In Part 2 (this article), we'll probe more deeply into how to reverse this trend by simpli

“Who is that hot babe in the picture?” isn’t the type of reply an interviewer expects to hear when he or she invites you to ask questions near the end of an interview. In fact, the way you approach the Q&A session will have a direct impact on the interviewer’s perception of you. Based on the questions you ask, a judgment will be made in regard to how interested you seem to be in working for the company.For this reason, when you are forming questions ask yourself, What do I need to know about the company in order to determine if this is the workplace for me? How you answer this q

confusing at times. Here is a quick list of items to
remember:
1. Be in the present moment with whoever you are with.
Limit glancing around the room. It’s a sign that you are
looking for something better. There is nothing worse than
having a conversation with someone who is half there.
2. Being on time. This sounds so commonsensical. The
percentage of people being late is over 65 percent. Don't
push your time to the last minute before leaving the office
so you will be late. Take some reading or work with you,
arrive early, sit in the lobby, and work. Or give yourself
some space to think over how you want to approach the time
together. You introduction, tone, style, or even plan a
quick get away if the union isn't working. The memory

Good Job!So now that you’ve done your job and convinced Jane Doe to give to your non-profit organization, you’ve just processed the payment - now what?You could move on to other “important” things like making sure the coffee machine is stocked with fresh grounds and Jimmy has the new mechanical pencils he requested OR you could do something small that will make a huge impression on the new donor.Now Is The TimeThe most important time to make an impression on someone is right after they give to your nonprofit.

When I'm asked to enter an organization and help people talk things out, I'm often asked to fix things like this:Those two just can't get along. Would you see if you can help them get past their differences with one another. They don't seem to be very good communicators.One of our senior teams is in a real rut since a new VP came on board nine months ago. I don't think they like him and they're acting out. We could really use some clearing the air.We're trying to move the organization forward and we've got a few people who aren't good with c

Here's a list of the top 10 tips you can use to advance your career: 1. Don't be afraid to say "I don't know." If you don't know something, say so; don't try to fake it. 2. Take responsibility for your actions. If you're at fault, admit it and take the blame. If you're wrong, apologize. 3. Never gossip. Gossip can hurt the careers of two people: the person being talked about, and the person doing the talking. 4. Never say "That's not my job." Don't think you are above anything. Pitch

It’s the holiday season, and, with all the decking of halls, jingling of bells and lighting of candles, it’s getting harder and harder to keep your mind on work.What to do when business still must move forward, but your heart is really on wrapping presents, holiday parties, and relaxing by a chestnut-roasting fire?This is a time of year for reflecting, spending time with family, and taking in the sights and sounds of the holidays. I actually recommend that you do as much of that as possible. Yes, you must attend to your obligations, keep your business moving forward and d

3. Turn off your cell phone before entering the restaurant.
No one around you wants to hear your conversation. Even if
you let it ring, pick it up and then take it outside. Did
you leave your lunch companion alone? This is just plain
rude. If you have an "I don't care attitude" about this,
I'll tell you a story about a lunch guest of mine who did
this and the three prospects she was meeting didn't even sit
down. They saw her talk, she waved a 1-minute finger single
to them, and they turned around and walked out. They
wouldn't even answer her phone calls or emails afterwards.
4. If you are woman and this is business, it’s appropriate
now to stand up and shake the hand of a male. This
overrides
the old rule of staying seated. If the meeting is for your
spouse’s business and you are coming along because other
spouses are coming, then you stay seated as your spouse
stands up. This rules applies for either gender.
