I have had an e-mail from a gentleman with something on his mind. Since what is irking him may be of general interest, he has been good enough to allow me to dissertate on it right here. As a matter of fact, it's of a touch more than general interest, because his is exactly the kind of account that the freelances among us earn our bread and butter from. So it could be a lesson learned.The gentlem
If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you need to raise your work profile. Here are some tips to get you started.
1. Listen more than you talk. If you offer an opinion, suggestion, comment or question at every opportunity, soon people will run away when they see you coming. Remember when you were in college and there was always one smart-aleck who, when the class was asked, “Are there any more questions?” would shoot his hand in the air and hold the class up? Don’t be that student in the boardroom. If you listen carefully and confine yourself to intelligent and to the-point remarks, you’ll end up looking smarter than most of the people in the room. And when you do have something to say, everyone will listen.
2. Meetings aren’t for airing dirty laundry. If you have a problem or gripe with someone, bring it to his or her attention privately. When you point fingers or air departmental problems in a group setting, you (a) blindside the person you’re complaining about, and (b) have just about ruined your chances for a peaceful resolution. Besides, the next time you make a mistake, that person will fall all over himself to make sure to bring it up in a large meeting just to watch you squirm.

Small, medium and large businesses across America have been burdened almost to the point of extinction due to the miss management of our regulatory bodies. I have been to every city in the country over 10,000 population and I have seen the destruction that regulatory agency regulations cause through unintended and unanticipated consequences, what is wrong with reducing your regulations and helping the c

Franchisee associations are unions. In the modern business world if a group of employees want to form a union and the employer doesn’t want it then the employer has a right to close the company. I believe franchisors ought to be allowed to put in the contract that if any franchisees get together and form a franchise association to use as collective bargaining power against the franchisor, other than a

Ethnic marketing- There I just said it. It is not a dirty word anymore. So why is black guy Howard from the Halifax still 'entertaining' the white majority audience?The issue of marketing to diverse and multi-cultural societies in an optimum manner is something that I think is continuously carried out ineffectively with little consideration.Living in London is like living in a real life U
3. Try to catch people doing something right. Whether boss, co-worker or subordinate, people love to be told they’re doing a good job. You don’t have to turn into Eddie Haskell to be aware of opportunities to compliment someone. Keep it short, low-key and honest. It’s even better if you can pass the compliment to someone else. “Hey, boss, Jim was a huge help to us on the Acme project – he made some suggestions that should save us $20,000.” What are the chances that the boss is going to mention it to Jim the next time he sees him? Pretty good.
4. Know when to hold ‘em and know when to fold ‘em. Pick your battles. If you’ve made the best case you can for doing something a certain way and the boss decides to do it Sally’s way, smile and go along (unless doing it Sally’s way is going to send you to jail). If your way really is better, people will remember that when Sally folds like a cheap card table. When you do decide to keep fighting to do it your way, make sure it’s something worth fighting for and not just because you can’t stand to lose. If you only start a war when the stakes are high you have a better chance of coming out on top than if you try to fight every low-level skirmish like Sherman going through Atlanta.
5. Don’t hide your mistakes. As soon as it becomes apparent that something has gone wrong, take it to your boss and be upfront about what happened. Have a plan laid out to correct the problem and limit the fallout. You should be able to tell the boss that you’ve already put the recovery in motion and exactly what the final outcome will be.
