Debora McLaughlin Influencing the Job Offer to Get the Title, Salary and Flexibility You Desire

You're excited you found the job that you want and they are offering it to you. You are ready to shout "yes" from the hills. Don't. I am going to tell you what I tell each of my career clients, wait, delay, pull off the road and call me, immediately. At the time of the offer may be the only time that you have to optimize to sweeten the pot, to not only get the job but to also get the salary, the job title and the flexibility you need to enjoy the lifestyle you desire. Do you know that most job… Continue

Terrence Seamon Engaging in Mutual Support

Judy Bardwick What should I do… so I don't rue... decisions made that I need to redo?

Thanks for sharing this information, Roy. When I was Research Director at The Loyalty Institute, we found that the #1 driver of employee commitment was an organization's efforts to build a sense of spirit and pride. This was true in the US as well…

As a survey consultant I guess that I should like the idea of conducting monthly surveys, but I am concerned that employees may feel that they are being "over surveyed." There are options, of course. An organization might randomly assign each emplo…

I won't be wishing you "Season's Greetings" or "Happy Holidays" this December. These secular, generic salutations are popular in corporate America because they are not specific to any one religion or belief system. The business world, like America's…
