I don’t know how to start? I think it’s too tough? Or time consuming? These were all the questions which popped into my mind whenever I thought about writing my own blog. Instead of thinking why we should write a blog? Let’s think over why we shouldn’t hesitate to write it. People are usually willing to write and start their own blog but most of the time they stop dead due to below mentioned reasons:…

Good call:
“The leaders who work most effectively, it seems to me, never say ‘I’. And that’s not because they have trained themselves not to say ‘I’. They don’t think ‘I’. They think ‘we’; they think ‘team’. They understand their job to be to make the team function. They accept responsibility and don’t sidestep it, but ‘we’ get the credit…. This is what creates trust, what…

Social media allows recruiters to build connections very quickly. But the key to attracting quality candidates is in turning cold connections into receptive potential candidates.
To strengthen the value of networks on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn, recruiters should offer more than job opportunities, and aim to…

Many of our professional clients ask us for advice on how to negotiate a pay rise.
It is one of those topical areas that everybody is interested in but no-one seems to talk about.
So Let’s Talk …

When I was a student, Career Development was not a topic I ever heard discussed. My school had a careers advisor and that person would, so it seemed to me, review a student's subject results and then recommend a likely job or profession.
In 1980's Hobart, my recollection of the options were something like, depending upon your subjects and marks, one of; Lawyer, Accountant, Scientist, Teacher, Nurse, Tradie, Architect, Engineer, Secretary or Public Servant'. The creative types were…
