Digg it UP - Managers, Do You Lie to Them?
Competence, Behavioural or Situational Interviews are where the interviewer is looking for specific evidence of a particular set of abilities or competences. It may sound complicated or even daunting but these are actually the easiest interviews to prepare for.As with the standard interview the competence-based interview will often start with a "background review" to g
I know a woman in her sixties. She worked for a company for a little more than a decade as an administration and office assistant for a staff of one hundred sales people, who loved her dearly. She always made sure all the faxes got to their desks; the stationery stock was full and each staff member had what he needed.Beyond her job description, she was like a mother to
Since the delivery person seemed to be such a positive and enthusiastic person, I was taken aback by his comments. It made me wonder if employees in general feel this way about their managers or if this was an isolated case. After some thought, I realized that it’s no wonder in today’s business environment that employees are not manager’s biggest fans. In fact, managers have been battling an “us vs. them” attitude for years.
There are a few things in life that must have other things working with them to work right.Let’s take baseball for example. Baseball is a great sport and a great game. There are many elements to making it “America’s Pastime”, however there is one above all others.Gravity.You cannot play baseball without gravity. It just does not work. It wouldn’t be baseba

Change is critical to your success and happiness. I cringe to think what might happen in our lives if we don't allow ourselves the opportunity to make the appropriate changes. Sure, we can pretend that we don't need to change, that there is nothing wrong with our lives. Then, however, we soon forget the consequences of not taking action and making the changes we know we
Being in business for yourself is tough. It gets really hard when you come to realize that you need to make a significant change to the way you do business and this change will impact the customer. Perhaps the change is an increase in price, or a change to the way you extend terms, or maybe your product line has to be updated.When this happens, owners will formulate w
