A Packing Checklist for Business Trips
A Packing Checklist for Business TripsA Packing Checklist for Business TripsWhether your job requires frequent business travel or just the occasional overnight stay, keeping a list handy of what to pack will help you save time and minimize stress. Even though most major airlines now charge a separate fee to check your bag, it might be worth it. Airports are big and overhead compartments on airplanes fill up quickly. Business travel is stressful enough without the additional worries associated with lugging your bag through security and to the gate only to find out that the overhead compartment above your seat is already full and that your bag is being put in the back of the plane. Relax, check your bag, and consider it a worthwhile investment in you and your travel sanity. Basic Bottoms Whether you plan to wearpants or skirts while traveling for business, pick one basic color for your bottoms (black, brown or blue) and stick with it. This consistency will eliminate the need for mu ltiple pairs of shoes and belts in different colors. Dark colors are preferable as they dont show travel wear, tear, and dirt as easily. Jacket or Blazer Choose a basic, solid-color jacket or blazer that matches your basic bottoms color scheme. Tops, Blouses, and Sweaters Choose prints and solids that coordinate with your basic bottoms color scheme. A Travel Outfit If your travel days are long, consider packing a comfortable travel outfit and comfortable shoes for the trip home. Shoes Bring a maximum of one to two pairs of shoes. Select a style and heel height that will work with your basic wardrobe selections described above. If youll be doing a lot of walking while on your business trip, choose comfort over style. Underwear and Socks Pack enough for each day of your trip, plus two extra pairs of each. You never know when you might want to change clothes or just freshen up a bit. Pajamas Consider a pajama top style that buttons down the front so it can doubl e as a robe. Most robes are bulky and take up too much valuable space in your suitcase. Workout Clothes Pack one lightweight, quick-dry exercise outfit. Wash it out in the sink after each exercise session and hang it to dry. Toiletries Pack shampoo, conditioner, hairspray, facial cleanser, toothpaste, toothbrush, a razor, and make-up in resealable plastic bags or a toiletry bag.If youre traveling by air and not planning to check your bag, keep travel restrictions in mind. All liquids and gels must be smaller than 3 ounces and must be packed in quart-size plastic bags. Pack these bags in an outside pocket or on the top of your suitcase since youll need to remove them as you go through security checkpoints. Travel Documents distributions-mix airline reservations, hotel confirmations, and rental car confirmations in a separate folder for quick and easy reference. If you have these items on your phone or tablet, then bookmark the sites or flag the email confirmations for qui ck access. LaptopBag If youre traveling by air, make sure your laptop or tablet is easily accessible since youll need to remove it from your briefcase as you go through security. Dont forget yourpower cords and thumb drives. Cell Phone Charger Pack both a wall charger and a portable charger or power bank in case you need to charge your phone but dont have an outlet. Bring a car charger if youre traveling by car or will be renting one at your final destination. Office Supplies Pack pens, pencils, paper clips, sticky pads, and notenzeichenpads. Dont take an entire office supply store with you in your briefcase- just what you will actually need for your trip. Business Cards Replenish your supply of business cards before each business trip. You never know who you will meet. 10 x 13 Envelopes for Expense Receipts As you drop each receipt into your envelope, make a note on the front that includes date, expense amount and the reason for the expense. Doing this will help y ou save time when you submit your expense report and ensure you can easily find all of your receipts. Your Purse While most female travelers prefer tocarry a purse in addition to a briefcase, the general rule of thumb for business travel is to carry a small purse with minimal contents. Pack your ID, wallet, gum or mints, a small make-up bag, phone, and any medications you need. Small Travel Umbrella Pack this in the outside pocket of your suitcase so its accessible in the event it is raining when you arrive.

How stereotyping costs you business, engagement, and happiness
How stereotyping costs you business, engagement, and happinessHow stereotyping costs you business, engagement, and happinessWhen I was growing up parents didnt drive their kids to playdates or adventure sports. Your best friend was whoever lived closest to you. You knew where all your friends were by whose house had the most bikes in the front yard. You only went home to do homework which involved a book, notebook, encyclopedia and a pencil to watch the puppet part of Mr. Rogers, to eat meals, or at the end of the day when the streetlights went on.Back then your fun was climbing trees, holding crayfish, catching fireflies, watching trains flatten pennies on railroad tracks, and playing kickball on the four corners after dinner. Every neighborhood had a bully, a heartthrob, a mean girl, a nerd, a skinny kid who didnt fit in and a popular kid. I was the skinny kid who didnt fit in. You learned quickly who you could trust and who you couldnt.Fast forward to today where technology has impacted the way children grow up and the way companies do business. Children need not go to their friends house to play a game or telephone them to communicate. Distance learning transformed education. Telecommuting transformed the way we work. Audioconferencing transformed the way we meet. And technology eliminated some industries altogether. Exit stage left World Book Encyclopedia.Yet in todays world, as people revisit a simpler time with vinyl records on the rise and electronic book readers on the decline, there are some things that havent changed. Most companies have a bully, a heartthrob, a mean girl, a nerd, a skinny kid who doesnt fit in and a popular kid.The problemWe stereotype people because our minds need to have order. Humans are programmed to stay safe with a fight-or-flight mentality. This self-preservation mechanism served humanity well when dinosaurs roamed the earth. It is easier to metaphorically put people in a box with a label and store them safely away than to deal with fear that makes us uncomfortable. After all, there are more pressing issues that interest us. Enter stage right iPhone8.The costWhen we stereotype we discriminate. We become the judge and jury without a trial. The sentence most often is permanent and without bail. When a co-worker is labeled difficult or not management material we stop stewarding them to higher performance. When they realize their potential is limited they often underperform, drive others out of the organization, and become an attrition statistic.The solutionThe solution comes from Mr. Rogers theme song. When you are a good neighbor the doors of engagement open. Can you think, for a moment, about the last time someone called you a anthroponym? It hurt. You probably felt unfairly judged and powerless to undo it.Before you stereotype someone, pause. Put yourself in their shoes. Here you are their peer. Sometimes we dont want to imagine their perspective because it makes us feel defenseless. Remember, we migh t be eaten by the mammoth. But, in reality, being comfortable with our own vulnerability is a springboard to compassion for others and peace for ourselves. We separate the people from the problem, thus focusing on problem solving, not our position. Early in my career I was labeled The Divorcee with Four Kids until I shattered the goals every place I worked. Then I was labeled The Racehorse Get Out of Her Way. Ill take it.What we judge in others is often what we judge in ourselves. When you can set aside resenting a colleague because shes successful, you can learn from her. When you can set aside being annoyed by a leaders eruptions, you can build trust enough to ask what worries him.If you are the one being stereotyped it is virtually impossible to drop the label without calling attention to your intention to do so. Ask for an appointment individually with key people who have labeled you. Tell them you recognize that a negative perception exists. Tell them they would be doing you a huge favor if they would tell you what that perception is. Do not defend yourself. Tell them you understand and ask what they advise you to do to remedy this. Then thank them and say you will update them on your progress. They will be intrigued to be part of your transformation.In summary, make the most of this beautiful day by imagining your colleagues wear a big sign around their necks that reads, Wont you be my neighbor?Mary Lee Gannon, ACC, CAEis an executive coach and corporate CEO who helps busy leaders get off the treadmill to nowhere to be more effective, earn more, bemore calm and enjoyconnected relationships with the people who matter while it still matters.Watch her FREE Master Class training on Three Things to Transform Your Life and Career Right Now atwww.MaryLeeGannon.com.

5 Things You May Not Know About Working in the Insurance Industry
5 Things You May Not Know About Working in the Insurance Industry 5 Things You May Not Know About Working in the Insurance Industry According to an industry trend report, 63 percent of insurance companies plan to increase their staff sizes in the next 12 months. By 2020, there are projected to benearly 400,000 open positions in the insurance industry. The high number of openings - coupled with the fact that only about a third of all millennials have any interest in working in the industry - means there has never been a better time to consider a career in insurance.February is recognized throughout the industry as Insurance Careers Month, a chance for insurance companies to showcase the benefits of a career in the field. In light of the low levels of interest in insurance careers among young talent, now might be a good time to survey some of those benefits1. Jobs for All Professionals of All BackgroundsOne of the most appealing parts of working for an insurance company is the wide variety of jobs that are available across a very broad spectrum of career paths. For instance, an insurance company usually employs people in all the following areasAccounting and financeActuarial scienceAdministrationClaimsCustomer serviceData scienceHuman resourcesLegalMarketing and communicationsMedical (including clinical)OperationsProduct developmentSalesTechnologyProfessionals in virtually any function can also advance in the field to key management and executive-level positions. Regardless of your career path, there is a strong likelihood theres a job opportunity for you in insurance. Better yet, the compensation for jobs in the insurance industry often exceeds that of other entry-level jobs, with an average starting salary of mora than $50,000 per year.2. Commitment to Diversity and InclusionIndividuals of all backgrounds, languages, and economies need insurance.Because of this, professionals in the insurance industry often serve and work with a broad spectrum of people fro m across social groups.The insurance industry notlage only provides products and services to meet theneeds of diverse people, but its top employers also strive to cultivate very diverse workforces. In 2018, 69 percent of insurance executives felt diversity and inclusionwere important issues.3. Access to Professional Development OpportunitiesOne advantage of working for an insurance company is the high level of training and professional development companies in the field offer. You can expect to be thoroughly trained in all areas of insurance when you work at an insurance company. Topics your training may cover include understanding and administering Medicare benefits, understanding state health care regulations, and even learning some medical coding and billing practices, depending onyour specific role. Professional development is a priority in the industry, and you can expect to participate in continuing education, professional seminars and workshops, and other opportunities for gr owth within yourrole and the insurance field in general.4. Flexible SchedulingWorking from homeis an option for many in the insurance field. Insurance agents in particular tend to have a lot of control over their own work schedules. As freelancing and independent contracting grow in popularity, the insurance industry will only become even more responsive to workers demands for flexibility and work/life balance.5. A Strong Sense of PurposeThe insurance industry prides itself on being purpose-driven, and insurance professionals strive to make positive impacts on the individuals and communitiesthey serve. In fact, the Insurance Industry Charitable Foundation, a nonprofit thatpromotes and facilitates the charitable work of insurance organizations, has distributed more than $31 million in community grants and helped to arrange more than 300,000 volunteer hours by more than 110,000 insurance industry professionals since it was established 25 years ago.This high level of charitable giving makes sense, given that the coregoal of the insurance industry is to help people live better, healthier, safer lives. If you want a career that makes a difference, you would be hard-pressed to find a better industry for it than the insurance industry.Michael Z. Stahl is executive vice president of HealthMarkets.

You dont have to be a tech giant to recruit like one
You dont have to be a tech giant to recruit like oneYou dont have to be a tech giant to recruit like oneYou dont have to be a tech giant to recruit like oneWith companies like Amazon, Microsoft and Facebook seeming to monopolize all the top talent, it can feel like an insurmountable challenge to attract, recruit and retain tech workers to your companyespecially if technology is not your main business.After all, Big Tech has all the name recognition and prestige, not to mention countless positions for elite talent to choose from. As we all know, its a candidates marketand nowhere is that mora pronounced than in technology.But even if your business is a fraction of the size of the major players, or if youre not primarily in the technology space, there are recruiting strategies you can borrow from these mega companiesmany of which are easier for smaller-sized firms to employ when youre competing for top tech talent.Sell the opportunity to build somethingBig Tech gives their employees op portunities to innovate and build tools that millions of us use. But other companies give developers a chance to do something more palpable revolutionize their industry.Non-tech companies can compete by providing opportunities to create technology that directly impacts the growth and profitability of the company, says Ruben Moreno, HR practice leader at Blue Rock Search Group. In the tech community, its all about, What product am I working on?It pays to package the work of people, like software architects, as discrete projects with a beginning, middle and end that correlates with achievement.Whats attracting technology people to us as we go head to head with Google and Facebook is the project work, says Liz Gelb-OConnor, global head of employer brand and marketing at payroll processor ADP. What were creating gives people the ability to build something really new, to transform the industry and lead it.Its also critical for companies to prove that technology is critical to their missi on, so even if you dont seem like a technology-first business, make it clear that tech innovation is a priority to the companys bottom line.One way of proving that is by giving tech workers ample access to top brass. Many candidatesand often, these include employees of Big Techare frustrated by their lack of access to top management. So a client of Morenos emphasizes to candidates that they will have access to the VP and the CEO, and will be helping to create the product thats going to change the marketplace.Non-tech employers should prepare to talk with each candidate about the companys commitment toand investment intechnology, says Henry Boulos, executive vice president of tech search firm Talener.Emphasize opportunities for advancement Top talent will always be attracted to the known tech giants, but that attraction may not last. Some of the major players in the technology space have gotten so big that tech workers often feel siloed and limited in the opportunities available to t hem. That can create an opening for recruiters who represent employers that can offer more freedom of movement within an organization.People still want to work for Google, Apple and Facebook, but often, its to get that flag on their resume, says Moreno. After the flag is captured, many leave for a smaller company where they can move up quickly.In addition, peer-to-peer learning opportunities at smaller companies can play a major role as a means to advancement. Tech talent recognizes that collaboration may represent the greatest opportunity to expand their knowledge.One of the biggest advantages of working at ADP and why people stay is that they are learning from their peers, says Gelb-OConnor. This has been hugely important to drawing people and keeping them.The opportunity for flexibility and for career training can make smaller companies more appealing to new college grads as well. You dont have to leave our company to get different experiences or to build your skill set, says Aim ee George Leary, senior vice president at management consulting firm Booz Allen Hamilton.Booz Allens Summer Games program brings in up to 400 student interns to receiving intensive mentoring and coaching, meet with clients and go solve a problem, says Leary.Be flexible wherever you can beNon-tech companies are wise to do what the Big Tech has long done Be open to the broad and deep talent pool of highly skilled tech professionals who choose to work on contract.Everybodys looking at independent contractors right now, given the short supply of tech talent, Moreno says. So if youve only been looking to hire full-time permanent workers, consider contract employees instead.Also, give highly sought-after tech workers the kind of perks they expect from the big firms. (And no, we dont mean Ping Pong tables and nap pods.) Todays younger hires expect to be offered a package that includes remote work, autonomy and possibly even a job title that they create. People with young families want flex ibility and the kind of health insurance that competes with larger tech companies.Once upon a time, employees had to earn the privilege of perks like working remotely, but now, candidates want to know in advance that theyll be able to work from home one or two days a week, Boulos says.Candidates are deciding between you and the bigger firms, yes. But you might just have more to offer than even a Facebook or Google.

Never going to bed angry might cost you some sleep
Never going to bed angry might cost you some sleepNever going to bed angry might cost you some sleepMost couples spend nearly an hour and a half trying to settle their differences before bed, according to a new study.The age-old advice never go to bed angry was put to the test by Mattress Advisor, who surveyed over 1,000 people who were either engaged, married or in a serious relationship to find out how they handled unresolved disagreements at bedtime.Follow Ladders on FlipboardFollow Ladders magazines on Flipboard covering Happiness, Productivity, Job Satisfaction, Neuroscience, and moraThe study found that couples involved in disagreements averaged up to an extra hour and 20 minutes before going to bed. Those who generally resolved their issues wound up staying up 15 minutes less than those who werent able to.When disagreements were at their worst, researchers said couples stayed up for an extra two hours and 30 minutes. Couples who resolved bedtime disputes were up for nearly an extra half hour (27 minutes) less than the couples who typically didnt.Couples averaged two and half serious disagreements per month, but an average of one disagreement escalated into an argument, the study found.Rough nightBefore raising an issue that might spark a major fight, experts recommend trying to relax for about 20 minutes to see if your mood changes. Those moments of bliss could ease your tensions and potentially help you avoid a major blowout with your partner before bed, according to the survey.Specifics for what was considered major or minor fight topics were not given, as the survey allowed participants to interpret however they felt.It also turns out that those who said they followed the never go to bed angry rule were more than twice as likely to believe they had a better life than those who didnt abide by the rule.A study published in Nature Communications in 2016 found going to bed angry negatively effects you, as you are more likely to carry the grudge after you wake up instead of simply shaking it off.You might also enjoyNew neuroscience reveals 4 rituals that will make you happyStrangers know your social class in the first seven words you say, study finds10 lessons from Benjamin Franklins daily schedule that will double your productivityThe worst mistakes you can make in an interview, according to 12 CEOs10 habits of mentally strong people

Have a Good and Successful Music Promotion Campaign
Have a Good and Successful Music Promotion Campaign Have a Good and Successful Music Promotion Campaign Hiring a music public relations company to promote your project is a positive step, but you still need to be proactive, both before and after writing the check. Its not enough to sit back and wait to become famous. There are no guarantees that even the best PR campaign will be successful, but multiple actions you take or fail to take can help- or hurt- your campaign. Start out by researching available firms and asking the right questions. What other artists do they work for, what are their success stories, how do they prefer to communicate, etc. To get more bang for your buck once youve decided on a firm, keep several tips in mind. Providing Needed Materials Give the PR firm exactly what it asks for. A request for 50 promotional CDs out of their jewel cases should result in exactly that. Providing 100 copies in jewel cases with full liner notes because you thought it would be better just creates more work for the representatives handling your campaign. They request the things they need for a reason, so its best to defer to their expertise. That is why youre paying them. If your PR form asks for new photos, for you to update your site, or anything else, the sooner you do it, the sooner they can get to work. Providing Updates Booked a new show? Tell your PR company. Decide to release a single? Tell your PR company. Got your friend at the local paper to write a review? Tell your PR company. Dont expect representatives from your PR firm to keep up with your news via your website, newsletter, social networking platform, or anything else. No matter how much they like your music, you cant communicate with them like they are your fans. They need to be the first to know when something happens so they can use it to promote your music and so they arent confused when a journalist informs them about some news they werent aware of. Staying Out of the Way If you have a personal relationship with someone in the news media and you think an email from you would be better than an email from your PR company, then tell your PR company that you will cover that person so they dont. Otherwise, dont try to jump in the mix, follow-up with people that your PR company has approached about your project, or anything else. Let the firm youve hired take the lead on sending press releases and making other contacts. Youre paying your PR firm to do a job. You need to stay out of the way and let them do it. Trust that they are the experts with the best contacts and proven strategies that work. Journalists get tons of emails and calls daily from people looking for coverage or reviews. It doesnt help to double up. An email from you when your PR company already has reached out will almost always be confusing, annoying, and detrimental to your chances of getting the coverage you want. At best, youll put the journalist and the PR company in an awkward position. At worst, youll annoy someone so much youll help them decide once and for all to not write about you. Being Available Nothing is worse for a PR company than to set up an interview for one of their clients and then to get a call from the writer that no one answered the phone or answered the email questions or showed up for the interview. You may not get another chance, so if you tell your PR company you can available at a certain time, do it. Be flexible. If the PR company is expected to book interviews or any other appearances, be as accommodating with your time as you can. Its OK to have certain times that are off-limits or to have other commitments but communicate about your schedule with the representatives from your PR firm so they know when they can book you with confidence. Being Patient and Realistic PR campaigns can move slowly, and some may end up not moving at all. Brainstorming about new approaches with your PR company is a good thing. However, remember to be patient and realistic about how your campaign is coming along. Any number of factors, including the time of year of the campaign, the other releases or artists youre competing with, how early you started your campaign, and whether or not this is your first big PR push can affect the success and speed of success of your campaign. Youll have a much smoother relationship with your PR company if you work with them to develop a plan to try to tackle your obstacles instead of expecting them to magically make your obstacles disappear.

How To Spot A Bad Boss During An Interview
How To Spot A Bad Boss During An Interview How To Spot A Bad Boss During An Interview Learn how to spot a poor boss during an interview to weed out bad job offers.An interview is typically seen as a stepping stone in the process of getting a job. This is where you will be asked questions about your experience, tested on your knowledge, and allowed to show off your charisma. While this is a time for you to prove yourself as a worthy candidate, this interview is not just for you, itâs also for your boss. The interview is your time to figure out if this company is going to be a good fit for you. Having a bad boss can make work stressful, often leading to you searching for another job sooner, rather than later. If you take the time to ask questions about the company, the work environment, etc., you can easily weed out the good from the bad. So how do you go about doing this?Ask questions.You can often easily get a feel for the boss and the company culture by asking the right questions. You want these questions to come off as interest in the company and the day-to-day w ork experience, and not like an interrogation. If you ask questions that are too direct, you may sound like you are disinterested in the position. Direct questions are also more likely to get you false answers. Instead, ask questions that will help you get a feel for the company culture. Ask what a typical work day is like. Ask about opportunities for learning new skills and broadening your knowledge. How the interviewer answers these questions will provide you with a lot of information. Is the interviewer engaging and willing to enter a dialogue about your questions? Or are they brushing your questions off with short, noncommittal answers?Look at attitude.How the interviewer approaches the interviewee will tell you a lot about how they approach the work environment. Is the interviewer focusing on themselves more than the job itself and the company? This shows the boss will most likely be a bad leader. He will probably be more focused on his own ideas, and less on the ideas that yo u want to bring to the table. If he interrupts you during an interviewer to provide his own feedback or to correct you, this also shows that he would probably be difficult to work with. If an interviewer is already showing a lack of respect for you during the interview, before you are an employee, chances are the lack of respect will get worse once you are actually within the company.Professionalism is important.Look at how seriously the interviewer takes his job, as well as the job you are applying for. While there is leeway here, depending on what type of work environment you are searching for, there is always a line that can be crossed when it comes to professionalism. Is the interviewer late responding to emails, phone calls, or showing up to the interview? This will probably translate over into the work environment, as well.Meet potential co-workers.The best way to get an unbiased look at a company is through the people that are already working there. The interviewer is trying to sell the company to you, making it seem like a great working environment and ideal position. If you are a seasoned worker, you know that most working environments are not completely ideal. Talk to potential co-workers who would work under the same boss. Ask them what it is like working for that boss, what are some challenges theyâve faced, etc.Research.You should always be doing research about a company before the interviewer, so that you can show interest in the company and the position. But this is also an opportunity for you to find out information about the company and its employees that arenât on the company website. Look up the online profiles of the manager you will be working for, as well as the profiles of people who used to work for him. This is where you will be able to see if the company has a high-turnover rate- something that should be a big red flag. This means that company has a hard time keeping employees, pointing to an issue within the company. You can als o reach out to former employees and ask them about their experiences working for the company.

The Best Font Styles and Size for Email
The Best Font Styles and Size for Email The Best Font Styles and Size for Email What you write in your email messages is the most important thing. But you might be surprised how much your font style and size matters as well. Its important to select a font that is clean, uncluttered, and easy to read. You dont need to settle for the default font in your email program. But at the same time, youll want to stay away from novelty fonts - such as ones that look like handwriting - which can make your email appear unprofessional. Using the right font is an unobtrusive choice that can help your message get through. Get tips to help you make the right choices. Select the Right Font Size Make your font large enough so that the reader doesnt have to squint to read the message, but not so large that the reader has to scroll too far to read the entire message. Depending on how long your text is, a 10-point or 12-point font size is optimal. Yes, the recipient can change the font size in the email, but you shouldnt force them to do that. The Best Font Styles for Email Stick to the classics. Familiar fonts like Arial, Verdana, Calibri, and Times New Roman all work well. You may find that your program uses one of these as the default font. If not, they will be among the choices available in the program. Remember that different email programs have different displays, and an unusual font that works well in your program may be tough to read or even strangely formatted in another program. Avoid fancy fonts that look like handwriting or script fonts, and any novelty font such as Comic Sans. You may find it attractive but the recipient may find it hideous, unreadable, or both. No matter which font you choose, be consistent throughout the message in both style and size. Switching between Arial and Times New Roman, or among type sizes, is jarring for readers. Selecting a Font No matter which email program you use, you can usually select a font and a font size for your message in either of these two ways: After you create a new message, select the font style and font size you want from the options available in the program. Font style and font size will be displayed among other options in a strip of clickable icons at the top or bottom of the message box. Click on the font style icon, and then click on your choice on the list that pops up. Then do the same for the font size.Create the message and enter your text. Then highlight the entire text, and click on your selections for font style and font size. There are plenty of other options in that strip of icons, and for the purposes of business email, you probably want to ignore them all. Italicized text and boldface text are unnecessary flourishes in business communications. Playing with background colors or text colors will make you look like you have too much time on your hands. The Right Spacing for Messages Using spaces properly also makes your message more readable. Add a line of space after the greeting, a line between each paragraph, and lines before and after the signature on your message. Having this white space makes it easier for readers to absorb text. (Another handy way to introduce white space and make your email easy to scan and read is to use bullet points to break up long paragraphs.) Heres how to space your email message. Test Your Email Once you find a font style and size that you think looks good, proofread it. Then send a copy to yourself and proofread it again. Once youre sure youve made the right selections, you can start using your new email font. What About Your Signature? Although in general you want to use one font consistently throughout your email, it is acceptable to have your signature appear in a different font style and size. Often, signatures include the persons name in a larger font size, and potentially bolded as well. Get more advice on how to set up a professional email signature, including what to include in your signature - and what to leave off.

9 Tips to Make Your LinkedIn Profile Stand Out - Resumonk Blog
9 Tips to Make Your LinkedIn Profile Stand Out - Resumonk Blog 9 Tips to Make Your LinkedIn Profile Stand Out There are ways to boost your LinkedIn profile so you can network with more people. We live in an age where being social on the internet is incredibly common - for some careers, itâs even expected. More than likely, you have numerous social accounts, from Facebook to Instagram and everything in between. You probably also have a LinkedIn account. While all of these social sites have their purpose and ways to connect with others, itâs important to remember that they donât all function the same. LinkedIn is supposed to be your professional site, where you connect with business associates and look for jobs. Like Facebook, you can post on LinkedIn but remember to keep it professional. Unlike Facebook, you probably donât spend a lot of time on LinkedIn. You probably visit it sporadically, when youâre looking for a job or adding a new professional contact youâve met at a meeting or conference. You may not always be looking for a new job, but that doesnât mean your dream job isnât out there looking for you. By keeping your LinkedIn profile up to date, potential employers can find you, and it allows you to grow your personal brand. Below are nine tips to help you get your LinkedIn profile in shape and ready for action: 1. Keep Your Profile Up to Date and Active As life gets busy, itâs easy to let your profile slip through the cracks - especially if you arenât actively looking for a new job. However, if you are using the site as a way to connect with other professionals, ensure those people know what you do and how good you are it. Make sure that the industry you work in is correct, as well as your location. By keeping these current, it will help people find you. Creating a professional headline is what entices people to click on your profile and learn more about you. While itâs perfectly acceptable to have a headline that highlights your current job position, you can also be creative. Do you have an accomplishment or award youâd like to highlight? This could be the place. Or list traits that would show up in a search. Whatever you decide, make sure it is something that makes people want to learn more about you. Keep your profile active by sharing high quality articles related to your industry as frequently as possible on your LinkedIn profile. Most of the websites have Share buttons these days, and you can click on the LinkedIn share button to post that article directly on your profile. Or you can choose to share the article from your LinkedIn account itself. Youll see the share text box on the Home tab after you sign-in to your LinkedIn account. Paste the URL of the article youd like to share in this text box: Remember Activity is the first section that is shown on your LinkedIn profile. The kind of articles shared by you showcase your interests, knowledge and tell the viewer if you are up to speed with the latest happenings in your industry. 2. Use a Professional Photo Yes, LinkedIn is a social site, but itâs a professional social site, so donât put up photos of yourself with your pets or family or doing shots at the bar - these are better left to Facebook. It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words, and the right picture can lead to your profile getting more views. 3. Personalize Your Page With a Background Photo If your profile looks like everyone elseâs profile, itâs going to get lost in the shuffle. By adding a background photo, you add a touch of personalization and make it stand out from the rest. Again, this needs to be something professional, but it can also show off your personality or highlight part of your profession. 4. Make Your Summary Shine In a way, LinkedIn is an electronic version of your resume, but it can be leveraged as so much more. You have the ability to highlight more of your accomplishments here than you do on paper. Write in the first person on this page, and let your personality show through while you talk about what makes you good at your job. When creating your summary, keep a few things in mind: Donât add a lot of jargon and buzzwords. It shows a lack of creativity. Watch out for grammar issues. Nothing looks more unprofessional than mistakes on your page. Use keywords correctly. This will help others find you when conducting a search. 5. Donât be Afraid to Get a Little Personal Donât get too personal, but let people know there is a person behind the business. Share some things you like to do in your free time or what youâre passionate about. If you work with charities or volunteer, add those to your profile - LinkedIn has sections for you to do this. To add your volunteer experience to your profile, go to the Add New Profile section, which is on the right-hand side of your page. Click on the down arrow to open a new menu that lists the various sections you can add and choose click on the plus sign next to Volunteer experience: That will open a new menu that will allow you to add your experience to your page. 6. Add Media to Your Profile LinkedIn offers you the ability to add media to your descriptions. Itâs already been mentioned that a picture is worth a thousand words, so how many is a video worth? Or what about a document that highlights your achievements? Adding media to your profile could make your profile stand out from others and increase the number of people viewing it. It allows you to showcase your creativity. I have added various posts that highlight my writing. Hereâs how to add media to your profile: Decide which section you would like to add the media to - Summary, Experience or Education - then click on the pencil icon to get into the edit mode. When the dialogue box pops up, the Media option will be at the bottom of the page. Click the box to add a link or upload a document. To add a link, paste it into the dialogue box and then click Add. 7. Highlight Your Writing Ability LinkedIn now offers the ability to write and publish on their platform. Make sure the content is appropriate for what you are trying to highlight, but this gives you the opportunity to talk about your industry and what you do. You can also link a WordPress blog to your profile. This is how the Articles Activity section shows up on your profile. 8. Join Groups One of the best ways to find others who think like you do and who talk about the same subjects is to join groups. This allows you to make connections in your field and find out what others are up to. It will also help you create leads for your business. Hereâs how to find and join groups on LinkedIn: At the top of your profile page is an icon called Work. Click on the arrow to open the dropdown icon, then select Groups. After clicking on the Groups icon, it will take you to a new page. Once there, click on the Discover button to see groups suggested for you based on your profile. Once you find a group youâd like to join, request access by clicking on the âAsk to joinâ button. 9. Be Excited and Welcoming The purpose of LinkedIn is for you to highlight your professional skills and network with like-minded people. As with any social group, itâs important to be nice to others and excited about being there. Your enthusiasm and excitement will draw in others and widen your professional network and business contacts. With so many social sites on the web, it can be difficult to get noticed and find others who share your interests and passions. Keeping your LinkedIn profile up to date, interesting and discoverable by others will increase your chances of being found. It could also land you that dream job youâve been looking for. p.s. You can convert your LinkedIn profile to a beautiful resume quickly using Resumonk.

Why You Should Always Ask for a Written Job Offer - Always!
Why You Should Always Ask for a Written Job Offer - Always! Why You Should Always Ask for a Written Job Offer - Always! Youâve been job searching for months. Your patience is exhausted, and so are you. Thatâs why itâs so important to be careful when you finally get that all-important call from your dream company offering you a job. Why? Because you might find yourself tempted to accept it right there on the spot. Not so fast. Yes, itâs completely understandable why you would be thrilled and relieved but keep one thing in mind before accepting: itâs crucial that you ask for a written job offer before you verbally accept a position â" even if itâs one that youâve been waiting for all your life. Why is it so important to have a written job offer? Until you actually see the contract in writing, you really have no idea of what youâre getting. You might have a sense of what your base salary will be, but little else. Salary, of course, is very important but you also need to know the other parts of the job offer such as health insurance, vacation days and if applicable, maternity leave. All of these add up and you need to know what is really offered â" or isnât â" before you say yes. Letâs say you find out later that your job offer didnât include basic short-term disability insurance, youâve already put yourself in a poor position to renegotiate your contract. (For those that are wondering, companies really never negotiate on insurance, but if it isnât offered in a written contract, you can use it as leverage to ask for a higher base salary.) If you say yes, and then try to go back and pretend you now have to reconsider the job offer, youâve shown your poker hand already. What to say when the call comes. You need to prepare mentally to handle the silence after the offer call comes in and not fill it with a big YES of acceptance. What should you say instead? Something along these lines will work, âIâm thrilled to hear back from you and I canât wait to look over the details in the written offer. When would you need my response? This works 9 out of 10 times. However, you might come across a pushy HR representative who really presses you for a verbal acceptance before they draw up the paperwork for you. In fact, some companies wonât send an official offer without a verbal acceptance. We donât know of any company where this is actually an HR policy and weâre not sure what the motivation is behind this type of behavior, but when handling this situation, you should be mindful of your language. Reassure the HR representative that youâre enthusiastic about the position but that youâre just looking to get a feel for the details of the job offer before you formally accept. If this doesnât work, you can say, âAs of now, I see no reason not to accept this job, but I would feel more comfortable with a written offer in my hand.â Rules vary by state on verbal contracts and they can be tricky business. The problem with at-will employment in the U.S. isnât so much about being unable to back out of a job, but more about being unable to negotiate terms. As long as you keep your wits about you and know to ask for a written offer before accepting a job, in most cases, the HR representative will send it along happily and allow you some time to think it over before you give a response. So, take a deep breath when you get that call and be prepared to negotiate.

Term Limits Definition
Term Limits Definition Term Limits Definition Term limits are restrictions on how long a particular person can serve in a political office. Term limits can be expressed in the number of terms in office or years of service. Term limits can also specify whether a person may serve in the same office once term limits have been reached and the individual has laid out of an election cycle. Why Are Term Limits? Imposed? Term limits are imposed so that one person cannot hold an office for life and so a variety of people can serve. Proponents of term limits point to lifetime members of Congress as examples of why term limits are preferable to no term limits. Congress members who face little re-election competition appear to term limit proponents as unresponsive to voters and susceptible to the temptation of corruption. Opponents of term limits say term limits force out good politicians with the bad, unnecessarily limit voter choice and increase the power of lobbyists and bureaucrats. Term limits also reduce the institutional knowledge that elected officials can build up. For instance, an elected official limited to two four-year terms cannot know precisely why a law enacted 10 years earlier was passed. Examples of Term Limits The 22nd Amendment to the US Constitution limits the President to serving 10 years in office. The amendment was ratified in 1951. Franklin D. Roosevelt is the only President to have served more than two four-year terms. He served more than 12 years before dying in office.Ancient Athenians who served on the Boule were limited to two annual terms in a lifetime. They could only head that governing body for one term.
