4 ways to help you make hard choices in both work and life
4 ways to help you make hard choices in both work and life4 ways to help you make hard choices in both work and lifeLife isnt always black or white - things happen, people change and sometimes you have to make difficult choices.Heres what to keep in mind.Do something to move forwardDecision coach and travel writer Nell Wulfhart writes in The Muse that you should practice being decisive.If youre chronically indecisive, build that decision-making muscle by starting small. Give yurself 30 seconds to decide what youll have for dinner, what movie to watch, or whether you want to go out tonight. Follow through on that decision. Repeat. Then work up to bigger things. Does this give you anxiety? Ask yourself what the worst-case scenario is if you pick wrong.Think about what would happen as a resultDaniel Jacobs, CEO and co-founder of Avanoo, writes in Fortune about making difficult geschftliches miteinander decisions in Fortune. After writing about a poor cost-saving decision he made in the past, he lists three ways that have since helped him approach challenges when the pressure is on.One of the questions he poses is, Are you willing to live with the consequences of your decision?This might seem like a rhetorical question, but its not. Most hard decisions are made because were either a) running toward expected rewards, or b) running away from expected consequences. Strangely, humans often tend not to consider what happens if the rewards or consequences we expect dont come to pass, he continues.Think about any biasesCatherine Price, author of 101 Places Not to See Before You Die, writes on Oprah.comabout having to choose a paint color with her husband for their new apartment. She goes onto list tips for making decisions, includingthat you should be aware of biases.They can lead smart people to make dumb decisions. For example, we hate to lose more than we like to win, which can result in behavior such as holding on to a tanking stock instead of accepting a loss. We re member vivid examples better than facts, which is why plane crashes stick in our heads more than statistics on air safety. And were susceptible to how information is framed - a cash discount is more appealing than no credit card surcharge. Keeping these biases in mind can help you think clearly.Get some peace and quietElaina Giolando, a nomad and freelance writer, writes in Fortune about how she ultimately turned down a business fellowship and the different ways she arrived at the decision (and others).She writes that when making a big life choice, the first step is to try meditation.For me, this involved 10 days of intense, silent meditation in rural India. But you dont have to travel to the other side of the world for the same effects. Instead, set aside a quiet meditation space where you can listen to your heart. What does it communicate when its not panicked and inundated with other peoples ideas? Temporarily removing yourself from all external stimuli and ideas of who you shou ld be and what you should do allows you to access your own values and take ownership of the direction you want your life to take.

People can guess your name just by looking at your face
People can guess yur personenname just by looking at your facePeople can guess your name just by looking at your faceIts not uncommon to have a hunch about someones name based on their facial features. As it turns out, theres scientific evidence to back up this idea, according to researchin the Journal of Personality and Social Psychologypublished online in February 2017.It all boils down to the face-name matching effect, a way in which, the researchers say, both a social perceiver and a computer are able to accurately match a persons name to his or her face. They found that participants were able to do sosignificantly above chance level and thatcultural associations (stereotypes) about names play a role, and this may be partially because what people thought about the names wasreportedly specific to a participants background.In case you think its just menschenfreundlich bias robots think we look alike too. The researchers found that computer that had been taught to match names to fac es with a learning algorithm, when presented more thana whopping 94,000 pictures of faces, succeeded the majority of the time, nailing between 54% and 64% of its guesses.Who participated in the studyThe researchers carried outeight studies total- six where hundreds of French and Israeli participants matched names to faces (done in varying formats, with each study having different numbers of people) and featuring computer that had been taught a algorithm.But no matter who was participating in the study- human or machine- the participants were shown pictures of faces of people they didnt know, each one accompanied by different names one of which was the persons actual one.What the researchers foundOf all of the findings, here are a few that stood out.As the press release points out, during each study, human participants did better picking the right names (25-40% correct) than doing so randomly (20-25% correct), even when ethnicity, age and other socioeconomic variables were control led for. It also states that when a computer participated during a study, it was 54-64% accurate, compared to50% accurate when doing so randomly, and that the results were culture-specific when humans participated.Study 5 also helped illustrate that people did better than choosing at random. Participants were shown a picture of a man with the choices Jacob, Josef, Nathaniel and Dan. Spoiler his name was Dan- they picked this name 38% of the time compared to the 25% chance level of a random guess.But it works both ways- peoples names sometimes impact their faces,which they hypothesize issomewhat of aDorian Gray Effect, citing prior research.The study found that the face-name match implies that people live up to their given name in their physical identity. The possibility that our name can influence our look, even to a small extent, is intriguing, suggesting the important role of social structuring in general and naming in particular in the complex interaction between the self and s ociety. We are subject to social structuring from the minute we are born, not only by our gender, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status, but also by the simple choice that others make in giving us our name.Lead author Yonat Zwebner, a PhD candidate at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem when the research was carried out, commented on the findings in a statement, showing that stereotypes can play a role.We are familiar with such a process from other stereotypes, like ethnicity and gender where sometimes the stereotypical expectations of others affect who we becomePrior research has shown there are cultural stereotypes attached to names, including how someone should look. For instance, people are more likely to imagine a person named Bob to have a rounder face than a person named Tim. We believe these stereotypes can, over time, affect peoples facial appearance, Zwebner said.We sometimes attribute certain names to people based on cultural stereotypes, but its also possible for our names to impact how we present ourselves.

4 myths about having mentors (and how to overcome them)
4 myths about having mentors (and how to overcome them)4 myths about having mentors (and how to overcome them)Mentors are special people. They take us under their wise, experienced wings and help us make sense of the often-bewildering world of work. Mentors help us to sharpen our skills and smooth out our rough edges. My mentors have helped me discover new strengths, go boldly after bigger goals, and avoid (or bounce back from) some cringe-worthy career missteps. A mentoring relationship is a precious resource, indeed. Are you making the most of yours?In observance ofnational mentoring month, and since it isnt always clear how to make the most of a mentors time and advice, I dipped into the Be Leaderly archive to pull together this list of 11 favorite articles about being mentored. As I compiled the list, I noticed some common themes four common mentoring myths.Like any worthwhile professional development pursuit, being mentored is something you can improve at. If any of these myths resonate for you, click through, read on, and make the most of your mentors investment in you.Myth 1 You cant just flat-out ask a stranger to mentor youMentoring relationships can grow organically if youre lucky. Most of the time, you dont just stumble upon a great mentor. Instead, writes Sabina Nawaz, its up to us to find people we respect and ask for their guidance. But approaching a stranger can be downright daunting. Right now, your inner critic is probably weighing in to add, Why would that awe-inspiring, accomplished, industry rock-star want to help me?To encourage you to make the ask, Nawaz includes a sample example of a persuasive, well-crafted email in inHow to Convince a Strangertobe Your Mentor. As you make your request, Be brief, be gracious, position yourself as a highly-valuable apprentice and as always, keep it classy, writes Alexandra Franzen. InDesperately seeking a mentor?Franzen lays out some additional, valuable advice on what to say (and not to say) as your cou rt your drrream mentor.Myth 2 Your mentor will also act as your sponsorIn the early days of your career, your mentor and sponsor are likely to be the same person, says Carla Harris, Vice Chairman of Wealth Management at Morgan Stanley. (Whats the difference between the two? ?A mentor helps youskill up, whereas a sponsor will help youmove up.)But things get more complicated as you progress beyond entry level, cautions Harris. Having one individual fill both roles is less than iverstndigung im strafverfahren. Why? Well, your sponsor needs to be squarely focused on what youre good at, so they can act as a wholehearted ambassador for your qualifikation and kick down doors on your behalf. That might be difficult if youve revealed your concerns, weaknesses, fears, or mistakes to them in a mentoring conversation. InAsk an Exec Can My Mentor be My Sponsor?Harris describes how to select the best person for each role.Myth 3 Youll eventually run out of things to talk aboutHave conversations wi th your mentor gotten repetitive? Dont write off the relationship too quickly, even if it seems like it may have run its course. Often, its not the relationship thats staleyou just need some fresh material to discuss. InFour Types of Questions To Ask Your MentorI share four categories of questions to prepare ahead of every mentoring conversation that will keep things interesting and valuable for you and your mentor.Want specific examples? Ive listed a bunch in25 Questions to Ask a Mentor. By preparing thoughtfully for each mentoring session, youll avoid the awkwardness of feeling like youre wasting your mentors time and ensure the mentoring relationship remains gratifying for both of you for many years to come.Myth 4 Being mentored is just for newbiesAs we grow in competence and in our careers, setting aside time to be the recipient of a mentors advice can seem like an unnecessary burden. But the complexity of situations we have to deal with grows too, and theres no way to predict when a mentors advice or perspective could be a career game-changer.I am proud and happy to be mentor-rich writes attorney Lyndsay Markley, whose array of mentors includes trial attorney mentors, networking mentors, style mentors, judicial mentors, and rainmaking mentors. We dont have to be at the beginning of our careers to have a mentor, adds Markley inThe Importance of Mentoring How Strong is Your Network?This article first appeared on Be Leaderly.

7 little changes thatll make a big difference with your resume
7 little changes that'll make a big difference with your resume 7 little changes that'll make a big difference with your resume Wondering how to get recruiters to notice your resume and application? Weâre sharing the seven secrets to a more powerful resume.Like it or not, your application to your dream job isnât going straight to the person hiring for the role. Instead, it has to pass through a gatekeeper- typically someone in HR- who is responsible for vetting resumes before passing them along to the very busy hiring manager. This is the speed-dating round: You have only a few seconds to make a good impression or risk getting tossed into the reject pile.If you do make a good impression, a hiring manager will look at your resume like they might an online dating profile. They know exactly what theyâre looking for in a candidate, and a few misused words on your profile (or resume) could cost you your chance at the position. Even though you liked the company enough to send the first message, youâll receive the dreaded âthanks, but no thanksâ email in return that will have you wondering where you went wrong.So how does your resume attract enough attention to get invited on a first date, i.e. interview? Here are seven little changes that will make a big difference on your resume.Remove fluffy, clichéd, generic or obvious statements.âI have excellent communication skills and am a pro multi-tasker.â Even if this statement rings true, itâs also so overused that the hiring manager wonât give it a second thought. Be specific about your skillset; donât just copy terms from resume samples that you think fit you. Chances are, they describe everyone else as well.Remove broad, generic and outdated skillsâI am proficient in Microsoft Office 2007.â Every time you update your resume, take a careful look at your skills listed. Be sure your skills are not too broad (computers), outdated (Office 2007) or generic (phone). Just list skills relevant to the position youâre applying for, and leave the extras out.Put education in its place Do you want to put more emphasis your educati on or your work history? The answer to that question will tell you whether your education belongs at the top or the bottom of your resume. One of the biggest mistakes is prioritizing a newly earned degree, even if youâve worked in that industry for a significant amount of time. Gatekeepers and hiring managers might see your resume, assume youâre a new grad with little experience and move on to the next candidate.Donât take style risksBe bold in your interview, but not on your resume. Italicizing, highlighting or underlining keywords can cause your resume to appear distracting, cluttered and unprofessional. Keep it simple.Show, donât tellDonât just list your accomplishments; rather, show how you exceeded. Which sounds better: âMade $500K in sales in 2014â or âExceeded sales quota by $100K, making $500K in first year salesâ? Sure, $500K in sales seems impressive, but it needs to be put into context- for example, what if your yearly quota was $1M? The second example s hows that you exceeded expectations, making you an asset to any team.Ditch the headlineIf the first thing a gatekeeper or hiring manager sees on your resume is a headline unrelated to the role youâre applying for, you wonât get a second glanceâ"into the reject pile youâll go. If you want them to keep reading, you have two options: Ditch the headline, or change your resume for every role. Option two is clearly the better bet; however, if you donât want to put in the effort, simply remove the title from your resume.Pay attention to locationSome companies donât want to consider an out-of-state candidate for a job opening, as interviews and relocations can be pricy. Some gatekeepers and hiring managers frequently disregard out-of-state candidates because they misinterpret the requirements or details of the position (they didnât see the location, thought it was freelance, etc).If youâre looking to relocate- whether itâs to be closer to a family member or otherwise- be su re to state the reason in your resume and cover letter. This shows that you didnât make a mistake in applying to a job situated halfway across the country, and a gatekeeper and hiring manager wonât be wasting their time by following up with you.

What Employees Say: âMassive Growth. Great team and atmosphere.â - Current Employee Here are 13 pieces of advice that will strengthen your job search and help you get a job that fits your life . 1. Pay attention to your social media presence. Recruiters and hiring managers will be looking at your resume, of course- but they also want to see complementary online content , too, such as your LinkedIn profile and online resume. In fact, one recruiter told Glassdoor she likes to see attachments, project work, videos, or blogs, too. 2. Highlight your transferable skills. You want to show off why youâre right for a particular role. But you also want to make clear why youâre right for any role , weâve heard recruiters say. So, when it comes to your resume and cover letter, focus on the skills and experience you have that would make you an ideal candidate anywhere. Then, in an interview, be ready to share how youâll relay those skills in the new role. And more specifically, use the right words. Applicant tracking systems scan resumes in search of keywords, and throw out any that donât contain them before they have the chance to be seen by human eyes. So how can you game the tech? Itâs easy. Read the job description for the job youâre applying- then see how those words stack up against similar job postings . Words that repeat across multiple listings belong on your resume- preferably at the top, as well as in context. 4. Tell a compelling story in your cover letter. You donât want to simply repeat whatâs on your resume when you write your cover letter . Rather, you want to dig a little deeper, answering questions a potential employer might ask such as: what makes this company your go-to choice, and why is this company special to you? Answer the questions in as much detail as possible to stand out from the crowd. Itâs not enough to run a simple spell check on your resume. Youâll need to employ some special editing tactics - such as reading your resume backward and asking a friend to proofread for you- in order to catch every mistake on the page. Thereâs even editing software specifically for resumes. If you allow an error to sneak in, you are sending the employer an unintended and incorrect message that you are sloppy and donât care about your work. 6. Prepare for an interview before you get it. You wonât be caught off guard by an interview question if youâve studied the common questions asked by recruiters and managers alike. Plus, knowing your responses in advance will keep you cool, calm, and collected during the interview- confidence any employer will be pleased to see. Itâs not enough to slip out of sweatpants and put on something fancy. You have to dress for success and be comfortable in what youâre wearing. If youâre uncomfortable, you might lose some confidence in the interview . But if you look and feel good, your job savvy should easily shine through. An interview doesnât have to be all business. In fact, applicants willing to show their personalities are received better by managers than people who remain tight-lipped during the interview. Thatâs because this manager could become your boss - and he or she wants to make sure you can get along well. Share your personality when answering questions and resist the urge to respond robotically. A recent study found that 86 percent of hiring managers said not sending a thank-you note shows lack of follow-through. So follow-up- and show off your manners- with a handwritten note on nice paper or even in an email. The point is to do it, and do it promptly; the medium doesnât matter as much. In the note, thank your potential employer for his or her time, and be sure to share about something you learned during the interview . Why? Sharing the lesson shows you were paying attention to the employer, and youâre serious about the role. 10. Avoid getting too personal in interviews. Turns out, some of the answers you think are appropriate to share- like your favorite childhood memory when asked question, âTell me about yourselfâ- are actually a turnoff to recruiters, and in some cases, can cost you the job. So just like youâll practice what to say in the interview , you should also research what not to say to a potential employer. 11. Donât talk about money during an initial interview. Bringing up any salary questions during an initial interview- especially a phone interview - is a big no-no, career experts say. Why? Itâs simply not the appropriate time, because you havenât made it far enough into the interview process. So save the money talk for a second or third interview, when itâs clear youâre taking steps toward landing the job. 12. Be proactive during the interview. Rather than allow for the recruiter or hiring manager to ask you all of the questions, be confident and proactive during your time together. Youâve researched the companyâs culture and mission on Glassdoor , and youâre looking for a job that fits your life. Therefore itâs important to dig deeper. If you ask questions about management style, professional development , performances measurements and team collaboration, youâll show a potential employer youâre both an informed candidate and serious about the job. 13. Use social media to brand yourself. Hopefully, you know by now that Facebook statuses that describe wild nights with friends can a turnoff to potential employers. But did you know that you can use social media to build a personal brand , making you more attractive to a hiring manager? One easy way to do just that is to expand from whatâs on your resume- you can post pictures or summaries of projects youâve worked on, include a short bio about your skills, or share articles that show youâre an expert in your industry. The final stage of getting a job is negotiating the package. While compensation often comes to mind first, remember that there are far more facets of the job that you can customize than you think. From benefits to work-from-home options , stock options to a travel stipend, thereâs a lot on the table. Make a list of the things that are most important to you and that youâll need to execute your job well. Be sure to check Know Your Worth to make sure their base salary offer is competitive with the market. Then, speak to your hiring manager and the recruiter about whether those needs can be fulfilled. These days, negotiating is an expected part of the job search process. Ask as many questions as you need and get the answers you need to make the best job decision for you.

8 Things You Have to Research Before Your Job Interview
8 Things You Have to Research Before Your Job Interview 8 Things You Have to Research Before Your Job Interview Did your awesome resume just get you an interview? Well, good for you! Now thatâs when things get serious. Job interviews are not your most pleasant meet-ups but you can nail it and get that job if you know how. For sure, job interview can be really intimidating. Convincing someone of your qualities is a toughie, but if youâre well prepared, thereâs no need to panic. Confidence is the key to your success. Itâs important to go and meet your potential future employer confident and collected. In order to give off that impression, you need to take the time and carefully research a couple of things. So keep calm and read on. Here are 8 things you should definitely know about before your job interview: 1. Know more about the company than others Knowing who the founder and the CEO are, together with a short history and structure of the company that youve read on Wikipedia are the very basics. This is just not enough. You should go deeper than that and demonstrate an in-depth knowledge about the company. Above all, you have to understand the company and show that your personality matches with the company philosophy. If the company is developing a certain product, know as much as possible about it, express your interest in it and know what sets it apart from the competition. You should have knowledge about the companyâs successes and the most important milestones. If the company is active on social media, research their sites, read a couple of their most recent blog posts or read what other people are saying about it. Itâs always good knowing a bit more than others find some fun facts or company stories. This will also help you during the QA session. You might ask the hiring manager about a fact you researched or about a new project the company is working on, etc. Also, if you understand the company, your answers will sound more proficient. 2. Make a thorough research about the job position Knowing the details about the job position also helps you better answer the hiring managerâs questions at job interview. Research thoroughly what are the competencies and duties of the person working on the position youre applying for. Be ready fit your skills and knowledge to the job and tailor your answers so that you appear perfectly suited for the job. By doing the research, youâll also discover whether you are the right person to do the duties that are required for that position. Any duty of the position shouldnât take you by surprise. According to what is required for the position, you can rehearse your answers and prepare how youâre going to address your skills and identify what you know and how you can use this knowledge and skill in the position. 3. Know yourself! It might sound a bit strange but you have to ask yourself this: How are you going to convince the hiring manager about your abilities if youre not 100% sure about what you can and cannot do? Go over your resume once again and be aware of the fact that the recruiter doesnât know you, he or she only has your resume in front of her/himself. Your resume has given the hiring manager a certain picture about you and now you have to live up to his/her expectations. In order to sound convincing, you should create your professional identity and stick to it. Settle on an attitude youâre going to present and which of your skills youâre going to emphasize. 4. Prepare questions and answers Though you cannot predict what theyâre going to ask you, itâs important you come equipped with a number of questions and answers. There are several commonly asked questions, for which you can prepare answers to but they should still come across as unrehearsed and convincing. Even though a job interview is mostly about the recruiter asking questions, most of the recruiters will summon you at some point during the interview to ask them anything you want to know. In case they dont, you still have the right to ask questions. most recruiting experts even think that questions the job candidate asks are sometimes more important that the answers they give to the interviewers questions. For the questions part of your job interview, youâll find our first two points most useful having carefully researched the company and the job position, youâll find it easier to ask additional questions and your questions will also sound more clever and professional. Learn more in our previous blog post on the 20 best questions to ask the hiring manager. 5. Practice your body language You might not believe it, but body language is crucially important during an interview. You should try to look as calm as possible. The body language of a calm person is a whole different than that of a nervous one. There are plenty of online sources dealing with body language. Make a little research and find out what your gestures mean. Use open gestures, leave your arms resting calmly, dont do any overexposed gestures, dont let your nervousness show. You can practice this either in front of the mirror or opposite somebody else, which is even better. Ask your family member or a friend to play the interviewer and you try to answer his or her questions in a way you would in a hot chair. 6. Address your failures in the right way Most hiring managers will try and put you on the spot about your potential incompetences. Some might even try to catch you unawares to see how you react in awkward situations. Addressing your failures or lack of skills is not pleasant, nor easy, but donât worry. You can fight it by preparing for these questions in a right way. They might ask you about your worst personality trait or a thing you think youâre least good at. The magic is to make your failures sound as though theyâre in a way positive. Hereâs an example: âI tend to get impatient when I donât get enough workâ, or: âI hate it when others in my team lag behind with work.â Also, when they ask you about what you think your greatest incompetency is, pick a skill you think youâre good at, but you didnât have a chance to get too deep into. So finish it off by saying something like: âI am still learning and I can tell from my progress I might get considerably good at it.â 7. Know the terminology You should be prepared to use the jargon thatâs used in the industry you want to work in. Using the right terminology will make you look more competent and intelligent. Be specific and speak clearly. It doesnât make a good impression when you twaddle about nothing just to say something. Donât use helper phrases such as like, you know, I mean too often. The recruiter doesnât want you nattering away as though you were talking over a beer. If you want to be better than the rest of the candidates, you should appear professional. So, before your interview, refresh your vocabulary and get familiar with the professional jargon. 8. Be dressed for success You might think that looks is not important but the hiring manager can judge a lot about you based on how you came dressed for the interview. Before your job interview, research what clothing requirements are there in the company youâre interviewing with. A general rule is that you should fit your clothes to the culture of the company. Medium to large companies prefer formal, professional-looking clothes, while some smaller companies donât require it. Avoid being overdressed. Startups, marketing, programming or designer jobs usually donât require formal clothing on interviews. You might even look funny if you knocked on their door in a suit and tie. For corporate, banking, legal, public policy jobs and the like, jeans, sneakers or tees are out of bonds completely. One final tip: Before your interview, take a long beauty sleep and on the big day, leave home half an hour early so youâre not late. Good luck! Share Your Feedback or Ideas in the Comments!

The Top 12 Soft Skills Employers Seek
The Top 12 Soft Skills Employers Seek The Top 12 Soft Skills Employers Seek Depending on the organization or business, employers are seeking essential skills and experience for each job. But even though these skills are extremely important, there are specific âsoft skillsâ that employers also look for when hiring people for their organization. Research has shown that a personâs âsoft skillsâ can be just as good of an indicator of a personâs job performance as the hard skills that they possess. Soft Skills Make a Person Pleasant to Work With and a Valued Member of the Team Soft skills relate to a set of skills that individuals possess, which makes them good employees no matter where they work or what they do. When we think of soft skills, we are thinking of personal qualities, attitudes, verbal and nonverbal behavior, and personal habits that make an individual pleasant to work with, and a valuable member of any team. Individuals with impeccable manners and an ability to be understanding, fair and compassionate are the type of people most of us would like to work with. It is also someone who possesses a strong work ethic and will do what it takes to get the work done, that organizations like to hire and employees want to welcome as a new member of their team. We all know people who we like or love as friends or family; but when it comes to working with that person on a daily basis, our positive feelings may go out the window, and we may find that itâs almost impossible to work alongside them in a job situation. Heres a list of the 12 soft skills that employers look for when hiring. A Positive Attitude A positive attitude can do wonders in turning a department or company around. Having employees who possess a positive attitude can also be contagious; and for employers, itâs important for them to seek that kind of energy since it only takes a few negative people to bring down a department or even the organization as a whole. A Strong Work Ethic Hiring people that possess a strong work ethic is key to the success of any employer. First off, a strong work ethic cannot be taught. When individuals begin working in a new organization, they either have it, or they donât. Many contributing factors go into making a strong work ethic like how a person grows up to the value they place on doing an excellent job. These innate attributes are totally out of the control of an employer no matter what type of training they provide or the type of supervision an employee gets. Excellent Communication and Interpersonal Skills The ability to be a good communicator cannot be overrated. To succeed in the workforce, employees need to know how to communicate as well as listen to work effectively with supervisors, co-workers, and clients. Problem-Solving Skills Since problems are inevitable, employees who can find solutions to daily challenges that arise are most valuable to an organization. Employees who are unable to find a solution to a specific problem but are willing to seek out the advice of others also makes for a competent and trusted employee. Time Management Skills As a results-oriented employee, good time management skills are key to getting assignments accomplished and finishing them on time. Employers benefit from hiring employees with good time management skills because these employees know how to prioritize work that is time sensitive. Flexibility The way companys do business in todayâs competitive marketplace, is changing all the time. It is the ability to remain adaptable that helps an organization move forward and stay with the current times. Work Well in a Team Environment In the past employees would often seek jobs that aligned with their desire to either work independently or work in a team environment. In todayâs workforce, much of the work is often done in teams; but there is also a need for employees to work independently to get the daily work accomplished. Computer/Technological Skills Almost all jobs today require basic computer skills and technological knowledge. Whether it be for record-keeping, spreadsheets, detailed notes, or presentations, employers will want to know a candidateâs level of computer and technological knowledge to establish if they can do the basics of any job. Project Management Skills Individuals going about the daily routine of their job will need to know how to prioritize and plan each activity to be able to get the best job done in the least amount of time. Self-Confidence Self-confident employees can detach themselves personally from any challenges that they experience on the job. Self-confidence gives employees a sense of strength as they pursue their personal goals as well as those of an organization. Ability to Accept Constructive Criticism There is always room for everyone to grow and learn and the employee that can take constructive criticism and use it to improve their performance will be seen as a valuable team member to any organization. Strong Research Skills With strong computer and technological skills being one of the top 12 soft skills employers seek, employees who can do the basic research and have the ability to gather important information for projects, and identify how and what competitors are doing to make themselves successful, is a sought-after skill that many organizations want.

How I am side hustling my way to financial independence
How I am side hustling my way to financial independence How I am side hustling my way to financial independence Iâm side hustling my way to financial independence by selling these temporary tattoos for bachelorette parties on the internet.They are gold, sparkly and say ridiculous things such as âbride tribeâ and âwolf pack.â Women buy them from me on Etsy at an insane markup and usually in packs of 15 or 20. They wear them on their faces and arms when they are out with their girlfriends celebrating the bride-to-be at a Vegas pool party, on the streets of Nashville, or in the clubs of Miami.Follow Ladders on Flipboard!Follow Laddersâ magazines on Flipboard covering Happiness, Productivity, Job Satisfaction, Neuroscience, and more!I also sell printable scavenger hunts for bachelorettes to use on their bar crawls.These products sell at an even better margin. I make a simple checklist one-time and then have hundreds of people download for $7 each. They print them at home and I donât have to do anything after the sale.The only âexpenseâ is my time up front to make the checklist an d the minimal Etsy transaction fees. I much prefer selling the printables because I donât have to worry about shipping or inventory.Iâm on the path to financial independence and I think itâs silly that people will pay so much for throwaway products for one-time events. Originally, I got into this side hustle though because the money was there.And, I didnât even have a bachelorette party for my own wedding.I guess you could call me an entrepreneur now and the crazy thing is that I was never like this before. I went from someone who didnât have the confidence to put myself out there, the type of person who would rather binge watch HGTV on Saturday mornings than work on a project, to a full-fledged side hustler.Last year I made $40,000 on my side hustles on top of my day job. This was not my planned path to financial independence but itâs the quickest way there for me.My Journey to Financial Independence Started In DebtI learned about the concept of financial independence retire early (FIRE) when I was paying down my student loans. My now-husband and I woke up one day and realized that we were over $100,000 in debt.I say we realized it suddenly because before this time we honestly didnât know that debt was that bad. Everyone we knew had student loans, a car payment, and a collection of stuff financed on credit cards.We became super motivated once we realized how bad of a situation we actually were in.We made a series of financial decisions right in a row after this point that was critical to our journey out of debt. I sold my car eliminating a car loan and a nearly $400 monthly car payment. We got engaged and chose a moissanite stone for my ring instead of a diamond (cost of $300 versus thousands). I went to tons of networking events and landed a job in Silicon Valley that required us to move but also came with a big salary boost. We sold nearly $5,000 of our financed furniture on Craigslist and then rented our house out to cover the mortgage. During this time we didnât eat out, said no to plans with friends (ironically I turned down attending a bachelorette party which ruffled some feathers), and we focused 100 percent on paying down our debt.With the increased income and our low expenses, we were able to pay off the debt in under 2 years. When we got married in December 2016, we were 100% debt free.Next, I Tried All of The Fancy FI StrategiesThe next logical step was to try out all of the fancy FI strategies that I had been reading about on the blogs for years but couldnât partake in because 100% of our money was going to debt payoff.I was fortunate enough to have both the income and the employer plan that allowed the Mega Backdoor Roth. I took real pleasure every time I called my 401k plan provider and asked them to roll my after-tax contributions into my Roth IRA. And, I practically giggled with joy when hitting my traditional 401k limit before year-end.The first time I performed a Roth conversion from my Tradit ional IRA to a Roth IRA I was a little nervous but I was digging it in a way that only FIRE nerds would understand.If I had to explain what I was doing to the financial provider, I was a little annoyed but also secretly pumped that I had learned what I thought were the secrets of the financial game.PS â" I screwed up the Roth conversion majorly by not knowing about the pro rata rule. Rookie mistake!But, I still wasnât satisfiedYou would think that I would be content with this phase to FI but I found myself growing a bit impatient. I was working towards the goal of saving 25 times our annual expenses and I felt that even our rapid progress to FI was too slow for me.We loved hiking in Colorado, good coffee, and international travel. We didnât love office lights, 24/7 work schedules, and limited vacation days â" no matter how luckywe were to have our jobs and great coworkers.I also wanted to save even more in tax-advantaged accounts once I hit what I thought was the max. My hu sband wasnât eligible for a 401k and I wanted to contribute on his behalf so we could double max out.I started researching to see what else I could possibly do to sock more money away. That is when I came across the Solo 401k and I made it my goal to create one for my business. I found out I could put away an additional 25% of business profits in tax-advantaged savings.The only problem is that I had no business. I didnât make any money on the side and didnât feel like I had the time or any good ideas to do so.Enter the Side Hustling Path to FII listened to a bunch of podcasts and somehow found the inspiration to give this side hustling thing a go. I had a hobby blog that was about our student loan payoff journey that I decided to monetize.Also, I wrote more strategic, well-organized blog posts such as a step-by-step instruction guide on how we DIYâd our wedding flowers instead of going with a florist, bringing the cost of flowers to less than $400 from $4000.We had a bud get Game of Thrones-themed wedding and I reviewed the different companies and service providers we used and how we saved. These posts were monetized with links to a few products that I had used for the wedding and I received a small commission if anyone purchased them.The hardest part was trying to attract people who were looking for that information to the blog.Many people are afraid of âsellingâ but what I found is if you can attract someone looking for that exact information at the exact time they want it, youâll never have to sell anything because that information is what the person wants right then.And as someone who does not like putting myself out there, I definitely did not want to do any selling at all. Attracting the right person at the right time was a tricky skill to learn though.I experimented with running Pinterest ads and used them to attract budget-inclined brides ready to DIY their weddings to my site. After some costly failures, I found the Pinterest strat egy that worked!The site quickly became profitable for me. I was able to introduce many new readers who came to my site for the wedding information to the concept of financial independence and retiring early as well which is a double win. I now receive emails from people who said the first time they ever found out about financial independence was from my site.The fire is spreading!I also started my side hustling Etsy shop and a podcast about financial independence during this time. On the podcast, weâve interviewed over 150 people about their path to financial independence including Steve! The podcast gave me even more ideas about side hustling and increasing my income as a strategy to FI.In 2017, I was able to achieve my goal of opening up a Solo 401k and saving 25% of my profits.I also contributed to the Solo 401k on behalf of my husband so he could hit his 401k match, after having him work for me on the blog. He is not a FIRE-person by any means but he wrote a post about how he no longer wants to buy a truck that has been a hit with Google traffic. He is happily employed by my site as a very occasional guest writer.Whatâs Next for my Side Hustle?In 2018, my side hustling revenue topped out at $40,000. Although I still work full-time and Iâm a very career motivated person, I do feel great that I have more options on my path to financial independence. I know I donât have to wait until we save 25 times our expenses to try something new or different.Iâm actually much more intrigued by the idea of being an entrepreneur right now than I am about retiring early. It is possible to find fulfilling work that gives my husband and me the time and location freedom we desire. If I didnât like my job so much, we would probably be living the FI lifestyle now while continuing to build passive income or our first company.In August of this year, weâll be having our first child and Iâve heard that changes things. I do feel good that we have a nest egg built up and profitable income streams coming in as we move into this new phase of our lives.This article first appeared on Thinksaveretire.com.

Boost your teams effectiveness with these 7 questions
Boost your team's effectiveness with these 7 questions Boost your team's effectiveness with these 7 questions Whatâs top of mind for you as a leader? If you are like most, itâs how to improve results as quickly as possible. And often, you need to achieve this in spite of fewer resources, including a tighter budget. But hereâs the thing: If your team is not tapping its full potential, it will be a struggle to achieve the expected results and impossible to surpass them.Time is a precious commodity, and where to focus your attention is one of the most important decisions you must make every day. Too often, âteam effectivenessâ is near the bottom of the to-do list - if it even makes the list at all. However, putting your teamâs effectiveness at the top of your to-do list will quickly pay dividends in enhanced results.While improving team performance may sound like a mammoth task, we have discovered through years of research and working with teams that it can be brought down to size by considering seven core behaviors and practices. If you as a leader keep an eye on these and provide support where needed, you and your team will be surprised by what you can achieve.To get a taste of the seven practices and a sense of their strength within your team, ask these seven questions:1. How cohesive is our team?Are team members working in the same direction toward a common goal? Or is time and energy being wasted by team members focusing on tasks and activities that wonât lead them in the right direction? Do team members have a clear and common definition of what constitutes success and the values, roles, and priorities required to get there? When a team lacks cohesion, there is wheel-spinning and poor decision-making, as well as wasted time, energy and resources.Prompt: If you asked your team to list the departmentâs top three priorities, would everyone have the same list?2. How is our teamâs ability to handle change?This requires that your team not only be receptive to change but also be able to implement change and adapt their behaviors and practices as required to move forward.Prompt: When change is on its way, are heels digging in or are sleeves rolled up?3. Is shared leadership the norm in our team?When there is shared leadership, team members are in charge of directing their own work and making decisions related to their tasks as much as possible. The leader seeks input from the right people as needed, and team members seek input from one another.Prompt: If team members are constantly running to the leader to solve problems, this is an area that cries for improvement.4. How are our group work skills?Group work skills refer to the ability to effectively facilitate a meeting, solve problems, make decisions and reach consensus.Prompt: Do people leave meetings with a sense of accomplishment and looking forward to the next one?5. How healthy is our teamâs climate?A healthy climate refers to how team members feel about the way the team functions, including their level of comfort with team norms of behavior. Sometimes considered to be a â softâ issue, this is actually a critical foundation of a healthy, high-performing team. Signs that indicate a teamâs climate is unhealthy include a high degree of unproductive conflict, a lack of trust and respect for one another, low energy, and low morale.Prompt: If members are hesitant to speak up, this is often a sign that the climate needs attention.6. Does our team think innovatively?When a team demonstrates strong innovative thinking, members are on constant alert for better ways to do things and challenge the status quo when old norms hinder their progress.Prompt: If a new idea or better way of doing things hasnât been suggested by a team member in the past week or two, this is an important practice to examine.7. How is the individual contribution of team members?Team membersâ contribution includes the degree to which individual team members take initiative and manage their own individual performance.Prompt: If there is grumbling in the team about members not pulling their weight, this is a practice that requires further discussion.Answering these questions gives you a quick look at these seven nonnegotiable core practices and behaviors. Your teamâs strength in each of these areas determines their degree of success. Simply having the team self-assess and come to an agreement on the required change can begin to strengthen the practices and behaviors. If you become fanatically focused on these by looking for both strengths to celebrate and opportunities for improvement and then provide the support to make those improvements, you will find that you have your foot on the power pedal. As a result, your team will take off.Nicole Bendaly is President of KCo.
