According to some research studies, the number one reason why managers and executives find themselves with a stalled or underperforming career is a lack of interpersonal skills. This might seem surprising, given the amount of training and attention given to technical skills and business knowledge, but the fact remains that there is more to career success than just knowing the facts.

Hard Skills vs. Soft Skills A typical business degree program or executive training program will focus on what are considered hard skills. Examples might include strategic business planning, financial analysis, budgeting, or product development. These are all important things to know, but an increasing number of companies are also interested in the so-called soft skills.

These soft skills are best defined as how a manager interacts with people. An evaluation of soft skills might include answer the following questions:

What behaviors does the manager consistently demonstrate? How is the manager viewed by others at levels at, above, and below his or her organizational level? How does the manager communicate with others? How does the manager handle team-building situations? Does the manager get along with other people?

Getting Personal Many business professionals have difficulty with soft skills because they are so personal in nature, but it is exactly these soft skills that are keys to success as a manager and leader. Even more difficult is accepting the reality of poor soft skills and making an effort to improve.

It is not enough anymore to know how to analyze a profit and loss statement. A good manager or leader will take that profit and loss statement and use it to coach employees, facilitate team productivity, and lead toward performance improvement. This cannot be done simply by reading the numbers and telling people that numbers need to change. It is done by interacting with people in a way that encourages them, motivates them, and reinforces their value to the team.

Improving Interpersonal Skills The good news is that everyone can learn new interpersonal skills and improve upon their old ones. Most managers will say that they already have good interpersonal skills, so it comes as a shock when they receive open, honest feedback that says they need to make improvements. Only through such feedback, though, can areas for improvement be identified and specific goals set for practicing new behaviors.

For example, if you are perceived as a poor listener then you can practice new behaviors to change that perception. You might set a goal to focus more on listening to another person in one-on-one situations, or to limit your contributions in a group discussion so that others can contribute more.

Another strategy is to enlist the help of a learning partner. This person observes you and provides you with regular feedback on whatever behavior you are trying to improve. He or she is your cheerleader when you do well and your coach when you can do better.

Putting it All Together The bottom line is that when it comes to being a good manager or leader, you must master the hard skills of your specific job as well as the soft skills of interpersonal relations. Interpersonal skills must be a focus of your leadership development. Some people are naturally better at personal interactions, but anyone can learn to do better. The key is to recognize the importance of interpersonal relations, honestly evaluate your skill level, and consciously improve those behaviors that need work.

The Wall Street Journal has reported that the average businessperson wastes an hour a day because of disorganization. That’s 6 weeks a year! Want to be more productive? Follow these 10 tips!

1. MANAGE YOUR TIME

Use only one calendar (or electronic device) to track your appointments, otherwise it's too easy to overlook something or to double-book your time.

1. CLEAR CLUTTER

Make some room on your desk – remove all supplies and gadgets that you don't use every day. Take a look at the items on your bulletin board and the Post-its on your computer – throw out ancient history. Uncover your horizontal surfaces – credenzas, tables, bookshelves.

1. ORGANIZE YOUR INFORMATION

Create a filing system that works for you. Use hanging folders with plastic tabs (e.g., Pendaflex) to organize your papers. Create a filing system for your electronic documents that mirrors your system for paper. For more filing tips visit http://101FilingTips.com

1. DON'T WASTE SPACE

Use your space effectively so that you can find things quickly. Keep critical and frequently-used items and information within arms' reach. Use a vertical step rack or a file box for "hot" files. Move your furniture and office equipment so that you can easily access the things you need.

1. TRAVEL TROUBLE-FREE

Lists, lists, lists! Start a list of the information and materials you must bring with you as soon as you plan a trip. Keep a master list of items you always need to bring along – from your toothbrush to your business cards. Give a copy of your itinerary with contact numbers to someone who isn’t traveling with you.

1. PREVAIL OVER EMAIL

Check and respond to e-mail at designated "sessions" rather than continuously throughout the day. Mute the incoming mail chime to make it easier to ignore each message.

1. MAKE THE MOST OF MEETINGS

Have a written agenda, ideally with timeframes. Be vigilant about starting and ending on time. Keep information for different meetings in separate folders or binders. Write the date on your notes. Keep track of any actions you promised to take.

1. MINIMIZE INTERRUPTIONS

The average businessperson is interrupted every 8 to 9 minutes. When you really need to get something done, make yourself unavailable – no phone calls, no e-mail, no visitors. It’s okay to not answer a ringing phone. Even a cellphone. Really.

1. GET GREAT GEAR

From your letter opener to your computer, don’t tolerate products and tools that aren’t perfect, however you define it. Your briefcase/bag is like a portable office – make sure you love yours and that it works for you.

1. MAKE A HABIT OF GETTING ORGANIZED

Spend a few minutes every day to "create order from chaos" – even 5 minutes will make a difference. 15 minutes could transform your life.

A way for you to earn a living from the comforts of your home has just been revealed. You can earn anywhere from $500 to $3,500 on your own time, with no boss to please and appease, no deadline pressures to give you ulcers, and no co-workers who will drive you nuts.

Have you have participated in a survey where they gave you a gift of some kind? Like the ratings surveys they do for TV and Radio? Or for a new detergent or toothpaste or something? If so, then you know that survey companies actually pay you for your opinion. Sometimes not much, and sometimes a lot. But the accumulated monthly earnings provide you with a solid income without leaving your bedroom or living room.

This non-traditional job may be hard to explain to people so used to the dredges of the office work life. But the truth is taking part in online surveys don't take much time–twenty to fifty hours a week is fine. You can even do it part-time. It all depends on you.

By taking paid surveys, you can effectively escape the nine to five trap and start earning without selling anything, without owning a website, and without prior experience in any technical field. You don't need a fancy degree; you can work your pajamas, using just an Internet-connected PC.

A solid income without the job headaches most people have. Imagine that. To find out more on how you can earn at home without the stress of an office job, visit PAID SURVEYS

Have you ever wondered what makes a successful leader successful?

When speaking with the folks they lead, I’ve noticed one of the main topics that repeatedly comes up is the leader’s ability to clearly and consistently communicate their thoughts, policies, feedback, and desires effectively to those around them. It’s not just enough to tell a person what needs to be done it’s more about how the telling is done.

Directions, feedback, motivation, and other elements that the leader deals with on a constant basis need to be concise and unambiguous, while at the same time playing into the behaviors and attitudes of those receiving the message.

The successful leader also knows that leaving communication to chance is a sure way to cause unnecessary problems. Chance is having the “Whispering down the lane” or “Telephone” game permeate the process. Any leader will tell you that when he or she gave directions to someone who gave directions to someone who gave directions to someone (no this isn’t a typo) things got all messed up! That’s what e-mail, snail mail, and memos are for. Putting directives in writing is the easiest way to avoid costly (in both time and money) mistakes. Unless you have a storeroom filled with extra time and pallets of cash, why open yourself up to misinterpretation.

However, even the written word can cause people to scratch their heads. Confusing verbiage and poorly worded communiqués can create as much chaos as an unspecific telephone call. Being concise and clear within the written message can also prevent the storeroom and its pallets from being used and abused.

It’s not above a leader to have someone (a secretary or colleague) review written directions and statements before his or her “live audience” sees them.

Think of the leader as a well-known author who has an editor and a PR staff at his or her disposal. Do you think that the author wouldn’t use them if or when the opportunity arose? Of course not! Poor communication by a person in a leadership position can prevent them from becoming a top leader and cause bad internal PR in the process.

When the spoken word is the only medium the leader has at hand, the best and easiest way they avoid confusion is to have the recipient of the message repeat the content back to them. It may take a few seconds longer but it sure beats the time it would later take to correct any problems. And – it’s still best to back the dialogue up with an e-mail or memo later. I’ve known leaders who are not above telling the message receiver to e-mail them later with their understanding of what was said.

Once the leader knows what he or she wants to say, they are also keenly aware of the way they speak or write it relative to the person receiving their thoughts. Some folks like to hear or read things in a bulleted fashion, short, to the point, with no extra chitchat. While others like a bit of superficial social interplay before the points are made…a “So, how ‘bout those Knights, five runs down in the ninth and they pull it out!” type of introduction before being hit over the head with a directive or policy. Still others like details, the more the better, not much information overload with them. And finally there’s the type who feels more in tuned with the leader when they’re first asked something substantive, “Hope all’s going smoothly with your kids and that your dog is feeling better.”

While this may seem a bit unusual to some…after all why does the leader need to speak or write in a way that targets the reader or listener when they’re the leader and folks should just listen. Well, Dwight Eisenhower said it best, “Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he (or she) wants to do it.” Knowing how to get someone to do something you want done really is an art and the best artists in business are leaders who recognize the fact that people like people like themselves. The better the leader relates to his or her people the easier it is to get them to do things in an effective, efficient, and profitable manner.

Being a leader is not much different than being an actor, in fact it’s the same. The leader is taking on that role. The best actors know how to touch a chord with the audience. Emotions, motivations, and energy all play significant parts in the process.

Knowing what motivates the leader’s audience and playing to those motivators is the leader’s secret communications weapon. Whether the audience member is into making money, learning new things, helping people, gaining power and influence, creating peace and harmony, and/or working within the framework of traditions and set parameters, or a combination of any of those factors, the successful leader knows it and focuses his or her communications it that direction.

Understanding motivation and behavior are key ingredients in the leaders inventory of skills that enable him or her to build an organization or division through effective communications and empowers them to rise up to the next level within the organization. Sure it’s great to know how to communicate well, but it’s even better when it helps you, the leader, create a less stressful and more efficient business life.

The quicker the leader removes the old “Just tell ‘em what you want done and if they don’t do it fire ‘em” mentality and begins approaching communications in a manner in which the recipient starts processing the messages instinctively, the easier it becomes to “Get someone else to do something you want done because he (or she) wants to do it.” What a wonderful feeling it is when the leader knows that he or she is in control by making his or her team members, staff, and/or colleagues think that they are!

Unless you are very wealthy or extremely good at winning lotteries, you can expect to be working for 40 years of your life or more. And while not everyone has what it takes to become a top executive, you do have complete control over how far you go and how much you earn in your career. You can crack the corporate success code! But only if you stop making career-killing mistakes like these:

MISTAKE #1: Not knowing the real purpose of your resume.

Of all the things critical to landing a great job, having a great resume isn't on the list because that's not its real purpose! And you cannot create a killer resume if you don't know what that purpose actually is—getting short-listed for an interview.

MISTAKE #2: Going for a job interview and not getting the answer to the most important question of all before you start answering the interviewer's questions.

The hiring decision is made in the first four minutes of a job interview. Everything that happens after this only serves to reinforce the interviewer’s decision. You HAVE to get the answer to this question. Before time is up. If you don't, odds are you’ll just be wasting their time and yours. (Hint: employers are only ever looking to hire one of two kinds of people.)

MISTAKE #3: Believing the key to success is working hard and putting in long hours then making sure your boss knows about it.

Most people believe ensuring people know how hard you are working is the #1 key to getting ahead. No. No. A thousand times no! This is actually one of the fastest ways to hold yourself back in your career! And it’s not very good for your health either. (Only 3% of people working hard ever experience success.)

MISTAKE #4: Volunteering to help with the wrong corporate events.

Many events you'll be attracted to volunteer for are dangerous. And a couple of them are guaranteed career killers! Apply your volunteer efforts only where they’ll do no harm and where they’ll have the greatest long-term impact.

MISTAKE #5: Failing the secret test hidden in all expense reporting. Or worse, not knowing there is one to begin with! This is one of the first tests your boss will give you. Most people fail.

MISTAKE #6: Not knowing how to keep from committing career suicide at the computer, the water cooler or coffee station, your desk, lunch, after hours, at company functions and at the office!

These are the most popular venues for making fatal career-killing mistakes. Not knowing what to say and do (or what to never say or do) is a problem for most people. And it only takes one misstep in each of these situations to mess up!

MISTAKE #7: Not doing the one thing anyone can that renders all on-the-job competition irrelevant.

It requires no special tools or intelligence. And 98% of your co-workers will NOT be doing it. Guaranteed! So, if you’re not doing it (or don't know what it is you should be doing) you are automatically keeping yourself from getting ahead and won’t be taking home the paycheck you deserve.

MISTAKE #8: Believing the annual performance review is the best time to discuss a raise.

There are 3 times you have the most power when asking for more money. Your performance review is not one of them—in fact, it’s the worst time to have this discussion.

MISTAKE #9: Not knowing how to interact effectively with your boss.

Each boss you’ll ever have shows you the best way to interact with him or her on a daily basis. But most people aren't paying attention to the easy-to-read clues. So they keep getting it wrong. It’s the kiss of death for many career hopefuls.

MISTAKE #10: Not setting up an employment file to keep at home and not checking what the employer has in your personnel file once a year.

No one will ever care more about your career than you do. Create your own employment file and keep it at home. Once a year, make an appointment with Human Resources to review your personnel file. Mistakes happen. Only you can make sure all the good things that should be in your file are actually there. Opinions (strong ones) of your worth to the employer are formed on the basis of what is found in that file. Don’t let the wrong ones be made about you.

These are not the only career-killing mistakes people still make at work. And the one thing they have in common is all are easily preventable. The best way to do that is to get a good mentor. Someone more experienced, who can guide your way and keep you from making these mistakes in the first place!

The mentor-protégé relationship is a concept that originated in Homer's Odyssey. It was even discussed in an episode of Seinfeld. Everyone should partake in it. That is anyone who hopes to have a successful career. It’s one investment guaranteed to be a win/win! And not having a mentor is perhaps the greatest mistake of all!

Recruiting the right person for the right job is very important. This is a very costly affair as it could not only spoil the entire team spirit but the company has to also think about new recruitment and the way to cope up with the hired person on board.

Most people use few buzz words and add projects which they have not worked on. John, Oracle database administrator has never worked as a DBA earlier except for few development activities in Oracle. Similarly, Philip Fernando, Photoshop editor had never worked on Photoshop earlier. Hunter, Website developer has not touched HTML prior to taking up the new role.

Many resumes contain BizTalk server, MQ series and Tuxedo services even if the person do not possess full working knowledge of the same. Many do not know the how to do things for which they have been hired for. This is the common problem which we find in the IT industry today.

Avinash has a team and it is his responsibility to get the team up so that he could avoid doing any operational and menial work. But people in his team are totally unqualified to do their work and he spends his time in training sessions. According to Avinash, he used to love to teach others but now he is frustrated on training people from the basics up to the level of a decent worker. He is sick and tired of hearing to his manager who always says, “If we get this guy trained on this work, you never need to bother about the operation process and can concentrate on something critical for the project”.

Key factors: Black mark fake resumes – When you come across any such fake resumes during interview process, first identify the source of the resume. If it has been from any consultant, inform the consultant and check out if the resume gets formatted with the correct details. This would be a black mark both for the candidate as well as the consultant for maintaining fake resume details.

Strengthen Recruitment process – Hiring process should be strengthened. It is a lack of efficiency if we are hiring somebody to a job who is not 100% qualified to do the same. (a) Job description should correctly convey the mandatory requirement. (b) Test technical and work related aspects during interview. Managers, not very strong on checking technicality could take the help of technical person doing the work in doing the interview to weed out the fake resumes. (c) Though it is not essential for the manager to be technically sound, he or she needs the basic understanding and know-how of the job at least to weed out liars and fake resumes. Interview preparation – While hiring a candidate for the job, the interviewer should have the right set of questions to check the aptitude, skill and knowledge level of the candidate. Interviewer should ensure that the prospective employee would be able to deliver whatever is expected out of him.

Do now overlook – Try to avoid the factors which might cause hiring mistake like (a) overlook on the real on-field experience based on factors like long list of degrees and qualification of the applicant (b) looks, action and the confidence level expressed by the prospective employee (c) obligation to a friend as he / she is your friend’s friend (d) recommendation from your boss or boss’s boss (e) references and previous company history might be very impressive

Initiate Training – Instead of bugging employees like Avinash, hire a new person for training the basics. Once the basic knowledge is acquired, then person like Avinash should be able to provide the job related skill easily.

Express Concern – If you were in Avinash position, do share your concerns with your immediate boss and Manager. In fact, you can give facts and figures very clearly using the formula Unproductive (Wasted) Amount = ( Hired person’s salary approximately + Your salary ) * Number of hours spent on training This might help the Manager to make a decision of either paying more to a person who already knows it.

Improve Self-discipline – When you are applying for any position, keep your resume clean and correct. Do not put fake experience or buzz words unnecessarily. This should be inculcated as self-discipline and at any time you can express your willingness to learn new things.

Look for right attitude person – Suppose if the skill set is very rare and not easy to find a person with such a skill set, hirer a moderate fresher with a good attitude to learn and serve the company. On providing proper training with a definite time frame, he could be productive. This would be faster compared to finding a skilled person where such a skill set is rare.

Re-think and act: If you are interested in having a high performing team, the most essential aspect to look at is the right person on the right job. If the skill level of the employee does not satisfy the work expectations, then try to improve the same. However, it would be better to be proactive and recruit the right person for the right job.

To increase sales today begins by understanding that the first look, the first physical touch and the first word are all critical to your business success. The introduction is an integral part of relationship selling.

1. Dress professionally

Your professional attire is part of your introduction. Since human beings are conditioned to make decisions based on their experiences (some call this judgements), your potential customers after seeing you will have some judgements about your from your education to your economic status to your ethnicity. Your goal is to reduce as many of these as possible. Dressing professionally is the first step.

2. Keep positive eye contact on the other person

Much has been written about eye contact. When an individual can consistently look the other person in the eye without being threatening, this adds to the trust building process within relationship selling.

3. Give a handshake that conveys trust

Your handshake is the first physical touch that truly conveys trust. The handshake should not be too strong nor too weak, but rather just right. You may need to adjust your handshake to the other person’s hand, gender and even ethnicity or nationality.

4. Use person’s name

Everyone likes to hear her or his own name. This tip also helps you to remember the individual’s name the next time you meet. Just remember not to use the name excessively.

5. Have several intro speeches or elevator speeches in your marketing tool box

Depending upon the nature of where you meet your potential client as well as your products or services, you may need to have several introductory speeches. Each should create an immediate interest in what you do, but then focus on your prospect.

6. Hone your active listening skills

The ability to actively listen is one that few people leverage to the best of their abilities. You must:

• Take time to listen
• Be attentive
• Listen with an open mind
• Listen to return a positive and appropriate response
6. Remember the goal is to get an appointment!

As this is one of the first steps to increase sales, your goal is to get an appointment in which you can further develop the trust and build the relationship. What I have noticed, as a business coach, is that many in sales do the "puke price" or "puke product" thing before building the relationship. Then, wonder why they can’t realize an increase in sales.

Great introductions between you and your potential customers will increase your sales. The introduction is a key sales skills set in relationship selling. When you have mastered your introduction, you will master the goal that being an increase in sales.

Employee evaluations can sometimes be one of the most stressful times in a career for the managers and the employees. Employees are usually expecting evaluations to be done exactly one time while most of the time there is so much other stuff going on within the company that the managers or employers completely forget about the evaluation. The employee has to then deal with asking the employer for the evaluation which sometimes makes the employee very uncomfortable.

There are ways to make employee evaluations much more comfortable and less stressful. One thing that takes the stress off is letting the employee know up front when the evaluations will be done. The company should have it in the employee handbook how often an employee evaluation is done such as every 90 days or every year. This way, the employee knows when the evaluation is coming up. The employer should also mark it on their task list or calendar so that they do not forget and the employee has to ask for their on evaluation.

Having a clear job description is important as well so that the employee knows what they are supposed to be doing. Then, in the evaluation, these job descriptions can be rated with how the employee is doing. Then, there are no surprises and the employees do not understand why they got a bad evaluation.

One thing that employees always worry about for their evaluations is if they are going to receive a raise or not. It is important to have when raises are given outlined in the employee handbook. If reviews are every 90 days and a raise is only going to be given out once a year, this should be told to the employee. This way, they are not stressing about the fact that they are or are not going to get a raise.

If it is time for an employee's evaluation and they are not going to get a raise based on their performance, it is important that the employer go over every detail as to why they have not gotten raise. This will either work one way or another. It will either motivate the employee to work harder so that they can get a raise the next time they get a review or it will make them upset and their quality of work will suffer. Either way, it the employer has to let the employee know what is going on and why they have not gotten a raise. Otherwise, the tasks that are not getting done will continue to not get done.

Employee evaluations do not have to be stressful and it is important that the employee is told everything that the company wants them to know. If the employer leaves out things they wish the employee would change, they will not change them. Everybody has to be open. This way, both parties leave the evaluation happy.

At the end of the evaluation, it is always a good idea to have the employee give input and goals as to where they would like to be and grow in the company. This way, the employer knows what they are expecting from the company.

Project Black Mask is believed to become one of the most successful products in 2007. This will surely bring success not to those who market it, but to those who choose to invest in it.

This reveals the undiscovered “loophole” in Google’s system—one that the team has known about but for some reason have not closed yet. This secret remains underwrapped until the release of Project Black Mask ebook. This has something to do with Adsense and Pay per Click and of course, a large amount of money.

The best part about this ebook is that you don’t have to be an online marketing expert, a computer genius nor a degree holder to build an online fortune. What is more important is that:

a. You don't need to sell a product.. b. You don't need to throw out cash for advertising c. You don't even need to own a website.

Operation: Black Mask which reveals the key to unlocking the Google’s dirty little secret to build a fortune was produced by the team at DayJobKiller. These are the same guys who taught regular people how to make fortunes by selling affiliate products. To date their customers have earned thousands, even up to hundred thousands of dollars.

The guys at DayJobKiller spent the last 6 months seeking out a true “Insider”. This “Insider” is believed to have drawn up a complete blueprint that will let you get past the most seasoned pros, even if you have never made a dime online or if you've never put up a personal website before.

The Project Black Mask is all about an easy and lightning-fast system that will have you counting money almost instantly. This operation helps you stash cash day in and day out. Imagine waking up and heading towards a local coffee shop with your lap top, checking your account and discovering that you have made thousands of dollars while you were sleeping.

And then you close your laptop and call this a day. Sleep and do the same routine the next day with your account registering another batch of thousands of dollars. And how would you feel if this happens every single day?

Imagine this happening with just few hours of work every single day. Project Black Mask reveals the secrets to realizing this: the “door” to thousands of cash online.
