When preparing for interview, etiquette is that you ramp up your strengths and minimise your weaknesses. You don’t pretend that you have none because that would be a lie and it’s the quickest way to lose credibility with the interviewer. Rather, you would identify a weakness, describe what you have […]

I was asked for some careers advice this week by someone who wants to work in a related field and they are struggling to find an occupation which is affiliated to their degree. In fact, it’s a question I get asked a lot; sometimes because individuals decide they want a […]

Alan Rickman is one of my favourite actors and it turns out he’s pretty good at directing too. His latest film, ‘A Little Chaos’ is fantastic: gripping, moving, both funny and sad in places; a thoroughly good watch and highly recommended. That is if, like me you allow yourself to […]

A phrase often used by managers of sports teams when they (or one of their colleagues) get the sack. Equally apt to describe the latest election results given that three party leaders all resigned their posts within an hour of each other; once they realised the exit poll predictions were […]

Listening to the radio recently, I heard an individual describing how they had first entered into politics. They were confused about the different parties’ policies and with a general election looming, they decided to get involved. My ears pricked up when she said she had taken a couple of blind […]

A colleague recently gave me a book to read; a book given to him by a professional who operates in the same industry I do. He knows I’m interested in what others in my field are talking about. More than that I’m curious about the author and wonder what story […]

A question I get asked a lot is “How can I keep staff motivated during a difficult period of change?” A great question, especially since the pace of change is a constant challenge for managers in organisations. That and the resistance most people display (initially at least) in response to […]

One of the mantras my mother used when we were growing up. She convinced me (my sister less so) that a formal education and the resulting qualifications were important. I dutifully obliged and it certainly gave me a good footing on the career ladder and a mindset that means I […]

An article in Coaching at Work caught my eye. Reporting on a recent study about employee resilience at work, the authors were taken aback by their findings. They had expected ‘the volume and pace of work’ to be the main issue. It turns out that the biggest energy drain for […]

As a Human Resources Director in a previous life, I was interested to read an article proposing that the HR department as we know it should be scrapped. The author’s suggestion is to split HR into two separate functions; one focused on administration and reporting to the Chief Financial Officer […]

A colleague commented to me that I’m untypical of other business owners they know in my ability to switch off from work, whether that’s at the weekend or whilst on holiday. We were talking about email marketing and the fact that I dislike it landing in my mailbox at all […]

Having just finished watching the latest season of The Apprentice it was evident throughout that the winner is a good salesman and that he has the determination to succeed. Lord Sugar said on numerous occasions throughout the process that he’s in it to make money and doesn’t plan on being […]

Some people take the view that what’s done is done; no point raking over the past. This can be a helpful attitude to have when we’ve experienced some adversity and we want to move forward. To adopt this approach as a mantra for life however, is to miss an opportunity […]

Whenever I’ve wanted to get to grips with an extreme behaviour, such as over-working (well I was ‘diagnosed’ as a ‘Responsible Workaholic’ after all), I’ve noticed that at some point my behaviour swings the other way entirely before finding a middle ground. Take running for example – I like to […]

Visiting Boston last week and taking a tour of New England enabled me to check off items that had been on my wish list for a long time. Finally making the time to go, it was different from my usual choice of holiday. Having identified my preferred itinerary in advance, […]
