We have all had some type of job where we had to do a certain set of tasks in order to help the group or organization be successful. How we perceived the tasks that made up the job may have made the job seem exciting and valuable or dull and boring. Researchers at the University Of Michigan Ross School Of Business have outlined the ideas behind adding value and meaning to one’s job through the practice

“Tell me a time where you…”. Inevitably in any job, internship, or graduate school interview, you will hear these words. You are sitting in a chair facing a recruiter, manager, or professor asking you to share an experience where you displayed a particular emotion, dealt with a problem, or overcame a challenge. Consequently, these types of questions are referred to as “Experiential Questions”.

Every crisis puts consulting fee rates under short-term pressure and changes clients’ long-term views about what constitutes a reasonable price. Will this crisis be any different? So far, so much worse than the past. Whenever we would ask the question prior to the pandemic, we always found that only a small percentage of clients expected consultants’ rates to fall over the short-term future.

Every so often, someone asks me, “How do you write so much?” I don't feel as if I write that much. I have meeting-filled days, just as you do. However, I suspect there's something different about my days: I write for 15 minutes every day. Sometimes, I write longer, but I write for 15 minutes every day. Every day. When I tell the person I write every day, they ask, “Don't you ever get writer's block?

Early in my career at a seminar the facilitators talked about “leading by example.” I asked myself, “What do they really mean by that?” Later a couple of courses it was mentioned. Yet, none of the trainers or facilitators ever specifically said, “Here’s what it means in detail…” So, I made it a quest to learn and define it.

On the plus side, the appraisals usually show that the leaders have strong technical abilities, strategic thinking skills, and business acumen. No problems there. However, these same leaders are frequently leaving trails of wreckage behind them because they are not handling emotions – their own or other people’s – properly.
