"People Believe What They Hear Rarely Do They Believe What They See"-Luciano Santini

Good morning to all my readers and followers. I truly appreciate all of your support and thus do the writing that I do on my blog. It has been a great week so far and now the weekend is upon is once again.

Today I just want to mention some issues that I have been coming across in resume writing. People in general need to have an understanding that anyone can give them advise regarding their resume from the font is not correct to your resume needs to be one page.

I always let people know that they have to try to create your own so the individual gets a good feeling about themselves first. Once that has been accomplished then you  the person can seek out assistance so their resume can be looked at and suggest the changes that need to be made: This is mostly for someone that cannot afford to have a professional resume writer to write it for them which in this economy is most of us.

If you do want a professional to write it for you  find someone that will work with you not only to write it for you but to explain the changes that will be made and the reason why the changes are being made. Many times individuals pay for a resume that the person could have written themselves with nothing more then a little guidance and that has been my past experiences. Good luck and write that resume and get out there and find that dream job!!!!

 Here is something so important and of course it comes from someone that I have studied for the past 14 years of my life.

 The individual who only does enough work to get by seldom gets much more than “by.”
There is a cause-and-effect relationship between your actions and the rewards that accrue to you. When you put more of yourself into your career, your personal relationships, your religious faith, and any other aspect of your life, you get more out of it. If your ambitions are greater than simply “getting by” in life, you will never be truly happy with your company, your job, or yourself unless you do your best every day. Your harshest critic and your toughest competitor should be you. 

The world of management either in a non-profit or for profit are going through so  many changes today due mostly to the changes in funding or economy. Managers are being asked to do more or high turn around on projects with less meaning less people (Staff) or less money. Top managers are doing one thing that really is hard to swallow and more so when it so evident what they are doing. Speaking for myself when you are a top manager in either organization you have to be able to understand people.

You have to be able to listen to people and most important know their weaknesses and their strengths. If a top manager lacks in leadership skills or management skills they need to step back and look at their staff and find strengths in their staff but never take advantage of them.

Lower managers or lead people may not say anything to their boss, that individual will eventually get tired and know their boss has no idea what they are doing and who manage through fear or position of which personally I am not a fan of but unfortunately many organizations are operated in this fashion.

Leadership has become very complicated in the past few years and far more competitive. Top position holders often become believers of old ways and become stuck in thinking on terms of matrices and competencies and modules which might have worked years ago but no longer is this the case. The simple truth is that to be a leader is to open doors of opportunity for others. To be most effective, leaders need to be opportunity creators.

Opportunity creators that is something that I believe strong on because if one creates opportunities for to them they become self managed and will be far more proficient with their skills thus giving more to any organization.

To be able to provide a solution to a problem corporations pay big money and they want the solution to work. Now one of the best way to find this out is to take a look where any individual is employed. On any given day take a look at the way the big boss runs the operation.

 Do they manage from their office by telling people what needs to be done or do they delegate out tasks but never follow up. These type operate by position -In other words people will do what they are asked to do because of the position the manager holds.

Manage by fear people will avoid eye contact at all times wither their boss but do what they say due to fear of loosing their job or of being removed or being written up for any reason. This is no way to work and operate any organization and expect staff to be happy.

Then you have the person who does not consider themselves a boss or a manager but a leader and guess what everyone knows this and understands and they (staff) will to do just about anything this person asks of them WHY? It is very simple a strategy but powerful simple because these persons never consider themselves as the boss but a leader.

These persons listen to the needs of their staff. These people teach their staff how to be better people. These persons work side by side with their staff when the tough times come. You see there is no need to scream and manipulate people they know you are a leader and they will follow them.
