How smelling lavender could actually relieve anxiety

How smelling lavender could actually relieve anxietyHow smelling lavender could actually relieve anxietyNext time you spot a lavender-scented candle, take a deep breath. A new study inFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience builds upon the science of why a whiff can make you say Ahhhh in relief.The researchers found that when they got mice to sniff linalool, a component in lavender, it had the same effect of an anxiety-reducing Valium on the mice Linalool tickled odor-sensitive neurons in the nose that send signals to just the right spots in the brain - the same ones triggered by Valium, The New York Times wrote about on the findings.The history of using lavender as treatmentAlthough this study tested lavender on mice, not humans, the researchers see the possibility of using lavender to treat anxiety in humans. behauptung findings give us a foundation towards clinical application of linalool odor for anxiety disorders, the study concludes.Lavender has a long history of being used to tr eat ailments. Around 1910, French chemist Rene-Maurice Gattefosse learned of the soothing effect of lavender when he burned his hand and rinsed it using lavender. The next day, his hand started healing, kicking off research into how it could be used to heal World War I soldiers.Nowadays, it has become its own industry. It has been touted as a solution for acne, bug bites, and stress.As Americans have become more anxious, our search for homeopathic solutions has become more extensive. About 18% of adults in America met the diagnostic criteria for at least one anxiety disorder within the past year. Under these stressful times, an aromatic essence marketed to harmonize the health of the body, mind, and spirit sounds soothing.I personally am not at the stage of wanting to bake cakes with lavender, but I do keep a bushel of lavender in my bedroom. I cannot attest to feeling less anxious as a result, but I do find its scent to be relaxing.

Is it Finally Okay to Include a Photo in Your Resume

Is it Finally Okay to Include a Photo in Your Resume Is it Finally Okay to Include a Photo in Your Resume The problem is that with the rise of social media, this landseemingly sensible position of withholding physical appearance from resumes is becoming increasingly nonsensical, because research from CareerBuilder shows that between 43 percent and 55 percent of employers can and do check candidates social media profiles as a matter of course, which will most likely give employers access to at least two photos of any candidate they wish to research. So, this means that in this day and age, many employers will see more than one photo of a candidate prior to short-listing whether or not the resume contains a photo.Does this mean that its therefore okay to routinely include photos in your resume? Well, we are not quite there yet, as although I think that the idea of photos in resumes is becoming desensitized due to the flood of photos on social media, there is still a residual paranoia about photos in resumes. So, you might want to ensure to not send photos for employers who specifically asked you not to or for conservative sectors where it could be viewed a little oddly.But, as a result of social media, the cat is effectively out of the bag when it comes to seeing images on potential candidates, and if these images are going to be seen anyway, I think that it is time that candidates started to use photos to their advantage in job applications by using them in an appropriate and highly promotional way to actually increase their gunst der stunde of being short-listed.This task is made easier at the moment as with so many people afraid to use photos in a resume you have an opportunity to stand-out in the pile of resumes, simply because you have included a photo.You can take control of the image you present by having a specially prepared resume photo, which presents the most professional and business relevant view of yourself to the employer. Have a picture that ref lects your personality and their culture of their business. Do you want to appear like a cool, intellectual, or a warm relationship builder, or a dogged, determined sales type? Use the picture, to capture the essence of your personal brand and also use the picture to create affinity between you and the employer and not to create barriers.Done well, a photo can promote your personal brand and demonstrate affinity between you and employer and make you literally leap of the page. As they say, a picture literally speaks a thousand words, and so I think that unless it has been outlawed or will look strange in your profession, it is much more than OK to include a photo in your resume.If executed properly, a photo in a resume will differentiate you it will communicate your personal brand in an instant, (remember you have just 6 seconds to impress a recruiterwith your resume), giving you a further edge in the short-listing process. I also think it can help to create an affinity with the pro spective employer as long as your picture is in tune with and reflects the employers company culture.

Going Up Building Your Elevator Pitch

Going Up Building Your Elevator PitchBuilding Your Elevator PitchGoing Up Building Your Elevator PitchYou may have heard of the elevator pitch. Its a brief statement - 30 to 45 seconds long, give or take - of your job skills and qualifications and how you could utilize them for your next employer. It acts as an oral professional summary. The reason its called an elevator pitch (or elevator speech) is that, in theory, youre supposed to imagine youre articulating the entire statement to a busy executive or hiring manager in the time it takes to complete an elevator ride.It can also serve as an answer to the oft-asked job interview question Tell me about yourself, as the basis for the Professional Summary that will appear on your resume, or as an ice breaker at a cocktail party when someone asks what you do.If the statement is too long to be completed in an elevator ride, it could be too much for someone to absorb or could be a sign that you dont have a strong handle on the value you ca n offer an employer.If you want to craft your own elevator pitch, start by asking yourself these six questions1)What am I really good at that makes a difference for an employer?2)What have I accomplished in my career that was of great value to my employers?3)What are the skills that have enabled me to achieve in my career?4)What personal traits (or soft skills) do I have that complement those other skills?5)Do my educational credentials (diplomas, degrees, professional certifications) enhance my employment background?6)What kind of position, and at what level in the organization, am I looking for in my next career move?Lets say youre a sales professional with 10 years of experience, the last five for a technology hardware vendor. Heres how you might answer each question1)Im a sales professional with a solid track record, good at winning new geschftliches miteinander and generating repeat business. I live by the motto The client always comes first.2)In each of the last five years, I have exceeded my sales quota and helped boost my companys market share in two industries.3)Im a whiz at web research, which allows me to target my sales pitches to what I believe are a clients pain points. My organizational skills are also solid, with much thanks to my PDA.4)I have solid communication skills, especially listening. I like to listen more than I like to talk.5)My bachelors degree in business with a concentration in marketing has proven to be an excellent foundation for my sales career.6)Im looking for a high-profile sales role with a Fortune 500 technology hardware company that can use someone of my skill level to generate more business in a particular market segment or segments.Now that you have the answers, put it all together in a brief paragraphIm an experienced sales professional with a solid track record of winning new and repeat business for a technology hardware provider. Id like to continue that success for a Fortune 500 provider that wants to generate more bu siness in a particular market segment. In each of the past five years, I have exceeded my sales quota and helped boost my companys market share in two industries. My technological proficiency, particularly in web research and use of the PDA, complement my organizational and communication skills. Im also a great listener and that helps me understand my clients pain points and address their needs head-on. Since my college days as a business major with a concentration in marketing, I have been fascinated by the sales process and am driven by the impact I can have on a companys growth.I read that out loud (well, not very loud) and it took exactly 40 seconds, long enough for a 10-floor elevator ride with two stops in between. Then the trick is trying to remember it all well enough that you can speak it flawlessly.What about you? What have you accomplished in your career that would be part of your elevator pitch?

Architecture as a Career Path A Realistic Look

Architecture as a Career Path A Realistic Look Architecture as a Career Path A Realistic Look Architecture as a Career Path: A Realistic Look When one thinks of having a career in architecture, the first thing you might imagine is a brilliant skyscraper going up. Maybe even the next Empire State Building. But Peter Leffe, mechanical engineer, architect, and consultant, says you may want to change your state of mind. For a mechanical engineer who wants to become that kind of architect, you have a huge amount of competition with the architects already trying to get work and many of them arent even doing that well. Laffes theory is simple. Who says thats the only kind of building? Architects who are also mechanical engineers are incredibly valued when it comes to, for example, factories, he says. When you think of a factory, its really not about the beauty of the building from the outside but the inner workings. Think of the equipment, the machinery. It takes a specialized understanding of machine design to build a structure that will be most to the advantage [of the occupant]. In this case, the structure is really just an envelope to cover the machinery. And its actually usually best to associate with an architecture firm for that kind of project instead of competing against them. Peter Leffe Another area in demand for mechanical engineers is among the most important of facilities: hospitals. You have loads and loads of systems, youre talking environmental control, he says. It requires an efficient mind. Plumbing is also a major factor for a mechanical engineer to bring their strengths to. Someone with an engineering background has something to offer an architectural firm here educationally that most architects just dont have. One of Leffes leading niches related to architecture is an area you might never guess. Forensic failure analysis, he says. Many architectural failures you might see have to be explained in terms of engineering. The failure wouldnt be the layout of the building but a beam failure or damaged foundations. Or how about the time he evaluated a stairwellof an airplane. You might not think about the steps that take you aboard an airliner but thats architecture as well. Look at mobile staircases in airports, people fall down on them. Its the architectural part of how the geometry of a staircase should be able to comply with the standards within the industry; you get mechanical engineering crossover in those areas. It also goes to the architectural elements of walkways and handicapped ramps. Again, its not just about a pretty structure, its about making it workwell. For those who still have their dreams in the tallest buildings, Leffe just wants you to know what youre in for. Three years of schooling for a professional architecture degree, three years of interning and you still have to pass those testsnot a guarantee there either, he says. If Im doing all that then Id rather [play the percentages] in terms of the work Im going to get. There can be a good payoff with a realistic strategy, and there can be fun challenges.

Tips to Use LinkedIn Effectively for Job Hunting

Tips to Use LinkedIn Effectively for Job Hunting Tips to Use LinkedIn Effectively for Job Hunting Every human resources director, headhunter, or recruiter will tell you the same thing: the best way to find a job is through networking, which includes social media. The best social media networking tool for professionals is, without question, LinkedInyet, according to Wayne Breitbarth, author of The Power Formula for LinkedIn Success, most professionals dont know how to use it properly, especially for job hunting. To demonstrate how connected the engineering community is on LinkedIn, a recent search for the phrase mechanical engineer turned up 68,400 responses. There were 347 active postings for engineering jobs and a search of LinkedIn updates showed 2,183 mentions of hiring mechanical engineers from HR directors and recruiters. Thats a powerful presence at your fingertips. Engineers and IT personnel tend to work alone and dont go for the crowd, says Breitbarth. When I am teaching a LinkedIn class I can always pick out the engineers and IT specialists because they dont seem to be engaged; however, after the event they usually come up and talk to me because I didnt go deep enough. Breitbarth stresses that engineers must have the right keywords in the headline, job title, and summary of their LinkedIn profile. Its not good enough to simply say senior mechanical engineer, says Breitbarth. Be sure to include your engineering specialties as well, such as systems engineering, hydraulic engineering, etc. In general, engineers are not great writers and storytellers. People expect engineers to communicate with scientific, technical jargon, says Breitbarth. Therefore an effective way to stand out from the rest of the job-hunting crowd is to show some personality and storytelling in your profileemployers will notice that. Build Those Connections Theres a reason LinkedIn stresses building connectionsit is a great way to network and create connections within your industry. This is especially true for engineers, who may not have the greatest networking skills and often work alone. Most people dont realize how important their connections are, says Breitbarth. It is very hard to find a job through LinkedIn with only 30 or 40 connections. Increase that to 200 or more and youll get somewhere with your job hunt. The easiest first step is clicking on the job tab on LinkedIns opening page and typing in mechanical engineer to see what jobs are available. Most companies also have a page on LinkedIn. Click the Follow button on the company page to receive the latest news and job postings (be aware, however, that the companies you follow will know you are following them). Join industry groups that are a good match for your expertise and career objectives. These also often have job tabs where you can post your own job requirements at no charge. Another useful job-hunting feature on LinkedIn that few people utilize is the alumni search. Go to Contacts and slide down to Schools, says Breitbarth. Here you can find all the people on LinkedIn who graduated from your alma mater, the years they attended, where they have worked and what they are doing now. Connecting with alumni is a very effective way to network. Connections are the gasoline in the tank that makes the engine work on LinkedIn, says Breitbarth. If you are messing around as a job seeker at 20 to 50 connections, you are doing just thatmessing around. Get serious. You know and trust 250 people who are on LinkedIn. Go out and get connected to them and LinkedIn may help you discover your next job or opportunity. Mark Crawford is an independent writer.To demonstrate how connected the engineering community is on LinkedIn, a recent search of LinkedIn updates showed 2,183 mentions of ‘hiring mechanical engineers’ from HR directors and recruiters.

The New 9-to-5ers Guide to Office Lingo

The New 9-to-5er’s Guide to Office Lingo The New 9-to-5er’s Guide to Office Lingo You’re a week into your first corporate gig when your boss stops by your cubicle, coffee cup in hand ( la Office Space), and casually mentions, “Hey there, with the restructuring last week, we’re going to need some of your bandwidth to develop action items for the sales push- can we grab some time this afternoon?”Huh?When you’re the new one, it can feel like your boss is speaking another language- one filled with buzzwords and acronyms that even a good set of Corporate Flashcards couldn’t prepare you for. We’ve been there. So, if your manager’s lingo has your head spinning, here’s your guide.Bandwidthn.  time or capacity to do work, particularly work that was not originally assigned to you“If you have some bandwidth today, can you take over one of Amy’s financial reports?”If your manager asks you if you have any bandwidth, she wants to know if you have any spare time aside from the projects you’re already working on. The correct answer is almost always: “I ’m pretty busy with [insert reminder of what else she assigned you], but could make time for this if needed [or if I deprioritize project X].”Pingv. contact“I’ll ping you after my meeting so we can find a time to discuss last month’s numbers.”Though it’s not clear why there needs to be a term in place of simple words like “call” or “email,” corporate culture has invented one. “Ping” means to contact someone by any of several methods- which makes it even more confusing. You’ll instantly be reminded of the dilemma you used to face with your high school crush: “Wait- does he want me to call? Email? Text?”Drill Down v. go into more detail“When we drill drown into that account, we can see that they made a purchase last week.”Again, we have a simple word that means the same thing: Look. Yes, drilling down means to look further into a matter in order to get more details. But you wouldn’t want to be caught using a regular word, now would you?Deep Diven. a more detailed analysis than what you did last time“I need you to do a deep dive into last week’s numbers to figure out our budget for next month.”Pick up a venti latte and get ready to strain your eyes, because if you’re asked for a deep dive, it usually means you’ll be looking at data for a long time. Typically, this means a time-consuming look into numbers or other documents for the purpose of gathering detailed information- just how you wanted to spend your lunch break.  Circle Backv. catch up later“After you resolve the issue with the client, can you circle back to me?”When someone asks you to circle back, she usually means something to the effect of “check back in” or “follow up.” Because, again, we already had words that meant the same thing, but wanted to make sure we had a more important-sounding phrase to use in the office.Bubble Upv. tell your boss what’s going on- but only if it’s important“If a client’s giving you trouble, make sure to bu bble it up.”  This is your boss’ way of saying- I will help you if you need it, but only bring me the important stuff. Instead of asking the woman who sits next to you about how to handle the inconsolable client on the line, tell your direct supervisor- he’ll be more helpful than your cubemate anyway.  Cascade v. tell other people, so your boss doesn’t have to“We’ll need you to cascade the information about the budget cuts to your team.”When your management team can’t stand to be the bearers of bad news, they’ll tell you to cascade information down to your team- meaning it’s up to you to let your employees down gently. Good luck.Take it Offlinev. talk about this later“If you’d like to discuss that further, we’ll have to take it offline.”This term is usually used when you’re getting a little off topic during a meeting, or need to talk about something confidential. So even if you thought the team meeting about next year’s budget was the perfect segue in to a conversation about why you deserve a raise, you’ll need to meet separately rather than discussing in front of the entire department.Ridiculous as this term is (you’re “online” in the meeting?), it’s also very useful for reminding Joe from Marketing and Susie from Partnerships that no one else in the sales meeting wants to listen to them hash through every detail of the new ad campaign.High Level View n. a vague description“I only have a few minutes, but I can at least give you a high level view of our software functionality.”A high level view explains a concept without getting into the small, technical details. This is usually used when there’s limited time- or when it’s outside your area of expertise and you really don’t want Steve from IT to explain the nitty-gritty details to you, anyway.  Low-Hanging Fruit n. easily attainable accomplishments“We need to go for the low-hanging fruit on this one for a quick boost in income.”This particularly overused i diom refers to easily attainable accomplishments, quick sales, or goals that you can tackle immediately. Or, in other over-used corporate words, “quick wins.”  Whitespacen. potential sales to existing clients“Let’s take advantage of our whitespace and have our inside sales team start reaching out to all our Tier 2 clients.”This industry term refers to potential sales that can be made to existing clients. For example, if your company sells office supplies, and a current client only buys paper from you, possible whitespace could include the sale of paperclips and staplers. Because- hello- how else are they going to hold stacks of papers together?Action Itemsn. things you can do“Let’s prioritize the action items for this project.”As opposed to regular tasks on your to-do list, action items are tasks on your to-do list with a slightly more important title. They are also supposed to be a reminder that talking about stuff is not the same as taking action.  Going Forwardpre p. in the future“Going forward, you should focus on staying caught up on your project backlog.”This seemingly friendly phrase isn’t as innocuous as it sounds- beware of serious undertones. These words can really mean “In the future, don’t ever do this again.”  Tell us! What are some of the cryptic buzzwords used in your office?Photo of team meeting courtesy of Shutterstock.

8 Tips for Holiday Gift-Giving in the Office

8 Tips for Holiday Gift-Giving in the Office 8 Tips for Holiday Gift-Giving in the Office Buying gifts for friends and family can be hard enough, but when it comes to holiday gift-giving at your workplace, things can get even trickier. If you find yourself a little uneasy about the prospect of buying the proper gift, don’t fret. An Accountemps survey sheds light on several questions: Is it proper for supervisors to give their staff holiday gifts (63 percent say yes), is it OK for workers to give their bosses gifts (58 percent said yes), and what kinds of gifts aren't appropriate (more on that later). See our SlideShare, below, on surviving this Season to be Jolly (at Work). How do you come up with ideas of what to give? These eight tips will help make holiday gift-giving as easy as enjoying the cookies, cakes and other assorted treats that come your way this time of year. 1. Start a conversation If this is your first holiday season on the job, talk to coworkers who have experience with buying gifts, whether it's for your boss or for your office’s holiday party. Even if you’ve been to previous holiday gatherings at your office, discussing gift exchange ideas and sharing insights can be a kind of informal team-building exercise. The conversations you end up having will make it more likely that you’ll buy an appropriate present. 2. Know the parameters If you're shopping for an office gift exchange, do you know in advance who will receive your gift, or will the recipient be determined at the party? What about spending guidelines? Is there a special theme? Find out as much as you can before you go shopping. If it’s the traditional “white elephant” game, where a gift may pass through many hands before finally ending up with the eventual recipient, you’ll need to get something that will work for anyone. 3. Make it personal - or not If it's not a Secret Santa event and you know who will get your gift, put some thought into personalizing it. You could give a book related to something the recipient is interested in, or a beauty product that you've been complimented for using. You could give a monogrammed bottle stopper for a wine aficionado, or coffee beans and a mug for a coffee lover. On the other hand, if you are buying for people you don't know well, avoid the overly personal and stick with something they can use in the office. 4. Keep it PG clean Use the motion picture rating system to give you some guidance for your gift ideas. Use PG-13 as the outer boundary for what to buy, leaning more toward PG or G. Speaking of movies, prepaying for a pair tickets to any movie playing at a local cinema is a good way to give the recipient some choice while still staying well within the limits of what’s acceptable. To add some originality to that particular gift, cut out movie ads for a half-dozen films now playing, paste them to a piece of cardboard, and attach a spinning pointer - a simple but clever prop to help the recipient decide what movie to see. You can take this approach with many types of gift cards for coffee shops, restaurants or stores. Basically, when in doubt, think of things that will add cheer to the proceedings during this season to be jolly. 5. Tap the food network One place you’re apt to share gift ideas with coworkers is at lunch. Do you and your coworkers have several regular favorite lunchtime spots? If so, consider using gift certificates from those eateries as presents. If you’re on good terms with the proprietors and tell them what you’re planning, they may even offer to increase the value beyond your purchase price as a way of spreading holiday cheer while also rewarding loyal customers. You could also give food baskets, cookie trays or fancy candies. Or if you're thinking of something a little more fun, place several individual-size bags of chips and chocolates inside a large box, and then wrap it up. 6. Create your own gift With so many websites and local print shops catering to individualized apparel and other gift items, the sky is the limit on gift ideas. If you know ahead of time, for example, that you’ll be buying a gift for Amy in Payroll, and Amy just loves baseball, you could get her baseball-themed business cards that say something like, “Amy Smith, Super Fan!” and “Meet me at the hot dog stand behind home plate, field level.” Need something that will work for anyone? Take a picture of the office and put it on a coffee mug above the words “My Favorite Place!” That should be a gift that garners some attention at your workplace. 7. Consider the presentation No matter what you've chosen for the gift, cheerful packaging shows thoughtfulness. You could include a holiday card with it with a note to personalize it. 8. Don't be overly extravagant (or a Scrooge) Spending too much can make the receiver uncomfortable, while not spending enough can make the gift seem like an afterthought. Luckily, our survey gives you an idea of what's too much or too little. Respondents suggested that $20 is suitable for workers to spend on gifts for their bosses, and for bosses, they could spend $24 on staff. Speaking of fun ... The survey also revealed what not to do in the realm of holiday gift-giving. Managers reported the most inappropriate gifts they've seen. Here are just three, to get you grinning (or cringing): A re-gifted gift from an employee that had been given the year before by the manager A wig A big order of frozen pork (even worse if given to a vegetarian) Thinking about holiday gift-giving should be enjoyable, whether it leads to playful back-and-forth with office mates or just coming up with your own ideas. When all is said and done, the office party is about good cheer, and gift giving should be something you do unconditionally. Keep that in mind throughout your gift-buying adventure, and you’ll be sure to get something that brings cheer to the person on the receiving end.

10 ways to spot a truly exceptional employee

10 ways to spot a truly exceptional employee 10 ways to spot a truly exceptional employee A recent international study surveyed more than 500 business leaders and asked them what sets great employees apart. The researchers wanted to know why some people are more successful than others at work, and the answers were surprising; leaders chose “personality” as the leading reason.Follow Ladders on Flipboard!Follow Ladders’ magazines on Flipboard covering Happiness, Productivity, Job Satisfaction, Neuroscience, and more!Notably, 78% of leaders said personality sets great employees apart, more than cultural fit (53%) and even an employee’s skills (39%).“We should take care not to make the intellect our God; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality.” â€"Albert EinsteinThe problem is, when leaders say ‘personality’ they don’t understand what they’re referring to. Personality consists of a stable set of preferences and tendencies through which we approach the world. Being introverted or extroverted is an example of an important personality trait.P ersonality traits form at an early age and are fixed by early adulthood. Many important things about you change over the course of your lifetime, but your personality isn’t one of them.Personality is distinct from intellect (or IQ). The two don’t occur together in any meaningful way. Personality is also distinct from emotional intelligence (or EQ), and this is where the study, and most leaders for that matter, have misinterpreted the term.The qualities that leaders in the study called personality were actually emotional intelligence skills. And unlike your personality, which is set in stone, you can change and improve your EQ.Exceptional employees don’t possess God-given personality traits; they rely on simple, everyday EQ skills that anyone can incorporate into their repertoire.Leaders don’t need to go searching for these skills either (though it doesn’t hurt when you find them); their duty is to help everyone on their team harness these skills to become exceptional.Just consider some of the EQ skills that leaders and managers commonly mislabel as personality characteristics. These are the skills that set exceptional employees apart.They’re willing to delay gratificationOne thing an exceptional employee never says is, “That’s not in my job description.” Exceptional employees work outside the boundaries of job descriptions. They’re neither intimidated nor entitled; instead of expecting recognition or compensation to come first, they forge ahead in their work, confident that they’ll be rewarded later but unconcerned if they’re not.They can tolerate conflictWhile exceptional employees don’t seek conflict, they don’t run away from it either. They’re able to maintain their composure while presenting their positions calmly and logically. They’re able to withstand personal attacks in pursuit of the greater goal and never use that tactic themselves.They focusStudent pilots are often told, “When things start going wrong, don’t forge t to fly the plane.” Plane crashes have resulted from pilots concentrating so hard on identifying the problem that they flew the plane into the ground. Eastern Airlines Flight 401 is just one example: The flight crew was so concerned about the landing gear being down that they didn’t realize they were losing altitude until it was too late, despite alarms going off in the cockpit. Exceptional employees understand the principle of “Just fly the plane.” They don’t get distracted by cranky customers, interoffice squabbles, or switch to a different brand of coffee. They can differentiate between real problems and background noise; therefore, they stay focused on what matters.They’re judiciously courageousExceptional employees are willing to speak up when others are not, whether it’s to ask a difficult (or “embarrassingly” simple) question or to challenge an executive decision. However, that’s balanced with common sense and timing. They think before they speak and wise ly choose the best time and place to do so.They’re in control of their egosExceptional employees have egos. While that’s part of what drives them, they never give their egos more weight than what is deserved. They’re willing to admit when they’re wrong and willing to do things someone else’s way, whether it’s because the other way is better or it’s important to maintain team harmony.They’re never satisfiedExceptional employees have unparalleled convictions that things can always be better- and they’re right. No one is ever done growing, and there is no such thing as “good enough” when it comes to personal improvement. No matter how well things are going, exceptional employees are driven to improve, without forgetting to give themselves a healthy pat on the back.They recognize when things are broken and fix themWhether it’s a sticky desk drawer or an inefficient, wasteful process affecting the cash flow of the entire department, exceptional employees don’t w alk past problems. “Oh, it’s been that way forever,” simply isn’t in their vocabulary. They see problems as issues to be fixed immediately; it’s  that  simple.They’re accountableIf you’re a manager trying to decipher a bungled report, “It’s not my fault” is the most irritating phrase in the English language. Exceptional employees are accountable. They own their work, their decisions, and all of their results- good or bad. They bring their mistakes to management’s attention rather than hoping no one will find out. They understand that managers aren’t out to assign blame; they’re out to get things done.They’re marketable“Marketable” can mean many things. Inside the organization, it means “likeable.” Exceptional employees are well liked by co-workers. They have integrity and leadership skills (even if they’re not in an official leadership position) that people respond to. Externally, it means they can be trusted to represent the brand well. Manager s know they can send these employees out to meet with clients and prospects without worrying about what they’ll say or do.They neutralize toxic peopleDealing with difficult people is frustrating and exhausting for most.

2019 Star Spangled Accomplishment for Independence Day 2019 Star Spangled Accomplishment for Independence Day 2019 Star Spangled Accomplishment for Independence Day Happy Independence Day from The Resume Place! President, www.resume-place.comJuly 1, 2019Resume Place, inc. online forum and message board for discussion of issues in the field of resume writing, career development and federal employment. Introduction: Here at RP, we are constantly coaching our clients to write stories about their accomplishments to demonstrate KSAs from the job announcement. Personally, I am inspired by Francis Scott Keys experience, the flag, Ft. McHenry, our countrys survival, and the amazing poem that Mr. Key wrote, especially the phrase oer the land of the free, and the home of the brave. Can your spirits be raised to write a better federal resume by thinking about the morning that Francis Scott Key wrote the poem Defence of Ft. McHenry that became the National Anthem? Mr. Keys accomplishment would make a great KSA for Ability to Write! On September 14, 1814, Francis Scott Key was on a ship eight miles down the Patapsco River (near the Key Bridge today). He had been sitting out there watching the bombardment of the British on Ft. McHenry all day and through the night. By early morning, he looked out and the huge flag was still waving in the breeze after twenty-five hours of heavy bombardment by the British. Key, who sometimes wrote religious poetry, was inspired to pen the poem (in the graphic below) that became the National Anthem in 1931. The Commander of Ft. McHenry, Colonel Armistead knew how important Ft. McHenry was to our nation in 1812. The British had just burned Washington (including the White House and the Capitol Building) and were advancing toward Baltimore. The Commander felt that the Baltimoreans were discouraged and afraid for their city. He felt that they would have their spirits raised by seeing a huge, high flying flag at Fort McHenry as a symbol of defiance. The Defence of Fort McHenry, poem by Francis Scott Key, published in the Patriot on September 20, 1814. Colonel Armistead commissioned Mary Youngs Pickersgill, a local seamstress and flag maker to make two flags for Fort McHenry in 1813 a large flag and a smaller one to fly in bad weather. She was paid $500 for both flags, the large one being 30 x 42 feet, so it could be seen from a great distance. She was asked to sew a flag with 15 stars and 15 stripes, the number of states then in the Union. (My grandmother was a seamstress and flag maker with a famous flag maker in Baltimore City from 1910 until 1940. I wonder if this is the same flagmaker?) The 15-star, 15-stripe flag was authorized by the Flag Act of January 13, 1794, adding 2 stripes and 2 Stars. The regulation went into effect on May 1, 1795. This flag was the only U.S. Flag to have more than 13 stripes. It was immortalized by Francis Scott Key during the bombardment of Fort McHenry, Sept 13, 1814. The image above is representative of the actual flag that flew over Fort McHenry on that day and which is now preserved in the Smithsonian Museum. You can notice the tilt in some of the stars just as in the original Star Spangled Banner. Personally, I am inspired by Francis Scott Keys experience, the flag, Ft. McHenry, our countrys survival, and the amazing poem that Mr. Key wrote, especially the phrase oer the land of the free, and the home of the brave. Can your spirits be raised to write a better resume by thinking about the morning that Francis Scott Key wrote the poem Defence of Ft. McHenry that became the National Anthem? Mr. Keys accomplishment would make a great KSA for Ability to Write! Francis Scott Keys KSA Accomplishment, Sept. 14, 1814 Position: Public Affairs Officer, U.S. Congress KSA: Ability to Communicate in Writing AUTHORED THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER The actual banner that flew over Fort McHenry Context: As an attorney and aide-de-camp to General Smith, stationed near Upper Marlboro, MD, I found out my dear friend and elderly, Dr. Beane, who was captured by the British Army during a party at his home in Upper Marlboro. I was on a British vessel flagged for truce by the future President Jackson, on my way to pick up a captured friend in Marlborough. We got as far as the mouth of the Patuxent and then we were not permitted to return lest an intended attack on Baltimore by the British should be disclosed. We were brought up the Bay just across from Fort McHenry and there we were compelled to witness the bombardment of Fort McHenry, which the Admiral had boasted that he would carry in a few hours, and that the city must fall. Challenge: We watched the flag at the Fort through the whole day with more than 500 bombs from British ships to Ft. McHenry. In the night the smaller weather flag was flying while we watched the Bomb shells in darkness not knowing that the American Military had secretly planned 4 barges, which the British did not detect. These barges attached the British militia and sent them running, some with tugs assisting. At the early dawn our eyes were surprising greeted by the proudly the 15-star flag of our country (late to be known as the Star Spangled Banner). Actions: By morning, I was compelled to pen a poem that reflected my thoughts of the war and particularly of the flag, “Oh say can you see by the dawn’s early light … “ was my first thought. I wrote four verses that reflected topics about the day before and my vision of the flag in the morning. The first verse reviews the dawn’s light and the flag with broad stripes and bright stars that was still flying in the morning; the second verse reviews the dread silence and how the flag was fitfully blowing; the third verse reviews the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion; and the final and fourth verse celebrates the victory and peace that preserved our nation. Results: I witnessed the last enemy fire to fall on Fort McHenry and in this memory, I wrote the poem “Defence of Fort McHenry has been renamed to “The Star-Spangled Banner” and has become a well-known American patriotic song. The poem and song were recognized for official Navy use in 1931 and became the national them by a congressional resolution on March 3, 1931 and signed by President Herbert Hoover. This KSA was written by Kathryn Troutman, Author, Federal Resume Guidebook, 6th Ed. Written in the CCAR format which results in the Best Scores by Federal Human Resources Specialists.
