Hi Friend
On the run into Christmas,
many businesses are getting a head start on their
marketing for the New Year. Recently we have been
completing a lot of personal and professional
profiles for people and have had many people
comment about how hard it is to write their own.
So this week we look at the reason it is so hard
to write your own profile as well as some traps
to avoid.
We then have a quick Forward with Fairness
update - it seems to be moving forward with
glacial pace.
I then share one of my favourite books just
in time for Christmas, as well as a fascinating
blog post about the power of post-it notes.
Finally we have a great last minute Christmas
gift idea from Wild Dog Designs. Personalised
wine labels - and they start from just $2 a
label!
THIS
WEEK
Professional Profiles:
Why It Is So Hard to Write About
Yourself
Writing your personal or professional profile
is critical in most businesses. But how do you
write one that doesn't make you sound
like a used car salesman or a mathematics
professor?
In this article we look at the reasons why
writing a profile can be very tricky, as well as
the styles to avoid and what to aim for.
ALSO IN THIS
EDITION
HR Tip - Moving Forward With Fairness
Update
Federal Parliament
introduced the Moving Forward With Fairness bill.
But what does that mean for business? What (if
anything) do you need to know right
now?
Book of the Week - The
Intention
Experiment
This is a fascinating book and
worth adding to your Christmas reading list. It
looks at some of the recent scientific evidence
of whether thoughts actually affect the
environment around you.
