They will need to determine the source of the difference, wheth
It’s very hard to become a “star” without others helping you along the way. You will need a strong support system. Work on your ability to live in harmony with your fellow associates. Don’t be a loner. Get involved in the good “politics”.
Risks are always involved. Everyone who moves UP the ladder encounters some real challenges. Your fellow associates may be jealous of your
What a great title for an article on communication, don't you think? LoBo recorded this song in the 70s about hanging out and traveling around the country in a car, just going wherever and however the spirit moved.That pretty much sums up the free-flowing way most of us communicate. We stay with topics for as long as they interest us, and we move on when they don't. Communicating effectively can be one of your greatest assets when you're running a small business. Inef
An important suggestion is to be very careful with whom YOU keep company. Select your MODEL or “confident” carefully. Do not think that everyone has YOUR best interest at heart.
AMBITION GETS NOTICED
Speak UP when the opportunity presents itself. Don’t be afraid to contribute your best. Let others know your desire and expectation to be a contributor of your talents and skills whenever needed.
Consider yourself a valuable asset to your new department or your new boss. Let it be known that you are willing and able to take on a challenge. Move beyond the usual employee with little ambition. Do it with kindness, yet don’t hold back in fear of what others in the department will say or think.
SOME WRONG STEPS
First, move forward with your plan but never RUN OVER your fellow associates. You don’t have to nor will it be in your best interest. There’s an old saying that the “cream” rises to the TOP. It’s automatic. You’ve seen it in your past experiences and it will happen in your new job. Count on it!
Unfortunately, some new employees get in the “wrong” peer group. Join the wrong “bunch” at the water cooler. Too much gossip. A powder keg of explosives waiting to blow. Not a good place for you. Stay in your corner away from this bad influence.
Every office has the rumor mill. Sharing “secrets” that everyone knows. Talking in hushed tones and looking for trouble. RUN! FAST! NOW!
Associate with those who are focused on the business. Working! Giving a fair return to your employer. Miss the dirt dished out by these folks. Most of it is little more than sour grapes and often deserved by the goof-offs.
DON'T BADMOUTH THE BOSS --
Keep in mind that your BOSS may hold the key to your success. He or She may be your best advocate. Encourager. Cheerleader in your corner. Even if YOU are “smarter” (in your opinion) you are not the boss (yet!)
GROUP SUPPORT
Are you a player? Do you work well with your peers? Can you share the glory and success of a job well done? Is that who you are? “Smart” managers will be aware of how you get along with your fellow associates.

This article discusses one of the most overlooked employer education tax incentive, Section 127 plans.Section 127 allows employers to create a program for providing employee education (up to $5,250 per year per employee), while permitting the employer a deduction and allowing the employees to exclude the amounts from their taxable income.Absent a Section 127 pla

Are you looking for new writing work? It can be a challenge to build a career in any area, but it is often even harder to do so when you are in a smaller town. Sure, there may be a huge market for talented freelancers in your area, but let’s face it, it is not New York where you can find countless job vacancies in your field of freelance writing. When you are looking for freelance writing work, it is important to look outside the box as well as trying the tried and true empl

Most professionals are constantly developing new skills – usually technical in nature. New technologies are constantly being developed and accomplished professionals have to continually learn to keep up with them.

Risks are always involved. Everyone who moves UP the ladder encounters some real challenges. Your fellow associates may be jealous of your talent or ability. They can see you as too ambitious. Keep on doing. Be a mover and shaker.
Tackle the big tasks. Get beyond your comfort zone. Risk failure. You cannot play it safe and expect to get ahead of the pack. Show your courage in presenting NEW ideas to management even if you get knocked down.
DO NOT OVER-PROMISE
Be an eager “beaver” but watch your step. Everyone loves a volunteer. Don’t take on more than you can do. Limit your project commitments to a sure thing. You don’t want to be known as “all talk” and an unreliable performer.
Be able to finish every project and make it a “wow” kind of result. Know your limits and be sure you are not stepping into a “minefield” for disaster.
Action Tip: Self-promotion is GOOD for your career. The ambitious person gets noticed and advances UP the corporate ladder. Volunteer only for challenging jobs with a “wow” finish. Never over-promise. Be a reliable source. Go beyond your comfort zone. Give credit due associates. Be a risk taker. Avoid the water-cooler gossip losers.
