3 things to do when youre unprepared for a meeting

3 things to do when youre unprepared for a meeting3 things to do when youre unprepared for a meetingWhetherbei a last-minute meeting pops up halfway through the day, or you simply forgot about one until two minutes before its scheduled to start, being unprepared for one can be a startling feeling.Here are three tips to use when you find yourself in this situation.Think about these three questions ahead of timeAfter writing about being caught unprepared in a meeting with the vice president of her company - and then, how she got back on her feet at the moment with a managers help - career coach and writer Abby Wolfe writes about these questions in The Muse.She explains why you should pose these specific questions to yourself before every work meeting1) Whats my role?2) What do I need to bring?3) What do I want to get out of it?Boiling things down to these three topics can help you get ahead.Figure out who youre meeting withAuthorKevin Daum writes in Inc. that you should research the attendees in an article about how productive people prepare for meetings.There is no real excuse today for not knowing the people with whom you are meeting. Whether its a one on one or a conference table of 10, you should have some idea of who is at the table. Get a list of attendees and Google each one. Check out their Linkedin profile and perhaps even look at them on Facebook to understand who they are and what they bring to the conversation. The time spent up front will not only save time on introductions, but it will give you powerful insights should conflict occur, he writes.Do this if you werent paying attention in the meetingThis can be really embarrassing, but luckily, there are ways to save face.Doing things like preparing for what could happen during the meeting as much as possible, politely saying that you dont have anything else to add (if you dont), and talking about what you do know can really come in handy.

Key Person Clause Essentials in a Recording Contract

Key Person Clause Essentials in a Recording Contract Key Person Clause Essentials in a Recording Contract The key person clause that appears in a lot of record contracts inspires a certain amount of fear among musicians and prompts some music business lawyers to spend a lot of time (and your money) getting rid of it. But it may not be as bad as it seems. What Is a Key Member Clause? A key member clause in a record deal  (sometimes known as a key person clause) is a clause that states that if a member of the group who is considered to be critical to the overall sound, style, or identity of the group decides to leave, the record label can claim breach of contract, which can result in its cancellation. Often, with this cancellation, the label also discontinues active promotion of the bands earlier releases. In other words, you and whats left of your band are back on the street. While this repercussion may seem pretty major, theres more than one way of looking at it. The Good News for Musicians This contract feature cuts both ways for musicians. Although the clause gives the label an out if they want to drop you if a key member leaves, it also offers some level of protection. With the key person clause in place, the label cant easily use the sudden departure of your sometimes xylophone player as a reason to cancel your whole deal  because theyve implicitly admitted that the departure of the  xylophone player was not a serious concern. If she were, they would have named her as a key person in the contract.   Everything Is Negotiable Another point that musicians sometimes miss when dealing with the key member clause is that just because its in the contract doesnt mean the label will enforce it. When the Kronos Quartet signed its first contract with Nonesuch Records, the label identified both the first violinist, the groups founder, and the cellist, who was extraordinarily talented, young, and beautiful, as key persons. Some years later, the cellist left the group for health reasons. But the label not only didnt cancel the contract, they renewed it. Why? Because the group was critically acclaimed, commercially successful and found other excellent cellists to replace the departed original member. The Label Isnt out to Get You Sometimes musicians get a little paranoid about their record company and they assume that the company is somehow out to get them. But record company execs arent inherently evil, at least not most of them. Theyre simply trying to manage their companies profitably. If theres some way that the impact of the departure of a key person can be lessened, most labels will go along with the group and, as with the Kronos Quartet when they lost their original cellist, wont enforce the clause.   Taking the Sting out of the Key Person Clause When one or two members of a group are designated as key persons in the recording contract, it can provoke not only fear of the label but also resentment by other band members. Why arent they key persons, too? In some instances, groups have solved this problem by asking the record company to include all group members as key persons in the contract. While this may not seem like a good idea now the label has cause to drop the group if anyone leaves it may be a viable solution. Just because it has a contractual right, the labels not going to drop the group if someone they dont consider essential leaves, and it solves the ego-problem. Youre all key members!

3 Best Commencement Speech Career Lessons - The Muse

3 Best Commencement Speech Career Lessons - The Muse 3 Best Commencement Speech Career Lessons Graduation day’s right around the corner, which means various successful people will be delivering commencement speeches. And while their target audience may be 22-year-olds, they’re often doling out their very best advice- which can help anyone, at any stage in their career. Whether you’re not exactly sure what you want to do or struggling to define success for yourself, here are three great lessons to remember: 1. You Might Want to Change Fields, So Focus on Skills Sally Krawcheck, CEO and co-founder of Ellevest wrote a letter to herself at 22 in which she advised being open to opportunities, rather than following the crowd: At this early stage of your career, there’s a real temptation to go into a field of work because your friends are or because it’s ‘hot’. But there’s also an enormously small likelihood that it will still be hot 10, 20, 30, 40 years from now. So, rather than wedding yourself to an industry, instead shift your focus to gaining experiences and learning as much as you can, so that you build transferrable skills. At first glance, this advice is kind of scary: Wouldn’t it be easier if you could just pick one career and know that would be the path for you? As those of us with a few more years of experience know, not all jobs are what they appear to be. (And even if they are, you might find that they’re just not the right fit for you.) When you focus on gaining skills, you’re setting yourself up for advanced opportunities in your industry- as well as others that you might find of greater interest down the road. Related: How I Successfully Transitioned From Teaching Kindergarten to Working at Apple 2. Even Successful People Fail (Big) Oprah Winfrey’s 2013 commencement address at Harvard University was inspired by the initial (terrible) reviews of her OWN network. She said, “What could I possibly say to Harvard graduates, some of the most successful graduates in the world in the very moment when I had stopped succeeding?” And so, she settled on the topic of failure: It doesn’t matter how far you might rise. At some point you are bound to stumble because if you’re constantly doing what we do, raising the bar. If you’re constantly pushing yourself higher, higher, the law of averages, not to mention the Myth of Icarus, predicts that you will at some point fall. And when you do I want you to know this, remember this: There is no such thing as failure. Failure is just life trying to move us in another direction. There are lots of sayings about falling down, brushing yourself off, and trying again. You heard them throughout youth sports, and you’ll hear them throughout your life. But there are two things about Oprah’s advice that are especially worth noting- failure can happen at any time, and to anyone. The first point is important because if you’ve only read stories about people who kick off their careers with screw-ups, you may be concerned if you fail as a mid-level or senior professional. But setbacks- as well as learning and recovering from them- can happen at any time. Second, I love her emphasis on super achievers. If you mess up, it’s easy to think that if you were only smarter, more productive, or more visionary it wouldn’t have happened. But- take it from Oprah- messing up big time happens even to those you’d least expect. So, don’t be too hard on yourself, and instead start looking for ways to redirect your energy. Related: 19 Successful People Explain Why Failure Is the Key to Success 3. Be True to Yourself In his famous commencement address at Stanford, Steve Jobs advised students to listen to themselves: Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma- which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. A lot of people will have opinions about your career- and not just at your graduation party. Yes, your parents and friends and mentors have well-intentioned (and sometimes super valuable) advice to impart. But in the end, it’s your career. Maybe no one understands why you’d want to leave your steady job or how you could even consider quitting without a back-up plan. If you’re reeling from a difficult conversation, remember, Steve Jobs thinks you should do what you think is best. When your social media feed fills with the latest graduation speeches next month, don’t just scroll past them or forward them to your old intern. Check them out: They just may contain the advice you need right now to advance in your career.

How to Ensure Your Promotion Ahead of Review Time

How to Ensure Your Promotion Ahead of Review Time How to Ensure Your Promotion Ahead of Review Time Have you been working hard lately - putting in long hours, picking up extra projects and helping your boss with their workload? Have you been constantly going over the top for your co-workers and managers? You feel you are deserving of a raise or promotion, but it’s not review time - so does that mean you have to wait for your annual review before you can get a promotion? Most companies typically give employees raises and promotions during their review season, but we’ve been wondering: Is it possible to secure a promotion ahead of review time? For employees who are looking to get to that next level in their career, we spoke with Career Coach Angela Copeland of Copeland Coaching to hear her advice on how employees can ensure they get a promotion before  it’s review time! Copeland says it’s often easiest to secure a promotion during review season, but doesn’t think it’s impossible to secure one in advance. How do you do that? Think about your goals at the company and what you can do to prepare yourself for the next step. If you want to be a manager, consider how that role is different than your current one and what skills or experiences your boss would want to see you have. The more you take on new projects or responsibilities, the more likely you are to grow and gain new, valuable skills to prepare you for a bigger role. If your boss sees you taking on new challenges and asking for more work to do or constantly helping your co-workers, it helps keep you at the front of their mind when they start thinking about review season. If you are seeking a promotion, Copeland says you need to pay attention to your expectations so you don’t get your hopes up about a raise or promotion . While it is possible to secure one ahead of time, Copeland points out that you should not raise your expectations ahead of time because you might not know what makes the most sense for the company financially. “I hear from many employees who feel that their employer should pay them more for their existing work because they feel undervalued for their great work,” says Copeland. “Even in the situations where this may be true, this is a tough case to make. It’s very rare that any employer is motivated to pay an existing employee more and give them a better title to do the same job and the same work they already do today.” While it’s fine to plan ahead and start setting yourself up to get promoted, you don’t want to set your expectations so high, only to find out the company is not able to promote you right now because of their financials. How exactly can you secure your promotion ahead of time? When considering whom to promote, your manager is going to look for the employees who have potential for future success, or seem interested in growing their personal career at the company. First things first: make sure you boss knows your goals and how you envision your career path at the company. “If your manager doesn’t know your ultimate goal of rising up the corporate ladder and you do great work at your current job, you may be overlooked,” notes Copeland. “It’s important to communicate with your manager about your long term goals, so they can be your advocate.” Moreover, keep in mind that the job market is competitive - and so are your co-workers! If you want to secure a promotion, you’ve got to be on top of things.  While there’s no guarantee, the best course of action is to be an all-star, team player that stands out among your co-workers. “A-players are employees that align their work to their company’s core goals. Very often, these goals are connected to very basic targets such as generating incremental revenue,” advises Copeland. “Managers want to promote employees who are generating more for the company than what is expected. They want to promote employees who are proactively taking on increased and different responsibilities. They want to promote employees they want to keep.” Lastly, Copeland points out that, when it comes time for your performance review , take the time to do more than the minimum required and take a proactive approach to the review process. Rather than waiting for your boss to tell you how you did and whether or not you are getting promoted, be more proactive! “In many companies, you have an opportunity to give yourself a self-evaluation first. Take it! And, on top of reviewing yourself inside the company review system, try putting together a presentation about why you think you did great,” suggests Copeland. “Many review systems limit you to text, but a presentation allows you to include photos, graphs, and charts. You would put this much time into any other project you’re working on. Why wouldn’t you put extra time into your own career progression? It impacts your future roles and how much you make!” If you’re looking to secure a promotion ahead of review time, focus on aligning your goals with the main goals of the company and be proactive about communicating with your boss, both about your goals and your performance. By doing so, you’ll stand out as the employee everyone wants to keep around and have on his or her team. If you can keep that on their minds, you’ll likely earn a promotion come review time!

Study Exercise, eating healthily could improve thinking skills

Study Exercise, eating healthily could improve thinking skills Study Exercise, eating healthily could improve thinking skills Some of us really dread waking up early to spend a half hour on the treadmill. But we’re constantly told how important it is to exercise, and a new study only reinforces that fact.Published in the journal Neurology, the study measured how people with cognitive impairments reacted to an aerobic exercise routine or diet over a six-month period. Starting out, all of the participants had thinking skills akin to those of someone in their 90s, according to Time. They were randomly assigned to groups who took up exercise, ate in line with the DASH diet, did both, or did neither (the control group was put into “health education”).Over six months, those who both exercised and ate healthily showed the largest positive change; their thinking skills improved by nine years. Those who exercised alone also benefited, though not as remarkably.“This is not necessarily a cure, but there is currently no pharmaceutical intervention for preventing dementia,” James Blumenthal, the study’s auth or, told Time. “So a starting point of improving lifestyle with exercise and perhaps diet in this group of people can have important implications down the road for their overall wellbeing.”Though promising, these results should not come as a huge surprise. Research has long suggested that exercise can improve our creativity and health. So if we want to keep our brains activated, it’s time to hit the gym - even if our beds feel so much more comfortable at 6 a.m.

Conquer your Hiring Challenges with a Talent Pipeline

Conquer your Hiring Challenges with a Talent Pipeline Conquer your Hiring Challenges with a Talent Pipeline Conquer your Hiring Challenges with a Talent Pipeline Conlan Do you struggle to stay ahead of hiring demands? If so, a talent pipeline provides a proactive approach to manage current and future staffing needs. A well-stocked talent pipeline can generate multiple benefits: - Identify the talent youll need in advance Insure your new hires are a better fit Improve your employee retention rates While it requires a bit of front-end work, a well-planned talent pipeline is likely to pay off in the long run. It doesnt take a million dollars, but it does take investments in time and conversations, says Natasha Stough, Americas director of campus recruiting at EY, a professional services firm headquartered in London. Heres how to get it right. Set your Hiring Strategy The first step in the process: align your talent-pipeline strategy with your overall business strategy. This will identify your real hiring needs. For example, does your company expect an increased hiring demand and theability to respond quickly? Does it plan to acquire other companies? What roles will be key in those scenarios? Stough works with EYs leaders to better understand the external marketplace and internal challenges. Business needs are changing, and its critical that we are aligned with the business to anticipate those changes, she says. So much of recruiting, particularly entry-level hiring, is done one to two years in advance, so its important to understand the direction the business is moving in. Assess Hiring Needs Once youve identified your companys direction and how your talent pipeline will support it, its time to determine where your talent pool is now and where it needs to be. Start by identifying key talent in the organization who can take on a larger role. Thenactively develop them for the future, says Melanie Lundberg, assistant vice president of talent management and corporate communications at Combined Insurance, a Chubb company, based in Glenview, Illinois. Assess these high-potential candidates carefully, experts say. Its a determination of all capabilities, says Brannigan Thompson, senior vice president for talent, organization and leadership development at Voya Financial, based in New York City. Its not just the skills but also the behavioral component as well. Its both what theyll do and how theyll do it. High-quality tech-based assessment tools can provide objective, data-driven reports of employees current competencies and potential for growth, she says. Develop your Workforce Your strongest asset when developing a talent pipeline is your current employees. After all, they are a proven fit and understand your business. You also know the skills they need to take on new responsibilities. Now is the time to coach them through some growth. Companies with a strong company culture that promotes feedback will find this easier to do, experts say. People tend to be afraid of hearing about themselves, especially about their shortcomings, Thompson says. To address this challenge, Voya relies on objective assessment data to help employees understand where their development points are, and fosters a culture of feedback. It also allows employees to learn from failure. We make it clear that its OK to make mistakes as long as youre learning from them, correcting them and then forgetting them, he says. While Looking Externally to Fill Gaps There will be roles that your internal employees arent ready to take on or that they may not be interested in. In those cases youll need to hire from outside. Its important to find both the skills and cultural fit so your new hires can hit the ground running, Thompson says. The best way to attract qualified talent is to create a compelling, authentic and distinctive employer brand, says Kevin Keohane, director of brand and talent strategy at PartnersCreative, an advertising agency in Missoula, Montana. Keohane suggests using social media recruiting to establish a presence in specialized interest spaces (such as online tech discussion boards.) Another option is to develop a recruiting relationship with academic institutions. When youre getting it right, you are attracting smaller numbers of perfectly qualified candidates and developing your own people so they are growing with the business, Keohane says. Leverage Current Employees A brandful workforce is essential to build up your talent pipeline, Stough says. Employees can provide real-life information about what its like to work at your company; their friends and former colleagues are also likely to be a good fit. Make it clear to employees that you welcome their efforts to be brand ambassadors. Encourage them to share behind-the-scenes social media posts about what its like to work at your company. In addition, referral programs that reward employees for tapping their networks for potential hires can spark interest. Keep an Eye on the Future Remind hiring managers and department leaders about the importance of taking the long view when assessing talent. Encourage them to think months and years in advance when hiring and developing employees. And be sure to keep them up to date on how your business strategy may impact hiring. At Voya, managers are accountable for talent pipelines Thompson says. Theyre required to have a succession plan in place to continually identify who will fill key roles and what they need to get there. We spend a tremendous amount of time internally developing leadership and criteria, as well as the courses and paths that employees can take to learn more, he says. A talent pipeline can help your company prepare for talent needs, including those you plan for as well as unexpected hires. Its one of the most effective ways to conquer your staffing challenges.

Health Care Directive FAQ - Ireland

Health Care Directive FAQ - Ireland Health Care Directive FAQ - Ireland Healthcare Directive BasicsI'm getting older. What documents should I have in place?If you are getting older or if you have dependants, there are three documents you should prepare to help your loved ones manage your affairs. Advance Healthcare Directive: Your Advance Healthcare Directive (also called a Living Will) is used to appoint someone to make healthcare decisions for you and describes any medical treatment preferences you may have in the event you are no longer able to communicate or are incapable of giving consent. Power of Attorney: Your Power of Attorney grants authority over your personal and financial decision making to someone you trust in case you become unable to communicate or incapable of giving consent. A Power of Attorney may also be used to grant full or limited powers over your financial affairs when you will be travelling or otherwise unavailable. Last Will: Your Last Will describes how to distribute your estate after you die. What is an Advance Healthcare Directive?An Advance Healthcare Directive, also called a living will, sets out in writing your wishes for your medical care and treatment. It may also name a person to make sure those wishes are carried out. Usually, an Advance Healthcare Directive contains specific directions on the use of life-sustaining treatments and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). It may also specify treatments you do not want to receive in certain circumstances. What is the difference between a Last Will and an Advance Healthcare Directive?A Last Will is used to distribute your property after your death. An Advance Healthcare Directive allows you to specify, in writing, your healthcare preferences for the time when you no longer have capacity to provide consent. A Last Will cannot be used to specify what type of medical treatment you want. Why do I require an Advance Healthcare Directive?Should you suffer from an accident or illness, you may not be able to communicate the type of treatment you wish to receive. In such circumstances, your healthcare provider and your family will be obliged to guess what your healthcare wishes are. However, if you have signed an Advance Healthcare Directive, your healthcare wishes will be clear and no guess work will be required. Do I need a lawyer to create an Advance Healthcare Directive?No. An Advance Healthcare Directive can be created without the assistance of a lawyer. Do I need an Advance Healthcare Directive if I already have a last will and testament?Yes. Advance Healthcare Directives and last wills are very different. Your last will and testament deals with the distribution of property after your death. In contrast, an Advance Healthcare Directive deals with your healthcare and applies when you are alive and cannot communicate your wishes. Will my healthcare provider be obliged to follow the instructions in my Advance Healthcare Directive?An Advance Healthcare Directive that is valid and applicable to specific treatment is legally binding and doctors are legally bound to follow its instructions. However, a person cannot demand treatment that is unnecessary. How long will an Advance Healthcare Directive last?An Advance Healthcare Directive will last until the time of your death unless you have revoked it sooner. The Directive-MakerWho is the directive-maker?The directive-maker is the person who will be requiring someone else to act for him or her. The directive-maker must be an adult. The directive-maker must be of sound mind and capable of making his or her own decisions at the time the Advance Healthcare Directive is executed (signed). Can anyone be a directive-maker?Anybody who is mentally capable and who is 18 years of age or older may make an Advance Healthcare Directive for themselves. The Designated Healthcare RepresentativeWho is the designated healthcare representative?The person appointed by the directive-maker is called the designated healthcare representative. The designated healthcare representative is the person who acts for the directive-maker in the event the directive-maker is no longer able to communicate his or her wishes. Who cannot act as my designated healthcare representative?Your designated healthcare representative should not be: someone who is mentally incapable; someone who is under 18 years of age; someone who is caring for you in return for payment; an owner/operator of the residential or healthcare facility where you are living; or an employee of an operator of the residential or healthcare where you are living. Who should I choose to act as my designated healthcare representative?Ensure that you choose an individual whom you trust and whom you feel comfortable sharing your wishes. It is not necessary to choose a healthcare representative who shares all your beliefs, however you should choose an individual whom you are confident will respect your wishes and who will do his/her best to get the type of healthcare treatment you want. It is important to choose a healthcare representative who will be available when required to make your healthcare decisions. There may come a time where you require someone to remain by your bedside for long stretches of time to ensure healthcare personnel follow your wishes. Under these circumstances, it may not be practical to have a representative who resides out of town. You should discuss your healthcare wishes with your designated healthcare representative to ensure that he or she will be able to make decisions based on what you have discussed and the information contained in the directive. Do I need to appoint an alternative healthcare representative?You do not need to appoint an alternative healthcare representative however it is a good safeguard. Should your original representative be unable or unwilling to act on your behalf, your alternative representative could act for you instead. When will my representative be allowed to make my healthcare decisions?Your representative can only make your healthcare decisions after a doctor has determined that you are not capable of making or communicating responsible healthcare decisions for yourself. TerminologyWhat is life-sustaining treatment?Life-sustaining treatment is treatment which replaces, or supports, a bodily function which is not operating properly or failing. Where someone has a treatable condition, life sustaining treatments can be used temporarily until the body can resume its normal function again. However, sometimes the body will never regain that function. What is cardio pulmonary resuscitation (CPR)??Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is an emergency manoeuvre which is applied directly to the chest of a person whose heart has stopped. It manually preserves brain function until further measures can be taken to restore regular blood circulation and breathing. Organ DonationCan I specify organ donation in my Advance Healthcare Directive?Yes. You may specify whether you want to donate certain organs or all organs.Modification and RevocationCan I change or alter my Advance Healthcare Directive?If you wish to alter the directions in your Advance Healthcare Directive or appoint a different designated healthcare representative, you should destroy all copies of the directive and create a brand new directive. Remember that your directive should always reflect your current wishes. Also, ensure that you provide a copy of your new directive to your designated healthcare representative, your physician and anyone else you have selected to share it with. Can I revoke my Advance Healthcare Directive?If you wish to revoke your Advance Healthcare Directive, the best way to do so is by destroying all copies of the directive and notifying your healthcare provider of your decision. You may also revoke your directive by informing your attending physician or healthcare provider that you wish to revoke your directive. Generally, a revocation of an Advance Power of Attorney will only be accepted if the revocation was made while the directive-maker was of sound mind. Signing DetailsWhat should I do with my Advance Healthcare Directive once it has been properly signed and witnessed?You should discuss your Advance Healthcare Directive with your designated healthcare representative, your family and your family physician. Additionally, you should provide these parties a copy of your directive. Are there any other witnessing formalities?Both of your witnesses must watch you sign, or they must both be present when you acknowledge your signature. Also, your witnesses must watch each other sign.
