  2. Most job-hunters who fail to master the job-hunt or find their dream job, fail not because they lack information about the job market, but because they lack information about themselves. -Richard Nelson Bolles

  3. Weekly Book Recommendation “The question isn’t whether you’ve been looking hard enough for the answer to difficult conversations, it’s whether you’ve been looking in the right places. At heart, the problem isn’t in your actions, it’s in your thinking. So long as you focus only on what to do differently in difficult conversations, you will fail to break new ground”. p. xx. Stone, D., Patton, B., & Heen, S. (1999). Difficult Conversations: How to discuss what matters most. New York: Penguin Group.

  4. WEEKLY BOOK RECOMMENDATION “When it comes to risky, controversial, and emotional conversations, skilled people find a way to get all relevant information (from themselves and others) out into the open. That’s it. At the core of every successful conversation lies the free flow of relevant information”. Dialogue- The free flow of meaning between two or more people Patterson, K., Grenny, J., McMillan, R., Switzler, A. (2002). Crucial Conversations: Tools for talking when the stakes are high. New York: McGraw-Hill.

Avoiding is a deliberate decision to take no action on a conflict or to stay out of a conflict situation. • Accommodating – you are concerned that the other party’s goals be met but relatively unconcerned with getting your own way. • Competing- style that is very assertive and uncooperative. You want to satisfy your own interests and are willing to do so at the other party’s expense. • Compromising-style that is intermediate in both assertiveness and cooperativeness, because each party must give up something to reach a solution to the conflict. • Collaborating-A win-win style that is high on both assertiveness and cooperativeness.
