Great Workplaces Do the Laundry First

Great Workplaces Do the Laundry FirstGreat Workplaces Do the Laundry FirstGreat Workplaces Do the Laundry First Robin, Ph.D., and Michael Burchell , Ed.D., co-authors of No Excuses How You Can Turn Any Workplace into a Great One (Jossey-Bass, 2013)There is an old Zen saying, after enlightenment, the laundry which beautifully captures the idea that one can never let go of the minutia that helped enable the enlightened state in the first place.All of us have life management tasks such as purchasing groceries, paying bills and doing laundry that are necessary to organize our life and that help facilitate other higher order things such as engaging in meaningful work or connecting with loved ones.The same is true in business. We need to get the basics right and do the organizational laundry.Take Care of the Laundry FirstOur view of organizational laundry is having a clearly articulated mission and vision, company values that guide the organization, an effective strategy, a productive mana gement system, and a company culturethat supports all of this.We too often find, however, organizations operating without reference to the basics. Quickly, the vision becomes a slogan, the business plan becomes a door stop, and the values are a plaque on the wall.Conversely, in great workplaces, we find that behind their financial success lies a strong sense of identity that helped create such excellence in the first place.Through our experience, it has become clear that only in addressing these areas of organizational laundry can you really leverage the power and opportunity that comes from creating and sustaining a great workplace.But as mundane as the laundry sounds, it can be energizing. As long as your effort helps to reinforce the sense of organizational identity, it contributes to a great workplace and buffers against the inertia of excuses.The Necessity of Mission, Vision and ValuesAt W. L. Gore Associates, they talk about their one objective which is to make money and have fun. As a business, they understand that they need to make money or they wont have a business for long.On the other hand, they also appreciate that having fun together as they accomplish their goals builds an enduring business for the long term. Both need to be in balance, and at Gore, they work diligently in meeting their one objective. And as a result, Gore is a very solid business.No matter what form they take, an adage such as that at W. L. Gore and Associates or a more formal statement, best companies have a clearmission, vision, and values first and foremost.Second, they have a well-crafted strategy or plan for achieving their vision and goals.Third, they have created the right managementstructure to align their internal resources in service of that vision.And fourth, they have developed a strong, sustainable high-trust workplace culture that enables its employees to deliver on that vision.ansicht four points are summed up well by Rajeev Peshawaria in Brains, Bones, and Nerve s The Only Three Things an Enterprise Leader Should Focus On, an online publication by 800-ceo-read (2011). In it, he explains that there are a vital few things an enterprise leader should focus on. He offers,The key is to control and shape the three most important levers of sustainable business growththe Brains, the Bones, and the Nerves. The brains of a business are its vision and strategy, and here the enterprise leader must shape and set direction. The bones are the organizational architecture, and here the enterprise leader must design the organization in order to execute the strategy. And the nerves refer to the culture and climate of the organization, and here the enterprise leader must foster a culture of long-lasting excellence.At the cola Company, they have been able to capture the brains, bones and nerves onto a single page document that all managers and all employees have access to, understand, and use in their work.The Coca-Cola Company sees their mission as refreshing the world, inspiring moments of optimism and happiness, creating value, and making a difference.The Coca-Cola system is comprised of both the company that produces the syrups and infrastructure and the over 300 independent bottlers and distributors around the world. Their corporate culture is focused on creating a great place to work throughout their entire organization.As one of the managers we spoke with at Coca-Cola explained,Theres a visionary document that looks 10 years ahead with 6 Ps including portfolio, people, profit, and partners. Everybody in the organization knows they play a very important role and results are tracked in each of the Ps. We have this phenomenal strategy that took us some time to put in place, and now the culture is following this.It took Coca Cola some time to align to their plan, but now they are really beginning to see the payoff for doing this organizational laundry and creating a great workplace in the process.Reprinted by permission from the publi sher, Jossey-Bass, a Wiley brand, from No Excuses How You Can Turn Any Workplace into a Great One by Jennifer Robin and Michael Burchell Copyright (c) 2013 by Jennifer Robin and Michael Burchell.Author BiosJennifer Robin, Ph.D., is a research fellow at Great Place to Work Institute.

Tips for Writing a Technical Feasibility Study

Tips for Writing a Technical Feasibility StudyTips for Writing a Technical Feasibility StudyA technicalfeasibilitystudy assesses the details of how you intend to deliver a product or service to customers. Thinkmaterials, labor, transportation, where your geschftlicher umgang will be located, and the technology that will be necessary to bring all this together. Itsthe logistical or tactical plan ofhowyour business will produce, store, deliver, and track its products or services. A technicalfeasibilitystudy is an excellent tool for both troubleshooting and long-term planning. It can serve as a flowchart of how your products and services evolve and move through your business to physically reach your market. Begin- or End- With an Executive Summary The word summary is key here. Highlight the key points of each section youll include in your technical feasibility study. You can do this in advance to provide yourself with a sort of guideline or skeleton to follow as you prepare your stu dy. It is often easier and mora concise to write it after youve finished, so you have the information you want to include right in front of you. In either case, the summary should appear at the beginning of your technical feasibility study. Preparean Outline Even if you decide to write your executive summary last, you can begin with an outline that will serve a similar purpose in guiding you through the remainder of the study. The order in whichyou present technical information isnt as important as making aya you have all the components in place to show how you can run your business. You donthave to include specific financial information in the technical portion of yourfeasibilitystudy. However, all information in this component should support financial datarepresented elsewhere. Basic areas youll want to cover include materials, labor, transportation or shipping, physical location, and technology. Be sure to include a thorough description of the services or products youll be of fering. How will your business benefit consumers? Give investors a reason to choose you over your competitors. Calculate Material Requirements List the materials youll require to produce a product or service. This section is where youll indicate where youll get those materials. Include information such as whether volume discounts will be available as your business grows or if you plan to manufacture your parts at some point in time. Include what parts and supplies youll need to produce a product, including things like glue and nails. Mention all materials that will be involved in producing or manufacturing what youre selling. You dont have to include actualfinancial data in this portion of the study either. However, financial data that supports your narrative assessment should be included as an attachment in a separate spreadsheet. CalculateLabor Requirements You cantrun a business, offer services, ormanufacturer productswithout the help of others and that help will cost you . Even if you start your business as its only employee, youll have to add to your labor pool at some point if you plan to grow. In most cases, labor will be one of your biggest small business expenses, if not the biggest. List the number and types of employees you need to run your business now and that you might have to employ in the future as your business grows. You can break labor into categories if necessary, such as senior-level management, office, and clerical support, production or distribution staff, professional staff including lawyers, accountants, engineers, and marketing, and fulfillment employees- those in the mailroom or shipping department. If you plan to outsourceorder fulfillment, fundraising, or other aspects of your companys business, be sure to list what functions youre targeting and to whom youll send ansicht tasks. Transportation and Shipping Requirements How will you transport items if you must send them from one place to another? Smaller items can be ship ped via local carriers, DHL, or USPS, but heavy orbulkitems must be transported via a freight or trucking company. If youreshipping perishable items, youll need special overnight handling. You might also need special permits to ship certain items, and nonprofit organizations should consider applying for discounted postal rates. These are all things that affect the how of moving your goods from one place to another. If you offer services, how will trainers, educators, consultants, andausverkauf personnel get to customers and clients? You will need a licensed distributor or pharmacy to ship on your behalf if you offer a product thatsgoverned by state or federal law such as medications or prescription medical supplies, Calculate Marketing Requirements How will you reach consumers? It is a crucial consideration because your business will fail without them. Its something investors will be keen to know. Go beyond simple advertising plans, although this is important, too. Exactly what type of advertising campaign do you plan to launch?Will you lean more heavily on print media or other options and what consumers will you target? Explain why they would want to buy from you rather than any of your competitors. The Physical Location of Your Business Where you run your business will have an effect on your success. If yourestarting in ahome-based office, determine when and if youll need a brick and mortar office at some point in the future- office spaceoutside your home. Will you eventually need warehouse facilities, your factory, or your trucking facility? Will you require a retail storefront or any other purchased or rented facilities to conduct your business? Discuss the pros and cons of where these facilities will be located in the physical location component of your feasibility study.Should they be in one central location or across state lines? Do you need special parking considerations for customers or trucks? Do you have to be near other facilities such as a n airport, a commerce center, or a shopping mall? Technology Requirements to Run Your Business Every business needs at least some kind of technology to operate. The technology component of yourfeasibilitystudy should include discussionsabout telephone answering systems, computer hardware and software, and inventory management. Dont overlook items like cash registers and potentially the ability to accept credit cards and process checks. You might need special devices to accommodate the disabled, or teleconferencing equipment and facilities. Cellphones and PDAs are almost a must for most businesses, and you might need alarm or camerasystems and manufacturing equipment as well. Include Target Dates Tell investors when you plan to do what to bring your concept to fruition. Dont neglect to mention the small steps. Cover it all, from initial organizational meetings to when youll purchase equipment or facilities and when and how youll open your doors for business. Be reasonable. Yo u dont want to promise that youll perform by a miraculous deadline then fail to do so. Support Your Financial Information Dontmake the mistake of trying to entice investors with your staggering growth projections and a potential return on their investment. Theres always an increase in expenses with an increase inrevenue. Dont rely strictly onfeasibilitystudy conclusions to impressan investor. An experienced investor or lending institution will read your entire report and come to their conclusions. Its therefore critical that the technical and financial data in your study reconcile. If other parts of yourfeasibilitystudy show growth, youll also have to project labor and other costs and the technical ability to support that growth. The technical component should serve as the written explanation of your financial data because it offers you a place to include detailed information as to why an expense has been projected high or low. You can explain why its even necessary. It demonstr ates to potential investors and lenders- and in some cases, potential clients- that youve thought about the long-termneeds your business will have as it grows. Summary of the TechnicalFeasibilityStudy Be sure to include all the technical requirements of your business from production to customer receipt. This information will help investors know more about the operations of your business. Having a great idea for a product or business isntenough- you have to show how you can make money from it. The technicalfeasibilitystudy addresses the physical and logistical mechanics of it, and how youll be able to get something into theproduct and back out the door to customers.

Open Office Floor Plan Pros and Cons

Open Office Floor Plan Pros and ConsOpen Office Floor Plan Pros and ConsOnce upon a time, cubicles and private offices were all the rage in corporate workspaces, with their sound-proof barriers and privacy partitions. Then the walls were cleared out and long, shared desks moved in, to make way for the more contemporary open office floor plan.If youre a manager, you may be making a move to open your workspaces, too. An open office floor plan would save the company money, after all, allowing you to ditch the doors so you can promote accessibility and teamwork among your employees.Taking the lead from tech startups, traditional companies have embraced open-space layouts in recent years. But bedrngnis everybodys on board with them, a new Robert Half survey shows. Respondents said open floor plans may help collaboration and isolation, but they have definite downsides when it comes to productivity, creativity, energy levels and stress.landsee the survey results in The Optimal Office Space Configuration slideshow, below.Is there an ideal workspace for finance teams?Kathleen Downs, a vice president with Robert Half Finance Accounting, says theres no one-model-fits-all office floor plan for every company.The ideal workspace may be a hybrid office that allows for collaboration with communal areas but also is designed to accommodate the need for quieter, enclosed spaces, she says. Employers should consider the balance of company culture, workflows, job functions, department needs and employee preferences.Just as managers need to effectively lead and motivate multiple generations in the workforce, they should also make an effort to create an office setting thats attractive to candidates and longtime employees.In todays hiring environment, firms are willing to compete fiercely for your top performers, and recruitment and retention efforts should be top of mind, Downs said. Aside from providing the essentials, such as phones, computers and comfortable chairs, you should thi nk about your work environment as a whole and whether its considered a extra or a stumbling block. The Optimal Office Space Configuration from Robert Half Pros and cons of office configurationsOne of the ways managers can decide whats right for their office, Downs says, is to consider the pros and cons of the different office configurationsPrivate offices - enclosed space for one worker with a door.Pros Employees can make business and personal phone calls, hold meetings or have private conversations without being seen or heard by other staff members.Cons Theyre expensive and require more space to implement. Workers who close their doors can seem unapproachable.Private cubicles - enclosed area for one worker with tall walls that are not ceiling height, allowing the person inside to hear but not see colleagues.Pros They provide some privacy.Cons Outside discussions can be distracting, and employees worrie d about disrupting others might avoid conversations, prohibiting collaboration.Semi-private cubicles - designated space with short walls that allow workers to see and hear each other.Pros Professionals can see each other, making it easier to have spontaneous conversations. This option offers an open floor plan feel, but also allows workers to feel ownership of their space.Cons Impromptu conversations can be disruptive to nearby workers trying to focus.Open floor plan - undesignated areas for workers, free of dividing walls can include a communal table with bench seating or movable furniture.Pros This option saves on overhead costsand is best for roles, departments or industries that require a high level of collaboration.Cons Its not ideal for introverted personalities or those who require a quiet space for concentration. It also lacks sound privacy for confidential discussions.Combination of open and closed workspaces - includes some private work stations such as offices, private or semi-private cubicles, as well as areas for collaboration such as couches in a designated area.Pros It isnt as disruptive as other types of configurationsand allows for employees to gather in common areas.Cons Its more expensive to implement and can take more time to design this type of space.Remember that top companies are constantly reinventing themselves, and as your company evolves, so will your office environment. Whatever workspace change you decide on for your office dwellers - open, closed or somewhere in between - should be a tactical decision, one thats accompanied with adequate advancenotice to your staff.Create a physical setting where people want to work, and both collaboration and productivity will come your way.Get more articles and resources to build and manage a winning team.

Change Management Tips From Human Resources Pros

Change Management Tips From Human Resources ProsChange Management Tips From Human Resources ProsWhen you ask an organization and its employees to change, you open up a huge can of worms. People often like what the final organization looks like on the other side of a change, but they may be deeply resistant when the change is introduced. This is because employees are human. They fear what will exist on the other side of the changes because they are comfortable in their here and now. Even when employees acknowledge that changes are needed, you need to introduce changes incrementally and follow recommended procedures to build support and ownership of the changes. These steps in organizational change, while bedrngnis always appearing on a schedule, will occur and play out as your organization proceeds to make changes in your ways of working. The following tips allow you to make changes with the least amount of pain and challenge. Change Management Tips From Pros in the Field In a rea der survey, hundreds of respondents offered these recommendations andtips for managing the process of change. These change management tips should help you implement changes that range from implementing new goals and direction to lean manufacturing to total organization transformation. Deal with people involved in the change process with patience, gentle humor, grace, persistence, pragmatism, respect, understanding, and support.Take a long and broad view of change, and think about the impact of changes over one, three, and five years.Continue all of the behaviors and processes discussed in the articles below until change has the opportunity to become anchored in the culture. Dr. W. Edwards Deming in all of his work in continuous improvement emphasized the importance of the constancy of purpose. Set up changes so that people in your organization experience some early wins.Recognize that effective change is usually a realignment of the worldview of your employees, rather than a program or flavor of the month.People involved in change will need to recognize that change is risky change can be scary change can often entail the real desire and need to slip back into their comfort zone. Effective change requires constant vigilance to resist slipping back into the old, comfortable ways of doing business. Finally, as much as employees need to celebrate new beginnings, you will need to provide opportunities for employees to mourn the past, to let go of familiar ways of doing work. Recognize that even as change is, hopefully, a true gain for your organization, it is also always a loss. People lose coworkers, comfortable work processes, known ways of doing things, communication networks, security, and stability, or confidence in their own capability. Recognize their loss, and you will assist people to move more quickly with you into the brave new world. Change Management Lessons From the earlier mentioned reader survey, tips and ideas emerged from the experience and p ast practices of pros who work with organizational change. In their own words, they share with you what theyve learned from years of experience working with change. Most of the problems in organizations are fixable through organizational changes (structure, process,culture) and learning (bedrngnis necessarily the same as training). Its farrarerthan we might think that you really need to get someone out of the organization. Change is continuous. Change management is a fad that in many respects may or may not work. It is clearly the measurement of change that organizations are most interested in as they wish to drive and direct it. The workplace evolution of change causes great difficulty as it has appeared to accelerate beyond, in many cases, the human capacity to keep up. This has been referenced for hundreds of years, the fact that generally, people are not prepared to embrace any change as quickly as most organizations wish to impose. It is, in fact, this skill (adaptability, flex ibility, resiliency) that is the basis of survival of the fittest, not a new philosophy. The fittest, however, are most often not the masses. Finally, it is the imposition of change, in a formal fashion, that causes the greatest change shift in the wrong direction. Change that is assumed, incorporated or aligned with the true motivations of the individual is the change that is most positive and most profound. This is the work that my company strives to achieve, meeting the people where they are...Change by permission, rather than enforcement. The key in any change process is to discern the need that is felt both from the organizations perspective and the individuals.Usually,change efforts wait until after the last minute when the pain is so high that it can no longer be resisted. This leads to massivelayoffsand overreactions. If on the other hand, the leadership build a strong reflective process and trust for each other, two things take place. Issues are surfaced before they become overwhelming and a strategy can be developed which all understand or, When crises develop the substance is present to pull together and deal with it.Obviously,this is not an easy place to live as there is always a temptation to lapse into being so appreciative that you stop paying attention to the realities that may be harsh themselves. Open and honest communications are assumed but dont happen, because of a lack of trust. Expect tough times ahead everyone expects that after the initiation event, it should go smoothly, but the most painful part is yet to come the transition period. Recognizing this early on in the process will help weather the storms ahead. In the government, change interventions generally come from outside pressure. Congress or others might designate a new pay program as something that should be done or a study of an agency failure makes recommendations. Thus, few people inside an agency psychologically own the solution so they only talk, not walk the talk. Manage ment underestimates or avoids the personal energy/time required for success. Upper management makes statements, forms task forces, and waits for the change to roll-out. Lower levels do what is forced and wait it out.

3 Minimalistic Resume Templates for Maximum Career Success

3 Minimalistic Resume Templates for Maximum Career Success 3 Minimalistic Resume Templates for Maximum Career Success Visibility: The Minimalistic All-Rounder Are you struggling with choosing the right template for your resume? With our selection of 30+ resume designs and 100.000+ possible variations, finding the right one can take some time. For this reason, we want to introduce you to our resume templates one by one. These are the three newest minimalistic resume templates available to all our Premium users. In , we always strive to provide you with the widest array of functional resume designs for every job position. For this reason, we put a lot of thought into every single one of them. In this article, we want to expose the key concepts behind three of our resume templates- Visibility,  Midnight/Midday, and  Ladder.  We hope that once you understand the creative process behind them, youll be able to make even better resumes than you do now. Visibility: The Minimalistic All-Rounder The main idea behind this resume template is a paradox- to make your content more visible through a clever use of invisible cues. In other words, this resume template aims to do a lot with little, while following our main design principles (more on those below).Recommended jobs?  Visibility is an jack-of-all-trades resume template, fitting for any type of position  and industry. Whether you’re looking for a job in a corporation or a small company, it will never let you down. Its understated elegance will always stand out without making you look weird or eccentric. Midnight    Midday: The Polar Opposites According to most designer guidelines, a white background allows the reader breathe. On the web, this is a good thing because youre constantly bombarded by visual stimuli. However, when youre choosing a resume template, you want to make hiring managers lose their breath.  Midnights black background does just that. Midnight catches attention like no other resume template. And then, ehm, blends into the background. In the end, its black background doesnt diminish the readability of the resume. As soon as a hiring manager gets sucked in, it becomes almost imperceptible. Midday  is a different beast entirely- the polar opposite of Midnight.  For the most formal types of jobs, you want to exhibit a certain decorum and stick to white colour. Still,  Midday  absorbs  the reader by creating a negative space. Notice how the black header accentuates the body of this resume template. It attracts attention by emphasising the emptiness of white space. After all, this is the main strength of all minimalistic resume templates. Recommended jobs?  Managerial and executive positions.  Midnight and Midnight both exude dominance and unwavering self-confidence. Exactly the qualities a candidate for these jobs would want to communicate. Ladder: The Conservative Overachiever Ladder  is one of those minimalistic resume templates that simply get the job done and not much beyond that. It catches a hiring managers attention but never tries to impress- it stays close to the ground no matter what. And for certain types of jobs, its exactly what you want to aim for. For this reason, we recommend sticking to a subdued colour palette. Naturally, youre always welcome to experiment but this resume template works the best when it retains its nearly drab visual. If you really want to play to its strengths, pick a nice  serif  font to go with it. Recommended jobs?  Accounting, Backend Development, Law Enforcement, legal positions, and the like. What are our resume template design principles? Good design always involves a bit of alchemy -  that elusive ingredient which turns the whole into more than the sum of its parts. And from our experience, the magic happens when we follow these essential principles: Maximum readability. All fonts for our resume templates are carefully selected to allow for effortless reading. We know that even a great book, when printed in a terrible font, can be impossible to finish. Clarity. Hiring managers have painfully short attention spans. For this reason, our resume templates need to visually guide the eye towards the most important parts. Individuality. You want your resume to stand out. We make sure to provide you with a portfolio of striking designs suitable for every industry. Customisation. This is the most difficult part. We always aim to create resume templates that look good in combination with the widest array of fonts and colours, so you can adjust them to the needs of each job application. Customisation is where YOU come into play. Be careful to keep your minimalistic resume templates minimalistic. Were always careful to equip every resume template with a selection of fitting fonts. Many users simply roll with the default resume preset and forget about the customisation options they have at their disposal. Changing fonts in your resume is a piece of cake. Simply navigate the menu at the left side of your screen and pick the font you like the best. In spite of being easy, you should always be careful not to overdo it. doesnt support Comic Sans but if you try hard enough, you can ruin your resume equally well. In the end, fonts and colours are important. Look at how a resume changes its vibe based on the choice of fonts and colours alone. Keep in mind that in both cases we used the same  Midnight  template. The first variant gives a  formal impression. Blue headings in combination with a  serif  font make the owner of this resume seem professional, albeit slightly conservative. Its a resume which inspires confidence above else. The second variant looks sleeker and more modern. Yellow headings in combination with a sans-serif  font make this resume seem more energetic and unconventional. All of that while maintaining its original rock-solid feel. Minimalistic resume templates built to be used straight out of the box. If you decide to make adjustments to a resume template, make sure you know what youre doing. A well-aimed modification can tailor your resume to the conventions of a particular company and increase your chances of getting hired. If youre not sure, however, you can never go wrong by using a  default  preset. Our minimalistic resume templates are built to be ready to use straight out of the box and no alterations are usually necessary. Finally, dont forget that making your resume look good is only part of success. In the end, the visual needs to play in unison with content to maximise your chances of getting hired.

They Know Youre Old The Second They See Your Resume

They Know Youre Old The Second They See Your Resume They Know Youre Old The Second They See Your Resume INBOX: “Jewel, Can you take a look at my detailed resume? It’s 5 pages long and goes back to 1988, but there’s some really important experience on there.” In a word, “No!” Age discrimination is a real thing. It victimizes people every day. However, sometimes candidates victimize themselves. If you’re in corporate America, literally no one will be willing to take a look at a 5-page resume. And it’s important to avoid some other key mistakes that will also have them trashing your resume the very 1st second. Your Resume Is A Dissertation I know this is hard. I know this emotional. I know this is your professional life story. For all those reasons, it’s hard to part with information. But it has to be deleted. It simply must. 20 years is the absolute longest you can present. There is no job ad that even calls for that much experience. You have to shorten the story and deliver the highest impact 1st in order to move through the process. Here’s the way to think about this: what’s your ultimate goal? To express your details from 1990, or to get your resume read in the 1st place? In my professional opinion, your 1st and only objective is to make sure the person on the receiving end wants to open your file. They won’t open it if it’s 5 MB â€" remember: everybody’s reading everything on their phones now. You’re Presenting A Job From 30 Years Ago, Because It Shows Something “Different” About You Once you do get them to open your resume, don’t wave the red flag that you’re old. Sometimes that happens in an effort to present different facets of your experience from different times in your professional trajectory. However, sometimes efforts to show experience simply add up to “old.” For example, I recently had an attorney who today is a law firm partner, but started off as a teacher. His teaching job was 38 years ago. It’s important to adopt the recruiter’s perspective here: what is he really learning about you? It’s unlikely the person is saying to himself, “Oh, look at that, well, he has this teaching experience in his background!” It’s must more likely the recruiter is thinking, “OK, let me do some quick math here.” Your LinkedIn Profile URL Is Missing This is either because you’re not on LinkedIn (which is a HUGE mistake that’s killing your job search) or you simply didn’t present your LinkedIn profile URL. However, this is critical information that cannot be skipped. When a person receives your resume, before they pick up the phone, they look up your LinkedIn profile. If you cause any barriers to that, they’re going to move past you to the next person. You can’t claim to be tech savvy or comfortable with technology, but have a missing LinkedIn URL. Similarly, you can’t claim to be familiar with social media and have a bare bones LinkedIn profile. The millennials you’re competing with are firmly planted on LinkedIn. More importantly, the millennials making the hiring decision are searching LinkedIn to fill open positions. Making sure your resume is set up properly so you can fight ageism is step 1. Step 2 is knowing where to find the right opportunities, and step 3 centers on talking to the right people, so you don’t have to deal with your resume just getting sucked into the Internet black hole. Learn how to do this the right way so you don’t waste time. We walk you through it in our free presentation, “How To Get Hired In HALF The Time Without Getting Ghosted Because Of Age Discrimination!” And we give you the exact language to say when the millennial HR manager tells you that you’re overqualified.

Learn What the Role of Music Agent Is

Learn What the Role of Music Agent Is Learn What the Role of Music Agent Is In the narrow definition of the word, a music agent is a person who is responsible for booking shows for bands. Agents, more broadly, also approach promoters about shows, negotiate contracts for live performances and basically make sure the wheels of a concert tour, or just a single show, turn smoothly. An agent will work with a promoter to make sure that everything a band needs will be at the venue, that there is an appropriate soundcheck period set aside for the band, and of course, what the payment will be for the performance and if the accommodation  will be provided by the promoter. Want only red MMs backstage? Your agent is the one who will make sure the promoter knows. Music agents, also called booking agents or  talent agents, make live music happen. A good agent with well-placed connections can get a band in front of the right audience and increase their profile. Agents work closely with promoters and record labels to make sure the bands on their books get the proper exposure.   Responsibilities of a Music Agent While the level of responsibility for a music agent may differ depending on the visibility of band theyre working with, the basic tasks remain the same whether booking club shows for a smaller indie band or an arena show for a major label act. Agents tasks include: Liaising with bands/labels/management to agree on a window for tour dates, the financial and logistic requirements of the tour, and the goals of the tour (eg, promote a new album).Contacting promoters and venues to pitch bands and agree on performance dates.Arranging contracts with promoters regarding pay, rider, guest list and equipment. Pay Rate for a Music Agent Music agents typically earn a percentage of the proceeds from a tour or performance. The amount is limited to the actual payments for performances and does not usually include money earned from merchandise sales sold at shows, such as T-shirts or CDs. The most common arrangement gives the agent 10-15% of the money paid to a band for a gig, though 18% or even 20% is not unheard of. Thus, its obviously in the agents best interest to secure the most money possible for a band from a promoter - the more money the band makes, the more money the agent makes. What a Good Agent Can Do for a Band Music agents hold the key to the good shows, and as an up and coming band, a good agent on your side can mean playing in front of bigger audiences sooner than you probably would by booking your own gigs. If you sign with an agent who works with larger bands, youll have the inside track on getting the support slot on tours with these larger bands. Music agents also have the ear of all the good promoters, which means you have an immediate foot in the door with venues and promoters instead of having to convince them to give you a shot. Agents likewise have the pull to get you more money than you could on your own. Contracting an Agent A contract will help fend off any misunderstandings down the road and will also lay out what the musicians expect of the agent and the agent expects of the band. You wont be fighting about money or arguing over who was supposed to arrange for a drum kit if everything is documented on paper. How to Become a Music Agent Approach established agencies and seek an internship; youll make great contacts and learn the ropes from the pros. Or if youre a real go-getter, try your hand at booking gigs independently. If youre interested in building your own agency from the ground up, look to friends who are in bands and start out booking local shows for them. Make use of those contacts to expand to booking with promoters outside of your area. Be prepared to put in long hours for little pay (or no pay) while you proving yourself.

Designated Market Area and Media

Designated Market Area and Media Designated Market Area and Media The acronym DMA is an abbreviation for a designated market area, as used in the media industry. Nielsen Media Research,  a leading research firm based in New York City, measures audience viewership that indirectly  determines whether or not shows are canceled or extended. Nielsen uses DMAs when compiling their ratings. They then generate Nielsen ratings for television stations across the country. What Is a DMA? A DMA is a region or territory where people get the same television and radio options. They are often linked by major metropolitan cities, but in rural areas, can be combined. Nielsen divides the country into 210 DMAs. These areas represent 210 television media markets. DMAs are more than just cities. For instance, the Philadelphia DMA encompasses not just the city, but all areas where Philadelphia stations are watched the most. The Philadelphia DMA includes southern New Jersey and most of Delaware. Because of that, a Philadelphia TV station would want to cover news across the DMA and not just in the city. It would try to sell advertising to companies throughout the area. Territory Division Determinants Every county in the U.S. is in a DMA. Some DMAs cover a huge geographical area, like the Salt Lake City DMA, which stretches across the entire state of Utah. Others are geographically small, like the Providence DMA, because of all the nearby New England cities with their own stations. The deciding factor in determining which DMA Nielsen assigns a county comes down to viewing habits. If more than 50 percent of homes in a county watch Baltimore TV stations, then the county is assigned to the Baltimore DMA. Thats true even if the county is geographically closer to another city, like Washington, DC. Occasionally, Nielsen will shift a county from one DMA to another. Maybe people in an example county suddenly get Washington, DC stations on their cable system and decide theyd rather watch the news from the nations capital than from Baltimore. Once more than 50 percent of homes watch DC television more than Baltimore TV, Nielsen will move the county into the Washington, DC DMA. Nielsen publishes an annual list of DMAs by audience size. In 2019, New York was the leading DMA, with Los Angeles coming in second. DMAs and the Internet The rise of the Internet and alternatives to traditional television and radio has impacted DMAs. Many people use online streaming services to watch their favorite shows or use paid subscription radio instead of what is available publicly in their DMA. With growing portions of the audience turning away from the standard communications, particularly millennials, DMAs and Nielson ratings have seen significant changes in their numbers. Currently, Nielson is adapting its ratings systems to account for television streaming and network radio to get a more accurate count, which will impact how advertisers purchase air-time. Advertising Cost Differential DMA or media market information is important for businesses and consumers. The size of the DMA and the activity of the audience determines the costs of advertising. For instance, a commercial on a television station in New York City will cost much more than a commercial purchased to air on a station in Lancaster, PA.
