The New Year Promotion Plan

The New Year Promotion PlanThe New Year Promotion PlanPosition yourself foraversetzung by followingthese foursimple strategies.Unfortunately, as the days get shorter and holiday madness sets in, its easy to letyourbright-eyed and bushy-tailed attitude toward workfade away. But theres one sure-fire way to keep yourself on-track and focused onyour career duringthe holidays Startplanning for a aufsteigen in the New Year.Dress the partYou may have heard that you should dress for the job you want, not the job you have, and this is particularly important once youve set your promotion plan in motion. While youre probably dressing appropriately for your current role, the position you want might require you to make some adjustments.Ifyour office has a policy of dressing down on Fridays, and this is something you and your co-workers look forward to, take a look at what management is doing. If your superiors dont dress down on Fridays, you should probablyabandon casual Friday, too. The visual a ssurance that youvepicked up on, and are willing to adhere to, will go a long way toward management feeling confident youre ready to become a part of their team.Speak upA pivotalway to impress your superiors is by exhibiting ease in multiple situations. One of the quickest ways to showcasethis ease is by speaking up at every opportunity, from your weekly staff get together to meetings with key management personnel.Ifyou find yourself on the elevator with your CEO a few mornings a week, its a great opportunity to get your feet wet in speaking up. Rather than simply standing face-forwardstaring atthe control panel, you should take the opportunitygreet him or her. Im not asking you to be effusive- a simple good morning, coupled with a smile, is often enough to start getting noticed.Initiate appropriate actionI have a client who is a trainee stockbroker at one of Manhattans larger firms, as well as a former Marine. One day he was in the mens room, which was littered with paper towels. H e began picking them up. At that moment, one of the directors came in and asked him what he was doing. He said he was picking up paper towels. The director asked why. He said because they were on the floor. The director pointed out that this wasnt his job. My client agreed, but explained what the Marine Corps had inleiseed in him In the absence of orders, initiate appropriate action.Suffice to say this seemingly insignificant display of manahme did a lot to enhance his reputation with those occupying corner offices. Similarly, a show of initiative on your part in ways both large and seemingly small- is a great way to move up in the ranks.Lead a teamFew jobs these days are about working in isolation. Thats why your people skills are just as importantas any technical skills you might have. Use those skills to demonstrateyou have the ability to lead and motivate your co-workers and your superiors will see you asready to be one of them. I strongly recommend volunteering to head a team project. Or better yet, initiate one of your own.Just be awarethat your work as a leader will be silently evaluated just as much as the impact your work might have on the bottom line.With these four strategiesimplemented, youll be in great shape to ask for a promotion by the New Year.Gofor itFor many of us, the idea of asking outright for what we want or deserve is foreign. But asking for what you want is a must. Not doing so means youll be disgruntled, and no one wants an employee with a chip on his shoulder. There are a few first steps to asking for your promotionMake an explicit appointment to discuss your requestProvide concrete examples of how you have contributed to your companys successHave a specific salary figure and/or title in mindAlsokeep in mindtheres a chance you might not get what you want. And no is typically just information not a reflection on your value to the business. In fact, its more likely a reflection on the history of the position, or the current balance s heet of the company.Why is this important? Because making requests with this in mind will help you remain relaxed throughout the conversation. And when youre at ease, its easier to roll with the punches. Youll convey confidence and humor, essential elements in the negotiation process. And when the balance sheet does look more favorable, your request may still be top of mind.

Millennials arent just an exotic breed of selfish narcissists after all

Millennials arent just an exotic breed of selfish narcissists after allMillennials arent just an exotic breed of selfish narcissists after allMillennials are a maligned, misunderstood part of the workforce - which is a problem, because theyre also the biggest part of it.According to a new survey that Ladders did in partnership with SurveyMonkey, millennials do stand out from other generations They behave differently, embracing texting at work, and they are far poorer. In fact, millennials were twice as likely to be makingunder $15,000 than any other demographic - an especially harsh reality considering that many millennials are carrying the burden of student loans.That said, millennials want exactly what other generations want flexibility at work and better work-life balance. They just approach it differently.To get a handle on howthis important generation binnensees work, Ladders partnered with SurveyMonkey to study how millennials compare to other generations when it comes to wor k and career. This March and April, we surveyed 4,711 adults that were selected to reflect the demographics of the United States. That number included more than1,000 millennials, ages 18-34. We asked them about what work means to them.What we found isthat millennials arent an exotic breed of selfish narcissists. They share many core beliefs withthe generations that came before them. But in our digital era, they just have different motivations for holding them.Millennials are practical about making moneyOverall, each surveyed demographic shared common values about what work is - and isleid.Across generations, 67% of all the workers we surveyed said the mission of an organization mattered more to them than how much that organization could pay them.But baby boomers were significantly more likely to say they believedin mission over money, suggesting that millennials are not as blindly idealistic as we are led to believe. Seventy-two percent of baby boomers said they cared more about mis sion than money, as opposed to 65% of millennials who said the same.Why is that? Well, millennials may need to be more pragmatic about money because they are the poorest demographic we surveyed. Millennials were twice as likely to be makingunder $15,000 than any other demographic.The low pay for millennials could also be because many are just starting out their careers or working several gigs at a time, none of which add up to a lot of pay. Thats why studies show millennials frequently living with their parents to save money, or sharing expenses with several roommates.Millennials dont mix their work lives and their social media livesAs work and play merge in our increasingly connected workplaces, millennials are careful about managingrelationships in and outside of work Themajority of those surveyed had never been fired due to social media (97%), would not be friends with the manager on Facebook (81%), and hadnot pursued a romantic relationship with their co-worker (77%).Flexible ho urs are the top perk for allFrom the Silent Generation to Generation X and millennials, every single generation in our study prioritized flexible hours as the top perk they sought when seeking a job.When asked to pick between a game room, a gym membership discount, a nap area, unlimited snacks, free meals, casual Fridays, flexible hours, and the option to work remotely, 39% of millennials said flexible hours was the fruchtwein important perk with the ability to work from home a close second at 25%.Of course, this goes against the conventional human resources wisdom that said if you built a ping pong table, the millennials would come.Foosball tables, free pizza, all thatkind of stuff, its just window dressing, its not whats going to make a millennial stay at your organization. And while youmay get their attention, where youre going to keep them is in work-life blending. Can they access their personal life duringwork? And they dont mind accessing work during their personal lives but y ou have to be understanding of that, integrierter schaltkreis Espinoza, professor and author of Millennials Who Manage and Managing the Millennials told Ladders.Espinoza links the desire for flexible hours to the millennialdesire tobea whole person in the office and at home - that is, having full, rich lives rather than putting work always first.Technology is on the side of millennials The flexibility they need is increasingly possible with technologies that allow us to access our personal and professional lives at the touch of a button through Slack messages, Google Hangouts, group chats, and phone calls.ButEspinoza thinks too many offices are operating under outdated modelsWe still have the 8-5 mentality punch the clock, be in your office, be in the building, if I dont see you, youre not working. When in reality, technology has allowed the millennial generation to be accessible to work, and really, to have a personal life 24/7. And thats where organizations have to adapt to them. Wanting flexible hours doesnt make you lazyRecent college graduate Chris Garcia, 22, acknowledges that asking your employer for flexible hours can bea touchy subject because it sounds like were just lazy and dont want to work hard.But for him and all of his friends in his age group, flexible hours arethe way for them to work harder, so they can achieve their dreams.Were all balancing several jobs. My boyfriend is seeking a job with flexible hours because every few weeks, he flies down to Miami to work for Royal Caribbeans Broadway show productions. My best friend works in finance, but works from home on Fridays to help with a karate studios rebranding.Like every generation, millennials are ready and available to do the work. They just dont believe in the rigidity of a 9-5 scheduled to get that work done. Our guess while theres a preference among previous generations for making ones way with a single salary, theres a high tolerance among millennials for side hustles, or passion proje cts that also earn a little cash on the side.One example Mary E. Lemmer, 28, runs a small improv agency and owns a gelato business. For her, flexibility gives her the convenience to dopersonal errands when the need arises, such as grocery shopping during off-peak times so I dont have to wait in line as long or being able to meet a plumber in the morning to fix a clogged drain.She believes that as long as Im getting my work done it shouldnt matter when I work.That was a beliefshared by all of the millennials Ladders contacted.As 25-year-old Matthew DesLauriers, an Atlanta-based digital content manager, put it, you hired me to do a job. Let me do that jobI dont believe companies need to waste time telling their employees how to do their jobs.Millennials are thefruchtwein connected generationOne area that millennials reallydo differ from other generations is in their desire to be as connected as possible. This is a generation that grew up with advanced technology, and they dont let it go - even at work, which can startle older colleagues.For instance, millennials were twice as likely as baby boomers to think its acceptable to text and use social media at work. Forty-three percentof millennials saidit wasreasonable to expect someone to answer work-related emails outside of business hours as opposed to 39% of the overall population.And amongst millennials, 53% of the younger lot, those aged 18-24, were fine with emails after hours while only 35% of older millennials agreed. Why the divide within the generation? It may be because we found that oldermillennials are more likely to be in full-time jobs than younger millennials and want to have some time away from the clock.Some millennials believe staying online is the fair tradeoff you make for prioritizing flexible hours.As Lemmer explained, because I value flexible work hours and working remotely, I am fine with responding to emails outside of business hours. I do think that if something is urgent outside of busine ss hours, the person sending the email should consider calling or at least making note in the email that its urgent.She advises that aslong as you communicate expectations with your employer oremployee, it shouldnt be a problem. Creating boundaries iskey for keeping employees happy.DesLauriers admits that although he will sometimes send emails outside of business hours, Id never expect a response outside of business hours. To do their best work, people need time to rest and recharge and I respect that.When it comes to social media usage, gender played a role. Millennial men were more likely to say it wasappropriate to answer the bosss request after business hours than millennial women were - a big difference of 47% compared to 38%.Of the relatively small 17% of the entire working population in the study who were willing to friend their manager on Facebook, the biggest group of those willing to take the risk were millennial women, at 24%.Millennials are ambitious and expect fast pro motionsOne more way millennials differed from older generations in the Ladders/SurveyMonkey pollwas in their drive for career growth.When it came to accepting a job offer, more millennials - 36% - prioritized career growth over what their starting salary would be compared to theoverall population at 31%.In short, millennials - thinking practically in terms of raises and promotions - want those opportunities to be future leaders, and they want them now. A whopping 80% of millennials said they wanted a promotion within the first two years at a job.Millennials are achievement-oriented, Espinoza explained, perhaps confirming one stereotype of the generation as somewhat dominated by perfectionists. Millennials want to achieve in every part of their life, when they become parents, as professionals, as friends.He said that millennialscan feel like theirorganization is holding them back from winning at lifebecause when you have an organization thats managing your focus, theres that sens e of loss of control.But even as someone who studies millennials specifically, Espinoza cautions us against exoticizing them People look for behavior that they think theyre going to see in millennials and thats all they see - even though other generations do similar things. And it creates this enforced stereotype The one thing I tell millennials is just dont get hooked by that, dont get sidetracked by it.Thats not just good advice for millennials, its also good advice for everyone who works with them. Look beyond the labels and you just might find some common bonds.* * *KEY FINDINGS FROM THE LADDERS/SURVEYMONKEY MILLENNIAL WORKFORCE POLLThese are among the key findings of the Ladders/SurveyMonkey poll of the millennial workforceMission matters - though less to millennialsThe mission of an organization matters to more people than cash - and this is true across generations, including millennials. Women are more likely to choose mission over money as opposed to their male colleagues (73 vs. 61%).Millennials expect rapid promotionNot surprisingly, a jobs wage or salary is the most important thing people think about when accepting a job offer (31%). But for millennials career growth is No. 1, and they arent willing to wait too long for it Opportunities for career growth is the most important factor (36%) and 80% say they want a promotion within the first two years at a job.Food is the way to the young workers heartWhat perks will make a person excited about an organization? Topping the list across the board are 1) flexible hours, and 2) a teleworking/work-from-home option. Also If you want to get millennials in the door, feed them. Other than those top two perks, 12% of millennials say free meals are the thing they would be most excited for in a job offer.Millennials make themselves at home atworkMore than a third of adults say that staying in touch with ones personal life while at work is not so taboo anymore, a number which rises to 48% among male millennials. The top three activities they see as appropriate at work are texting (36%), personal phone calls (29%), and using social media (19%). Roughly twice as many millennials see texting and social media at work as acceptable, compared to baby boomers.And they take their work homeMore so than other age groups, millennials say it is reasonable to expect someone to answer work-related emails outside of business hours (43% vs. 39% overall). Millennial men are more likely to say it is appropriate - 47%, compared to 38% of millennial women.Theyre friends with the bossOnly 17% of people with jobs are friends with their managers on Facebook, but the group doing the most friending is millennial women 24% of them are friends with their managers. Perhaps overall friending is low among millennials at work on account of the fact that44% say theyd turn to social media to find their next job opportunity.Theyre pet friendly, if not people friendlyMore than one-fifth of employed people admit to having h ad a romantic relationship with a coworker at some point in their career millennials, however, are the least likely to have done so, at only 18% (vs. 24% for Gen Xers and boomers). When it comes to their furrier friends, millennials and Gen Xers are the most open to the idea of all pets being allowed at work, with 22% and 21% on board with this concept, respectively.- Methodology This Ladders/SurveyMonkey online pollwas conducted March 28- April 2, 2017 among a national sample of 4,711 adults ages 18 and up, including 1,024 Millennials between the ages of 18 and 34. Respondents for this survey were selected from the nearly 3 million people who take surveys on the SurveyMonkey platform each day. Data have been weighted for age, race, sex, education, and geography using the Census Bureaus American Community Survey to reflect the demographic composition of the United States. The modeled error estimate for this survey is plus or minus 2 percentage points.

The single biggest thing you can do for your career

The single biggest thing you can do for your careerThe single biggest thing you can do for your careerWhen you see an amazing design, an awesome product, a great work of art, listen to a moving piece of music, or hear about an amazing person who has achieved greatness in any field, dont assume that the creation or success came about randomly or easily.It took commitment and consistency.By showing up, you stop waiting passively for inspiration and do your best work every day.You turn the act of doing your best work into a daily wissen.A lot of people are afraid to make a commitment to show up.What if something really important comes up?What if Im leid motivated enough?What if I have nothing to say, share or do?If you want is do something worth paying attention to, create something that means to you, or become the best version of yourself, you have make the commit to a higher purpose.What is it that you want in life?Identify it and build the fruchtwein important routine of your life to help you achieve it.Moving from 0 to 100 percent requires consistent habit.Showing up every day will set you up for long-term success.It will make you the money you need whilst you pursue an incredible life.It will build an audience who care about what you do, or write.It will solve most of your life and business problems.It will develop the tenacity/resilience you need need to thrive.Seth Godin explains, Some people show up when they need something. Some people show up before they need something, knowing that it will pay off later, when they need something. And some people merely show up. Not needing anything, not in anticipation of needing something, but merely because they can.Showing up every single day of your life is critical to success in every field of endeavor.Champions, legends, and icons show up every day, whether that occurs on the field, in a studio, on the court, or in the boardroom.Showing up can help you be one of them.Showing up every day, providing value, and show ing your work is one of the best ways to build a lasting career.Quantity also breeds confidence.After a few years of showing up every day to do the work, youll have invaluable experience and a great portfolio to share.Youll have a better story to tell about your work.Theres no substitute for showing up every dayDont ever, ever, believe anyone who tells you that you can just get by, by doing the easiest thing possible. Because theres always somebody behind you who really wants to do what youre doing. And theyre going to work harder than you if youre not working hard. - Maria BartiromoGreatness isnt handed to anyone it requires a lot of hard work. The best people in any field are those who devote the most hours to their crafts every day.In his book, Shoe Dog A Memoir by the Creator of NIKE Phil Knight, said this about working hard to achieve your dreamSo that morning in 1962 I told myself Let everyone else call your idea crazy just keep going. Dont stop. Dont even think about stoppin g until you get there, and dont give much thought to where there is. Whatever comes, just dont stop.Winston Churchill, one of the 20th centurys greatest orators, practiced his speeches compulsively.Vladimir Horowitz supposedly said, If I dont practice for a day, I know it. If I dont practice for two days, my wife knows it.Michael Jordan practiced intensely beyond the already punishing team practices.The all-time-great football receiver Jerry Rice - passed up by 15 teams because they considered him too slow - practiced so hard that other players would get sick trying to keep up.Bill Gates saw the dawn of the PC and made a commitment put a computer on every desk.John D. Rockefeller, too, saw ahead when the world-changing new industry was oil, took advantage, and committed to making the most of it.Showing up every day is challenging, painful and uncomfortable.But its the only way to the top.In fact, a major key to success is to learn to enjoy challenging work and to enjoy working har d at it.For most people, work is hard enough without pushing even harder.Those extra steps are so difficult and painful they almost never get done.The good thing about working hard at your craft is that, its universal.It doesnt matter what industry youre in - hard work can be used to achieve positive long-term results regardless of the specifics.In the words of G. K. Nielson Successful people are not gifted they just work hard, then succeed on purpose.Work hard, and you will earn good rewards. Work smart, and you will earn great rewards. Work hard and work smart, and you will earn extraordinary rewards, says Matshona Dhliwayo.You have probably heard this phrase a hundred times, you have to work smart not hard to succeed.Being smart is about making the right choices.Smart people move up the ladder real fast. But they also value the importance of showing up every day and getting real work done.Your idols, heroes made important and calculated choices every day before they reaped the r ewards of success.As they reached the pinnacle of success, they grew more experienced, made less mistakes, improved their decision-making skills and made the most of selected opportunities.And this resulted in something that saved them a lot of time, effort and energy. You can only give anything your best shot and work hard towards your goals.Dont see failure as an obstacle but be smart enough to learn from them. Jonah Engler once said, There are no shortcuts to success - hard work is smart work.Showing up even when you are not in the mood is the how to achieve greatnessDont wait for opportunities, create them.When you learn to embrace hard work instead of running from it, you gain the ability to execute on your big goals, no matter what it takes to achieve them.You blast through obstacles that stop others who have less resolve.But what is it that gets you to this point?What gets you to embrace hard work? A truly successful man will keep trying and keep struggling until he perfects his art.Thomas Edison failed approximately 10,000 times while he was working on the light bulb and yet he never dreamed of giving up - this is the hard work and the determination that marks a true success.Picasso was exceptionally prolific throughout his long lifetime. The total number of artworks he produced has been estimated at 50,000, comprising 1,885 paintings 1,228 sculptures 2,880 ceramics, roughly 12,000 drawings, many thousands of prints, and numerous tapestries and rugs.And there are about 870 paintings by Vincent van Gogh existing today. His earliest date from 1881 and the latest from July, 1890.The greater your capacity for long-term commitment, the more rewards fall within your grasp.If youve chosen a significant purpose for your life, its going to require hard work to get there - any meaningful purpose will require hard work.If you are willing to show up every day, you will make incremental progressThe three great essentials to achieve anything worthwhile are, first , hard work second, stick-to-itiveness third, common sense. - Thomas EdisonThe power of progress is fundamental to philanthropisch nature.Most people completely neglect progress because theyre so focused on achievement. If you need to write, the main thing you need to do is just to sit down in front of your text editor and write.It doesnt even have to be a full page. Half a page or even less. Call that a success. What matters is that you make time to write, every day.Value progress, no matter how small.By showing up and working, you will make progress, every day.If getting to the top was easy, it wouldnt be rare.Get over the initial hurdle by making that hurdle as low as possible, and then keep clearing really easy hurdles until youre an unstoppable force of nature. Thats one way to approach putting in the hours to work on your lifes work.The importance of being consistent is a timeless truth.Rather than fight it, run with it and you will never be disappointed.Your life will reach a whole new level when you stop avoiding and fearing committing time and effort into your craft and simply surrender to it.Greatness and extraordinary success isnt reserved for a preordained few.It is available to you and to everyone. If you are willing to put in the work, your efforts will pay off.Embrace and appreciate the processYou can easily attribute insane success to sheer luck.But make not mistake, every incredible person who has walked the earth had a story to tell. And in each case, you will find love of work, grit and insane focus on one thing they cared about.The ability to show up every day even when you are not motivated to learn, create, make something is the most valuable trait you need to be a professional.It doesnt come easy but its a requirement to survive the process of creating something unique and remarkable.I can only become a better writer if I stick to a writing schedule and show up every day to share. It doesnt have to be perfect. But it matters that I show up.Robert Greene, Author of Mastery once said, If we follow the mastery process long enough, inspired by a profound interest and curiosity we cannot fail to achieve something exceptional.Mastering anything usually involves exploration, adjustment, and improvisation. You cant always know your destination in advance.And thats okay. But be prepared for constant average work to get better at mastering the skill you have chosen to master. Give yourself permission to screw up and move on when things dont go as plans.Genius can only show up in your work when you show up enough times to work through the average.Thats what kept Thomas Edison sane.He knew that every failure was a step closer to the right solution that will actually work. Edison went through thousands of prototypes before getting the electric light bulb right.He became famous for saying I have not failed. Ive just found 10,000 ways that wont work.You cant create a masterpiece without creative mess. Whatever you intend to mast er now or in the future, you need to prepare yourself for the long haul.And that means hundreds of thousands of hours will be spent making mistakes and starting over. And thats okay.You will discover what works for you in the process.Whatever it is, make it your own.The work of the best creators isnt dependent on staying motivated but it follows a set of routines and patterns and a lot of hard work every day.If you are serious about honing in on your craft, you have to go through a volume of work, put in your best repetitions and show up over and over again. Its the only way. Value the process.There are no shortcuts to mastery. binnensee your projects, even finished ones, as work-in-progress. It rules out the need to aim for perfection.No single act will uncover more creative powers in you than forcing yourself today to start, do, create or make something you care about. And when you do, embrace the long process of mastery.One of the greatest impediments to creativity is impatience. It pays to value and embrace the creative process. Its the only way to master any skill.ConclusionShowing up means being prepared mentally and physically to put in the work, regardless of outside factors or obstacles, including your own naysaying mind.It pays to show up.Execute that project. Finish that book. Start a side-hustle. Share your creative pursuit. Sweat over your projects when you dont feel like it.Make progress, no matter how smallThe daily consistency helps you improve your skills and develop muscle memory.Do everything you can and show up when its your turn.

Kindness Matters in Your Career

Kindness Matters in Your Career Kindness Matters in Your Career Why do we assume that in order for us to do well at our jobs,other people must lose? Its a sad - and sadly common - state of affairs to think of life as a zero-sum game.When youre having a bad day, the thing you need most is a helping hand. If you havent given a hand to anyone else in the past - which youre not conditioned to do when you view others as competition - youre unlikely to get the help you need.Alternatively, if youve spent time helping others over the years, those around you are likely to do all they can for you.I heard a similar idea last year at thePodcast Movement conference. A speaker talked about how we, as podcasters, look at one another as competition. We each want to beNo. 1on iTunes. We dont want to help each other for fear that well lose listeners.Then, the speaker asked What would happen if we assumed there welches room for everyone? What would happen if we assumed that we could all succeed i n some way?If we changed our assumptions, itslikely that we would help each other more. We would talk to each other more. Wed share ideas and suggestions.We would all be more successful - together.Theres a strong temptation to be the best. We are taught to think this way as early as elementary school, where teachers rank us according to reading level or other distinctions. In continues into high school, where we fight to become the valedictorian or the best athlete. In college, there are scholarships and internships and letters of recommendation to be won. Theres always a ranking, and nobody wants to lose.But things dont really work this way. Life isnt about your solo struggle against the rest of the world. In life and business,we dont actually get ahead on our strength alone. We get ahead because of the people on our teams. We get ahead when we share our talents with others and lean on those whose strengths complement our own.Even if you could get ahead on your own, what would the prize be at the end of the journey?With whomcould you share your winnings? All aloneis a pretty lonely place to be.Remember Theres room for everyone at the top, and the best way to get there is together.A version of this article originally appeared onCopeland Coaching.Angela Copeland is a career coach and CEO at her firm,Copeland Coaching.
