firm is with your specific type of case. You’d call Madeksho Law for a benzene attorney, and McKinney for a lawyer specializing in sexual harassment. Once you’ve established that they know what they’re doing, your next step should be to do a little research into the attorney’s performance. How many cases have they won and lost? What has the general experience of their clients been? Unless your side of the case is absolutely irrefutable, the attorney you choose to represent you will make all the difference. Stay Calm Finally, keep a cool head. Obviously, this is a lot easier said than done. You’ve been treated scandalously by your employers and managers for far too long, and now that you’re trying to do something about it you’re finding all kinds of obstacles and complications in your way. As frustrating as your position may be, getting angry will only make it harder for you to get even at a later date. Emotions need to be kept out of the courtroom as much as possible. If it surfaces that you called your boss and screamed a furious rant down the phone at them, it can really hurt the strength of your case. Take a deep breath, keep your eyes on the end goal, and try to look at the situation as objectively as possible. Image credits. Main.   Shake.

Polish off your Christmas shopping this Black Friday

Polish off your Christmas shopping this Black  Friday Black Friday and Cyber Monday may excite you at the thought of cheap brands, or fill you with dread at the thought of queues and scrums. However, you can’t deny that this week of deals gives you the chance to grab some great bargains that will impress your friends and family at Christmas. Just don’t tell them you got their gift cut-price! Whether you’re after a gadget for your brother or a scarf for your granny, most of the big names in UK retail are now in on the sensation that is Black Friday. So get that Christmas list written and check the internet for deal leaks in the build up to this year’s events. Black Friday falls on Friday 27th November 2015, though the sales will kick off from the start of the week both online and in store. Cyber Monday is traditionally the Monday after this date 30th November â€" and is when you can find bargains in online sales. Sites such as Black Friday UK give information on retailers who are participating as well as live updates of the deals they’re offering. Check them out or do your own research in the run up to make sure you are at the front of the queue. It was Amazon who first introduced the UK to the American concept of Black Friday in 2010 and they’re sure to be one of the prime sites (pun intended!) for deals this year. The retail giant will kick off its week of ‘lightning deals’ as the clock strikes midnight on Monday 23rd November. Expect money off Christmas wish-list favourites, which last year included the Kindle Fire HDX 7” and the Dolce Gusto Mini Me Coffee Capsule Machine. Tech is one of the most discounted areas over the Black Friday period. With GAME selling PS4 bundles, such as the console with Grand Theft Auto V plus The Last of Us Remastered and Destiny + Vanguard and a 12 month’s subscription to PlayStation for only £399.99, it’s no wonder 3,600 consoles were sold each hour during their 2014 Black Friday deals. Apple products are always a popular gift choice, but the company last year decided they wouldn’t be offering any incentives to shop on Black Friday. If you’re set on an i-product then keep checking their site, as they may change their mind for 2015. If not, there are plenty of places to get Apple products elsewhere. Last year, John Lewis discounted the iPad Mini by £50 and the iMac and Macbook computers by £100. Big department stores, clothing and homeware retailers â€" in fact, almost anyone big on the high street â€" now also have their hand in. For example, Boots last year had £150 off the £250 Philips Sonicare DiamondClean Black Rechargeable Toothbrush. Some of the best clothing and footwear brands to checkout with include Joules, Clarks, Jack Wills, JD Sports and Ted Baker. If you can get queuing at the door early enough or are nimble on a keyboard then the big department stores John Lewis, MS, House of Fraser and Debenhams could be a one-stop-shop for your entire Christmas list. Black Friday means that there’s no excuse for late Christmas shopping. You could have it all, quite literally, wrapped up before December. One tip:   if you’re buying online, check the viagra delivery date to make sure it’ll be with you in time for Christmas. Image credit: Stephen Butler

Are You Prepared for a Job Interview - Personal Branding Blog - Stand Out In Your Career

Are You Prepared for a Job Interview - Personal Branding Blog - Stand Out In Your Career It doesn’t matter whether you’re a recent college graduate, a systems analyst, or a high-level executive with an annual income of several million dollars. What all people have in common is the need to know how to prepare for a job interview. The reason is that the job interview is nothing less than a contest, whose rules are well-known to participants. There is only one winner, and all the rest are losers. Sorry, this is not the Olympics, where there are indeed three winners. Meeting for the first time Before I meet with a new client for the first time, I ask the person to forward to me a résumé and job description of the position the client is interviewing for. I study both documents thoroughly so that we won’t waste time on that while we’re together. For the first session, I ask my clients to come to my office dressed as if the meeting were a real job interview. It gives them an opportunity to hear an unbiased evaluation of the impression they’d make when meeting someone for the first time. Nobody else can do that: not a spouse, another family member, or a friend. My comments are professional, friendly, and very honest. They give clients the chance to make adjustments before the real and coveted interview, if needed. Next, with my client’s permission, I videotape the client for about 90 seconds while I ask three common interview questions. Subsequently, with the speaker on mute and while watching the recording, I voice my opinion almost unedited to share with my client the impression the client made while interviewing on camera. This part is very important, because the first impression is the lasting one, and it’s difficult to change itâ€"especially after the damage has already been done. Practicing mock interviewing All of my coaching sessions last three hours at minimum. Before we start working together, I need to fully understand the person’s specific, individual circumstances. Listening to my clients’ stories takes time, but those stories are very valuable, and the time invested is well spent; I don’t watch the clock like a doctor who needs to see three patients an hour. Then we start practicing mock interviewing. We start with “Tell me about yourself,” “What are your strengths and weaknesses,” “Why do you want to work for us,” and “What do you know about us.” We then go on to more-difficult questions such as “Aren’t you overqualified [or underqualified],” “Why are you having such a lengthy job search,” and so on. We practice answers for these for about two hours. The value I provide my clients lies in explaining what’s actually behind the asked question. In other words, what is the interviewer really looking for, and what is he testing the candidate for by means of these questions. Asking interview questions is easy. Understanding what’s being tested is harder, but once understood, the answer is no longer difficult to produce. Remember that practice makes perfect.
