jobs believe helping
If you believe, as I do, that your employees truly are your most valuable asset, you will do whatever you can to help them do their jobs as well as possible.
jobs mean issues
Just because an employee does things differently doesn't mean he or she won't do the job right or as well. If you establish expectations of the goal and the standards to follow, then methodology shouldn't be an issue.
jobs self-esteem team
Like it or not, life is a series of competitions. You may be competing for a grade, a spot on a team, a job, or the largest account in town. The higher your self-esteem is, the better you get along with yourself, with others, and the more you'll accomplish.
jobs curiosity attention
Pay attention to those employees who respectfully ask why. They are demonstrating an interest in their jobs and exhibiting a curiosity that could eventually translate into leadership ability.
jobs opportunity maintaining-the-status-quo
Pessimism doesn't grow your business or even maintain the status quo. The pessimists on your staff make the job harder for everyone around them. They make difficulties out of opportunities.
jobs causes passionate
You can't be passionate when you feel like it. You have to be passionate about your job, product or cause all the time. There's no off switch on a tiger.

To me, job titles don't matter. Everyone is in sales. It's the only way we stay in business.
loyalty jobs support
Employee loyalty begins with employer loyalty. Your employees should know that if they do the job they were hired to do with a reasonable amount of competence and efficiency, you will support them.
basketball jobs mean
Leadership does not mean getting people to do their job. It means getting people to do their best.
jobs stupid careers
Many, perhaps most, people who lose their jobs are mistaken about the reason for which they lost their jobs. Some will say that they're failures, others that their boss had it in for them, and others yet that they were sure their career ended because of a stupid faux pas they made at the company picnic.
funny lost spend time
Time is free, but it's priceless. You can'town it, but you can use it. You can't keepit, but you can spend it. Once you've lost ityou can never get it back.
business determines stay
No business can stay in business without customers. How you treat - or mistreat - them determines how long your doors stay open.
conceit fame talent thankful wisdom
Talent is God-given; be humble. Fame is man-given; be thankful. Conceit is self-given; be careful.

We will move mountains to keep the team here.
