Today, as many young people have big dreams, but only a few taking action and acquire work experience practice while they are still young. Some young people who work may be in the right place at the right time when they got their job. Others with enormous talent really focus on their passion and their interests, fire as CEO Facebook Mark Zuckerberg, who has almost beat the school faced some parental objection when it was still the sites. With the good state of mind, drive and patience, people even citizens can obtain job opportunities good (or possibly lands "dream" job). Jobs for young people from 16 to 24 years gliding abound in the trade of retail and services industries.

Most schools offer jobs for young people as a clerk-typist, registration agent, teaching assistant, assistant of the library, etc. Fast food or community grocery stores even hire people like sales staff. Young who go for jobs can bag the positions they like turning on a well written resume and having a good attitude. Skills are, also, according to the open positions, though most of the employers think that they can be transmitted through training. Regional employment agencies who know what the business needs and requirements are also teaching fundamental skills, including the effective business, the youth communications.

If you are a parent help your high school or kid of College scout to find suitable employment for young people, you can keep an eye for "Hiring" signs when you are in a car autour. Coffee shops, pet shops or perhaps juice bars need to hands of young people. It is important to take account of the interests of your child, too. Otherwise, if the young continue a work that he or she did not really like, wake up each morning and working relationships will be more like a chore rather than something hastily and lessons. College-level children who take a hotel and restaurant management courses will benefit from exposure of work related to their field. They may work as crew members of the service and/or take their internship in a hotel that accepts job trainees after their screening.

Leadership Development and Transition Coaching

Many newly appointed top executives fail in the initial year of their appointment due to their inability to:

a. adjust to the new roles
b.develop strong relationship
c. lack of understanding of the business imperatives.

Organisation can utilize the transition coaching to assist the newly appointed leaders to settle down.

Making the transition
Transition coaching differs from the executive coaching as it is time-bound and normally last a shorter duration. It normally has three main goals:

1. To accelerate the transition process by providing just-on-time coaching.
2. Prevent mistake that will harm the business and the future of the leader.
3. Assist the leaders to develop valuable action plan that will bring positive result to the company.

The coach and the leader will develop a credible transition action plan such as the 30 days plan and 100 days plan that focus on quick wins in order to establish early wins.

Frequently, the coach will conduct a pulse check on the relevant plays to get the feel of the positions of the leaders. The feed back will give the leader ample opportunity to correct the situation

get right references

Getting the right reference for your application for a job will make your life easier. We do not want the reference to be giving a negative comments for the things that we may have unintentionally done in the past, out of our own immaturity of ignorant.

These are the suggestions of selecting your references:

1. Select the people that are comfortable to speak on your behalf. They may need more time to prepare and think about your request, so give them an ample notice. Selecting the wrong person to be the reference can backfire,for example, he may not remember you, and when the hiring manager contacts him, his response will be, "sorry, I do not know this person".

2. Dont be too selective about the job title, the reference is needed to provide evidence of past performance. The person can be your peers or even your own staff who can provide a positive feedback about your previous jobs and your character.

3. Remember that this is a small world, as such do not burn the bridge with your previous employers, your previous bosses or peers. The hiring person can easily contact them for feedback.

4. Tell the truth. It is very damaging to get a comment such as..' he did not do the project, I did it' or the worst can be " he is the type of person who do not tell the truth".

Hopefully you can have a better chance to get the job by giving your hiring person the right references.

What is Knowledge Based Economy and How Can We Benefit from its Coming?

This short article is a good start to explain what is a knowledge based economy. This where the economy rely greatly on the production, utilisation of knowledge and the process involved to distribute it.

By John Rowes

What is knowledge based economy and how can we benefit from its coming?

It has been a long time since the coming of knowledge-based economy was announced. The major change that is said to turn a society upside down is upon us now. But what does knowledge-based economy really mean?

Definition

Knowledge based economy is a kind of economy based solely on the production, distribution and the use of knowledge. In short, it means that the most important thing in the coming economy model will be knowledge and skills, not the material products.

What's the difference?

At first it may seem that there is only little difference between a normal economy model and a knowledge based one. In both we just create, buy and sell the products, and their nature seems to be exactly the same. But as we take a closer look, things change. There are a few reasons for that:

1. Knowledge is easily copied. If you've had a good idea, everyone will quickly adopt it unless you do something to prevent it.

2. Knowledge comes through the borders easier than material products. While Chinese are dangerous only to a few sectors of the US economy, knowledge-based economy model calls for moving most of jobs away from US to those countries that have skilled workforce, but are much cheaper than US (India, and eastern part of EU are the good examples of such places).

3. The knowledge is quickly becoming obsolete. You need to be prepared for constant creation of knowledge if you hope to keep up with your competitors.

How to cope with knowledge problems in your company and benefit rather than suffer from the incoming changes?

In short, knowledge based economy will create a lot of problems for small and large companies alike. Counterfeits and violation of your copyrights will eat your profits, most of your contractors will move their orders abroad and the situation in your company (and the whole economy) will change at the speed of light.

However instead of fighting the inevitable we can profit from that. The coming of a new economy model will create as many new possibilities as problems.

1. You will be able to use outsourcing to minimize your cost. In the effect you will be able to offer lower prices while still having an upper hand because of running a business in US.

2. Instead of preventing everyone from using your ideas, go for paid Internet-sharing and let everyone profit from your concepts. Or leave it altogether, offer your ideas for free and profit from the advertisements and high traffic on your website.

3. With coming of knowledge based economy business management has become easier than before. Internet and cell phones make contacting anyone anywhere anytime possible. Use it!
