5 Tips To Ace Your Next Job Interview

July 28, 2022

Preparing for an upcoming job interview can be nerve-wracking.

You want to put your best foot forward, impress your potential employer, and leave that interview with a firm yes as to whether or not employers will hire you.

If you’ve been on a few interviews recently and haven’t gotten any offers yet, it might be time to work on improving your performance before your next one.

Why Employers Still Value Grit

June 12, 2019

Grit is a quality we don’t often talk about these days. It seems somehow old fashioned and a bit harsh. But grit (or determination) is vital for success in today’s workplace, both for the individual and the team at large. Someone with grit never gives up, no matter how hard the stakes get.

That can be at a personal level, perhaps as an athlete. But we would also recognize grit as camaraderie and working for a higher good, despite whatever insecurities or hardships the individual is experiencing. That’s why we often think of soldiers when we hear the word grit. World War II was full of tales of grit and courage in the face of the adversity.

Want to feel More Appreciated & Valued at Work? Here is How!

June 29, 2017

You go to work happy. Do everything within your power to meet the end of your bargain – do your job!

And your boss or employer never deems it fit to acknowledge your hard work and input.

This is not to say that you are carrying out your job because you hope to be rewarded or praised. I think as humans we just want to feel appreciated.

We want someone to notice that we put in some time to make some achievements.

I get it.

You get it!
