Culture Fit
What is Culture Fit? Well the first place you are likely to hear about Culture Fit is when you are recruiting for new staff or being recruited yourself. For instance, Culture Fit Interviews differ from Behavioural Interviews, in that the Behavioural Interview attempts to find out about the candidate’s behaviour, skills, knowledge and experience. Culture Fit Interviews generally do not try to determine the individual’s capability, but rather considers the candidate’s ‘cultural fit’ with the organisation, their values and motivators.
Sales Manager Training Tips: 3 Steps to Hiring Top Performing Salespeople
In a discussion with the head of sales of a mid-sized pharmaceutical company, he wanted to know why some front-line sales managers are much better than others at hiring top performers. Before answering, I asked if he had a systematic hiring process. The reason I asked that is when there is no process in place the ability to select top-performing reps is dependent on the skills of the sales manager. Anytime you create a systematic process you tend be better at predicting success.

“A Positive Look at Media Interviews and A Prescription for Successful Media Interviews”
As you read the headline, I can almost hear some of you asking, “How can there be anything positive about media interviews? I would rather go for a painful visit to my dentist than participate in a media interview.” Well, I want to tell you that in more than 35 years of media interviews in my professional career, I remain positive about media interviews and will share some thoughts with you. And just in case you might believe that all those media interviews were fun & friendly, I can assure you they were not. So you are wondering how to look at media interviews in a positive light and view them as an opportunity to tell your story. Here is my prescription for you.

Accountability, An Essential Element for High Performance
I recently learned a new method for making myself and others more accountable. It is called behavioural contracting and was taught to me by Bob Davies, a trainer and coach based in the U.S. I tried his method and found it highly effective. To make this work you need to have someone, a coach or friend to work with you to form a behavioural contract. Take a look at your one key goal you set for yourself this year, or set one now. My experience is that if we set and focus on one wildly important goal and take action towards achieving it, other areas of our lives or business improve as well.

8 Reasons You Are Not Getting a Job Offer
Are you really too old, too young, overqualified or lacking the right education? Is the deck really stacked against you? Not likely!! Chances are you only need to improve the way you present yourself. Recently, a lady approached me after one of our seminar presentations on Career Management. She had been through 63 job interviews and wanted me to look at her resume to see what was preventing her from getting job offers. Hearing that she had 63 interviews let me know I did not need to look at her resume at all; it was doing an excellent job, getting interviews is the only purpose of a resume. So her problem was not in the resume, but something in her personal presentation.

Behavioural Intelligence – Noticing What Goes on in Meetings
Behaviour is what you say or do. It's not about what you think or feel. As human beings we have a unique brain structure which allows us to separate our behaviour from our feelings. Meetings and interactions at work are one of the places where this behavioural skill is most important and relevant. Behavioural Intelligence is about raising awareness, so that you notice your own and others' behaviour, and make conscious decisions about it.
Behavioural Intelligence – The Subtle Art of Controlling the Conversation
Practising the skills and disciplines of Behavioural Intelligence will give you an almost unfair advantage in meetings, interactions and negotiations. Making a conscious decision on your next behaviour rather than just reacting is the heart of Behavioural Intelligence. Controlling a conversation or meeting with Behavioural Intelligence is a subtle art. It’s not about being dominating and demanding, it’s about noticing what’s happening (or not happening) and choosing a behaviour to advance towards your chosen objectives - and it's very important to recognise the difference between Push and Pull behaviours.
Personal Impact and Influence – Push and Pull on The Conversation Control Map
Behavioural Intelligence is the art of noticing what behaviours are operating in an interaction or conversation, deciding and then choosing the most useful and appropriate behaviour to do next - and you can Push or Pull. Either option could be right or wrong. Behavioural Intelligence means considering the context within which you are operating and making the behavioural choice based on what would best achieve your objectives or desired outcomes.
Nailing A TV Interview
Print interviews are usually the easiest in terms of how you look and carry yourself. Those interviews are generally done over the phone. You could be in bed in your pajamas for all the interviewer knows. The same is often the case with radio. If you’re calling into the show, the interviewer has no idea what you look like, what you’re wearing, and if you’re in your living room or by the pool. Another upside of those types of interviews is that you can write out cheat sheets that you can refer to. But TV is a whole different animal. The following is your TV media appearance drill.
Behavioral Tips and Interview Questions
Today, most employers are using behavioral interviews instead of the traditional personal interviews for selecting the candidates. Behavioral interviews are the interviews where the candidate is given any situation and interviewer will ask the candidate about his reaction if he were in that particular situation. That means, the behavior of the candidate is reviewed in such interviews.
