Why Professionals Should Practice Like Athletes and Actors
Why Professionals Should Practice Like Athletes and Actors Why Professionals Should Practice Like Athletes and Actors In the business world, things move fast. You write a business proposal, seek approval, and move on to your next project. Efficiency is key. Waste little time. Produce as much as possible. I recently had a wonderful opportunity to share my personal career story at a TEDx event in Worthington, Ohio. Giving a TEDx talk was a huge honor, but also a big responsibility. I wanted to be prepared â" and not the kind of prepared that Ive been in the past when Ive delivered a PowerPoint presentation whipped up for an executive meeting. But what does being prepared for something like TED mean? Fortunately, I had a great team of folks around me to serve as advisers, including a professional speaking coach, a professional speech writer, and a great TEDx team. I honestly couldnt have felt more proud to have such a great group working with me. What I quickly found was that preparing for a 15-minute memorized talk was an entirely different animal from preparing for an average business presentation. For the first time, I had a script. I didnt just write that script once â" I wrote and revised it 10 times. Each time, the team would have feedback. Perhaps one word didnt sound quite right, or maybe another sentence was needed to bridge two thoughts. Then came practicing. Memorizing eight pages of text is not easy. That was the first giant hill I had to conquer. Once the memorization was under control, I focused on my delivery. Even tiny details like the regional pronunciation of words were on the table for discussion. Ill be honest: At times, this level of commitment was trying. Then, one day, I bumped into a professional ballet dancer at the theater where I was practicing. He was there by himself, practicing his dance skills. You might think this was a sign that he had a big production just around the corner, but it wasnt. He was there practicing because he wanted to be his best at all times. He had discipline. In that moment, it really hit me how hard actors and athletes work when no one is watching. They are dedicated to be the best at one specific thing, for the 15 minutes when people are watching. Hours of tiring practice have gone into that perfect moment â" practice that nobody else sees. My TEDx experience made me wonder how much more effective and efficient we all might be as business leaders if we set aside a little more time to practice. Rather than planning to give a presentation once with no rehearsal, what if we took the time to hone our message? I hope to take my newfound respect for performers and athletes with me as I go back to my projects in the fast-paced business world.

New study debunks commonly held beliefs about exercise and mortality
New study debunks commonly held beliefs about exercise and mortality New study debunks commonly held beliefs about exercise and mortality We all know that itâs important to lead an active life. There are all kinds of benefits - from better thinking skills to improved overall health.But it can sometimes feel really overwhelming to fit a new fitness routine into your day, and overall, Americans arenât very good at exercise. Only 3% of us sit for less than four hours a day and exercise regularly, according to Time. And with so much of our time spent in offices, who can blame us?Thankfully, a new study in the American Journal of Epidemiology has broken ground on how we can improve our health in small ways, one step at a time. Researchers found that even light activity like walking for 30 minutes a day can lower mortality risk by 17%, which seems like something most of us could achieve.Study co-author Keith Diaz, an assistant professor at Columbia University Medical Center, told Time that âexercise doesnât have to be done for hours at a time. Itâs something that anyone can do. It just requires walking, even for short periods of time.âOf course, the results are better if you exercise more, or more vehemently. Diaz and his colleagues assessed how light intensity or moderate to vigorous physical activity differed in terms of their impact on mortality risk. When people did a moderate or vigorous workout for 30 minutes every day, they had a 35% lower mortality risk.But we all need a place to start. And for those who feel 30 minutes is too long, even smaller increments can make a difference.âWe used to think that exercise had to be done at a moderate or vigorous intensity. We used to think it had to be done in 10 minutes or more at a time,â Diaz told Time. âOur results kind of shift the narrative a bit. A one-minute burst here and a one-minute burst there actually can still be healthful.âSo instead of going for that 5K during your first workout in three months, maybe baby steps are a good way to start. Even they help. Then, you can build up to that hour-long, vigorous workout. But take heart in knowing that wherever you start, itâs better than the alternative of a sedentary lifestyle.

The Interview Process and Beyond
The Interview Process and Beyond The Interview Process and Beyond The Interview Process and Beyond Your preparation for the interview equips you with a number of interview questions that will help you get to know and evaluate candidates. But theres plenty more to do before, during and after the interview to ensure your success. Follow these tips: Before the Interview Put candidates at ease: Interviewing can be stressful, so do your best to help candidates relax. Make sure each candidate is greeted and escorted, if necessary, to the interview location. Start with low-key questions. Dont judge on first impressions: Weve all met them people who dont make a great first impression but end up being great employees. To make sure you dont overlook these diamonds in the rough, withhold judgment until youve had the chance to thoroughly evaluate a candidates capabilities and potential. During the Interview Tell the candidate a little about the job: While you dont want to dominate the interview time, you should start with a brief summary of the position, including the prime responsibilities, reporting structure, key challenges, and performance criteria. This will help the candidate provide relevant examples and responses. Dont be afraid to improvise: Plan your questions, but dont feel you must ask only those youve chosen in advance. Be responsive to what the candidate tells you, and build new questions off their answers, says Shelly Goldman, executive recruiter with The Goldman Group Advantage, an executive recruiting firm in Reston, Virginia. Listen: If you are doing most of the talking during theinterview process, you will not be able to obtain enough information to distinguish between candidates or to determine a candidates true competencies. A general guideline is to spend 80 percent of your time listening and only 20 percent talking. Take notes: While you wont want to transcribe everything the candidate says, do write down important points, key accomplishments, good examples, and other information that will help you remember and fairly evaluate each candidate. An interview guide, prepared in advance, will make note-taking easier and give you a structure for capturing key information. Invite candidates to ask questions during the interview process: This can be the most valuable part of the interview. Why do they want to be here is it the challenge of the job, advances in the industry, or something specific about your company? Or is the candidate fixated on salary, benefits, and time off? If the candidate has no questions this should be a red flag, especially for senior-level employees. Make a note of what the candidate asks, and be sure to follow up if you cant provide the answer immediately. Follow legal interviewing guidelines: It is critically important that every interviewer at your company, from HR clerks to top executives, understand and follow legal hiring guidelines. The easiest way to keep your interviews fully compliant is to ask only questions that relate to the job, eliminating the potential for bias by not introducing questions or scenarios that will elicit irrelevant information. After the Interview Let candidates know what they can expect: A pet peeve of many job seekers is that they are left hanging after an interview, or they are promised follow-up that never comes. If the candidate is a good fit, be clear about what the next steps will be. And if the candidate is not a good fit? Always end the interview on a positive note, but be genuine, says Goldman. Dont tell the candidate to call you if you dont mean it. Compare notes and reach consensus: The post-interview evaluation is the time to compare notes and advance the hiring decision. Each interviewer should be prepared to back up remarks and recommendations with specific examples and notes from the interview. Deepen the questions as you narrow the field: Subsequent interviews with finalists are valuable opportunities to learn more about them. Consider adding show me exercises such as a strategic planning exercise or a walk me through what youd do activity involving a real business challenge the individual would be facing. Create a Positive Image for Your Organization Joan Woodward, AVP and Senior Human Resources Business Partner at Fifth Third Bank, remarks that the job market is always competitive when looking for good people. We need to realize that were selling ourselves as much as candidates are trying to sell themselves. Its important to treat people well during the interview process. I never want to lose a potential customer or cause a candidate to have a negative impression of our company. Your interview process reflects the value your company places on each candidate and, by extension, each employee. Be a good ambassador for your company by conducting a professional interview, communicating honestly, and basing hiring decisions on an honest evaluation of each candidates capabilities.

The Invalidated Data Sharing Pact and Technical Recruiting
The Invalidated Data Sharing Pact and Technical Recruiting The Invalidated Data Sharing Pact and Technical Recruiting The Invalidated Data Sharing Pact and Technical Recruiting Rossheim Who in America cares that the European Court of Justice in early October invalidated a longstanding data sharing pactthat has enabled transatlantic data transmissions? Hiring managers at Apple, Google, Facebook and thousands of smaller U.S.-based companies should care, as the ruling may mean they need to hire more data scientists or fewer. As uncertain as the consequences may be right now, its critical for employers to monitor the fallout and adjust their IT recruitment strategy accordingly. The Safe Harbor Process The safe harbor process ruling says that existing U.S. data-privacy safeguards are insufficient. This could force American companies to cease, or to re-engineer at considerable cost, the international transmission of personal data ranging from email addresses to financial information to the consumer behavior. Small firms could be forced to curtail their European operations; mid-sized concerns could also be hard-hit. European Union countries have been even slower to recover from the 2008-2009 recession than the United States, and Europe is famished for jobs. The ECJ action could lay a protectionist cover over certain niches of the continents labor market, including data scientists. What it Means for IT Recruitment This ruling could also mean more jobs stay in Europe, says Russell Walker, clinical associate professor at the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University and consultant on big data and business strategy. Still, some of these IT jobs could go to Americans at least those who find a way to legally work in EU countries. Apple, Microsoft, and other companies may find that merging their data is impermissible under the ruling, so they have to build separate teams in Europe and the United States, which would create more jobs, Walker says. If companies do need to bring on more analytic talent to cope with the EU ruling, theyll encounter a steep technical recruiting challenge. Data honchos, especially chief data scientists, are hard to come by, and they need a very broad range of skills, from the technical to the executive. Whats unique about a data scientist is that theyre very likely part of a centralized, cross-functional team, because its about operations and product development, not just marketing, says Walker. Data scientists are expensive and uncommon in the labor marketplace. And you need a chief data scientist to decide what problems the team will work on. Technical Recruiting Strategies Companies seeking out data gurus as part of their IT recruiting will be disappointed if they settle for brainiacs who arent comfortable sitting down with a variety of functional leads. Data scientists task will be to relate what they learn from data to the business, says Walker. Its quite uncommon to find someone who can live both in the science and in the business. They need to communicate very well. Another major challenge for data-science recruiters is more fundamental: to understand enough about the concepts and vocabulary of big data and analytics to convince candidates of the companys commitment to this emergent discipline. To attract qualified IT professionals, companies need to be aware of tools and technologies that analytic talent uses, says Walker.

5 Tricks for Running Effective Meetings
5 Tricks for Running Effective Meetings 5 Tricks for Running Effective Meetings Make each minute count during your next business meeting by applying these simple rules.Weâve all heard the adage, âtime is money.â In todayâs workplace, every minute counts. Unfortunately for many professionals, too many of those minutes are spent sitting in long, drawn-out meetings where little is accomplished. In fact, in its annual Wasting Time at Work Survey,â Salary.com reported that 26 percent of respondents said the biggest overall time-wasting activity was having too many meetings and conference calls.Yet Patrick Lencioni, author of the best-seller â Death by Meeting,â believes that meetings arenât inherently bad. Lencioni argues that when meetings are given the proper context and purpose, they can become meaningful, engaging and relevant activities in the workplace.Below are a few tips to turn your most painful meetings into productive gatherings:Establish clear goals Itâs important that everyone invited to the meeting understands its purpose. Include a on e-sentence blurb in your invitation that clarifies what the meeting is about and what will be discussed so everyone is on the same page. When appropriate, create an agenda â" and stick to it. When you set clear expectations, itâs easier to keep the conversation on track and within the allotted time.Keep your attendee list leanTake a page from some of the most successful organizations and keep your meetings small. For instance, Larry Page implemented a 10-person limit to Googleâs meetings. Every person should contribute to the conversation; otherwise they shouldnât attend the meeting. Similarly, Amazonâs CEO Jeff Bezos uses a âtwo pizzaâ rule to ensure the right people attended his meetings. He believes that groups should be small enough that it only takes two pizzas to feed every person involved. Reassess your list of attendees before sending out your next meeting invitation.Stick to 30 minutes or lessGranted, not all meetings are created equally. Some, like a strategic planning session, will require more space on your calendar. However, when it comes to those frequent staff meetings and daily check-ins, your best bet is to limit the meetingâs length to 30 minutes or less (many reports suggest 15 minutes is the ideal meeting length). Research shows most peopleâs attention spans range between 10-18 minutes. Anything longer than that and your audience checks out of the conversation. In addition, these time restraints will force the attendees to organize their thoughts. If youâre having difficulty ending your meetings on time, try using a free online stopwatch like this one or opt for the device Google Venturesâ Jake Knapp relies upon, the Time Timer.Limit distractions from technologyIn quick, efficient business meetings, you shouldnât have time to check your phone for text messages or emails. Not only does this take away from the focus of the meeting, but itâs considered poor etiquette by many professionals. A study from the University o f Southern Californiaâs Marshall School of Business found that 75 percent of respondents believe itâs inappropriate to read texts or emails during formal meetings. Consider creating a policy where attendees silence their phones and stow them away during meetings.Assign responsibility for tasks and decisionsAt the end of the meeting, assign every action item to what Steve Jobs and Apple call a DRI or âDirectly Responsible Individual.â This simple concept makes accountability clear and directs people with questions to the right individual, ensuring each project runs more smoothly. This process is also a great way to recap the important takeaways from the meeting.In the end, productive meetings require some careful thought and planning. Once you determine the purpose behind your meetings, it will be easier to apply these rules and transform your bad meetings into productive and actionable conversations.

Tiny Gyroscope Aims to Improve Wearable, Nano Technology
Tiny Gyroscope Aims to Improve Wearable, Nano Technology Tiny Gyroscope Aims to Improve Wearable, Nano Technology Tiny Gyroscope Aims to Improve Wearable, Nano Technology A more stable, accurate and powerful gyroscope no larger than a grain of rice could soon make its way into wearable devices, nano platforms, and other applications. Gyroscopes enable vehicles, aircraft, robots, wearable, and other electronic devices to determine location in three-dimensional space. In most cases, the data is generated by microelectromechanical sensors (MEMS) that measure differences in the forces that act on oscillating masses moving in opposite directions. But those gyroscopes have several limitations, including their sensitivity to such factors as vibration and temperature. Listen to ASME TechCast: Shining a New Light on Solar Farms and Grids Top Story: The Critical Need for 5G Cellular Service To counter this, optical gyroscopes were developed and made with no moving parts. Most of them are smaller and more accurate than MEMS gyroscopes, making them good candidates for miniaturization and nanophotonic platforms. But even the smallest high-performance optical gyroscopes available today are too large for many portable applications. Another drawback is their signal-to-noise ratio, which is generally limited by thermal fluctuations, component drift, and fabrication mismatch. Due to those drawbacks and others, integrated nanophotonic optical gyroscopes have yet to be developed. That could change. Schematic of nanophotonic optical gyroscope. Image: Ali Hajimiri / Caltech Researchers at the California Institute of Technology have taken a big step toward making those tiny gyroscopes a reality. Led byelectrical and medical engineering professor Ali Hajimiri, the team developed a proof-of-concept optical gyroscope that is 500 times smaller than current state-of-the-art devices, or about the size of a grain of rice. It is also vastly superior in precision, being able to detect phase shifts that are 30 times smaller than what current systems can detect, enhancing its performance by one to two orders of magnitude. Optical gyroscopes measure the rate of rotation by detecting differences in two paths of lighta phenomenon known as the Sagnac effect. A beam of light is split into twin beams which travel in opposite directions along a circular pathway and meet at the same light detector. Because light travels at a constant speed, rotation causes one of the beams to arrive at the detector before the other. This phase shift is then used to calculate orientation. Hajimiris all-integrated, nanophotonic optical gyroscope achieves its improvements through reciprocal sensitivity enhancement. In this technique, reciprocal means that both beams of light are affected the same way. In Hajimiris gyroscope, light moves through miniaturized optical waveguides, which are small conduits about 200 nanometers tall, or about three times the width of a human hair - that carry light, acting in the same way as wires that carry electricity. Imperfections in the optical path that could affect the light beams - such as thermal fluctuations, light scattering, and other interference affect both beams in the same way. Our proof-of-concept device is capable of detecting phase shifts 30 times smaller than state of-the-art miniature fiber-optic gyroscopes, despite being 500 times smaller in size. Ali Hajimiri, California Institute of Technology Hajimiris team found a way to extract reciprocal noise while leaving signals from the Sagnac effect in place. That enhances the gyroscopes reciprocal sensitivity, which improves the signal-to-noise ratio. Those improvements enable the integration of the gyroscope onto such a small chip. The lab built the system using silicon nanophotonics, which is an ideal platform for implementing optical gyroscopes on the microscale due to its reliability and compatibility with current mass production techniques, Hajimiri said. It also provides the capability of integrating nanophotonic and electrical components onto a single substrate, which helps with commercialization and controlling costs. The optical gyroscope has no moving parts, making it an extremely robust system. System dimensions are 2 by 1 by 2 millimeters. The build process deploys lithography to stack and pattern several ultra-thin layers of silicon and silicon-dioxide. The only thing that moves inside the gyroscope are photons that travel at the speed of light in a pair of very small loops hundreds of billions of times every second, Hajimiri said. Extremely small changes in path length due to rotation can be measured. The greatest challenge in designing the system was accurate detection of variations in the optical path due to rotation, while minimizing sensitivity to thermal fluctuations and drifts. We did this by employing a technique we refer to as reciprocal sensitivity enhancement, where the light travels in two opposite orientations [clockwise and counterclockwise] in two loops for half of the cycle, and then travels in the opposite direction for the other half, Hajimiri said. This way the effect of non-idealities in the system can be cancelled, while the signal is amplified. Tests show theproof-of-concept device is capable of detecting phase shifts 30 times smaller than state of-the-art miniature fiber-optic gyroscopes, despite being 500 times smaller in size. Thus, our approach is capable of enhancing the performance of optical gyroscopes by one to two orders of magnitude, Hajimiri said. The team is already working to develop the next-generation of its current prototype. The level of interest we have received so far is very high, Hajimiri said. Many parties have shown interest in working with us toward further development of this technology. Mark Crawford is an independent writer.

When it Comes to Job Listings, Location Matters
When it Comes to Job Listings, Location Matters When it Comes to Job Listings, Location Matters When companies sell their product, they promote their product where their target customer will most likely see it. For example, advertisements for toys are usually found on childrenâs TV networks like Nickelodeon, not The History Channel. The same concept applies to promoting your job listing. Your ideal candidate for the position has a certain place where they actively seek jobs, and you should be where they are. Job Fairs A job affair is the ultimate place to meet job seekers in person. Just make sure youâre attending the right one. If you have mostly mid-level or senior roles that youâre trying to fill, it wouldnât make sense to go to a career fair at a college or university. Networking events are also great places to meet active job seekers. A lot of people are trying to expand their networks to find jobs, so you will meet people looking for jobs at industry networking events. Professional Group Sites Professional groups that usually hold networking events allow companies to post job listings on their site. The American Marketing Association has a job board that features jobs for all types of levels and functions in marketing. Another example is SHRMâs job page, which lists jobs from all across the country and career stages. Both professional groups have a âfeatured jobâ section that calls out a handful of jobs in a prominent place on the page. If youâre thinking of advertising your job listing on a professional group site, it would be in your best interest to pay extra to be featured because most people donât go past the second page when looking at search results. General Career Sites The best place to advertise your job listing, and the place that will get you the most eyes, are job search sites like SimplyHired.com. Job seekers are able to customize their search by keywords, so making sure your job listing has the keywords that will match the words a potential candidate might search is important. Like professional group sites, if you want your job listing to get the most views and clicks, you should definitely consider making it a featured or sponsored job. Some 72 percent of job seekers donât go beyond the first page of the search results, and featured jobs get eight times more clicks than organic jobs. Besides being at the top of the page, job seekers are more likely to click a featured job because it shows that the company is actively looking, and theyâre less likely to apply to a job post that wonât send them a response to their job inquiry. The hardest part is figuring out where your ideal potential candidate would look for a job. If youâre posting your job on a website, itâs important to remember how much more traffic featured or sponsored jobs get versus jobs in organic search. The worst thing that can happen is an awesome candidate missing your job listing because itâs on the second page of a search.

Whatever They Told You About How to Build a Resume Is Dead Wrong...And Heres Why
Whatever They Told You About How to Build a Resume Is Dead Wrong...And Here's Why What How to Build a Resume Is - and What it Is Not Your profile needs to be written in third person in the present tense. Having to return and forth between pages to learn about your private information will supply a lousy experience to the visitors. You should have the ability to communicate all you want to say on a single page. Make certain to keep it short and include only basic specifics. The Basic Facts of How to Build a Resume In case you have any significant employment gaps, you may choose to supply a succinct explanation. Leaving off employment dates is huge red flag which makes employers wonder if you are working to hide something. If your resume doesn't have the ideal keywords and phrases, then you aren't going to have the ability to find the opportunity to interview. On top of that, following just a few easy ideas may minimize the possibility that you will overthink this, and boost the likelihood that the proper headhunters for your job search will view it. The Benefits of How to Build a Resume The very last thing you would like is for your resume to let you down when you're actually the best suited pick for the job. Even if your work experience is ideal, a subpar resume could sink your odds of getting a work interview. You have skills and can execute all job duties in the easiest way possible. Even in the event that you've been in the exact same job for a couple decades, you still need to update your resume annually to reflect your new skills. For example, the word Manager isn't sufficient to describe your job because it's necessary to explain executive or sales manager. You must update your resume after reading the work description based on the prerequisites of the job. You are able to even leave off a whole job if it isn't pertinent to your present-day job search. The resume format must be followed as the jobs have to get listed by the latest job and the next and so on. With just a couple of clicks of a mouse the recruiters can receive the very best fit candidates out of hundred of resumes. Be sure to reflect the work description when you describe your own regions of proficiency. Resume ought to be made simpler as it will save yourself the exact time of the employer. A resume format should grab the interest of the employer and it ought to be organized. Who Else Wants to Learn About How to Build a Resume? When it's crucial, it's your duty to be sure that the recruiter sees it. It's very improbable that you'll be hired directly from your resume, so in order to earn an interview possible, you should demonstrate you have the skills the employer is seeking. Every recruiter isn't same and you will need to tailor your content to fit your recruiter. Unless you're applying for an extremely specialised job or you're applying to a company where no one would like to work, the recruiter will have lots of resumes to select from.
