Added for You - Hiring Great People And How to Be One Yourself: Five Secrets
It's like the old dream where you're delivering a speech to a packed house - and suddenly realize that you're standing there with your trousers around your ankles. You've planned the perfect company dinner - and the caterer got the date wrong. Your keynote speaker didn't show up because his travel tickets were never confirmed. And the napkins at the tables don't match the tableskirts. Are your guests going to think 'Oh, their corporate event planners let them down? Of course not! When you plan a large scale corporate event, your company's reputation is on the line. Why would you leave that in unskilled hands?The most successful corporate events are those that are well-planned and flawlessly executed. If your company is hosting a customer appreciation event, a team building day or any other type of corporate event, it pays to hire the best corporate

Is the special treatment you designed specifically to keep customers coming back working against you?A local jeweler offers free lifetime battery replacement for any watch he sells. It's a good hook to keep customers walking back in the store on a regular basis and increases his sales volume.But, it's backfired on him. And he's lost at least one customer because of it.He's run into a problem getting the batteries he needs and now has to send a customer's watch off to the manufacturer which lengthens the turn around time for the repair. One customer got so irate she's sworn she'll never do business with him again. Oops. Thousands of dollars of business lost over a $6 battery.What are the perks you provide for your customers? Does it make their life simpler, save them money or time? Or has it turned into a problem that's driving t
Your senior vice-president, your marketing director or your accounting department head has decided to retire, move to Okinawa or start his own business––and you’re left staring, horrified, at a polite letter of resignation. The timing couldn’t be worse. You’ve now got a vacancy to fill, and you need to do it...well, yesterday. Is there any ray of hope?
There is. But first, let’s get one important fact out of the way: No one truly enjoys the hiring process, no matter how favorable the circumstances. It’s a nuisance, an irritation, a drain on both your time and energy. It can also be a professional land mine. No matter how savvy or perceptive a recruiter you may be, you’re treading the uncharted territory of some total stranger’s professional qualifications.
Every executive can tell horror stories where, despite the best of intentions, he wound up saddled with a salesperson who couldn’t sell, a trainer who couldn’t train or a manager who couldn’t manage. The result? More time and energy, not to mention money--–drained and lost.

Every year millions of people answer "Yes" to that question and every year that answer costs many of them money, time, confidence, and heartbreak. The Small Business Administration estimates there are 580,900 new small businesses opening each year and that number does not include the small one-person entrepreneurships that pop up every day. However even if you are your business's sole employee then there is still something to be learned from the SBA's numbers.According to the SBA, two-thirds of new businesses survive at least two years and 44 percent survive at least four years. Two of the key factors in the businesses survival and ability to thrive: the owner's education level and the owner's reason for starting the firm in the first place.How can you make sure that you are among the winners rather than the losers in this high stakes game?

Many of the car washes in Louisiana do hire illegal immigrants and illegal aliens. It is unfortunate if you consider the huge 200-Billion Dollar spending bill after Hurricane Katrina to see the business owners and their lack of caring for the rest of the citizens of the United States of America. They all know good and well what they are doing is illegal, as you are not allowed to even hire an illegal alien or illegal immigrant in this nation.If all the business owners stopped hiring these illegal immigrants and illegal aliens many people believe that the problem would taper off and decline, that is to say eventually go away and become a non-issue. Already illegal immigrants and illegal aliens make up over 33% of the violent criminals in the Federal Prison System and over 38% in the Arizona State Prison System. In the State of California illegal immi

We all know how important a logo is for an organization. Starting from the stationery, accessories to large billboards, a company logo finds place in almost everything that belongs to the company. Wrong placement of a logo can easily demean the very essence of it and that’s why, placement of a logo at the right place is critical. While there is no pre-determined perfect place for a logo to be positioned, the thumb rule is, irrespective of its color or size; a logo should be put at a place where it gets the maximum exposure.So, how do we go about it? There are no fixed rules for placing a logo. So before positioning a logo on a product, we need to answer three simple questions:Who will use the product? How will it be used? Where will it be used?Let’s take a basic example of stationery accessories like a pen or a pencil. In case of a p

You actually can’t afford anything less. Due to the downward shift in our economy and our increased technology, most companies are no longer supporting the head counts they once were. Instead they’re keeping fewer people and expecting them to absorb more comprehensive duties. So at some point during that initial interview, you’d better be sitting on the edge of your chair, panting with anticipation at the prospect of adding this rising star to your existing team.
Sure, it’s a tall order. But settling for someone who’s mediocre, or worse, “should work out just fine” isn’t good enough. Getting revved up during the first-impression stage isn’t enough, either. You should feel that same energy during every follow-up meeting. Remember: This person who rivets you will also rivet your clients, his or her fellow employees and your general public. A lukewarm response from you, on the other hand, will virtually guarantee the same from others, both externally (outside your firm) and internally (inside it).
But do you dare to be that picky? Absolutely. Read on.
