Add You - 5 Ways to Make a Cracking Career Move
Many of us are so wrapped up in our business that we don’t have a chance to step back and reflect for a moment, on who we are in our lives. This is a problem that all of us face at one time or another whether we are a corporate executive or a live at home parent. I can remember being a child growing up in middle class America wondering what it would be like to have all the material wealth in the world. While still in grade school, who I be was a kid whose only concerns were Saturday morning cartoons and what mom was cooking for diner. As time went on and I learned the “rules” of my parents house, as much as I just wanted to be, I created this story that I could no longer be, and had to do the things necessary to live in my fathers house, by following his rules.After I moved out of my parents house, I created this story that I was tired of doing the things that my parents made me do and saw all the things that I could have with my new found freedom. I began working and started having all these new material possessions. I also had to worry about what I had t

Who would you love to work for? Forget for a moment about what you’d be doing, think about which companies and organisations you’d love to work with or for. Which organisations push your hot buttons? If you could work for any company, who would it be?
Thinking about the ideal company to work with or for (as an employee, a contractor, a consultant, etc.) sets you free to look at companies you respect, admire and who do something that you can connect with. That already ticks a whole load of boxes and sets you ahead of the game.<
In the past moving pallet rack from one location to another location was overwhelming and time consuming. The process of relocating pallet rack first begins with unloading all of the stored material from the storage system (pallet rack) and finding a temporary home for it until the new location is ready. After the storage system has been unloaded, the tear down or demo of the rack would begin. The tear down process seems to be less time consuming than the rebuilding of the storage system but equipment such as forklifts and scissor lifts are need for both the tear down and rebuilding of the storage system adding another cost to the project. After the pallet rack is torn down or disassembled, the components would be stacked and organized for stable movement to the new location. Upon arrival at the new location, re-assembly of the pallet rack would proceed. After the storage system is re-assembled and anchored to the floor, the pallet rack is ready to store material. Sounds easy and it is but very time consuming and considerable downtime of the facility has to be exp
- Look at Your Wiring
Your brain has billions and billions of neurons connected to each other by even more synapses. I’m not going to count them. These synapses are the pathways of the brain and they enable information to flow freely and allow you to think and do. Some of the synapses will be like motorways, throwing huge amounts of information around really quickly, while others will be like a little country lane blocked by a tractor – not very effective.The stronger pathways will be the things you’re best at and it’s by capitalising on how your brain’s wired that you’ll get your best results. In the real world that means that the things that come naturally to you (your talents), the things you’re best at (your strengths) and the things that mean the most to you (your values) are hardwired into you, and those are the things that you excel at.
Talent
A talent is something that comes naturally to you and can be any recurring pattern of feeling, thought or behaviour that you can apply to get a positive result. It tends to be something you do without even thinking about, something that seems to come spontaneously from the top of your head, something that’s always exerted a ‘pull’ for you or something that might feel like a whole bank of switches have been flicked to the ‘on’ position when you use it.Strength
A strength is a combination of your skills, experience and talents. A strength is something that you’re able to do at a consistently high or near-perfect level of performance. It’s the accumulation and application of what you’ve learned works well, the skills that you’ve worked at and gained, and the talents you’ve always had. It’s likely that you derive some kind of inherent satisfaction from doing it and maybe you can picture yourself quite happily doing it repeatedly.Value
Your values are ten thousand feet down inside you, right at the very core of who you are. They’re the building blocks, the foundations and cornerstones for you, and are the things in yourself, in others or in the world that are most important to you. You know those times when you’ve felt really alive, on top of your game or buzzing? Those are the times when one or more of your values are being honoured, and you can get more of that by living according to them. - Find What's Always Been There
When I was around 6 or 7 years old I remember being asked by my primary school teacher what I wanted to be when I grew up. I reflected for a moment and torn between two options I replied 'I'm not sure. Either an artist or an inventor'. I had two pictures - one of me in a huge studio, being swept along in the moment as I created magnificent works of art that would make people weep, and another of me in a lab coat with crazy hair surrounded by bubbling test tubes and all manner of electronic devices as I used everything I knew to build Something Amazing (TM). Those two sides have always been there for me (typical Gemini) - the art and the science, the creative and the logical, the head and the heart.As a 6 year old boy I'd identified that both areas were hugely important to me, and those two areas persist for me to this day. A day when I can use my logic and my creativity is a great day because I get to use the things that have always been there for me.
I share that with you because having work that includes the things that have persisted for you is absolutely critical in terms of loving your work and getting more out of it. Ignoring those themes and dismissing what's always been there for you is ignoring who you are and who you've always been, and it's a surefire way for you to be unfulfilled in your work. It's critical to know what those persistent themes are, because you can then integrate them into what you do, both in and out of your work.

The term manufacturing refers to the conversion of raw materials into finished products for sale, by means of the use of tools and a processing medium. This includes all midway processes involving the production or finishing of constituent parts. Some industries like semiconductors and steel producers adopt the term fabrication. A manufacturer is a person, an endeavor, or an entity that manufactures something and this includes everything from toothbrushes to airplanes.Often, different manufacturers come together and form an association. For instance, National Association of Manufacturers or NAM is the biggest and most prominent industrial trade association. Its job is to improve the competitiveness of manufacturers, by shaping a legislative and regulatory background beneficial to US economic growth. It also works towards increasing the understanding amongst policymakers, the media and the general community about the crucial role of manufacturing, with regards to the economic prospects and living standards. It represents small and large manufacturers in every indu

Adding value is not one of those management buzz words we use loosely but don't really understand. To your patients, adding value can simply mean doing more than you promise to do. The idea behind adding value is that the customer gains a perceived benefit without having to pay for it - or pay very little, compared with its value to the customer.Adding value offers many benefits to your hospital. It differentiates you from your competitors and builds customer loyalty. When clients receive more than they ask for, they feel they are getting their money's worth. This dramatically reduces, if not eliminates, buyer's remorse. Another major benefit to adding value is it allows you to charge more because you offer more than your competitors. Finally, adding value builds, strengthens and confirms your reputation as the cream of the crop. When you offer more than you promise, clients view you as the best in your industry, and you are.Adding value means doing more than you promise to do. Ideally you want to offer something that has a low cost to you but a high value

Starting a business can take a lot of time, money, and energy. And because we don’t want to completely re-invent the wheel, we often want to copy (legally) other techniques, strategies or processes used by others. While copying others has many benefits, namely using tried and true methods as well as saving time and money, the true success of your business will come from your own uniqueness.You are unique, different from each and every other person on the planet. Leveraging your uniqueness and embracing it as your true self is the key to creating a marketing message that comes from your passion and purpose. And, it is your passion and purpose, combined with the unique way you develop and deliver your product or service that makes you attractive to customers.1. DNA. You are encoded uniquely by virtue of your DNA structure. No one on the earth has the same DNA as you. That is a big thought. At your most basic level, you are unique. How can you take that idea and celebrate the fact that you are one of a kind?2. Strengths. Each of us possesse

8 out of 10 people land their next job through a personal contact rather than an advertisement so this is a great way to learn about and pursue opportunities. Get clear on those organisations you’d love to work for, find out the name of someone in the right place in the organisation and send in a killer letter and CV. Don’t fall into the trap of thinking ‘But why would they want me?’ or ‘’What the heck would I do for them?’ and research their different fields of work or look into filling a skills gap with some training. You never can tell how things happen sometimes, and you’ve got nothing to lose.
Too many people start off by thinking in terms of job titles, but I tend to think that should come later in the job searching process. I always ask people to create their next job from the inside-out by looking at what the job would involve and what they’d be doing, rather than operating within the confines of a title.
So think about it, what would your ideal job involve? What skills, talents, strengths, values, passions and interests would you be using that would make it a great job? How would you be working ? In an office? By yourself or in a team? What kind of people will be around you? Are you out on the road? Are you working from home? Are there deadlines? How do you make your contribution? What’s fun about the work? What’s fulfilling about the work?
And on, and on, and on. The point is to create your best job by looking at the size and shape that your ideal job would have. Quantify what you can, think about the framework you’d be working in and the boundaries or deal breakers you have. Think about what would light you up in your work and what would make you proud.
Job titles can limit how you think and where you look for work. By creating your next career move from the inside-out you’re painting a picture of what you’d love to have and how you’d love to be working, and that’s a fantastic template to apply to any job search.
Sometimes it feels a bit like you’re banging your head against a wall or wading chest deep through lumpy custard. In those times it’s good to take yourself out of your normal environment for a while to kick things up and freshen yourself up, and getting an external perspective can help enormously.
Look at who you’ve got in your network of colleagues, ex-colleagues, managers, employees, friends, associates, family, etc. and see what they think you’d be great at. Ask people what they can see you doing for a career, or ask them what they think you’d be great at. Getting that external perspective may just give you an idea or put a name to something you’ve been struggling to identify. You can also ask them what they think your strengths are, and even go as far as asking them to be honest about who they think you are and how they see you.
By the way, there’s a fantastic tool that I used some time ago to help get that external perspective and that I’d recommend you take a look at. It’s called 360°Reach and is the first and leading web-based personal assessment tool that helps you get the real story about how you are perceived by those around you. The results I got were worth their weight in gold and after being made redundant in 2001 it really helped me shape what I did next and how I did it (i.e. this!).
