Sharing Your Company’s “Why” Through Social Media

Make strong emotional connections with your customers by sharing your ‘why’ with them. It’s easy to get caught up in the day-to-day – the long to-do lists, the endless meetings and the overwhelming amount of emails. I’m sure there are times when you feel like working at your company is a drain; so why do you do it? If you’re like me, it’s because you love what you do. You have a purpose driving you – even through the not-so-fun tasks. Your organization also has this purpose – this overarching “why” driving the entire business. Your company’s “why” is different from your mission or vision. But it can sometimes be hard to define – and even harder to communicate and share with others. “Every organization on the planet knows what they do,” says Simon Sinek, leadership expert and motivational speaker. “Some know how they do it, the things that you…

10 Traits of Managers Whose Teams Are Happy to Come to Work

Work isn’t recess but it shouldn’t be detention, either. The last thing any manager wants their team members to do is dread coming to work each day. Because people spend the majority of their time at work, it is important managers do all they can to make that time enjoyable, exciting and well-spent. A dictatorial manager who lacks empathy or insight may produce but high turnover will cause them to ultimately fail. Excellent managers do their best to make 80 percent of the job rewarding, with a 20 percent balance of healthy stress. While this may not always be the possible, it is nonetheless their goal. 1. Knowledgeable To create a happy and successful team, exceptional managers make sure to be knowledgeable in every area of their field, and to have the resources necessary to gather the information they are lacking. They are responsible and thorough in their direction of…

7 Tips for Loving Your Career and Working With Passion

You’ve heard the Confucius saying, “Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.” But what if you have yet to figure out what it is that makes your heart beat faster — or, an even more common scenario — how to turn what you love doing into a lucrative career path.  But before we explore this, I’d like to acknowledge the flip side of the coin. In one of Chrissy Scivicque’s Bad Career Advice articles, she argues that do-what-you-love career counsel is actually a bit of a fairy tale. “When something you love becomes work, it fundamentally — and unavoidably — changes the way in which you interact with it,” Scivicque asserts. “Instead of focusing on doing what you love so work won’t feel like ‘work,’ take some time to figure out what work means to you. What do you want to get out of…

How Important is it to Love Your Job?

My experience is that most people don’t love their work. Many like it, some tolerate it, but it is a minority who find work they love that also supports their lifestyle. Does that mean that everyone else is left to live in frustration, desperately seeking that perfect job they can be passionate about? Not at all. You can and should find enjoyment in your work. Doing so is very valuable to your life in many ways, including greatly increasing your probability of financial success. But you don’t have to love, or even like your overall job to enjoy everyday aspects of it. It is critical to distinguish between the job and the way you do it. This is important because every job has aspects that will be very unpleasant for you. You need to be able to get through them with a smile on your face. Let me give you…

Perception in Business

Perception is reality! Perception is not always reality! Perception is everything! We all have heard these statements, or some variation of them, at one time or another. Does perception play a role in business? If so, what is its role, how is it exercised, what is its impact? Perception is a major and old area of study in the field of Psychology. Perception is how we organize, understand and interpret the world around us: what we see, what we hear, what we feel, what we smell, and what we taste. Dependent upon the business you are in, all five senses may play a role or perhaps just one or two. There is the belief that perception alters and may distort our vision of reality, perhaps masking the truth. If people come to a situation with a preconceived notion of what should be, they might tend to see what they expect,…
