| are open toed heels business casual: A BRAND New You Austin E. Thompson, Jr., MBA, MPM, 2010-02-19 I took personal pride in composing this book on personal branding with a purpose of reaching entrepreneurs who are interested in enhancing their personal self image in parallel with the image of their businesses, for working professionals who are on the fast track up the corporate ladder and may wish to gain an edge on the competition, and for college students who are preparing for a professional life after their academic journey. Personal branding is not new, but has become increasingly important for many professionals in recent years who seek a competitive advantage over their counterparts to stand out and be noticed among a plethora of talented candidates. This is even more imperative now than a few years ago as we are faced with 10% national unemployment, with over 7 million workers laid off since the recession began back in December 2007. In some U.S. cities, unemployment is over 50%, with the unemployment rate in some states exceeding the national rate. With so many professionals out of work fighting to get re-employed in a job and career commensurate with their skills and education, the task has become increasingly challenging, leaving many unemployed individuals hopeless while confronted with life changing decisions. Trying to stand out and be recognized in a dense pool of qualified candidates is not as easy as it may have been in the past, with companies directing millions of candidates to their websites on which to post resumes and create lengthy and time intensive profiles. The job search has become a faceless and mundane process with very little success, and with increased frustration to many who continue to sink into an abyss of debt and personal despair. With this situation looming, those out-of-work professionals will have to think outside the box on how to get noticed, be recognized, and make a positive impression on recruiters and hiring managers constantly searching for suitable talent. Candidates will have to market and promote themselves as a BRAND, a successful personal image that translates quality, success, integrity, impressiveness, reliability, and bringing value to the company of their interest. Personal branding will ensure that companies identify you with the strength and true worth in what they look for when considering candidates. For those who are fortunate to still be employed, personal branding is just as important to achieving success in the work place. Companies are constantly looking for ways to “trim the fat” and become lean in their operations. Hence, operational efficiency is their ultimate goal. Akin to this effort of process improvement is doing more with less, which often influences the elimination of human labor. This occurs when companies experience a reduction in profits, have less retained earnings to expand operations and invest in growing the business, and realizing diminishing returned value to their shareholders. Oftentimes, workers must be let go, if they are determined to be part of non-producing or non-revenue generating functions of the organization, or if they themselves are perceived to be adding little value to the organization. If a company believes it can do without you, it will let you go in a layoff or downsizing. It is not a personal matter, but a business decision that companies, large or small, are confronted with on a constant basis. It is all about the bottom line and keeping the doors open. Working professionals have to determine how they are identified by their companies. How strong is your personal BRAND, and how valuable are you to your employer? What differentiates you from your peers that make you stand out? What type of impression are you making on your company? Are there any weaknesses that you have to strengthen? These are some of the questions that you must honestly ask yourself and answer. Performing an honest assessment on your personal BRAND will capture the things that make you valuable to your employer, while at the |

| are open toed heels business casual: Off Track C.L.Hadyn, 2017-05-12 You would think a Native American, who could track a piss ant through a meadow covered in heavy grass, wouldn’t get lost. But he was lost. Orion Brown, son of a full-blood Lakota Sioux was lost, but not in any geographical location. Orion was lost within himself. The deaths of five of Gunnery Sergeant Orion Brown’s men in combat in Afghanistan, and their battle buddies crying on his shoulder, had put him into unknown territory. Oh, he’d remained strong for the Marines who survived. He bucked them up to resume combat without their battle buddies guarding their sixes, but it had cost him. His stronger than strong routine had earned him an honorable discharge from the Marine Corps, panic attacks, and the inability to touch or be touched by other human beings without having a nuclear nervous meltdown. His assigned VA shrink was a joke. Well, the man himself wasn’t a joke. He was sincere, he gave the impression he cared, and he listened when he grudgingly shared some of his feelings, but if he mentioned “survivor’s guilt” just one more time, Orion would show him just how much damage a Marine could do to office furniture. The doc just didn’t get it. He was damned if he tried to open up and interact with the people around him, and he was equally screwed if he let anyone throw an arm over his shoulder or kiss his cheek or slap him on the back. The first induced no feeling at all, as in semi-frozen stiff on a morgue slab, and the second induced panic attacks of epic proportions. He was rapidly being torn apart by the dichotomy of reactions. A slip of a finger on his PC keyboard, offered salvation. The BDSM site wanted to know if he was a Dominant or a submissive. He almost didn’t fill out the personal questionnaire, but overhearing the prevailing opinion of him from two of his students in the Marine Special Operations Tracking/Counter-tracking Course he taught, convinced him he needed to go beyond conventional medical practice. Maybe it wouldn’t be so bad to have an extremely sexy Mistress paddling his backside if he was brought back to the land of the normal. But the Great Spirit was not inclined to grant him normal. Irony of ironies, there was no female Dominant at the local dungeon strong enough to keep him from topping her. Instead, he was assigned to Dai Waleska. A six foot, two-inch Japanese-American Kung Fu Master. Now the overriding question was, was it worth submitting to another man’s physical, and possibly sexual, domination for a chance at getting back on a normal track. Which was more important? Dominance and submission to conquer his frozen core and panic attacks, or maintaining a macho Marine image that would more than likely end with him gargling with a Glock somewhere down a very short road? |

| are open toed heels business casual: Dress to Express Tracy McWilliams, 2012-03-01 ?Why do some women exude confidence and look great in their clothes and others never feel good about how they look, no matter what they wear? And why do we claim we have “nothing to wear” when our closets are bursting with choices? Clothing and dressing anxiety — what Tracy McWilliams calls closet trauma — occurs because we lack a clear sense of self and we have not defined the image we wish to express. |

| are open toed heels business casual: Messy Ethics in Human Rights Work Shayna Plaut, Neil Bilotta, Lara Rosenoff Gauvin, Christina Clark-Kazak, Maritza Felices-Luna, 2023-08-15 Human rights work takes place everywhere, every day, and in every way, but good intentions don’t always bring the intended results. Messy Ethics in Human Rights Work invites readers into a series of overlapping conversations, as activists, researchers, and others consider the complex messiness of ethics in practice and the implications for human rights work in academia and beyond. Although formal ethics guidelines can be useful, their focus on seeing the “messiness” as a problem rather than reality often misses the point. Human rights work entails intricate relationships of social, political, and economic power and responsibility that emerge only in the process of doing the work itself. Contributors share their ethical dilemmas: How did they evaluate a situation and the options to resolve it? Where did or didn’t they seek guidance? What would they do differently next time? This thoughtful work proposes that personal reflection and sometimes uncomfortable discussions are essential components of critical human rights practice. |

| are open toed heels business casual: The Professor Is In Karen Kelsky, 2015-08-04 The definitive career guide for grad students, adjuncts, post-docs and anyone else eager to get tenure or turn their Ph.D. into their ideal job Each year tens of thousands of students will, after years of hard work and enormous amounts of money, earn their Ph.D. And each year only a small percentage of them will land a job that justifies and rewards their investment. For every comfortably tenured professor or well-paid former academic, there are countless underpaid and overworked adjuncts, and many more who simply give up in frustration. Those who do make it share an important asset that separates them from the pack: they have a plan. They understand exactly what they need to do to set themselves up for success. They know what really moves the needle in academic job searches, how to avoid the all-too-common mistakes that sink so many of their peers, and how to decide when to point their Ph.D. toward other, non-academic options. Karen Kelsky has made it her mission to help readers join the select few who get the most out of their Ph.D. As a former tenured professor and department head who oversaw numerous academic job searches, she knows from experience exactly what gets an academic applicant a job. And as the creator of the popular and widely respected advice site The Professor is In, she has helped countless Ph.D.’s turn themselves into stronger applicants and land their dream careers. Now, for the first time ever, Karen has poured all her best advice into a single handy guide that addresses the most important issues facing any Ph.D., including: -When, where, and what to publish -Writing a foolproof grant application -Cultivating references and crafting the perfect CV -Acing the job talk and campus interview -Avoiding the adjunct trap -Making the leap to nonacademic work, when the time is right The Professor Is In addresses all of these issues, and many more. |
