18 quotes that (if applied) will make you mora successful18 quotes that (if applied) will make you more successfulSuccess isnt what you have, what youve accomplished, or who you are.Being successful means that you are continually pushing new boundaries internally and externally. Youre never allowing yourself to get stuck. You never give up nor give in. You continually live life how you genuinely believe you should, regardless of what other people say and regardless of what has happened to you in the past.Of the few who succeed, far fewer maintain success. By even living congruently and courageously for a short period of time (were talking a few years), youll quickly stand-out. Youll quickly become an outlier.And this is where things get really confusing. The remainder of this article provides deeply insightful quotes explaining why few people who become successful stay successful.Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a mans character, give him power. - Abraham LincolnYou get in life what youre willing to tolerate. Most people are fine tolerating pain and uncertainty. The world is filled with people with suppressed trauma, negative relationships, and buried dreams.Adversity is common, and can be endured. Having power and success is elend common and is rarely endured. Usually, the moment someone has some form of power, their ego inflates. They begin to exercise their authority for their own benefit rather than the benefit of those they should be serving.He became so powerful the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. - Chancellor PalpatineWhen most people find themselves in a position of power, their motivation shifts from offense to defense. They over-attach themselves to their identity and success. Their sole motivation becomes maintaining their current position and status. They then begin creating from that identity, rather than from the future they seek to create. This, of course, isnt a ctually creativity - because true creativity and art require attempting something beyond what youve currently done that will likely fail.You cant do anything power solely playing defense. You cant act in power if youre afraid to lose what you currently have. Leadership requires courage. You have to be willing to do what is right, regardless of the outcome. Those who cling to tightly to what they think they are and have will lose it.We are kept from our goal bedrngnis by obstacles but by a clear path to a lesser goal. - Robert BraultThe worst thing that could happen for most people is to succeed. Once they succeed, their focus shifts from continuing to learn and expand to replicating prior results.They stop pursuing their real dream and get caught up trying to maintain the small morsels of success theyve acquired. Their geistesbild shrinks to something so much smaller and easier than they initially set out to achieve.We abflug off with such great ambition, assuming that nothing wil l stand in the way of us accomplishing our goals. And in this great land of opportunity, if we study and work hard, we have an excellent chance of becoming successful. We will achieve our goals. Which could be the worst thing that will ever happen to us. Because when we achieve our goals, we often arrive at the land of contentment, and never realize that if we were to take off and fly again, we could achieve so much more. As George Bernard Shaw said, There are two tragedies in life One is not getting your hearts desire The other is to get it. It is a virtue to be content with what we have, but a vice to be content with what we are. Too many people congeal at some point in their lives. They reach a point where they dont want to change anymore. They become content with what they have become and their belief about their qualifikation congeals like cooking fat getting cold in the bottom of a frying pan. A human mind is a terrible thing to waste. Its even more tragic when the mind is one that was successful in the past but is now congealing in contentment. - Roger DawsonWhen someone succeeds to a certain degree, their growth mindset often shifts to a fixed-mindset. They stop wanting to push themselves further. They drift into complacency and a mind that was once sharp dulls into apathy.Success is a catalyst for failure. - Greg McKeownSuccess becomes a catalyst for failure because success isnt something youve accomplished. Its something you create. And the only way you can create something of true value is by being a deep student.Most people stop being true students after theyve succeeded, even in small degrees. They begin to rest on their laurels - being so satisfied with what one has already achieved that one makes no further effort.Additionally, with increased success often follows over-confidence and lack of focus. You stop putting in the time. You stop taking risks. You over-attach yourself and look more and more to the past and what youve achieved. You stop focusing on the future and what you want to achieve. You start listening to other peoples ideas and comments and stop listening to your own voice.Success is a suppressant to creativity, if you attach to it rather than use it as a vehicle to push your boundaries even further.I firmly believe you never should spend your time being the former anything. - Condoleezza RiceBecause youve succeeded in the past, you become attached to what youve accomplished. That becomes your identity and security. You live in the past and use your prior accomplishments to get validation from others.You become a former something - whether that be Olympian, entrepreneur, author, etc. Whatever it is, if you are the former anything, it means you arent doing anything now. Youre not pushing new boundaries. Youve lost the spirit of adventure. You quit.The moment you have arrived is the perfect time to start out again. - Dan SullivanThe world continually changes. Evolution requires growth and change. When you succeed big at something, dont sit there for long. You can only be new once.The biggest mistake most entrepreneurs make is that they hold on to their company far too long before selling it. Their thick skin becomes thin skin and they dont want to venture back out into the world of creation and the unknown.The moment you succeed is the moment you begin something new. Take what youve learned and transfer it. Take your confidence and belief that you can make big things happen and continue to push your boundaries. Be willing to give up temporary rewards for something much bigger in the future.The way to enjoy life best is to wrap up one goal and start right on the next one. Dont linger too long at the table of success, the only way to enjoy another meal is to get hungry. - Jim RohnLearning is intended to take you to higher levels. Strangely, though, when someone learns something and turns it to success, they stop learning. They stop being hungry. They dont allow what theyve learned to stimulate their imagination to bigger realms of potential.When youve succeeded at something, dont dwell their long. Nothing lasts forever, and the harder you try to hold onto something, the faster it will fade from your fingertips.Walk away while youre ahead. Look ahead to bigger vistas. Take what youve learned and acquired and direct it at something 10X or 100X bigger. Few people would be willing to walk away from what youll walk away from. But the again, few can see the next huge mountain youre about to climb.If youre the smartest person in the room, youre in the wrong room. - Marissa MeyerIf youre succeeding big, that probably means youre swimming in too small of a pool. You need a bigger pool to swim in. You need to get back to being the small fish who is completely humbled by everything and everyone around you.Dont stay the smartest person in your room for long. Remove the ego. Walk out of that room and start over. Its not about how smart you are. Its about how steep your lear ning curve is.To keep up with the world of 2050, you will need to do more than merely invent new ideas and products, but above all, reinvent yourself again and again. - Yuval Noah HarariIf you get over-attached to any outcomes youve had - whether good or bad - youre stuck. If you get attached to a particular identity or role youve played - youre stuck.The world is now changing far too fast to get over-attached to anything youve done or anyone youve been. Dont ever be the former anything. Be willing to re-invent yourself over and over.Always make your future bigger than your past. - Dan SullivanThe only way your future can be bigger than your past is if youre willing to destroy your past for something bigger and better.You have to continually stretch your mind for what is possible. You must be willing to fail. You must keep learning and expanding. In order for your future to be bigger than your past, your focus must be on your future, not your past.Dont worry about your past - whether good or bad. Use what youve learned, but never stop pushing your boundaries.Cautious, careful people, always casting about to preserve their reputations can never effect a reform. - Susan AnthonyWhat other people think about you is none of your business. The worst thing you could do is care what your colleagues think of you. If you care too much about your reputation or status, then any success youve had in the past will not be replicated to higher degrees in the future.You must be willing to throw-off your reputation. You must be willing to fail. You must be fine losing everything youve gained. Because for you, youre not attached to the outcomes or identities of your past. For you, the only thing that makes sense is following the voice inside compelling you to continually learn and grow - whatever that looks like.What got you here wont get you there. - Dr. Marshall GoldsmithWhat got you to this point is not what is going to get you to the next point of success.This is a fact.You cant stay where you are.You must learn something new if youre too get to higher and new levels.Every next level of your life will demand a different you. - Leonardo DicaprioIf youre not willing to become a new person, then you will remain where you are. Commitment to big dreams demands that you become the type of person who can create those dreams. Success is something you create and attract based on the person you become.If youre not prepared to be wrong, youll never come up with anything original. - Sir Ken RobinsonFew people really want to do something original. Theyd rather be comfortable and content. To them, having nice things and having status is more important than pushing boundaries.most people are imitators, not innovators. It takes courage to change the game, rather then merely play it.For the few people who are truly artists, inventors, and movers - you must be willing to be wrong. Again, this hunger and willingness to learn at whatever the cost usually goes away after some level of achievement or comfort has been reached.If youre willing to do something that might not work, youre closer to becoming an artist. - Seth GodinIf youve stopped being willing to be wrong, youre not an artist. Youre a sell-out. Being an artist doesnt mean that you arent also a scientist. You certainly dont have to starve. And you certainly dont have to focus purely on the process and ignore outcomes - that form of ego is probably worse than those seeking success for success sake.Be an artist in that you never stop giving you best and most generous and personal work. Be a scientist such that you care enough about your art to get it to into the hands of the right people.Beyond a certain point, there is no return. This point has to be reached. - Franz KafkaWherever you are right now, in order to get where youre going, you will need to pass a point of no return. This will take tremendous courage and commitment. Complete commitment and investment actually. In ord er to transcend your current identity and take on the new role of your bigger future, youll need to put yourself in a position where going back is no longer an option.Expect everything and attach to nothing - Carrie CampbellExpect success.

Eleven powerful habits of truly happy people

Eleven powerful habits of truly happy peopleEleven powerful habits of truly happy peopleWhen we think of happiness, we typically think of things that bring us immediate pleasure - a decadent meal, a favorite book, or a relaxing day on the beach. These pleasures do bring happiness, but only temporarily. Recent studies have shown that true happiness, or life satisfaction, works a bit differently.In one study, University of Pennsylvania psychologist Martin Seligman categorized hundreds of people into three groups based on how they pursued happinessThe Pleasant Life People in pursuit of the Pleasant Life seek happiness by looking for pleasure. They are good at savoring the moment and making their pleasures last. These people are often described as thrill-seekers.The Engaged Life People in pursuit of the Engaged Life seek happiness by working hard at their passions. They immerse themselves so deeply in these that they sometimes come across as cold and uncaring but for them, time seems to melt away as they experience a state of total engagement.The Meaningful Life People in pursuit of the Meaningful Life use their strengths to work toward something they believe contributes to a greater good. This greater good motivates them deeply.Seligman found that people who pursued the Pleasant Life experienced little happiness, while those who pursued the Meaningful Life and the Engaged Life were very happy.While Seligmans research is just a single study, it shows that where you focus your energy and attention has a big impact on your happiness. Those who pursued the Engaged Life and the Meaningful Life had something important in common - they were deeply passionate, and they used their strengths to better themselves and the world around them.Indeed, happy people are highly intentional. If you want to follow in their footsteps, learn to incorporate the following habits into your repertoire.Create your own happiness (dont sit back and wait for it).Every second you waste waiting for happiness is a second you could have been using to create it. The happiest people arent the luckiest, wealthiest, or best-looking the happiest people are those who make an effort to be happy. If you want to create your own happiness, you have to departure by making it a priority. We work so hard to avoid letting other people down, but we so often do so at the expense of our own happiness.Surround yourself with the right people.Happiness is contagious. Surrounding yourself with happy people builds confidence and stimulates creativity, and its flat-out fun. Hanging around negative people has the opposite effect - they want people to join their pity party so that they can feel better about themselves. Think of it this way If a person were smoking, would you sit there all afternoon inhaling the second-hand smoke?Get enough sleep.Ive beaten this one to death over the years and cant say enough about the importance of sleep to improving your mood, focus, and self-control. When you sl eep, your brain literally recharges, removing toxic proteins that accumulate during the day as byproducts of normal neuronal activity. This ensures that you wake up alert and clear-headed. Your energy, attention, and memory are all reduced when you dont get enough quality sleep. Sleep deprivation also raises stress hormone levels on its own, even without a stressor present. Happy people make sleep a priority, because it makes them feel great and they know how lousy they feel when theyre sleep deprived.Live in the moment.You cant reach your full potential until you learn to live your life in the present. No amount of guilt can change the past, and no amount of anxiety can change the future. Its impossible to be happy if youre constantly somewhere else, unable to fully embrace the reality (good or bad) of this very moment. To help yourself live in the moment, you must do two things First, accept your past. If you dont make peace with your past, it will never leave you and, in doing so , it will create your future. Second, accept the uncertainty of the future. Worry has no place in the here and now. As Mark Twain once said, Worrying is like paying a debt you dont owe.Learn to love yourself.Most of us have no problem marveling at our friends good qualities, but it can be hard to appreciate our own. Learn to accept who you are, and appreciate your strengths. Studies have shown that practicing self-compassion increases the number of healthy choices you make, improves mental health, and decreases your tendency to procrastinate.Appreciate what you have.Taking time to contemplate what youre grateful for isnt merely the right thing to do. It also improves your mood, because it reduces the stress hormone cortisol by 23 percent. Research conducted at the University of California, Davis found that people who worked daily to cultivate an attitude of gratitude experienced improved mood, energy, and physical well-being. Its likely that lower levels of cortisol played a major r ole in this.Exercise.Getting your body moving for as little as 10 minutes releases GABA, a neurotransmitter that makes your brain feel soothed and keeps you in control of your impulses. Happy people schedule regular exercise and follow through on it because they know it pays huge dividends for their mood.Forgive, but dont forget.Happy people live by the motto Fool me once, shame on you fool me twice, shame on me. They forgive in order to prevent a grudge, but they never forget. The negative emotions that come with holding onto a grudge are actually a stress response. Holding on to that stress can have devastating consequences for your health and mood, and happy people know to avoid this at all costs. However, offering forgiveness doesnt mean theyll give a wrongdoer aleidher chance. Happy people will not be bogged down by mistreatment from others, so they quickly let things go and are assertive in protecting themselves from future harm.Get in touch with your feelings.Attempting to re press your emotions doesnt just feel bad its bad for you. Learning to be open about your feelings decreases stress levels and improves your mood. One study even suggested that there was a relationship between how long you live and your ability to express your emotions. It found that people who lived to be at least 100 were significantly more emotionally expressive than the average person.Concentrate on what you can control.Rather than dwelling on the things you cant control, try putting your effort into the things that you can. Have a long commute to work? Try listening to audiobooks. Hurt your leg jogging? Try swimming. More often than not, we take the bad and let it hold us back when it doesnt have to. Happy people are happy because they take their failures in stride, not because they dont fail.Have a growth mindset.Peoples core attitudes fall into one of two categories a fixed mindset or a growth mindset. With a fixed mindset, you believe you are who you are and you cannot change . This creates problems when youre challenged, because anything that appears to be more than you can handle is bound to make you feel hopeless and overwhelmed. People with a growth mindset believe that they can improve with effort. This makes them happier because they are better at handling difficulties. They also outperform those with a fixed mindset because they embrace challenges, treating them as opportunities to learn something new.Bringing it all togetherThese strategies wont just improve your happiness theyll also make you a better person. Pick those that resonate with you and have fun with them.Travis Bradberry is the co-author ofEmotional Intelligence 2.0and the cofounder ofTalentSmart.Thiscolumnfirst appeared onLinkedIn.

Follow whatever rules you are given about what to wear to work. However, if you are given little direction on what to wear, dress in professional business attire. This is particularly the case if you are working the front of house at a partic ularly conservative restaurant or hotel, or if you are in a management ort. For men, professional business attire might mean a suit or pants with a button-down shirt and tie. For women, it might mean a dress and blazer. If the atmosphere is more casual, or if you are part of the back of house staff, such as a cook or housekeeper, you can dress in business casual attire. For men, this might mean chinos and a dress shirt, with or without a tie. For women, this can mean pants and a blouse or a sheath dress. Make the customer stand out, not your clothes. In hospitality, your job is to serve the customer. Therefore, you dont want your clothing to stand out so much that it distracts from the customers. Avoid flashy jewelry or lots of makeup. Also, keep your colors neutral- blacks, grays, browns, and dark blues are best. You can always add a pop of color with a scarf, simple necklace, or colored blouse under a neutral blazer or cardigan. Wear comfortable shoes. Almost anyone in the hospita lity industry will tell you this is a lesson you will learn quickly after being on your feet all day. Wear shoes that you can walk in for long periods of time. Comfortable black loafers or, if the environment is casual, black sneakers are good choices. Try to find shoes with nonslip soles you dont want to slip while holding a plate of food Take care of your clothes. Whatever you end up wearing to work, be sure it is tailored (not too tight or loose), washed, and ironed. Shoes should be clear of scuffs or stains. Customers will be distracted if you look messy, so be sure your look is clean and polished. Develop good grooming habits. Your clothes matter, but so does the way you present the rest of yourself. Like your clothing and makeup, your hairstyle should not be too distracting. If you work in the food industry, you want your hair out of your face- and away from the food. Put your hair up, cover it up, or wear it short. What to Wear for a Restaurant Job In a restaurant, hosts, servers, and bartenders (the front of house staff) will typically be asked to wear solid colored slacks or a skirt, a solid colored button down, or a collared or logo shirt. Sometimes there will be an apron or hat to pull the look together. If you are given little direction on what to wear, dress professionally. Men can wear button-down shorts and dress pants or chinos. If the restaurant is more upscale, or if you hold a managerial role, you might wear a dress vest or tie. Chefs, cooks, and their assistants (the back of house staff) typically wear a chef coat with slacks and comfortable closed-toe shoes. Women can wear button-down shorts and dress pants, a skirt and blouse, or a dress. Comfortable shoes are particularly important in the restaurant industry. Make sure you are wearing shoes that you can walk around in for a long shift. Also be sure to keep long hair away from your face, perhaps in a bun, ponytail, or braid, or wrap it in a headscarf. You also want to be well groomed, particularly your nails. If you are touching food in any way, you will need to have clean hands. What to Wear for a Hotel Job Hotels often require uniforms or offer very specific guidelines for what to wear to work. As an employee, you are a representative of the hotel, and you need to dress appropriately. If you have little guidance on what to wear, dress in business professional attire, avoiding anything too flashy. Keep jewelry to a minimum piercings and tattoos should be covered when possible hair and makeup should be conservative. Invest in comfortable, closed-toe shoes, as you will spend a lot of time on your feet. Sneakers are often not allowed, so find some comfortable loafers or other more professional shoes. What to Wear for a Resort or Spa Job Resorts, spas, and clubs vary in their dress codes according to your position and their location. For example, a tropical resort is going to have more casual standards than a spa in a metropolitan city. There may well be a uniform required, or a jacket or coat to wear with your own conservative clothing. Again, remember to wear comfortable, closed-toe shoes. What to Wear to a Hospitality Interview Perhaps you dont have a job yet but are preparing for an interview in the hospitality industry. Dress a bit more formal than the staff. Before the interview, check out what the employees are wearing. If you arent sure what they wear, call the manager and ask. Dress a bit more formal than the employees. For example, if everyone is wearing shorts and a T-shirt, wear something business casual, like chinos and a polo shirt. If everyone wears a suit and tie, wear your best suit. Generally, you will also dress a bit more formally if you are applying for a job in a manager or supervisor role, like a hotel manager or restaurant manager. For women, this might mean a suit, dress pants, and a blouse, or a dress and cardigan. For men, this might mean slacks and a button-down and tie, or a suit. Fit in with the cultu re. While you want to look polished, be sure to fit in with the company culture. For example, you dont want to wear a suit and tie if everyone that works at the organization wears shorts and a tank top. If youre working for a trendy new hotel, you might get away with wearing a more fashionable or stylish top or dress. However, when in doubt, it is better to dress conservatively. Stand out (just a little). You want your interview to make you stand out from the crowd. You can do this by answering interview questions well, by acting professionally, and by showing enthusiasm for the job. You can also do this in subtle ways with your outfit. Generally, keep your colors neutral, and limit your accessories and makeup. However, if you want to add something to make you stand out, pick one thing, like a pop of color in your tie or a statement necklace. But remember, in hospitality, you want the client- not you- to stand out, so keep it subtle. Look polished. Make sure that not only is your ou tfit appropriate, but also that your entire look is polished. Wash and iron (or dry clean) your outfit right before wearing it. Complete the look with professional, polished shoes. Make sure your hair is well groomed as well. All of these little things will help complete your professional look.

Les jeux sont faits

Les jeux sont faitsLes jeux sont faitsAnd now we see how they play out. This week, The American Lawyer released its 2009 Global 100 ranking of the worlds highest-grossing law firms. The biggest upset (which isnt news to those who have been following the firms financial travails) is Clifford Chances dethroning by Linklaters. Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer has also vaulted over its larger Magic Circle rival to take the No. 2 spot, leaving CC in third place. The presence of so many UK firms at the top prompts AmLaws Richard Lloyd to examine whether The English AdvantageBritish firms hedging their bets against a downturn by spreading the risk across global networks (the sort of hedge that American firms have with their litigation and bankruptcy practices)has proved successful this year. Lloyds conclusion Some firms hedges, it turns out, were more robust than others. Insights on the strategyThe success of an international hedge is elend only about geographic diversity. Its about business mix rather than just scale, says Freshfields chief executive Ted Burke. An international hedge is about timingit reflects the way the downturn spread internationally, says Lovells managing partner David Harris. For some firms, like Shearman Sterling, the impact of the downturn was blunted by the slow progression of the crisis from the United States to Europe and finally to Asia.What next?The same slow rollout is expected to mark the end of the downturn. A growing number of forecasts suggest that Asia will emerge first, led by China.And, according to Linklaters managing partner Simon DaviesGovernment-related work is going to become more important, there will be more regulation. With banks having less leverage, the volume of financial product work will be at a lower level. With continued volatility in the markets, law firms will have to increase the flexibility of their lawyers, partly by broadening training.- posted by vera

Directors Organizational Meeting FAQ - United States

Directors Organizational Meeting FAQ - United States Directors Organizational Meeting FAQ - United States Organizational MeetingsWhere do I file the minutes for my organizational meetings?You do not need to make a regulatory filing for your organizational meeting minutes. The organizational meeting minutes are for your own records. The organizational meeting minutes should be stored in your corporate minute books for safe keeping. Which organizational meetings do I need?Incorporators' Organizational Meeting If initial directors were NOT named in the Articles of Incorporation, the incorporators will hold an Incorporators' Organizational Meeting to complete the organization of the corporation. At the Incorporators' Organizational Meeting the incorporators may simply elect a board of directors who will then hold a Directors' Organizational Meeting and the newly appointed directors will complete the organization of the corporation. Directors' Organizational Meeting If directors are appointed and the organization of the corporation is not complete then the Directors will hold an Organizational Meeting to complete the organization of the corporation. Shareholders' Organizational Meeting Once the corporation has been substantially organized (either through an Incorporators' Organizational Meeting or a Directors' Organizational Meeting or both) the Shareholders will hold a Shareholders' Organizational Meeting to ratify the decisions and actions of the incorporators and directors, appoint or elect new directors, appoint or waive the appointment of auditors, and also to resolve any other business that has been brought before the meeting. OfficersWhat does a president do?The president is an executive officer of the corporation usually responsible for the day-to-day operations of the corporation. The president will report to the board of directors.

A shareholder is not personally liable for the debts and obligations of the corporation.

Other secured creditors such as banks and bond holders would be paid first in the event of the liquidation of the assets of the corporation.

Resolutions describe an action taken during a board meeting. A resolution may also have been generated by agreement without a meeting (e.g. written consent of action, or directors' consent to action).

Ghosting Job Candidates Can Destroy Your Reputation

Ghosting Job Candidates Can Destroy Your Reputation Ghosting Job Candidates Can Destroy Your Reputation Have you ever gone on a job interview and then heard nothing from the recruiter or hiring manager even after you’ve sent emails or left voicemails? This is called ghosting and while the term originated in personal relationships (you go on a date and then never hear from him again), it occurs in hiring all of the time. For many years, ghosting was something recruiters and hiring managers have done to job candidates. When the unemployment rate was high, they didn’t see a downside to ghosting: new, qualified candidates were easy to find, recruit, and hire. The Effect of Ghosting Prospective Employees In 2018, though, the unemployment rate is lower than it’s been in a long time, and candidates and employees have turned the tables on employers. Chip Cutter, the managing editor at LinkedIn, noted that candidates are not returning calls from recruiters and people have started simply not showing up for work rather than giving two weeks’ notice. Turnabout is fair play, after all. Why should candidates treat recruiters and hiring managers with respect when they haven’t been treated with respect for years? Well, employers and candidates should always treat each other respectfully. Many recruiters are learning the hard way that their years of assuming that candidates would always be available are over and that job seekers now have the upper hand. But other than this “revenge,” how does ghosting affect employee recruitment? Recruiters As Public Relations Specialists This may seem ridiculous- recruiters dont talk to the press after all, and they don’t try to get magazine articles written about the company, so why do they need to worry about public relations? Think about it. With whom do recruiters spend a good portion of their time talking? Non-employees, right? And most of those people will never become employees. That’s just the nature for recruiting. If you ghost candidates and treat them poorly, they will speak to their friends, and you will lose out on future candidates and future clients. You fret about customer service roles, but ignore the impact a ghosting recruiter can have on the company’s growth. A bad reputation is a bad reputation- once gained, a bad reputation with prospective employees is difficult to overcome. Shrinking Pipeline for Job Applicants Everyone who applies for a job believes that they are, in some way, qualified for that job. Sometimes, this stretches the imagination, as people send in their resumes to job postings with one matching keyword. But often, candidates are good matches. And everyone who comes in for an interview is a good enough match, right? You certainly don’t hire everyone you interview, but that doesn’t mean all of those people are bad fits for your company forever. Many of them would be great fits for a different position or even the same position in a couple of years. A good recruiter doesn’t just post ads, she learns the people in the industry and keeps a pipeline running so that when a job opens, she can fill it quickly. If you treat prospective employees poorly, you’ve essentially kicked them out of the candidate pipeline. Sure, you can contact them 18 months from now, but they will remember that they came in for three different rounds of interviews and then never heard back- as a recruiter, you ghosted them. Who wants to put themselves through that again? Internal Referrals Decrease One of the best sources for job candidates is your current employees. They are experts in their fields and they tend to know other people who do what they do. But, if they refer their friends and colleagues, who then take the time to come in to interview, and then never hear from you again, they tell your current employees about what you’ve done. Your employees don’t plan to work for your company forever. They need to maintain their reputation in their field. They won’t ruin it by bringing in people who then receive poor treatment. Instead, they’ll quietly stop recommending people for positions within the company. Why Ghosting Happens No one has the time. Every employee is busy. But, treating candidates politely and getting back to those who have interviewed is the right thing to do, and it will save you time in the long run. You’ll increase your positive reputation, build your prospective employee pipeline, and receive referrals from current employees. Not having those things will cost you far more time than having your ATS send out emails to all candidates saying, “Thank you so much for interviewing, however, we’ve decided to go in a different direction. Please do keep us in mind for roles for which you qualify in the future.” Treat people with respect and professionalism because it’s the moral and ethical behavior to exhibit. And it doesn’t hurt that your business will also benefit from prospective employees flocking to your door. At the same time, you will retain and nurture your current employees who feel as if you treated them and their contacts respectfully. - Suzanne Lucas is a freelance writer who spent 10 years in corporate human resources, where she hired, fired, managed the numbers, and double-checked with the lawyers.

Professional opinion The business of breaking up a partnership

Professional opinion The business of breaking up a partnership Professional opinion The business of breaking up a partnership *Written anonymously to protect the NOT so innocent.I remember sitting there, just highlighting, highlighting and highlighting, so many numbers, so many charges, so much money- just gone. When we started the company together, it was thrilling. We were young, ambitious, hungry and starting something with a potential magnitude we didn’t know or could even fathom. That’s how a lot of companies start, as an idea, a collaboration. Then all the sudden, you’re in it.The co-founder,  business-boss-gal-pals model is popular- see Gilt, Rent the Runway, Birchbox and Proactiv- and it makes sense why.

Or it can not.Follow Ladders on Flipboard!Follow Ladders’ magazines on Flipboard covering Happiness, Productivity, Job Satisfaction, Neuroscience, and more!Cut to a few years into your business, em ployees, money and tensions run high, and while you may think your roles are clear as can be, your word means nothing unless it’s in writing.  Breaking up with a business partner might just be the most painful breakup you can go through- because this one comes with a price tag.My story is not unique, but when it happened to me it felt like the world was crashing in. It was hard to breathe, difficult to believe that someone I trusted, and even cared about, could be taking money from a company that we had built together from the ground up. My gut had been telling me for months that something wasn’t right, but I assumed it was more a personal issue and that no matter what was going on between us, we were both equally invested in the business.Wrong.It eventually came to light that not only was my partner not managing our finances, but actually manipulating them. This included racking up unrelated business expenses, disregarding all things tax related, and straight up embezzling mone y.  I was devastated, and what was worse, I had no idea what to do next. I felt ashamed and scared to talk about it- I thought it had to be a reflection on me and how I operated a business. It took me a few years and several conversations to get over it, and through it all, I realized that I wasn’t alone. One business partner taking advantage of another happens, and it happens a lot. Partnerships split up and morph all the time and for all kinds of reasons. Being able to step back back and realize something isn’t working  is a part of being a mature business pro.The hardest- and yet ultimately most helpful- thing for me to accept was that it was NOT my fault.  Trusting someone is not a flaw but a positive characteristic. It takes trust to build a business, and had I been skeptical and suspicious from day one, we would have never gotten off the ground.  Moving on and away from a partner does not have to mean the end of your business, and often, it will actually turn out to be t he beginning of something great.I hope this never happens to you, but if it does, here are my tips for pulling through, and maybe even coming out on top.Don’t overreact.When I found out, I wanted to freak out, confront and deal with it head on, but cooler heads prevailed. Take a deep breath, and assess all the details of the situation to 100% ensure you are in the right before initiating a confrontation.Get your team in place.I was lucky enough to have an incredible lawyer and forensic finance team that helped shape my case and bring to light things I would have overlooked.

I personally called each client to explain that my partner and I were parting ways. I followed up with an email of how the transition would work and assured them we were ready to t ake on the challenge. When you do all of this, resist the urge to talk bad about your former partner and keep the details of why you’re splitting to a minimum.Tune out the ‘I told you so’One of the hardest things was hearing from many friends, family, business contacts and clients who swore that “they saw this coming.”  I acknowledged that they meant well, but just tuned it out. Beating myself up wasn’t going to help me move forward, and I had to focus on what was right in front of me.Revise and renewAs roles and responsibilities change in your partnership, update your operating agreement.

Heres What Happened When I Stood Up to My Office Bully

Here’s What Happened When I Stood Up to My Office Bully Here’s What Happened When I Stood Up to My Office Bully We all have memories of school bullies we’d like to leave behind. But bullying doesn’t end after graduation- in fact, it’s common in the workplace. According to the Workplace Bullying Institute, bullying is actually four times more common than sexual harassment in the workplace. It’s also an issue that affects both women and men. The thing about it is that it’s not easy to spot, especially given our cultural norms. For example, when I received a series of passive-aggressive emails, I initially brushed them off because I was told the sender was “difficult.” At the time, I didn’t recognize these messages were inappropriate. Too often women ignore or dismiss belittling behavior in the office. As women, we’re conditioned to be nice, to not make waves, to submit to authority. The tide is turning, however. With the rise of the #MeToo movement and #TimesUp campaign, women across the U.S. (and the world) are speaking up about sexual harassment- and putting an end to it. We can speak out to stop bullying, too. That’s why I’m sharing my story. The Starting Point When I experienced workplace bullying, I was starting a new job- one that required me to work directly with this colleague. Let’s call him D. We weren’t in the same department, but D played a key role in the projects I managed. He was 20 years my senior; I was in my twenties. His work was often late, which made my work late, too. This became a problem, so I started trying to hold D accountable for deadlines. That’s when the bullying began. Rather than own up to his tardiness, D belittled me via email. Once, he said he’d told my office friend that it was a “big mistake” I’d taken this job. Other times, he’d find a way to twist a situation and blame me for his lateness. Most of the time, he was just rude, dealing out backhanded compliments with practiced ease. Communicating with him made me anxious. My confidence plummeted. I started thinking maybe what he told my friend was right- maybe I wasn’t cut out for this position. D’s words had me wrapped up in a major case of imposter syndrome. The strangest thing of all? The harassment only happened over email. We rarely saw each other since we worked in different departments. Blame it on socialization or inexperience (or both), but I couldn’t say for sure what was going on. I knew in my gut that something was wrong, and I dreaded our interactions. I think I endured D’s bad behavior for so long because I’d come to believe some of the hurtful, condescending comments he made. He’d been actively intimidating me- and it had been working- but I was too naive to see it. How I Stood Up to Him One day, I got an email from D that really made me mad. I went to my supervisor and told her everything. Then I asked for help. “You’re not going to like this answer,” she said. “The only way to stop this is for you to confront him. You’ve got to call him out.” Surely I’d misheard her. I figured she’d step in or send me to HR. Instead, she wanted me to talk to him. I told her I couldn’t confront him- it made me too uncomfortable. I sat at my desk, palms sweating, and thought. I thought through what I needed to say, how I would say it, and before I could back out, I picked up the phone and dialed D’s number. When my co-worker answered, he seemed startled. “D, this has to stop,” I said. “Your emails are disrespectful and unprofessional. You can’t speak to me that way.” “OK,” he stammered. “OK,” I said abruptly. Then I hung up the phone. My hands were shaking, adrenaline pumping. I felt stunned. The person who spoke on the phone sounded strong, confident, and calm- nothing like the disorganized, in-over-her-head woman D made me out to be. I wasn’t sure what the outcome of our conversation would be, but I was sure of one thing: I’d summoned the courage to confront my bully and in doing so, I rediscovered my voice. What Happened Next The bullying stopped. The emails became polite. My working relationship with D improved. Work became pleasant again, and I began to thrive. I thanked my boss for pushing me to be courageous and to take a stand for myself. The experience was a turning point in my career. After I spoke up to D, I wanted to speak up more. I became more assertive and engaged in meetings and conversations. My confidence grew and I embraced my new role. If you think you’re being bullied at work, I urge you to take action. Start by talking with your supervisor or someone you can trust outside of the office. Document evidence of bullying for your records. Identify what’s hurtful to you and how you’d like to move forward. The next time an incident occurs, confront your bully immediately. If the bullying continues after that, it’s time to talk to HR. If your discomfort confronting the person goes beyond not wanting to have hard conversations and goes into “I feel unsafe doing this,” definitely go to HR. You should never feel like you’re in danger at the office. My biggest takeaway? There’s nothing more powerful than standing up for yourself and summoning your voice.

10 things happy professionals do before 10 a.m.

10 things happy professionals do before 10 a.m. 10 things happy professionals do before 10 a.m. Success often seems like a visionary goal - a feat in life that’s attempted only after many strides, plenty of pitfalls and a healthy serving of endurance. However, for those who consider themselves fulfilled by their career, it’s not only a sense of accomplishment and an impressive LinkedIn profile that defines their satisfaction with their work. In fact, their overall desire to work harder and effectively doesn’t just stem from extra zeros on their paycheck, but rather, it derives from a place of happiness. As the old rhyme reminds, contentment isn’t a destination, but a process - and if you’re smart, a priority for both your professional and personal life. How do you carve in time to, well, improve your overall mood and outlook?Looking for an inspiring way to start your day? Sign up for  Morning Motivation!It’s our friendly Facebook ?   that will send you a quick note every weekday morning to help you start strong. Sign up here by clicking Get Started!Here, life coac hes and psychologists explain the shared secrets happy professionals share:1. They get enough sleepEven if college was many moons ago, you’ve likely pulled an all-nighter in the past year. Or, you’ve been so overworked and double-booked that you spent more time tossing and turning than resting. For those people who wake up ready â€" and elated â€" to tackle the day ahead, the eight hours that come before the alarm clock dings are just as important as the minutes that follow it. As licensed therapist Melody Li explains, many workers overlook the power of a good night’s sleep in an effort to push their minds and bodies to the limit. As studies indicate and Li reminds, not reaping the rewards of shuteye usually results in poor memory, difficulty problem-solving and unexplained ups and downs. Professionals who tuck themselves into bed instead of watching Netflix (or their favorite YouTube videos on repeat)? They wake up in better spirits.2. They take their timeSure, there are some mornings that warrant that tempting snooze button, but to rise on the right side of the bed, yoga therapist and natural health expert Dr. Lynn Anderson Ph.D., giving yourself time to linger is key. When you feel frazzled or pressed for time, you’ll not only make more mistakes which can bum-out your confidence levels, but you don’t allow yourself to ease into the day’s tasks in an enjoyable manner. “Get up early enough to relax, enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and organize the day. Rushing and running late leads to stress and stress is like a fire extinguisher for happiness. It’s a poisonous gas that makes a mess. Being organized and relaxed creates happiness,” she shares.3. They make their bedSeems simple enough, but how often do you leave your apartment or home in shambles? It’s easy to forget in the hustle of the morning, but motivational speaker and workplace expert Amy Cooper Hakim, Ph.D. says there’s a sense of glee found when your living area is prime. “A happy professional builds confidence and self-efficacy by completing a simple chore like making her bed before heading to the office. This act sets a ‘can do’ mindset into motion for the day. It’s an easy task to check off  the to-do list,” she shares. “When we accomplish one item on our agenda, we are more driven to accomplish others. Also, as a double bonus, many find it especially comforting and gratifying to climb into a made bed at the end of a long day!”4. They are able to see gratitude and practice humilityWe all have that Wonder Woman (or man) in our life that seemingly glides through life, experiencing it all with ease. They’re top of their game at work, thoughtful and kind to others, brave to their core, and overall, rather funny. If you dig a little deeper, you’ll notice a common thread of humility in these happy-go-lucky, positive-thinking individuals. Career coach and shamanic practitioner John Moore explains  that those who exercise gratitude as part of thei r daily routine tend to be more joyful, in life and in work. He adds that research even indicates thankful people have better relationships and more enduring psychological health.5. They set daily goalsYep, you read that correctly: Happy professionals are masters of setting micro, 24/7 goals that keep them on the right track. As career and branding expert Wendi Weiner explains, those who are able to turnaround the best work with the best attitude take the time to plan ahead, so they aren’t caught in a bind or a last-minute deadline that slipped off their radar. “These are non-negotiable tasks that must be completed for that day. The reason for this is that when you actually achieve what you set out to achieve, that will raise the level of happiness and personal satisfaction,” she says.6. They communicate with othersThose people who are nearly always smiling - and not faking it, but really grinning their heart out - usually want to spend time with one another. Moore explains that the pull comes from a part in our brains called the ‘anterior cingulate cortex’ which measures social status, as well as pain and a high number of opiate receptors. “Social exclusion registers in the brain much like physical pain. In studies, one of the greatest predictors of happiness is the breadth of social networks,” he says.Even if you don’t start chatting up a storm with your partner or your morning-hating roommate, Moore says you’ll start the day off brighter if you, at the very least, communicate in some way. “Happy professionals focus some of their morning time growing and nurturing social connections. Check in with friends, meet someone for coffee, chat up the cute barista - just start talking!” he says.7. They keep their calendars openIt might be difficult to tango around time zones if you have international clients, but if you can help it, health coach Kenneth Rippetoe recommends keeping your calendar completely free until after 10 a.m. This gives y ou time to prepare for your day and be mindful of the moments you’re giving your energy to others, instead of always being readily available. “Practice being intentional with your time and resources. When you are intentional, you make the choices that do align with your value system and goals for your personal and professional life,” he explains.8. They focus on the present and future, not the pastAsk anyone who has been able to send away the skeletons in their closet and they’ll agree that releasing the mistakes of yesteryear was the first step. If you find yourself dreading each day or feeling anxious about how your career will exceed, Weiner suggests taking a page from the notebook of joy-focused professionals who make a habit of living in the moment and preparing for the future with a solid outlook. “Happy professionals will concentrate their focus on the present things they are doing and the present goals they want to achieve as well as the future things they plan to do and/or achieve,” she explains. “Their energy will concentrate less on regrets, and more on taking chances and risks to maximize their happiness.”9. They complete a task that makes them feel powerfulPerhaps it was after you ran you very first 5K. Or landed a client that took months to romance. Or when you finally took the plunge and checked ‘bungee jumping’ off your bucket list. While you can’t perform one-of-a-kind feats every single day (sadly), Li stresses the importance of completing something in the A.M. that set you up to feel powerful throughout the day. Though every person will sing a different tune, it’s most important that you strategize your day to make time for this task. “For many, it’s some type of physical activity like running, swimming, or lifting. For others, it might be solving a tricky puzzle or crossword. It could be meditating, dancing to energetic music, or even stretching,” she explains. “Whatever that looks like to you, spend at least 15 minutes doing something that reinforces the strength that you hold within and carry this sense of power with you into your day.”10. They visualize their successMuch like amping up for the future - whether it’s a month, a year or a decade away - psychologist and relationship expert Anotina Hall says happy careers are much like flourishing love affairs. To truly find the grace and vulnerability in the positions you’re in, you have to be courageous enough to imagine your future. As Hall explains, “Studies have shown that by spending even a few minutes each morning to visualize your goals coming to fruition with ease increases the likelihood of successfully accomplishing those goals.“See your upcoming meeting in vivid detail, visualizing the desired outcome will help make it go well and build your confidence!”

Mission Is What You Do in Your Workplace

Mission Is What You Do in Your Workplace Mission Is What You Do in Your Workplace A mission is your expression of what it is that your organization does. Your mission tells a customer, employee, shareholder, vendor or interested job candidate exactly what you are in business to do. Determining your mission is an early component in corporate or organizational  strategic planning. You cannot identify values, goals, or action plans without first succinctly defining what you do. Sure, you might think, what we do is we make widgets. Do you get, however, that we make widgets is hardly inspirational for your employees, prospective employees, or customers? A Superior Mission Sparks Joy The mission is a description of why your organization exists currently. The mission should inspire your employees to contribute on a daily basis. It should enable them to see the intrinsic value of what they contribute and how you serve your customers. The key to developing a mission is that the words you use must identify the big picture, a big picture that makes your employees think you hung the moon and the stars for them. This mission is a brief description of why your organization exists. For example, TechSmith Corporation makes software that captures your screen. Hardly inspirational, but the company lived with that mission for several years. Gradually, the mission was refined and shared out with the world. It became: We empower people to create remarkable videos and images that help share knowledge and information. Now, thats a powerful expression that attracts and keeps employees. Recently, their mission was updated yet again: TechSmith is the go-to company for visual communication. We help anyone create professional, impactful videos and images to share their knowledge with others. Sharing knowledge is way more inspirational than software that captures your screen or even, we empower people. Developing the Mission Statement Once you and a cross section of your employees or your senior team reach agreement on the contents of your mission, this content is turned into a mission statement. You do this so you can more easily share your story with employees, prospective employees, and your customers. Normally, the mission statement ranges in length from a couple of words to several paragraphs. A shorter mission is more memorable. When a mission stretches on for pages, and even paragraphs, it is usually because the organization is also expressing how it plans to reach or create the mission, usually the four or five key strategies it will use to accompliah the basic mission. This process is better left for later in strategic planning when the organization develops strategies, goals, and action plans. It just confuses the process of identifying your organizations basic mission at this stage. Your goal when you develop your mission is descriptive, memorable, and short. The mission is translated into actionable plans via the development of a mission statement. The Impact of Your Mission on Employees If you have successfully assimilated and integrated your mission into your company culture, every employee should be able to verbally share the mission statement. Each employees actions should demonstrate the mission in action. The mission, along with the vision and the values or guiding principles, provides the touchstone, with which employees in your organization make decisions. The best missions are kept front and center in an organization. They are frequently communicated by senior employees who give examples of the mission being accomplished in real employee stories that demonstrate the appropriate actions. The mission is often publicized by employees as a part of their signature file in email communications. It is posted on the companys About webpage. It is shared on social media and in job postings for prospective employees. It is used as a tool for communicating and as a PR tagline to serve the organizations best interests. Sample Organization Missions These sample organizational missions are provided to demonstrate the proper way to create a mission. Google: To organize the worlds information and make it universally accessible and useful. Microsoft: Our mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. Public Broadcasting System (PBS): To create content that educates, informs, and inspires. Nordstrom: To give customers the most compelling shopping experience possible.   Uber: We ignite opportunity by setting the world in motion. Paypal: To build the webs most convenient, secure, cost effective payment solution. The Nature Conservancy: Since 1951, The Nature Conservancy has worked to protect the lands and waters on which all life depends.

If Nothing Else, Do These 5 Things on Your Resume

If Nothing Else, Do These 5 Things on Your Resume If Nothing Else, Do These 5 Things on Your Resume 54“I can’t wait to update my resume and apply for some jobs!” said no one, ever. But since it must be done, if you do nothing else, do these five things on your resume. We get it. Resume writing is not your favorite pastime. Most people would probably rather clean their house from top to bottom. However, a clean house will not land you your next job- unless you’re in the cleaning industry, we suppose. So we’re making this as painless as possible for you by choosing the five things you must absolutely do when updating your resume. That’s right, five- a number so small, you can count it on one hand. So let’s get started. Here are five things to put on your resume: 1. Create a value statement. Just as much as you’re dreading writing your resume, the hiring manager is dreading reading your resume. A value statement will make this quick and painless for both of you, because it will state everything they need to know about what you should put on your  resume. Your value statement, sometimes called a Summary of Qualifications, must include what you do, how many years of experience you have, your academic credentials, your industry expertise, and a sample of your most relevant and significant achievements to capture the hiring manager’s attention. 2. State your current role, even if youre unemployed. The first question on every hiring manager’s mind is “What are you doing right now?” If you are working, you should have your current role listed on the first page with the date (month and year) that you entered the role. This is important to state on your resume. If you’re in school, you should have your program listed on the first page with your estimated date of completion so the employer knows when you will be available to enter a full-time role. If you’re doing neither, you can’t leave this question unanswered on your resume. Don’t go into details about your personal life, but express your situation in the most professional way possible. Many job seekers use terms such as: Personal Sabbatical, Medical Leave of Absence, Maternity/Paternity Leave, etc. 3. Talk about your achievements. Don’t list your daily responsibilities under your work experience. Everyone who has your job title completes those same responsibilities and also lists them on their resume. You want to stand out from that crowd. By describing your value-added achievements, you are personalizing your resume. This will also show the hiring manager that you are a proactive employee, rather than an employee who simply logs their eight hours a day without giving a second thought to how they can improve the company’s operations. 4. List your academic credentials. Almost every job on the market requires some level of completed education. Whether you went to school last year or a decade ago, it needs to be stated on your resume. If your education is the most relevant experience you have towards the role you are applying for, go into detail about what you learned, the courses you completed, and even the projects you submitted. If your experience outweighs your education, simply stating the program you completed and the school you attended will do the trick. 5. Get a professional format. After you’ve drafted all of this information, format the resume. Typed words on paper with a few underlines and page breaks are not enough. If your resume doesn’t look professional, you don’t look professional. There are free templates available online, and most word processors provide you with resume templates to work with. You can even ask your friends and family members what their resumes look like and get them to send over their format to you. All you have to do is delete their information and add yours! That’s it; those are the five must-haves on your resume. If you can’t muster up the motivation to at least knock these five off the list, then you shouldn’t waste your time applying for jobs. Your resume won’t get noticed among the hundreds of applicants, and you’ll find yourself in the same pickle you’re in now. So take a few minutes to complete these five must-dos on your resume. Your job search will thank you. Related: Take Credit: What Youre Not Including on Your Resume but Should Readers, what are the must-haves on your  resume?
