  Lonely at the Top: What Are You Going to Do About It?
by Suzanne Bates - Feb, 2010
I’m not one to preach when it comes to finding people to help me. Prior to launching my business ten years ago I was a television reporter so I didn’t make decisions that had an impact on other people. I was surrounded by people all day long, in the newsroom and on my assignments, so I certainly didn’t feel lonely. Once you start a business or get promoted to run something, everything changes. I would guess most leaders ...
 
  How Employers Behave When There Are More Workers Than Jobs
by Ford R. Myers - Feb, 2010
When there are many more workers than job openings, employers behave differently than they do in a healthy employment market. This is largely because the locus of control shifts from candidates to employers, and employers will have the sense that they can “call the shots.” These dynamics can pose serious challenges for job seekers. Under these circumstances, here are some of the typical challenges job seekers will face at many...
 
  How to Help Your Child Transition Successfully from College to Career: A Guide For Parents
by Ford R. Myers - Feb, 2010
Over the past year, we’ve received a number of phone calls from parents of recent college graduates. This is unusual for two reasons: (1) we don’t usually work with clients in their twenties; and (2) these parents are seriously concerned about their children’s ability to start careers. Indeed, many parents are now paying our career coaching fees, to ensure that their kids will have every advantage in the transition from school...
 
  Seven Truths of Career Success
by Ford R. Myers - Feb, 2010
1. The most qualified candidate does not necessarily get the job offer. Many times, candidates with lesser qualifications get job offers simply because they’ve prepared and presented themselves in a more compelling way. They “package” themselves better, with an outstanding portfolio of career documents and oral presentation skills. The winning candidate is the one who knows how to tie his or her achievements, strengths and ...
 
  The Best Time to Update Your Resume
by Ford R. Myers - Feb, 2010
As Summer Turns to Fall... Summer has traditionally been a fairly slow season for job seekers. In previous issues of “Your Career Advocate,” we’ve discussed how to take advantage of the “Summer Job-Search Doldrums,” and actually use this period to your advantage! Many clients have taken our advice to heart, and have generated great successes throughout the Summer months. As we mentioned a year ago in “Your Career Advocat...
 
  Figured Out The Trick To Career Success? The Magic’s Up Your Sleeve
by Dawn Lennon - Feb, 2010
Success is out there—somewhere. We watch others achieve it, but not us. They don’t seem any smarter than we are. So what’s the trick? We assume the answer’s in all those how-to books, so we read them. We go to presentations by celebrated experts, follow bloggers, and invest in webinars. These are all good things to do, but... No one can tell you how to get the success you want. Why? They aren’t you! We’re all in the s...
 
  Getting There
by Suzanne Bates - Feb, 2010
“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” - Lao-tsu, Chinese philosopher (604 BC - 531 BC) A few weeks ago, I was having a heart to heart with a CEO needs to get out his office more often. He wants to become an ambassador for his company. More accurately, he knows he needs to. Like many bosses, he would rather stab himself repeatedly in the thigh with a sharp pencil than give a speech or interview to a...
 
  How Happy Are You At Work?
by Marcia Robinson - Feb, 2010

The latest report shows sharp decline from 1987 to 2009 in the following four key indicators of workers' job satisfaction: • 18.9% decline in interest in their work • 16.5% decline in job security • 11.6% drop in interest in the people at work • 9.5% drop in satisfaction with their supervisors at wor...
 
  Living the Dream
by Kris Plantrich - Feb, 2010
Living the dream is what the Olympians of the 2010 Winter Olympics are doing during the next couple of weeks. But the dream for them was born 5, 10 or even 15 years ago and has been achieved through countless hours and years of hard work, failure, tears, injury, smiles, joy, and triumph. Each Olympian has their own unique story but they all have one common goal — to be the best they can be. I think that is why we are so dra...
 
  Managing The Trick Question
by Karen Burns - Feb, 2010
A loyal reader writes with this intriguing dilemma: How do you respond when a manager says they understand your job can be a bit boring and repetitive? This conversation was at an informal networking event. I responded by saying it’s challenging in some aspects but there are interesting parts. Is it okay to admit it is boring? Ah, those tricky little “innocent” questions. You can make yourself crazy with them. It’s ...
