College Graduates Need A Budget by Bob Roth - Jun, 2011 When students graduate from college and begin to work and earn a salary, it makes sense for them to establish a budget. Unfortunately, that process can be both eye opening and frustrating. That is because most young adults will not earn enough money to pay for everything they think they need. “Budget: A mathematical confirmation of your suspicions.” -- A. A. Latimer The first realization will be that employees do not ... |

How to be “Great on the Job,” a review by Miriam Salpeter - May, 2011 Communication — and communicating well, in business and in all circumstances — is key for career success.

Known as a strong, strategic communicator with many successful examples to back up her words, Jodi, who’s landed jobs due to her interviewing skills, even though sh... |

Harvard business blogger Ron Ashkenas wrote an article in December in the Harvard Business Review that a key to minimizing regret regarding your work-life balance (or lack thereof) is to consciously choose the tradeoffs you're willing to make to achieve personal and professional success. Absent that, we're likely over the years t... |

Critical Thinking by Suzanne Bates - May, 2011 Many years ago as a young, single professional, I got this idea that I should put down roots. Although I was a carpet bagging television reporter moving from city to city every two or three years, I found a condo in Tampa that I loved and couldn’t afford. Though I was likely to leave town before a year or two was out, I really wanted to buy it. My dad happened to be coming for a visit so I took him to see the place. As we st... |

Mochi Balls by Emily Chardac - May, 2011 Never underestimate the gesture of kindness. I had the opportunity to be invited to dinner with a Japanese business person while I was a college student. He was a manager for an international company. He travels the world extensively and has been to over 50 countries. I knew I wanted to set a good impression so I did my research: how to address the individual, how to greet him, how to accept his business card (with two hand... |

Some tips on succeeding in name pronunciation and international 101 by Emily Chardac - May, 2011 What goes into a first name? As an international business and human resources professional, I’ve seen too many times the discrete way that we diminish the people around us without even realizing it. Here are my observations. The United States is built on a diverse nation of culture and nationalities. (Note: You can have different cultures within a nationality.) Depending on where you live in the United States will determ... |

THE RISE OF CORPORATE GLOBAL AND DECLINE OF CORPORATE AMERICA by Yvonne Brown - May, 2011 As a child in Jamaica I grew up in a time when coming to America was the ultimate dream. People from all over the world coveted the American lifestyle with its manicured lawns, beautiful homes, and happy healthy children playing in the yard or riding their bikes in the neighborhood. Now all of that has changed and many Americans are moving to foreign lands just to find work, some are struggling to make a living,and feed th... |

How Is Your Customer Service? by Christine Hassler - May, 2011 “Here is a simple but powerful rule – always give people more than what they expect to get.” – Nelson Boswell This week I designated a day to catch up on my errands and to-do list which involved interacting with various businesses.

Beware of the Overshare by Alexandra Levit - May, 2011 I’ve noticed a workplace trend lately – the overshare. It seems that people work so much that they consider colleagues like close friends or family members. And when they’re diagnosed with a long-term condition with an acronym like PSTD or ADHD or become pregnant (for example) it’s the most natural thing in the world to tell officemates immediately. My advice is to think twice about this. Don’t get me wrong – I’m sure yo... |

How to stand out on your resume by Miriam Salpeter - May, 2011 Almost every resume I see reads like a laundry list of “stuff” the person has done at work. The problem is that everyone applying for the job you seek probably has a similar list of “stuff.” What makes you stand out? Why are you special – why do YOU deserve to win an interview and the job?
