		<title>To Stay at Your Electrifying Best&#8230;Pull the Plug</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
No matter if it&#8217;s voice mail, email, your Blackberry, a text, your next meeting or perhaps  even an letter delivered the old fashioned way &#8211; in an envelope with a stamp, every once in a while you have to pull the plug and scream an obscenity ridden with &#8211; ENOUGH!
What a concept&#8230;&#8230; becoming unattainable for some degree of time.
I was looking around a website belonging to Harrison Barnes, the Job Guru, and caught his article &#8220;The Importance of Disconnecting from Your Work.&#8221;  That&#8217;s exactly what he&#8217;s promoting and ...

		<title>Scams by the Elite Are Still a Scam</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
A sensitive but timely topic in the media is about those in important and powerful positions who abuse their status and role, and intentionally or not, violate the moral and civil codes of ethics, and yet expect to be exonerated because of who they are and what they do. Take a look at &#8220;Rash of Scandals Tests Democrats at Sensitive Time&#8221; to get the details on the dirt.
The above is premised on a recent New York byline regarding the NYS Governor, among other politicians, who finds himself embroiled in an ...

My wife’s a lovely lady.  You got to meet her.  Today we visited the dean at the high school my daughter will attend this fall.  Now you have to picture my wife.  You get her talking about any one of our three daughters (one of her favorite topics in the world) and she’s on a role.  You want details.  She has them.  You have to realize, she goes way back with these folks.

I wasn’t able to get a word in during today’s meeting, ...

		<title>Two Hidden Problems With Your Resume</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
Here&#8217;s a question I get in one form or another almost every week: &#8220;I&#8217;ve sent out 50 resumes and not had any job interviews. What&#8217;s wrong with my resume?&#8221;
Answer: There may indeed be a problem with your resume, and I&#8217;ve been writing about effective resumes for more than 10 years, so I invite you to Google that subject to learn what I think.
But wait.
If you&#8217;re sending resumes to employers and not getting callbacks, there may be two other problems you&#8217;re overlooking: sending resumes to the wrong person, and sending them ...

		<title>How Would You Illuminate Clueless, Disconnected CEOs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
I have been pleasantly surprised with the episodes of “The Undercover Boss” I’ve watched.  The well-to-do CEO shrugs off the golf clubs, chic expensive cars, cushy lifestyle, expensive suits and jewelry, even if only for a week, to mingle and, alas, work alongside their company’s employees.
Talk about timing given the bad press some other CEOs have been receiving particularly during and post senate hearings.  How can they expect sympathy when they have the audacity to show up in corporate jets, whining about how they cannot afford to not pay bonuses ...

Leading a team of people on any project can be a bear.  Running a small business with differing skills, personalities, backgrounds, genders and competing interests can be just plain difficult.  It seems like piling any group of people together in hopes of getting a job done is a hopeless cause. But if you:

develop a keen understanding of how individuals behave within a team and
dearn to motivate individuals towards a common goal

you’ll develop a reputation for being a team leading genius that delivers the results your company badly needs.
