Delta is trying to make economy class fancy

Delta is trying to make economy class fancyDelta is trying to make economy class fancyNo matter how many technological breakthroughs we make, somehow being a passenger on a plane today in economy class is still just about the worst thing ever. From the cramped seats to the lousy food to the never knowing if youll have WiFi or not and flight attendant service, sometimes its almost funny how miserable flying in the year 2018 is. But one airline is trying to change things for the sad peasants that fly economy. Are they give them bigger seats? No. But they will be giving them more alcohol and better meals.Onlong-haul flightsbetween Portland, Oregon andTokyoDelta will be testing out a new fine dining service. Passengers sitting in economy will have access to Welcome Bubbles (Prosecco and peach pure) or a glass of LaCroix, San Pellegrino or Seagrams. I mean you know you are classy if you are drinking LaCroix on a plane. And like the better people sitting in first class, ansicht passengers will get a printed menu with meal choices including a salad with quinoa and pine nuts, pasta with cauliflower andHagen-Dazs ice cream.Who cares if you cant move your legs when youve got quinoa on your salad? This is as good as dining at a fancy restaurant (if you had to wear a seat belt and couldnt use the bathroom at certain times.)Though this is only a trial run a possible rollout for international Delta flights could happen as soon as November according to Conde Nast Traveler.

Employees Reveal What its Like to Work at Apple.

Employees Reveal What its Like to Work at Apple. Employees Reveal What its Like to Work at Apple. As a brand, Apple is worth $145.3 billion, which makes it the most valuable brand in the world. It is also one of the most globally admired companies and there are many who  dream  of working under the bitten apple symbol. If youre one of them, be sure to be awesome at what youre doing because working at Apple simply isnt for just anybody. How to get work at Apple? If you eventually get a work  at Apple, you’re allowed to boast a little. Apple chooses its employees very carefully they let only the best people in the industry working for them, so getting hired might work as an effective ego booster. Find out what its like to work at Apple according to employees Apple Inc. is headquartered in Cupertino, California. Its main campus was getting a bit too small so the Apple leaders decided to build a new one, one mile east from the current one, and its already getting nicknames such as spaceship or donut thanks to its circular, quite extravagant design.   So, how does it feel to work at Apple? At first glance it may seem that working for Apple alone is a dream come true, but its not always butterflies and rainbows. Apple allegedly pays its employees well, which is a generally strong argument. There are also plenty of perks that the Apple employees get, such as discounts for all the Apple products,  lots of team building events with free food and drinks and, as the story goes, great bosses who let you think for yourself and come up with your own ideas. And of course, free supply of apples for everybody! A great advantage is that work at Apple increases your chances to get hired when you next apply for a job . Having Apple Inc. written in your work experience section of your resume definitely gets you some extra points.   Despite all this, many former Apple employees have stated on Quora or Glassdoor that their day-to-day lives at Apple werent always as terrific as everyone thinks. Many said theres a huge secrecy in the office together with a certain amount of paranoia from the team leaders. Employees are not allowed to talk to anybody about what they are working on and are allegedly threatened to be fired if they but mention something to their spouse or colleague. At Apple, working on a new product comes very close to a top secret mission. Some people complain about the work environment being “too corporate” and many agree on a fact that working at Apple is nowhere as cool as working in, say, Facebook, Google or LinkedIn. Apple offices are said to be very strict and rigid, providing no fun and relaxing amenities to their employees. No napping rooms, ping-pong, foosball or gym? How awful is that?! Its all just work,  work, work there at the Cupertino campus so it seems.   For those of you who dream of working at Apple one day, be prepared to be the best of the best. In their own words: “We’re perfectionists. Idealists. Inventors. Forever tinkering with products and processes, always on the lookout for better. Whether you work at one of our global offices, offsite, or even at home, a job at Apple will be demanding. But it also rewards bright, original thinking and hard work. And none of us here would have it any other way.” Share Your Feedback or Ideas in the Comments!

Are There Lies on Your Resume Most Likely, Yes!

Are There Lies on Your Resume Most Likely, Yes! Are There Lies on Your Resume Most Likely, Yes! 2Maybe it’s because you’re applying for too many positions- and not getting enough callbacks. Or maybe it’s because you’ve been job searching for what seems like centuries (even though it’s only been about a month). That can explain why you’re starting to feel a little, well, desperate and might start “embellishing” your job application in the hopes of landing a job. For whatever reason, most people have lies on their resume. Honestly, you’re not alone. Are There Lies on Your Resume? Most Likely, Yes! According to research from HireRight, a candidate due diligence company, nearly two-thirds of job applicants (63 percent) have fibbed a bit on their job application. HireRight discovered that job applications with a little white lie sprinkled here and there has reached its highest level since 2011. Their findings about resume lies come from an account analysis of 100,000 checks from 26,000 applications. On their most recent quarterly Candidate Health Check report, they found that job candidates were likely to put down incorrect info in the education section of their resume, to the tune of nearly 39 percent. But it doesn’t end there. More than one-third (36 percent) of job seekers have lied about their employment history, and nearly three in ten (30 percent) have made false claims about their professional qualifications, skills, and memberships. And if you think that all of these resume lies only pertains to certain job seekers, think again. Even executive-level job applicants are telling tall tales, too- and the number has risen every quarter for the past 18 months. An estimated 25 percent of job applications for director’s positions contain inaccurate information. This equals a 40 percent increase in falsified job applications compared to the same time last year. While research found that most organizations were more trustworthy of the people applying for senior positions, it seems that anyone is capable of embellishing their job application. As a job seeker, what does this mean for you? For starters, it’s important to always tell the truth on your resume and cover letter. After all, it’s becoming much easier for employers to review your job application and confirm if the info on it is true or false. If a potential boss does discover that you’ve lied, you can not only kiss that job goodbye, but probably any chances of working for that company, both now and in the future. Also, you never know who your prospective boss might know; depending on the whoppers you’ve told on your job application, he could mention your name (and the lies you’ve told) to fellow colleagues in the industry, and you could create a bad reputation for yourself before you’ve even landed a job. Fight the temptation to stretch the truth. As tempting as it might be to stretch the truth a little, keep your job application as clean as possible. If some parts seem weak, find ways in which to strengthen them without lying. If you have employment gaps that you’re trying to cover, switch resume formats. Lacking skills? Try bulking them up by taking a course online or volunteering while you job search. There are ways to get around putting lies on your resume. Be smart, be honest, and stay strong during your job search, and you’ll soon find a position that you’ll love. Honest. Readers, do you have lies on your resume or cover letter? Have you ever gotten caught? Let us know what happened in the comments below!

Goal! Keeping Sports Available to Kids

Goal! Keeping Sports Available to Kids Goal! Keeping Sports Available to Kids At Robert Half, what we do is helping people do what they love. For Jim Dinneen, that extends outside the office. Dinneen, the executive director of Robert Half’s Salaried Professional Service, co-founded and helps run a nonprofit foundation called Spartans4Life that enables children to play hockey - even when the cost of the sport gets prohibitive for their families. Along with a handful of friends and local business leaders in the New Hampshire area, Dinneen created the nonprofit as an arm of the Sports4Life Foundation, which started in Canada. The goal is to provide financial aid to families in need, so that their sons or daughters can keep playing the sport they love. With equipment, tournament fees, ice rink time and other costs, playing in a hockey league can cost a few thousand dollars, whether for a 6-year-old child or an 18-year-old high schooler. Hockey has always been a big part of Dinneen’s life, starting with his high school and college days as an athlete. He even played professionally for a couple of years in the minor leagues. His 12-year-old son and 6-year-old daughter play the sport, following in their father’s skate tracks. Based in Manchester, N.H., Dinneen still remembers the first time his organization was able to help someone, about four years ago. A parent in his kids’ league, where he volunteer-coaches, was diagnosed with cancer. The family ended up in debt, but the group was able to fully fund everything for their son to continue playing hockey. “It’s a little thing that allows them some normalcy,” Dinneen said. “And the parents didn’t have to worry about their child not being able to play. That was really rewarding.” Since then, the organization has been able to repeat the gift of sports over and over again. Dinneen has found that hockey teaches important life skills, including teamwork and discipline. The group organizes three or four fundraisers a year, most of which are held on weekends. Sure, it takes a lot of time to plan events and manage a nonprofit. But much like how we work here, Dinneen finds that technology and mobility are most helpful in fitting everything in. “We mostly do conference calls at night, and it doesn’t matter where I’m at - California, Boston or wherever,” Dinneen said. Moreover, taking on this kind of commitment isn’t a struggle to balance with other parts of his life because he does it with his friends, so they integrate responsibilities with family and friend time. “Our whole families will get together to hang out,” Dinneen said. “We carve out some time to plan our next fundraiser, decide where to allocate money and discuss other board business. “It’s a commitment, but it’s extremely rewarding, especially when we get a letter from a family we’ve assisted saying how much their kid loves hockey,” Dinneen continued. “It matters that they get to keep doing the thing they love.”

While Youll Be Unpacking Your Presents, These People Will Be Working

While Youll Be Unpacking Your Presents, These People Will Be Working While Youll Be Unpacking Your Presents, These People Will Be Working Maybe you haven’t given it a thought yet, but there are thousands of employees at work while we’re scoffing turkey and squabbling over who gets control of the television remote. For example doctors or nurses, those that work in international trade or emergency services. These and many other professionals  keep the country ticking over while the rest of us are enjoying ourselves. They deserve our gratitude for their perseverance and willingness to make the Christmas magic work for all of us. Let’s now zoom in on 6 professions that simply never sleep and require working during the festive season, too. 1. Zookeepers If you happen to be a zookeeper, your Christmas could easily be looking after a handful of squirrel monkeys. Christmas Day is usually the only day of the year that the zoo is shut to visitors. But the animals to care are still there. They need to be cleaned and get something to eat as usual.  But besides that, animals in the zoos the world over get some holiday pampering, too. “We get about 45 minutes for lunch rather than half an hour. It is Christmas after all.” Jon Ovens, zookeeper Monkeys feast on boxes full of nuts to rip open. Chimps get a mince pie along with their usual fruit and veggies. Lemurs enjoy pinecones stuffed with some treats. And other animals love to play games and do some training, finally being able to enjoy zookeepers’ undivided attention. 2. Firefighters These tough guys have to work shifts and holidays are no exception. Fires can start unexpectedly so there needs to be someone on duty all year round. “It’s not ideal working Christmas Day but I think it’s part of the job. It comes with the responsibilty as a firefighter. I think my family understand that as well.” Phil Bennett, firefighter For firefighters, it’s important to stay alert 24/7 at this time of year. Christmas Day can actually get quite busy with small kitchen fires. Especially in the country, it’s not uncommon for people to get their ovens alight, ending up with a burnt turkey or worse. Their Christmas Day, just like any other, starts with a routine. There’s a roll call at ‘change of watch’ when the day shift crews take over from the night shift crews. Daily sustenance for the crew usually consists of a tray of tea, coffee and biscuits (and perhaps a mince pie at this time of the year). The daily schedule would have the crew performing training drills but on Christmas Day theyre excused to skip it. Instead, they’re invested in crafting their own Christmas lunch that’s prepared, cooked and consumed practically ‘on-the-run’.     3. Doctors and nurses Hospital staff have to take care of patients staying in hospitals with conditions that prevent them from going home such as fractures or muscle infections. Nurses are giving them medications and helping them with their eating, drinking and keeping clean. But during Christmas, their competencies extend to providing entertainment and doing their best to create a festive atmosphere. “In one unit I worked in, the staff had a tradition of best Christmas jumper on Christmas day with a prize for the winner. This was always a subject of fierce competition amongst the staff over who could get the tackiest, brightest jumper.” Ruth Underdown, specialist nurse Many of those staying on the ward are older patients. For a majority of them, it’s the first Christmas they are spending away from home. The experience can be naturally quite upsetting. So nurses need to make sure their patients see a friendly face and that everything’s as pleasant as it can be. Sometimes they also provide assistance to patients that want to wear something special for Christmas. Not only do nurses help them pick their outfit, but also get washed, get dressed and brush their hair. People often take things like this for granted but older people appreciate tiny little details that their days consist of. From helping with unwrapping the presents on the Christmas Day to watching telly with them for a bit, there’s always something heartwarming that nurses can do for those that can’t be with their families and relatives. 4. Ship pilots The shopping spree we all fall for every December makes the festive season an extremely busy time for global shipping. The responsibility of making your Amazon or eBay package arrive on time falls on maritime transport and huge international ships. The job of a ship pilot involves  guiding vessels through dangerous waters and bringing them into the harbour. Along the way, they need to ensure the safety of the ship, protect the environment and speed up the process to save shipping firms money. Although ship owners usually do their best to get the ships in before the holidays, ship pilots never actually know whether or not theyre going to work on Christmas Day. 5. Meteorologists Many people travel about at Christmas and meteorologists need to make sure everyones  safe and sound while they do.  Besides picking the best weather windows for travelling, they also must inform the public should any poor weather conditions occur. Christmas Day of a weather forecaster involves briefing all types of media so that broadcasters and news websites can provide reliable information. And also - an extremely important task - answering the question whether 2018 will officially have a white Christmas. 6. Midwives Midwives spend the Christmas Day with their colleagues on the labour ward looking after women during labour, delivering babies and caring for them after delivery. With the responsibilities of the job always at the forefront of their minds, midwives can afford no distractions. When delivering a baby regardless of time, night or day, their focus must remain solely on the health and welfare of both mother and baby. However, the atmosphere after birth is lighter and more festive than usual - Christmas is a celebration of a birth and new family, after all. “Theres a competition among the hospital units to create the best decoration. Last year the maternity unit created an advent calendar with the babies born each day written in each window.” Sarah-Louise Laing, midwife Living the magic of Christmas Christmas invites us to slow down. Its a special time of the year that makes us realise everything is a gift.   So spare a thought for those who will be hard at work while you’re opening presents, messing about with your new gadgets or sipping a glass of red wine. Their jobs require them to work be it day or night and leave their comfy couch for an office chair. While away from their families, they’ll be beneficial to the society they belong to and serve those who truly need it. And that’s what Christmas is really about, right?

Why I Spoke to My Boss About My Insecurities - The Muse

Why I Spoke to My Boss About My Insecurities - The Muse Why I Spoke to My Boss About My Insecurities I recently ran into a bit of a snag on a project I was working on. And no matter what I tried, it just felt like I was never going to get it right. So, after staring at the same document for a couple of days, I did something I never thought I’d do: I told my boss I was having a hard time and opened up about how insecure this made me feel. At first, I immediately regretted approaching her. After all, she’s my boss, and not only do I respect and admire her, I was afraid of looking completely lost in front of her. But, when she gave me the exact confidence boost I needed, I ended up learning some valuable lessons about admitting that I wasn’t feeling my best. 1. Not Getting Something Right the First Time Doesn’t Make You Bad at Your Job I tend to be hard on myself, even though as a full-time writer, I know that very few people write first drafts that are just so good, their editors say, “This is incredible, let’s just run it!” However, it’s totally understandable for people in any line of work to feel like they’re just the worst because their first pass at something didn’t go as planned. Of course, this isn’t something I’m typically good at understanding, because like everyone else, I dream of being the exception. But here’s what I have to remember: Sometimes my first drafts are strong, and other times, they’re just a little more challenging than anticipated. But, that doesn’t make me bad at my job. And it doesn’t make you bad at yours, either. 2. Admitting You Need Help Makes You a Better Teammate I’m fortunate enough to work with some insanely smart people on a daily basis, so I put a lot of pressure on myself to get things done without much help. And although my mother would probably approve of this mindset to a certain extent, there’s one serious flaw with this kind of thinking. If you don’t understand something, you actually could be holding back your team from getting something critical done. What’s worse, nobody’s going to know how much you’re struggling if you don’t speak up for yourself. So, when I fessed up to my boss about how down I was feeling, not only did I get the confidence boost I needed, I also got the chance to talk the project out with her. And ultimately, we realized it was a project that required more thought, would take more time, and require me to ask a few other people some additional questions. All good things, right? From where I’m sitting, they’re all things I would have never realized if I hadn’t gotten up the courage to admit I was stuck. 3. Even the Most Experienced People Need a Little Encouragement The more people I talk to about this whole thing, the more that I realize that some of the most talented people I know run into this problem, too. While it was a little bit of a shock to me at first, it makes perfect sense. Because who on the face of this earth knows what they’re doing 100% of the time. And how many people, no matter how smart they are, have gone their entire lives without asking for a little bit of help? Sure, there are plenty of people out there who haven’t asked outright for a bit of a confidence boost, but I’d wager that nobody you know has done his or her job without asking for assistance at one point or another. Sometimes when you’re working hard, you hit a wall. And when you hit that wall, it’s perfectly OK to ask for a few words of encouragement, even if you’re the best at whatever it is you do for a living. I’m sure there are plenty of people who would still feel uneasy about going up to a boss or colleague and saying, “Hey, this project’s making me feel like an idiot. Can you remind me why I was chosen to lead it?” And I’ll admit that it still makes me uncomfortable, especially since I still haven’t figured out how to stop beating myself up when I don’t do something perfectly. But, every time I’ve asked for a little help, I remembered that saying those words aloud doesn’t cause the world to collapse. And when I asked for a little bit of a pep talk from my boss recently, I didn’t get fired or lose her trust. If anything, I became a little better at my job in ways I wouldn’t have if I hadn’t spoken up about how I was feeling a little lost. So, next time you need that confidence boost, think about straight up asking for it. And, taking this concept a little further, the next time you see a colleague struggling give him or her a few words of encouragement yourself.

Customizing Wheelchairs with 3D Printing

Customizing Wheelchairs with 3D Printing Customizing Wheelchairs with 3D Printing Customizing Wheelchairs with 3D Printing How many owners have a seat in their car that truly shapes to their body? And how many can say the same about their favorite chair at home? But lets say were talking about a wheelchair. Says Benjamin Hubert, design director of Layer, based in London, UK: With wheelchairs, many people dont have nearly enough choices. And when you think about how people rely on wheelchairs, with better customization, what a difference it could make. And thats what Huberts team might just be able to do: make a difference. As it has with many attempts to improve physical comfort, the 3D printer is very much at the center of this mission, creating the seat and footrest of the custom models created by Layer. The project started with looking at the wheelchair category but 3D printing came later, he says. We found there just wasnt enough being done for users, from asymmetry to body shape and more. Research is so critical in our work. Biometric data is key, with the user creating data points and its translated through algorithm to generative structure and the structure is different each time. The computer cant entirely measure, so manual human assessment is used in combination with data being translated. The custom form of the seat and foot-bay is driven by 3D digital data derived from mapping each users biometric information. Image: Layer Part of the design comes from users being fit into foam, he says. The foam is a pre-mold, with the user sitting in the foam. It then cures to hold the shape and then is sent to be 3D scanned. Among the many aspects of a customized chair, one might not think about the comfort of users feet, but its critical to the user experience, Hubert says. We can scan peoples feet and work with insoles, he says. A leading problem is that users can find that their feet will turn in and thats an area of strong frustration. But customization is also about determining the features certain users dont want, he says. For one person who gave us feedback, theyd go out with friends and find theyd push them with assisting bars and without permission, he says. They felt like a doll. There is also a clear need in the area of style, he says. They can be very mechanical, boxy frames and many users would like a better visual, he says. Many users want to be seen first, head-on, instead of the chair. One current design is a specific frame that works with a 3D printing system. You cant just retrofit the seat to any existing frame, he says. The frame for the design is a single-post, sort of T-shaped framework. The seat mounts on to the single post. That single post set-up allows for freedom of flexibility. The printer utilized for the prototype is an industrial-sized type called Mammoth, approximately three meters by one meter, he says. Though the work so far has been encouraging, Hubert says, hes quick to remind that theyre still in prototype mode. Its not simple when you think of a prototyping process and then, on top of it, that its the medical industry, Hubert says. Challenges include cost and efficiency of the process. Its a positive process but you still have to remember that this can take a decent amount of years to get to the end. Hubert says the present estimate is that the product would get to the user in two weeks, with the actual printing time being approximately three days. As a designer, your ambition is to solve problems and make things incrementally better for people, he says of the project, which has also involved extensive road testing. These users deserve a chair that fits them well, in many ways. Eric Butterman is an independent writer. As a designer, your ambition is to solve problems and make things incrementally better for people. These users deserve a chair that fits them well, in many ways.Benjamin Hubert, Layer

Heres What It Takes to Work in Cybersecurity, According to the CTO of ManTech

If needed, we bring the candidate in for a follow-up interview to evaluate other relevant soft skills. Throughout the process we expect candidates to be interviewing us as well.  We want to ensure that new employees coming on board know what to expect and are truly excited for their roles. Glassdoor:  What questions do you personally like to ask candidates you interview with? Srini N. Iyer:   Typically, I provide a sample task, scenario or problem during my interviews. I’d like to see how the candidate thinks on their feet. I’d also like to see how they approach the problem, understand their logical and analytical skills, along with their technical capabilities. I’ve been known to offer up my whiteboard so candidates can also draw out their concepts and solutions as they are explaining them. Glassdoor: What are 2 to 3 red flags that turn you off to a candidate? What are traits that go against ManTech’s values and mission? Srini N. Iyer:   Someone who’s not a self-starter or a go-getter, essentially waiting to be told what to do next. Someone not passionate about their field or area of expertise.

This is why you should publicize your failures and not be ashamed

This is why you should publicize your failures and not be ashamed This is why you should publicize your failures and not be ashamed It’s been one year since I started the  Famous Failures podcast, where I interview the world’s most interesting people about their failures and what they learned from them. As you might imagine, asking guests to appear on the show has made for some interesting conversations.“Hey Dan, I have a podcast where I interview failures. You’d be perfect for it.”Surprisingly though, most people I’ve approached have been eager to appear on the show because they know firsthand what many neglect: Anyone who’s done anything meaningful has failed in some fashion. Having    interviewed  40 titans on the podcast- including top entrepreneurs, Olympic medalists, and New York Times bestselling authors- one thing is clear: Everyone- and I mean, everyone- is a walking imperfection.But most of us are terrible at owning up to our goofs. Our public image is synonymous with our self-worth. We puff ourselves up and create curated portrayals of our imperfect and flawed lives. We round off the edge s, airbrush the negatives, and present a perfect image to the world devoid of any failures.Even when we talk about our failures, we do so in a flattering light. Our response resembles the typical answer to the much-dreaded What’s your biggest weakness? interview question: I work too hard.I get it. It’s painful to fail. Airing your failures can compound the pain. But the opposite approach- denial and avoidance- make things worse. When we pretend we didn’t fail, when we reframe our failures as successes, or when we hold funerals for failed startups complete with bagpipes and DJs spinning records- as Silicon Valley does- we don’t learn anything.In order to learn and grow, we must acknowledge our failures, without celebrating them. Take, for example, the approach of Sara Blakely, the founder and CEO of Spanx. She went from selling fax machines door-to-door to becoming the world’s youngest self-made female billionaire. At company-wide meetings, Blakely  highlights her own “oo ps” moments. Likewise, Ed Catmull- the president of Pixar and Disney Animation Studios- talks about the mistakes he’s made at new employee orientations: “We do not want people to assume that because we’re successful, everything we do is right,” he  explains.  . The economist Tyler Cowen wrote a detailed analysis of how, in the lead-up to the 2007 financial crisis, he “badly underestimated the chance that something systemic had gone wrong in the American economy.” “I regret that I was wrong,” Cowen  wrote, “and I regret that I was overconfident in my belief that I was right.”Acknowledging failures is particularly important for role models- leaders, teachers, and celebrities. We tend to put them on a pedestal. We assume they’re superheroes with skills and talents that mere mortals lack. We believe their success was predestined and cooked into their DNA.But if we saw the messy reality behind the seemingly untarnished glamour, we would be more comfortable to make mistakes and less likely to become paralyzed when failures start to hit. With their failures revealed, our role models look more human and less divine.This is why Wharton professor Adam Grant opens his very first class with a story about his biggest failures. “I want students to feel comfortable challenging me, asking me questions, seeking help, and asking advice,” Grant  told  me.Leading by example is cliche- because it works.Research  shows  that people pay close attention to the leader’s behavior since they depend on the leader for recognition. Research also  shows  that people look to the leader to take the first step in initiating a change. If leaders fail to acknowledge their failures- if there’s a perception that the leader can do no wrong- it’s unrealistic to expect employees to take the risk of challenging the leader or revealing their own failures.Consider  a study  of sixteen hospitals with top-tier cardiac surgery departments. The cardiac teams led by surgeons who were more willing to acknowledge their own fallibility were the most successful at implementing an innovative technology for conducting surgery. For example, one surgeon repeatedly told his team: “I need to hear from you because I’m likely to miss things.” Another surgeon would say, “I screwed up. My judgment was bad in this case.”What made these messages effective was their repetition.Entrenched behaviors don’t change with one impassioned speech. As team members heard these messages over and over again, they developed the psychological safety to speak up- even in an environment as hierarchical as heart surgery. “There are no sacred cows,” a member of one surgery team explained, “If somebody needs to be told something, then they are told- surgeon or orderly.”Whether you’re in the operating room, the boardroom, or the classroom, the principle is the same: The road to success is filled with potholes. You’re better off acknowledging them than pretending the y don’t exist.Ozan Varol is a rocket scientist turned law professor and bestselling author.  Click here  to download a free copy of his e-book, The Contrarian Handbook: 8 Principles for Innovating Your Thinking.

How to Use Your Parent Experience to Find a Job

How to Use Your Parent Experience to Find a Job How to Use Your Parent Experience to Find a Job How to Use Your Parent Experience to Find a Job Courtesy: www.setantafitness.com Becoming a parent is an amazing life changing experience. There is nothing quite like it and it is something I highly recommend to everyone, that is like another kind of career coaching based on real practice and leading by your child. However, taking time off work to look after your brood can undoubtedly leave you feeling that you are behind your peers when it comes to finding a job after time out. Your confidence can take a knock and you may feel that you are lacking some skills when filling out that job application. What you may not have considered, is the arsenal of skills and experiences that you will have built up since becoming a parent, that will go on to serve you well in any job. When applying for roles, don’t just turn to work experience when looking for examples, there are many other areas that will contribute to skill development and becoming a parent is one of them. Time management You may have thought you were good at managing your time before. Your job may have required you to prioritise work-loads, manage the timings of others and work to strict deadlines. Since becoming a parent, you have managed your time to ensure that you are able to get out of the house in time with toddlers in tow (not an easy task), managed multiple meal times, nap times, school runs and bedtime schedules to ensure minimal meltdowns, whilst co-ordinating monumental washing loads on top of all of your everyday tasks. Don’t under-estimate this. Patience Patience is taken to a whole new level when you’re a parent. Dealing with toddler tantrums, crying through the night and meals you’ve spent ages preparing to be shunted by your little darlings takes an enormous amount of patience. Patience may not seem like a skill but if you can deal with the things that children throw at you and take it in your stride, you will have developed the skill of becoming more tolerant and accepting of others. Managing conflict Managing conflict may be key in some job roles and as a parent, you will have had plenty of experience of this. You will have developed ways to stop your children fighting but also ways of navigating through potentially hostile situations with other parents. There are a number of things you may be able to draw on here. Multi-tasking Multi-tasking becomes such an every-day occurrence when you’re a parent that you might not consider it a skill. However, if you are able to sculpt Play-Doh masterpieces whilst holding a baby and making the dinner, any job role which requires you to do more than one thing at a time will seem like a breeze. Communication Having a young child requires you to adopt alternative means of communication. You have to adapt the way you speak so that they can understand and you will be relying much more heavily on body language, facial expressions and gestures to communicate with your baby. You may even learn baby sign. Becoming a parent also often means starting a whole different life socially. You will be getting out and meeting new people at various groups. All of these things are a fantastic way to improve your communication skills. Budgeting You might be lucky enough not to have to worry about money but chances are, your finances will take a knock if you’re not working or are on maternity/paternity leave. This will require you to be much stricter financially and to set budgets. This is the sort of skill that will serve you well in many jobs. Problem Solving Examples of problem solving abilities don’t just have to be from work. There are going to be countless times when as a parent, you have had to solve a problem to make your family happy. Whether it was a question of finances, childcare arrangements or ways to get fruit and vegetables into your children, you will have a whole wealth of examples.
