True Confessions of a Business RomanticTrue Confessions of a Business RomanticTrue Confessions of a Business Romantic Blaszczyk, Managing Editor, Resource CenterAre you bold enough to be a business romantic? And no, were not referring to workplace CupidsAuthor Tim Leberecht, who coins the terms in his new book, The Business Romantic Give Everything, Quantify Nothing, and Create Something Greater Than Yourself (Harper Business, 2014), explains that business romantics are first and foremost humanists. Theyre bold enough to upend traditional business behavior and brave enough to bring heart and soul to their work.This intriguing model welches first inspired by Leberechts own popular 2012 TED Talk, 3 Ways to (Usefully) Lose Control of your Brand.In this interview, he explains his own personal epiphany that leuchtdiode him to become a business romantic and how it can benefit the workplace.Monster What exactly is the mindset of a Business Romantic?Leberecht Its a mindset that explores wit hout exploiting. A lifestyle and leadership style in business that maintains a sense of wonder, doubt, and vulnerability as the basis for the ability to appreciate and manage complex relationships and contradictions.Monster When did you know you were a business romantic?Leberecht It goes back to 2004 when I was serving as an advance press chief for the Athens Olympic Torch Relay. It was then that I experienced my own business romantic epiphany moment.As parte of our six-week trip around the world, the flame touched African soil for the first time in Olympic history. I remember being in Tahrir Square in Cairo and feeling a sense of awe when I saw the pride and joy of thousands of Egyptians around me. It was one of the most romantic moments of my life and the best job Ive ever had.I realized then that this intensity of emotion was exactly what I wanted to experience for the rest of my career. I then looked to business for a sense of adventure and meaning far beyond profit and producti vity.I wrote The Business Romantic because I believe we need more romance in our lives and that we can find it in and through business.Monster You advocate for being vulnerable and passionate at work and not always playing to win a zero-sum game. Is this a new gestalt for employers and their workers?Leberecht I hope so The Business Romantic aims to show that while romance is a world view and a lifestyle, it can also be a powerful framework for business.As professionals, we need to build romantic muscle and practice acts of romance. With the book I wanted to uncover the secrets of business romantics, and help those who arent romantics to recognize its value.Monster How did you test your theory?Leberecht As part of my research, I wanted to test the market demand for Business Romanticism. So I created and posted a fictitious sample job description. I received more than 100 applications in the first week My favorite one was I love this job description, but I will not apply because that would be utterly un-romanticI think we all want material gains and social security through our work, but we also all have an innate desire to connect with something greater than ourselves and to believe in something. The quest for meaning, beyond our individual pursuit of self-realization and happiness, is an incredibly strong driver.I view romance as a key factor of happiness and meaning it is the best way to describe a profound desire for the worlds beauty that cannot be captured in quantitative terms.Monster You also say that work is no longer defined as a place that we go to but rather define it by what we bring to the work. Can you explain?Leberecht This is actually a quote from researcher and writer Stowe Boyd who wrote an article about a start-up named Somewhere that I cite in my book. He said that work is increasingly a thing we do, not a place where we go.With nearly 50% of the global workforce projected to work remotely by 2020, and 75% of the workforce Millennials by 20 25, were witnessing a profound work revolution in increasingly fragmented talent markets, tomorrows knowledge workers will be digital nomads, interdisciplinary micropreneurs, personal brand-builders, and hybrid hackers.The construct of employment with a company is just one of many platforms for these type of workers. Their unique capital will be as much data-driven as it is cultural and romantic.Companies who appeal to their values and how they make them feel will become even more important in attracting and retaining them. Passion and purpose will play a bigger role in the konzept of careers, and permanent learning will no longer be a means to an end, it will be the end.

How to Be Professional About Expressing Disappointment

How to Be Professional About Expressing DisappointmentHow to Be Professional About Expressing DisappointmentFrom time to time, we all deal with disappointment at work. It just happens. A hiring manager can choose the wrong candidate to fill a vacancy,a project sponsor can suddenly pull support, and a colleague can stab you in the back. One of the hallmarks of a successful employee is the ability to handle these situations with professionalism. A potential pitfall in handling disappointment is appropriately expressing your feelings to those above you in the organizational hierarchy. To avoid a career-limiting mistake in this area, follow these tips on expressing disappointment to your boss. Make Sure You Understand Your Disappointment In any workplace, some things evoke strong emotions. Say someone else takes leistungspunkt for your work and gets away with it. No matter what line of work youre in, that is a highly offensive action and demands a timely response. If youre disappoint ed in the workplace, take a little time to understand what youre feeling and why youre feeling that way. Do you have all the facts? Do facts support your opinions? Going back to the example above, are you certain the other person took credit? How do you know that is what happened? What are the factors at play, possibly affecting the situation? Dont let your emotions get ahead of your facts. Understand what is going on and how it is affecting your attitude. Express Yourself Clearly Words are powerful. Precise language is important, and that importance is amplified when the conversation is a difficult one like when an employee needs to express disappointment to his or her supervisor. When you express disappointment, be careful about the words you choose. Avoid unintentionally blaming someone for something theydid bedrngnis do. For instance, do not blame your boss for doing something that is required by organizational policy. If your boss is required to document a performance probl em you agree formally is an issue, do not insinuate your boss is at fault for the issue being documented in your personnel file. The conversation should remain focused. Do not drift from one complaint to another without explicitly doing so. When the conversation drifts, little is resolved, and if there are remedies agreed upon, they may not address the right topics. Know What You Want Being disappointed boils down to your expectations, not being met. You thought one thing should have happened, but it did not, and something else did. When you go into the conversation with your boss about the disappointment, know what you want to get out of the conversation. Do you want to be heard and have this opinion factored into future decisions? Do you want some remedy for the harm youve experienced? Do you want a reversal of whatever decision led to your disappointment? Knowing what you want helps you frame and steer the conversation. It might sound manipulative, but it isnt if you do not i ntend to be manipulative. You probably have a set of logical points you want to outline sequentially to set up what you want to happen. Theres nothing wrong with outlining how you want the encounter to play out. Keep an Open Mind You may go into the conversation knowing exactly what you want to happen during and after the conversation but keep an open mind. By virtue of his or her organizational position, your boss may have insight into your issue you do not possess. The ideas you went into the conversation with may be rendered moot or ineffective by the new information your boss brings to the conversation. Be open to solutions, alternatives, and compromises. The ideas your boss brings to the table may be much better than yours. Be Prepared for the Consequences of Speaking Up In healthy organizations, people who express concerns respectfully are valued for challenging the position quo. They reduce the likelihood of groupthink and stagnation. In unhealthy organizations, peopl e who speak up are considered naysayers and barriers to progress. Know which type of organization yours is. If you work in an unhealthy organization, think carefully about whether the potential consequences of speaking up are worth whatever might be gained from the conversation. Some fights are not worth picking if you know you are going to lose. If you work in a healthy organization, follow the advice here. Your boss will genuinely try to understand your opinions and will seek the best resolution for everyone.

Cloud-Building

Cloud-BuildingCloud-BuildingWhen it comes to careers in the IT industry, jobs tend to specialize into five different categories Applications Servers Network Storage SecurityThere are very few individuals who can claim expertise in all five categories. There is simply too much to learn.A new type of IT career is emerging that is directly related to the phenomena of cloud computing the virtual data center (VDC) architect. A VDC architect has the skills to design data centers that support virtualized applications, placing them into cloud-like infrastructures.Designing a virtualized data center is dramatically different from designing a physical data center. It is a skill, however, that can be learned. It does leid require deep and in-depth knowledge of all five categories. It does require, however, strong inter-personal and collaboration skills with the experts in those areas.Many IT organizations do not have a VDC architect. These organizations can choose to either (a) promote one of t heir own, or (b) hire a new employee or consultant.EMC has created a training course and certification process for VDC architects that can serve homegrown IT specialists or hired consultants. The course instructs the trainee on fundamental VDC attributes (including an overview of all of the five categories mentioned above). In addition, the course lays the foundation for advancing to a higher level of certification (cloud architect).More information on the VDC architecture certification can be found here. I attended one of the earliest versions of the course, and for your reference Ive attached a video below that gives a high-level overview of the course.IT specialists should consider VDC certification as a solid career strategy that takes advantage of the cloud computing trend.Steve http//stevetodd.typepad.com Twitter SteveTodd EMC Intrapreneur

Give Us the Freedom to Walk, Bike or Drive

Give Us the Freedom to Walk, Bike or Drive Give Us the Freedom to Walk, Bike or Drive Give Us the Freedom to Walk, Bike or DriveTheres an old joke about people who drive a mile to the gym so they can walk two miles on a treadmill, but it is true that Americans typically dont travel from place to place on foot.Thats not an indictment of laziness. The choice of getting around any way other than by petroleum-powered automobile has been taken away from most Americans.Join ASME and Leading Industry Experts for Offshore Wind Turbine Webinar seriesHeres an anecdote from my own personal experience. While my architect wife was remodeling our home, we rented a house a few blocks from the local elementary school. We were so close that we could have enjoyed the daily ritual of walking together to the school. Unfortunately, walking was not an option. There wasnt a sidewalk along the busy road or a protected way to cross the streets safely. Sure, there was a crossing signal at the light, but no si dewalks on either side, so we would have had to walk in a ditch along a five-lane highway and stand in mud while waiting to cross.Instead we had to get in our car and drive those few blocks just for our own safety, consuming more energy and spewing more emissions along the way, only to wait in a long line of cars with other parents dropping off their kids, tailpipes close to kids noses pumping particulate matter into their lungs.This isnt a good way to live.Read ASMEs Top Story Five Job Interview Questions Young Engineers Can Expect Whos responsible for this mess?Electric vehicle charging station at Fashion Centre at fnfeck City, Arlington, Virginia. Image Mario Roberto Duran Ortiz / Wikimedia CommonsIts easy to blame urban planners. By omitting protected bike lanes, sidewalks, pedestrian-friendly crossings, mass transit, and density, their plans have essentially required us to use cars. But the dominance of one mode of transportationpetroleum-powered automobilesabove all others is also due to conscious decisions made by homebuilders.As Jace Deloney, a transportation expert based in Austin, Texas, noted via Twitter, modern houses are designed like car-dominant cities. New homes often make the garage more prominent than the front door.When homebuilders erect subdivisions remote from public transit, they have decided for us that we will drive cars, since there are no alternative ways of getting around.By not wiring or plumbing our garages for high-power charging or natural gas fueling, they have decided for us that we will drive gasoline or diesel-powered automobiles.Listen to the latest episode of ASME TechCast Breakthrough Could Bring New Cancer TreatmentIts easy to imagine the alternative. If every garage in every home was built pre-wired and pre-plumbed for home charging and fueling, consumers would have more options about the type of car and fuel they use. Buying an electric or natural gas-powered vehicle wouldnt require hiring a contractor on top of choosi ng a car.Ultimately, its crazy that home builders choose our transport for us. But that could be easy to fix with building codes and planning policies. Designing houses that accommodate different transportation modespre-wired and pre-plumbed for non-petroleum cars and maybe with a bike rack, toois an important complement to designing livable, walkable cities that dont prioritize cars.ur homes and buildings are the ultimate durable goods, lasting decades or centuries. And by one estimate, the world will need to add 2 billion homes over the next 80 years to account for population growth. Since new homes will be with us for a long time, building them with transportation and energy flexibility in mind will help us meet challenges we know about, such as climate change, and adapt to those that we havent yet imagined.More on Energy Policy from Michael Webber U.S. Can Learn From Texas Surge in Wind and Solar PowerTo get there, Americans will have to reframe their notions of independence. Th e idea that unknown faraway bureaucrats or hidden corporatists would make decisions for us gets our hackles up and underpins the modern political rivalry between parties who strive to protect us from the oppression of either big government or big business. Self-reliance and the freedom to chart our own course is a definitive aspect of United States culture.While the arrival of cars in post-WWII America typified freedom because they let us move to the suburbs and roam the country, we now have become trapped in car-dominated cities and homes. Its time we take the power back into our hands from homebuilders and city planners.We should demand more freedom, which means more options for movement.Michael Webber is the Josey Centennial prof of Energy Resources at the University of Texas in Austin and Chief Science and Technology Officer at ENGIE, a global energy company headquartered in Paris.

5 Mindsets to Overcome Job Search Rejection

5 Mindsets to Overcome Job Search Rejection5 Mindsets to Overcome Job Search RejectionIn the insightful Entrepreneur article, 7 Mindsets for Overcoming Business Heartbreak, psychologist Szu sichrie Campbell talks about how failure can actually be very beneficial to your overall career- and life- success. Weve reframed the story as it relates to job searching, and present to you five mindsets to overcome job search and career failure.Here are five mindsets to overcome job search rejection1. Accept rejection as a (necessary) part of life. Lets face it no matter how pretty a picture you paint of your life on social media, there are bound to be many, many moments where youve suffered a failure. Thing is, no one is above failure and its bound to happen at some point in your career. Maybe you got passed over for a position at a previous job that left you feeling bitter and angry- and caused you to quit your job in a huff.But theres beauty in failing, such as truly discovering who you are a nd how resilient you can be. Accepting failure means that you are open to growing and welcoming new opportunities into your life, like a job that is truly meant for you.2. Dont blame yourself. You botched a big job interview by calling your interviewee the wrong name- and sadly, it cost you the job. While you could beat yourself up about it (over and over again), doing so truly serves no purpose whatsoever. Things will happen and mistakes will be made, but it shouldnt cause you to go down the rabbit hole and start thinking that youre elend as qualified for the position as you thought. Learn from your mistakes, try notlage to repeat them, and move on.3. Dont overthink things. When you make a mistake, either in your job or during your job search, you might be tempted to go over every single solitary detail about what went wrong. And thats not only unproductive, its also unhealthy, particularly for your self-esteem.Sure, its a good idea to go over what caused the failure and what contr ibuted to it, but once youve figured out what you did wrong, its time to figure out what you did right, too. After all, if you only focus on the negative, you wont be able to see the positives, too.For example, maybe you had a job interview with a Fortune 500 company, something you thought youd never achieve in your career. So instead of blaming yourself for the failure, applaud yourself for landing an interview with a great company and know that if you were able to do it once, youll surely be able to do it again.4. Give yourself just enough time to recover. There are two mistakes that can be made when you make a mistake- dwelling too long on what went awry, or not spending enough time learning from it and moving yourself forward too quickly. If you do the former, you run the risk of never recovering from failure, or it taking much longer than it really needs to. And on the flip side, if you move too fast, then youre not going to really learn from your mistakes.As Campbell points ou t in her Entrepreneur piece, its in failure that we really learn who we are, shore up our resilience, and forge ahead in a positive and healthy manner. Without giving yourself enough time (or giving yourself too much time), the lessons that are meant to be learned wont be, and you might be bound to making the same gaffes again.5. Focus on what you can fix. Life has many, many twists and turns, and similarly, your career might look like its all over the map, too. So if youre feeling like you failed because you decided to undergo a career change, or you decided that you didntreally want the job you were applying for after several rounds of job interviews, you really shouldnt.Your career should grow and mature just as you do, and it doesnt have to look like everyone elses. So ditch the idea of perfection and opt instead to view failure as a chapter in your life, not the whole book. Once you have a more open view of what success is- and understand that you cant have success without havi ng experienced failure- youll come to view job search and career failures as a very necessary part of constructing a career that has meaning and makes you happy.When viewed in the right light, failure can actually be your friend. It can teach you things about yourself that you might not have ever learned otherwise, and will help you grow into who youre truly meant to be.Browse New Job Opportunities
