The Fundamentals of Motivation
Have you ever wondered why the people in your team don’t seem as motivated as you do? Or why some people do their jobs with enthusiasm and vigor, and others barely get through the day without taking the frown off their faces?You are not alone. The topic of human motivation has been studied for hundreds of years. So it’s a topic we know a lot about. Unfor

Going Back To School
Fall is on its way and with it comes thoughts of sending the children off to school once more. What about yourself though, have you thought about returning to school and finishing your college degree? Perhaps you feel stuck in a dead-end job and would like a career change. Going back to school can help you take your career to a higher level.Asking questi

After days, weeks, months or longer of interviewing, you have received a job offer that meets your needs and have decided to give notice to your employer and resign your current job.

1. Get your job offer in writing. Having the offer in writing is both your legal protection against an employer should they make an attempt to deceive you with the terms of the offer AND your protection against you having made a mistake in hearing the offer. The letter should include both your new salary and position title within it. Some will provide a benefits summary; most large firms will not provide that until employee orientation during your initial phase of employment with their firm.

2. Meet with your boss for a few minutes and tell them personally and provide a written letter of resignation. “May I get a minute with you uttered on a Friday,” has started more discussions about resignation and sent many employers into unhappy weekends and managers into anxiety attacks about how to replace someone than almost any other question.

3. Give two weeks notice. Sometimes three weeks is the right thing to do, but remember, your new job is waiting for you and if you’ve told them you’ll be there in two weeks, do not adjust your start date to accommodate the job you’re leaving. After all, if you died tomorrow, they would still survive without you.

4. Your letter of resignation should be simple.

Ego Stroking To Influence Others To Get More Of What You Want
I have TWO critically significant questions for you! The same TWO questions that were asked of Six Thousand, Six Hundred people (6,600).1. "Do you receive as much praise, approval, and appreciation on your job as you feel you deserve?"2. "Would you likely perform your job better if you received more praise, approval and appreciation?"The an

Ready, Set, Advertise
Most of us are impatient; we want our advertising to spark an immediate sales increase. That's equivalent to giving a builder one week to construct a three-bedroom home without a blueprint. Think of the planning process as drawing a blueprint for your advertising campaign structure. First you design the framework, next you fill in the details, and

Phone Interview Etiquette: How To Approach A Phone Job Interview
The phone interview is typically used by hiring managers to screen possible job candidates rather than having to invite all of them in for longer face to face interviews.The phone interview is used to then cull the list of potential candidates down to a smaller group of people who meet certain criteria and appear to be suitable for the job.

5. If you are asked for reason you are leaving, do not be hypercritical and answer simply. “I believe that this opportunity will further my career goals,” is acceptable. If you want to go into details, do not discuss any slights that you received. Focus on objective things, rather than on your (emotional) reactions to decisions. You do not need to disclose the name of the firm you are going to work for although there is nothing wrong about doing so.

6. For most people, do not consider accepting a counteroffer. How did you “suddenly” become worth more money? Because your departure inconveniences your employer. As a result, they will have to delay plans or have work assigned to others less capable and will be adversely impacted. For most people, a counteroffer only addresses and corrects the financial failings of their job and does nothing to improve their job.

Resigning well will allow you to complete your final week(s) of employment well and head to your new job with confidence and certainty.

How are you checking the results of changes you have made? Why did you get the success you achieved? Do you know? Why did you not get the results you wished for? Do you know? Do you have the measures and measurement systems in place to help give you the answers?

Branding alone isn’t enough these days, people want experiences, they want magic moments and memories to enrich their lives with. To create these experiential moments requires you to identify and appreciate what creates the magic for your consumer and enhance it at every 'touchpoint.'
