Two Myths About MBAs Tested

Two Myths About MBAs TestedTwo Myths About MBAs TestedHere are two MBA myths One, people who go for their MBAs only want a job in finance, consulting, or whatever straight-laced corporate job we might call conventional and two, sweet gigs only go to MBAs from the elite schools.The clever thing that admissions consultant Paul Bodine did to test these myths was to go on LinkedIn and peruse the post-MBA careers of one respected but not exactly coveted business school Carnegie Mellons Tepper School of Business. He found that while many Tepper grads did indeed become consulting and finance-types, there were also a good absprache of Tepper MBAs with roles that would highlight any B-schools brochure. He has listed some of those less-conventional roles on his site.Paul Bodine

5 ways to rock your career, according to Netflixs Girlboss

5 ways to rock your career, according to Netflixs Girlboss5 ways to rock your career, according to Netflixs GirlbossNetflixs latest 13-episode series was inspired by Girlboss, Sophia Amorusos bestselling autobiography. Although Amorusos business efforts have tanked recently, the show focuses, optimistically, on the mechanics of her rise.The show tells the behind the scenes story of how Amoruso created Nasty Gal, a multimillion-dollar retail clothing brand. Theres a plucky heroine who is prone to speechifying, a literal rags-to-riches business venture, and ample coverage of many of the issues millennials can face in the sometimes confusing world of business and entrepreneurism. What there isnt though, is a lot of reality, since Nasty Gal, sorely badly managed in real life, ultimately filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy - something that isnt touched upon at all in the show. And well be direct the lead character is, to say the least, unsympathetic.But that doesnt mean it isnt fun to look at and that there isnt much to be learned. Know what your sh*ts worthThe series reminds us (in exactly those words) that sometimes the greatest skill you can have is understanding the value of an item. In the case of the show, a single jacket, bought dirt cheap and sold for hundreds, inspires the idea of an zugnglich store. In the case of job hunters, or anyone whos part of the gig economy, or even those in corporate jobs, the lesson is to know your own worth and the value of your work.The key Dont accept a job just because youre desperate and dont grab any opportunity simply because it comes your way. Research what your competitors charge and take a lesson from the Girlboss always price your own sh*t accordingly.Or, to put it abedrngnisher way, bill like a boy.Invest in your own knowledgeThe fictional Amoruso, played by Britt Robertson, seems to spielblttchen up business (if leid life) lessons as she goes and those words were something of a mantra. One lesson that can be translated f or the rest of us is the notion of carefulness never investing past your pain point, trying to keep a steady flow of return business, earning enough to create a comfortable profit margin. If you work in a cube, you can translate this to the notion of how much of yourself you invest into every single project. Think in terms of impact. Do you pour everything into a small report that no one will read? That wont yield you kudos or possible promotions. If youre searching for a job, that approach could mean anything from how much time you invest in your cover letter to how much you want to spend on career coaching, schmancy letterhead or business cards you print up. In the freelancing life, investing well could mean the difference between renting an actual office or simply a co-working space for meetings or networking. Try to think of your time and talent as investments and factor in what the rate of return is before investing too much too soon. Learn to handle negative feedbackIn the sho w and real life, the Girlboss in question received a veritable avalanche of negative feedback on everything from the quality of merchandise sold, to the way she conducted herself professionally. After a round of layoffs in 2014, Racked featured an in-depth article discussing the internal dissatisfaction of employees at Nasty Gal, in particular the reviews on GlassDoor, which were scathing. Out of 78 employee reviews, 11 claimed Management and upper management (except for a few) have no idea what theyre doing and are routinely dishonest. While were not entirely sure of the future of the show, or fictional Amoruso, the real deal Girlboss managed to segue from retailer to media company. After the flurry of negativity and subsequent bankruptcy filing, Amoruso regrouped and retooled her now ubiquitous branding as part of more of a social network or experience that according to the websiteToday, Girlboss enables women to connect across social, digital, and experiential platforms to discu ss and share knowledge about career, entrepreneurship, personal finance, relationships, and more. Well never be sure if the Nasty Girl brand could have survived the sheer volume of negative feedback and accusations of mismanagement, but Amoruso also apparently learned from the critical reviews she received and didnt try to reinvent what had failed. Like Madonna, Amoruso jumped on the reinvention train and salvaged the best possible pieces of her original brand and ideas. She also somehow managed to connect with Charlize Theron, whose name is connected with the production, which is another lesson in and of itself Even if you bomb-dot-com, try to find a reputable business person or celebrity to lend some sparkle to your next project. Hustlin aint easyTheres a dichotomy in the show and brand (and real life if were completely honest). Girlboss the series, seems a bit sugar-coated and embraces twee ideas of what success - especially in founding an online business- can or should mean. The heroine of the shows entrepreneurial spirit seems more akin to Kimmy Schmidts irrational optimism and professional navete, than someone like Victoria Beckham whos evolved from Posh Spice to mega-fashion mogul. At one point, TV Sophia leans out her window and shouts that the world should kiss her ass. While it makes for entertaining enough viewing, its a pretty awful attitude, professional or otherwise. In many ways, TV Sophia and her real life counterpart have both been accused of representing the downside of Millennials who allegedly embrace a gimme attitude without providing an appropriate payoff a reviewer from The Guardian called the heroine a walking selfie, and objects, its a show which fully mistakes being an overindulged horror-show for being an assertive millennial role model. While its fun to imagine that celluloid Girlboss succeeds on her pluckiness alone, its not something that could happen in the real world. The rest of us have to keep trying and failing until we final ly succeedand then lather, rinse, repeat until weve mastered our own version of being a Girlboss.

Statistics, Tips, and True Stories of Workplace Bullying

Statistics, Tips, and True Stories of Workplace BullyingStatistics, Tips, and True Stories of Workplace BullyingWorkplace bullying is a widespread problem thats beengaining momentum. In fact, studies show that nearly half of all U.S. workers are affected by workplace bullying. The Statistics- Who Are the Victims? CNBC conducted a poll in December 2017 and found that about 20 percent of those surveyed had experienced harassment in the workplace. Among those who had, 27 percent were women while only 10 percent were men. Approximately 19 percent were adults. Among those adults, just 16 percent were ages 18 to 34 while older Americans ages 50 to 64 represented 25 percent. This study welches focused on sexual harassment. National Public Radio reported on aelendherbei study by Stop Street Harassment just two months earlier in October 2017. It put the number of women who had experienced some gestalt of sexual harassment on the job at a disturbing 81 percent. Approximately 43 percent of men also reported experiencing such bullying. The Boston Globe nonetheless reported in December 2017 that overall, workplace bullying remains in the shadows- notlage that it doesnt exist but rather that it is still not receiving the attention it deserves. Also in 2017, the Workplace Bullying Institute found that 19 percent of Americans are bullied...and another 19 percent witness it 61 percent of Americans are aware of abusive conduct in the workplace 60.4 million Americans are affected by it 70 percent of perpetrators are men 60 percent of targets are women Hispanics are the most frequently bullied race 61 percent of bullies are bosses, the majority (63 percent) operate alone 40 percent of bullied targets are believed to suffer adverse health effects 29 percent of targets remain silent about their experiences 71 percent of employer reactions are harmful to targets 60 percent of coworker reactions are harmful to targets To stop it, 65 percent of targets lose their original jobs 77 percent of Americans support enacting a new law 46 percent report worsening of work relationships, post-Trump election The following stories illustrate the devastating effect of bullying and show how various bully victims have addressed workplace harassment. Bonnie Russell Triumphing Over a Workplace Bully After my supervisor at a privately owned legal advertising firm put his hands on me in anger and shoved me out of his office, I called the police. In front of the entire abverkauf crew, I began the conversation with, Id like to report an assault, then I supplied the details. The staff reacted quickly. Although the CEO was one building over, he arrived in two minutes. After talking to the bully, who admitted his actions, he asked me to step outside to talk. What are you doing to my company? he said angrily to me. This is not about your company, I said, matching his tone. Recognizing that I had the element of time and surprise on my side, it was my turn to be surprised when the CEO cut to the chase by asking me what it would take for me to cancel the call to the cops. I told him to fire the bully, and he did immediately. Angela Anderson Fired by a Bully I worked for the Law School Admission Council, the company that administers the LSAT. My boss never liked me, and why she hired me is still unclear. She bullied me extensively, yelling at me in front of my co-workers, threatening my job privately in her office, and discouraging alliances with co-workers. She treated people similarly in other departments, yelling at them in meetings. I tried to appease her until she threatened my job, at which point I constructed a letter to human resources. I gave her the courtesy of notifying her that I was going to HR, and she fired me before I had the chance to submit a complaint. Because of this, I have no legal recourse against her or the company and cannot claim retaliation. Natalie K. Camper, Ph.D., Founder and President, The Bully-Proof Company For Natalie C amper, bullying inspired a new business. The harassment occurred when I was 18 years old and very proud of my new job. There were several instances when I was approached by two different men. One was my boss who tried to corner me and touch me as I slid out from under his hands and went back to my seat. This happened several times, and I said and did nothing. I didnt know what to say or do. I stayed with the job all summer and just dealt with it as friends told me to do. Then there was the man whose business was a floor below. One day he came up to me at my desk and said, I just discovered a lump on my wifes breast. How about I examine yours? Once again, I said or did nothing. What was there to do? This was before anti-discrimination guidelines were published. When asked what sexual harassment was called before we had a name for it, Gloria Steinem said, You called it life. There were no laws to protect victims from workplace bullying. When I was bullied at 18,I just lived with it an d kept my head down. To my good fortune, a wonderful man who was rungs above me in terms of age and experience would magically appear and intervene on my behalf. He had some sort of instinct for when the big boss was cornering me and he would distract him. After 20 years as a consultant/trainer on sexual harassment and discrimination, I founded The Bully-Proof Company due to the terrible statistics and the stark reality that adult bullying victims have to deal with at work. Thirty-seven percent of U.S. employees say they have been bullied or have witnessed a bullying incident at work. That adds up to about 73 million people. What to Do If It Happens to You Many authorities on the subject of workplace bullying suggest taking most of the actions these women did. Remember, its not you, its the other guy. Stand up for yourself if possible. Your first step might be a frank discussion with the bully. Tell her that you dont appreciate her behavior. Ask her politely but firmly to stop. Of course, this isnt always possible when the bully is your boss or your supervisor. In this case, you might try to enlist the help of someone else reasonably high up in the hierarchy. If the bully is your co-worker, consider blowing the whistle and reporting the incidents to your supervisor or boss if confronting her directly doesnt stop. Name the bully. Go ahead and point a finger. Document each event. Note times, dates, and other details. If possible, get statements from witnesses in case your version of events is disputed...and it might be. If you have any vacation or sick time available to you, consider taking a step back for a few days to collect your thoughts away from work. Give yourself a little time to figure out what youre most comfortable doing about the situation. You might even want to talk the situation over with a therapist or counselor. Taking some time off can also give you a chance to explore other options. Unfortunately, sometimes the only way to make things righ t is to move on- if not to a new job, then at least to a new department where youre removed from the individual whos been bullying you. And, of course, call 911 immediatelyif youre in danger.

Its scary to step outside your comfort zone, but the world opens up when you do. Try saying yes to the things that scare you. You never know where it might leadEveryones got some greatness in them. You do. The girl over there does. That guy on the left has some. But in order to really mine it, you have to own it. You have to grab hold of it. You have to believe it. - Shonda RhimesWe often agree to do things that we dont want to do. It may be because we want to keep peace, or to make people like us, or even just because we feel obligated. Taking on things that youd rather not can leave you feeling resentful. Instead, just say no . Theres no need to make excuses. Remember, your life is your own and you have every right to decline.There are significant benefits to being grateful. It can improve the state of your physical and mental health, increase empathy and reduce aggression, and even help you sleep better . Grateful people are happier.If you want to be liked, show an interest in people. Successful people listen more than they talk, and theyre curi ous about other peoples experiences. Even the shyest people can communicate effectively if they remember to listen first.Successful people dont just talk about getting things done. Apple wouldnt be the success it is today if Steve Jobs had sat around dreaming about how cool personal computers might be instead of acting. If you want to accomplish something, take a step. Then take another. Keep going Youve got this.Take a look around your desk , office or living room. Its likely you see a thing or two that you dont love and dont need. Clearing the clutter can help you feel renewed and energized. Incidentally, the same goes for your writing. Learning how to tidy it up will make you a better, clearer communicator.Negative thoughts can keep you stuck. Successful people tend to be optimistic and capable of thinking positively.

(Instead of lamenting that their wallet was stolen, they might be grate ful that the thief didnt try to hurt them.) Theres even research to show that writing about intensely positive experiences daily helps lift your mood.Inspiration is fleeting, and successful people know it. Great writers, for instance, write regularly whether the muse pays them a visit or not. Successful writers, from King to Kafka, made writing both a priority and a habit .

3 Steps to Strategically Utilize Your Hiring Data - Spark Hire

3 Steps to Strategically Utilize Your Hiring Data - Spark HireData now informs every business decision hiring not excluded. In fact, LinkedIns 2018 Global Recruiting Trends report found 79 percent of recruiting and HR pros are at least somewhat likely to use hiring data in the next two years. However, 14 percent are unsure how to use it, 20 percent are unsure where to get it, and 42 percent believe their data is poor-quality.To help you properly collect and use hiring data throughout your process, we turned to the experts1. Determine your approach to hiring dataThe common debate is whether hiring professionals should take a mechanical or clinical judgment approach in combining data points to make a decision. The mechanical approach consists of the combination of data to develop a formal algorithmic, objective procedure (e.g., an equation) to reach a decision. This is typically the approach taken when you read about the use of big data or artificial intelligence in selection. The cli nical judgment approach typically relies on human judgment that is based on information contemplation and, sometimes, discussion with others in a group consensus meeting. A good example of this may be a recruiter looking at a resume, LinkedIn profile, or other digital data gathered in a Google search on a candidate or a hiring manager conducting an interview. The argument for the mechanical approach is there is less bias in the hiring process, and the objective nature of the process should result in better prediction of job performance (assuming the data plugged into the algorithm is a valid predictor of job performance for the targeted job). The clinical judgment approach is often used because recruiters and hiring managers in particular feel they can identify the best candidates based on their personal experience and expertise. Another way to put it is hiring managers dont need no stinking data. The research and my personal experience would suggest the clinical approach can be dra matically improved if individuals are trained on how to use the data. Jamie Winter, VP Consulting and Hiring Promotion Practice Leader at APTMetricsA clinical judgment approach to hiring data will improve decision-making. jamiewinter5Click To Tweet2. Identify KSAOs and map them to your hiring processStart by clearly defining what is important to be successful on the targeted job. Typically, this is determined by conducting a job analysis. The outcome of the job analysis typically is a list of knowledge, skills, abilities and other characteristics (KSAOs) for a given job or role. Note that sometimes organizations will use competencies as another term for KSAOs.Next, design your selection process. In other words, what are you going to measure, how are you going to measure it, and how will you combine the data you gather to make selection decisions? The design will be based on your parameters for the selection process (e.g., cost, people involved, timing, technology, etc.). You also w ant to consider which KSAOs you want to measure in your selection process and which ones on which you can train new hires. In the end, you want to create a process that measures your targeted KSAOs in the most valid, cost-effective, efficient, fair, and candidate-friendly process possible.Build a coverage grid that maps your process to the targeted KSAOs. This grid will tell you which selection tool/step in the process will measure which targeted KSAO/competency and the data gathered from each tool.Jamie WinterMap your hiring process to targeted KSAOs. jamiewinter5Click To Tweet3.
