Happy Turkey Day!

My greeting to you

So you think you are thankful this Thanksgiving? My challenge to you and what I will do: write down everything you are thankful for. Your list should have at least 30 entries. Next time life isn’t going too well, or so you think, pull out the list and read it.  Heck, read it every morning. Focus on what is right vs. what is wrong. Do something that will move you forward in a positive manner.

Happy Thanksgiving-Marsha

I hate my job … but hate you more.

People stay in jobs they hate because of the unstable job environment. When this decision is made, it’s important to have tools at hand that will help with internal (your thinking) and external (the jerks at work) conflict resolution.  Poor employee relationships do not increase workplace productivity or help team conflict resolution.  So what can be done when the goof ball in the next cubicle is driving you nuts?

1. How can employees deal with a co-worker who is a slacker and doesn’t pull their weight at work?

Stabilizing an Unstable Work Environment

Real world: Unemployment is 10.2%. With so many people looking for employment, you must ensure that your talents stand out. Whether you’ve been laid off, are unsure of your future with your current position or are looking for a promotion, here are seven secrets that will help you be the star.

Find a job

1. Communication development: No matter what happens, you have polished communication skills and are ready to respond assertively in any circumstance.

2. Conflict resolution skills: People are angry and unsettled. When tempers flare, you can move disagreements to amicable solutions.
