Good Feelings

It is amazing how good it can make me and my clients feel when they suddenly have a resume that truly states their strengths. It is such a challenge to take our mind away from focusing on our negative abilities. Putting together a resume that acts both as a tool and a reflection of your worth is a relief. You work towards having a document that contains talking points for the interview. It can be a lengthy process to change how we think about what we do in the work place. Can we see the bigger picture? If an employee works to consider how the way they do their job impacts the companies performance. It is sometimes difficult.

The way we answer a phone, or file, or seek to help someone all adds up to how a company is perceived. It can eventually impact the bottom line and can lead to changing how many people a company employs. Can you think of what you do and how you do it might impact the company that employs you? Is there something that you could do to improve your job or system that would help your company. Sometimes re-framing our jobs can help us change the manner in which we are treated. Now, that doesn't always happen...

Companies can be just as flawed as the managers that run them. This can be unfortunate. Then you know that no matter what you do, you must leave and work in an environment that values you and your willingness to do things differently. Especially, if it leads to work satisfaction and positive outcomes for the company.

We all want to feel satisfied by a job well done and then financially compensated to acknowledge that YES - the job we do is well done.. No one should suffer in a job where they don't have compensation. Tomorrow, I will talk a little more about compensations that are not necessarily financial in nature.
