(My apologies for the camera jitters; there was no place to perch my arm while I held the digital camera.)

Stephen Covey (8th Habit, p42) was profoundly changed after he read the following quote atrributed to Viktor E. Frankl.

He followed it with a quote from R.D. Laing where he says our failure to notice this space kills our ability to change.

The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds.

Jamie Sams (Sacred Path Cards, p323) says that

"our Sacred Space means that you consider your body, feelings, and possessions sacred and will not allow others to abuse them. ... If you allow others to be destructive in our Savred Space, on some level you don't have the guts to be disliked. It is not important to be liked by others, but it is important to be able to live with yourself. Happiness begins within.

(You need your Sacred Space to know what is true for you and what you need to do.)

Choice and decision making requires that you be informed.

My invocation prior to our luncheon in the Caucus Room of the Cannon Building in Washington, D.C. on Friday, July 11, 2008 at the close of the NCDA 2008 Global Conference.

However we may choose to experience, appreciate, and express our spiritual nature that is rooted in our unqiueness, our life story, our culture, faith tradition, the practice or non practice of a specific religion, or simply our awareness of an essence many refer to as God, but somehow connects all of us as humanity, as we now come together to break bread - Bless the food we are about to eat, that it may nourish our bodies for the work that needs to be done, Bless the hands that prepared it and now serve it.

We ask for wisdom of mind and heart that we learn to honor our sameness and at the same time celebrate our diversity.

Let us form effective alliances based in integrity and right relationships that give fruits to important insights and appropriate advocacy that promotes and delivers excellent career development for all people across career and life roles and throughout their life span and doing this in ways that support peoples fullest potential and contributions of their unique talents to their families, communities, our nation and our planet.

We seek to accomplish greatness in the work we do, with a humble spirit and firmly grounded in gratitude.

Let us now enjoy our most delicious and excellent lunch.

The Job Juggler course has a lot of great information that can help me guide my clients through the job search process.  For example, the motivation of reminding them the most successful job search strategies are not just looking for jobs in the classifieds or online, but actually knocking on employers doors, networking with friends and family, asking for jobs leads, and looking in the yellow pages.  People need to know what they want in life for a career. I can remind them that there are many career assessments available either online or at the local one stops, high schools or colleges.  Along with learning about their interests, finding a mentor, would be a good idea. The job juggler explains this quite nicely and gives a lot of information about mentoring programs. Job Juggler also suggests doing an informal interview with employers to learn more about the careers so that job seekers can make sure that it is the career they want to go into.  This is a very helpful section and I find it very useful for my clients.

 Job Juggler has information explaining what employers most value in skills for their employees, the knowledge skills: planning, acquiring, searching and organizing.  This is good to know when creating resumes.  This is another area that the Job Juggler has great information and I shall use with my clients when creating resumes.  Job Juggler explains the three different types of resumes along with tips on when one would use the resumes and why one would use that resume.  Another great piece of information that Job Juggler informs us on is the portfolio.  That section is very informational and is very motivational for clients  who just recently graduated from college and are looking for employment.  I will be using this information for my recent graduates. The Job Juggler has a lot of informational tips for job searching/resume writing/interviewing.  It is a great resource for clients, job counselors, employers, and employees to use.  I would recommend the information I gained from this to all my clients and will continue to use the information while I work with my clients. 

Job Counselor 2, Private Industry Council

The Job Juggler e-course had made changes to my professional and personal life.   I find myself not only changing how I will work with clients and their job search strategies, but also my own resume and job searching.  Completing the learning program has been a very positive experience.

Job Juggler has given me some new teaching strategies as well as wonderful resources that I have not been aware of.  I will be creating a new website resource for my clients.  Currently, there is a sheet created for our clients that contain resources for job search.  I would like to change that form to also include the websites that can help with Resume writing, as well as the other resources that were brought to my attention through the coursework.  

Another change that I will follow up with, is creating an activity folder for clients.  I liked the process that was done in the course work.  I think it makes clients problem-solve for themselves and take more ownership in the job searching process.  I am very excited for the positive change that can occur.

Another teaching tool that I thought was helpful was the CLIMB used in teaching interview skills.  This word association will be great teaching tool. 

Something that will affect my clients and myself was the awareness of  using ASCII for creating resumes and sending them by email.  This was something I was not aware of , and  it will be a great asset.  It is a big concern that when you email a resume to an employer, that the format will change.  Everyone works hard on getting the format to the right structure, and you want to show that to future employers. This also keeps the professional image intact.

Another job searching tool, that will affect my clients and myself will be creating portfolios.  I really didn’t have an understanding of them until I completed this learning session.  Creating a portfolio can really set the job seeker apart from other job seekers.  I also work at a Career Center at a two year college and think this would be a great service we could provide like the college from Florida. 

I always felt that a person needs to keep their resume up to date.  After taking the Job Juggler course, I  find that I am excited to change my format.  I currently have Chronological format and will be changing it to a combination format, that will reflect my skills and accomplishment better.  The Job Juggler course made t he change easy by giving me an outline to start with, and I can adapt my resume from that template.

I have some changes I need to make in my professional and personal life due to the completion of the Job Juggler course.  I was not only given the reason for the changes but also the tools to make those changes successfully.

Great teleclass.  Dan provided some great insights in a clear and easy to understand way. name optional:  Lou Ballester

 

Excellent!  

 

Very interesting, organized and thought provoking. thank you, Constance Stevens

 

Daniel was very forthcoming and a wonderful guest. Sally, you've picked some great guests to interview. I've enjoyed them all. Daniel spun multiple theories together very well - Bolles, Krumboltz, Seligman, etc. - and simply, creatively, organizes the usefulness of each part of the 3-legged stool in the career process. I'm sure the success of the manga format will be quickly realized. I plan to buy it and pass it around to family members and clients.

Thank you for a great hour! Very enjoyable. Mary Lynne 

 

I enjoyed hearing quite a different perspective on career development topics with regard to the six lessons.  Some of which I heard ring true and others that provided me with a dimensional intent that inspires me to think out of the box.  The experience was well worth my time and very convenient.  Thank you. Bernadette Amato 

 

 

An excellent and insightful presentation by one of my favorite authors. Mr. Pink's conversation with us was engaging, energetic, refreshingly counterintuitive. To my way of thinking, that means it was right on! Thank you for providing this opportunity.  Barry Davs

 

I was quite excited to hear directly from Daniel Pink. I read "A Whole New Mind" last year and have always felt that creativity and looking at a problem from multiple viewpoints is generally more productive than  linear model. Still, I do think his ideas seem to be too simplistic and perhaps more media driven than content driven. I am intrigued by Pink's upcoming manga publication, "The Adventures of Johnny Bunco..." and hope that it has something solid to offer the younger generation with regard to career management.  I have a son almost 21 and two nephews in their 20's on whom I will "field test" the graphic novel. I do wish Dan had answered the second part of my question about "A Whole New Mind"--that is, if he re-wrote it in a R-brain manner, wouldn't it have more images and perhaps mind-mapping graphics rather than so much text?  I had other questions to ask about that book, but I'm glad Sally kept us focused on the building a business theme rather than going! off on another direction (which my questions would have done). This was WELL worth the time and effort, and I look forward to participating in other teleinterviews! Damona Sain

 

Helpful and thought provoking.

 

I found his discussion about "monga" /comic books in Japan, very interesting as was his"Six Key things or ideas" needed for a successful career." He's a good  speaker and his "personalization" made his discussion even more interesting and informative. I had heard him speak once before and had previously read one of his earlier books.You made a good choice!! Gil  Benjamin,MCC,NCCC
