Have you considered finding a mentor to give your career a boost? Thought about sharing your skills and knowledge with an up-and-coming star in your field? Here are some helpful tips for finding — or being — a great mentor. 1. It’s all about relationships There’s a fine line between “bold” and “awkward.” Walking up to a stranger you’ve admired from afar and asking them to be your mentor is almost as off-putting as asking someone to marry you on the first date.

Six Traits of the Next Generation of Leaders

Posted by Britanie in Business ‐ 0 Comments
As large numbers of Baby Boomers transition into retirement, organizations have seen a leadership gap emerge as well. A recent study by CareerBuilder.com and Harris Poll found that corporate leaders are increasingly worried that there are “not enough good leaders within the organization.” It’s a worry with huge implications as the workforce ages and current leaders retire with few qualified younger contenders for their positions. Without good leadership, even the strongest company can flounder. However, regardless of what stage you are in in your career, there is good news; this… Read more

Is Your Company Irresistible to Jobseekers?

Posted by Britanie in CEO ‐ 0 Comments
The best companies attract the best people. It’s a concept as irrefutable as the laws of gravity. Even in industries where employers typically have their pick of top talent, becoming an employer of choice has become increasingly important; more and more companies have come to understand that attracting and retaining top talent can give them the edge they need in today’s competitive business landscape.

The time has come to hire your first employee. Congrats. Now, what? While finding the right employee might seem simple- it isn’t. Each company has a different culture, which can impact standard duties and job requirements. Here are our tips for hiring the right first employee. Start with not trusting your instincts. This is business, not friendship. Nearly 40 percent of all job applications and resumes include bogus or inflated facts when not accompanied by a firm like ours (which vets for this type of stuff).

Selling your company to a potential employee is just like a sales person sells a company’s products or services to clients. This said, the approach on either end of the spectrum should be the same. What do I mean? Well, let’s review; 1. Don’t over talk. You shouldn’t have to convince… Read more
