An acceptance makes us happy, a rejection makes us stronger.


Brian Acton had a lapse in employment. Nobody wanted to hire him. He then started a company called WhatsApp and sold it to one of the companies that rejected him. The price was astounding 19 billion dollars.
On a much smaller scale, early in my career, I was rejected because I did not have enough experience in IBM PC development. I had 6 months experience, IBM PC was on the market for 1 year at that point.
I then wrote a spreadsheet program S2 for IBM PC which was used throughout IBM, including the group that rejected me.
An acceptance makes us happy, a rejection makes us stronger.

The Make-Or-Break Career Skill No One Talks About

Image
It goes without saying that you have to be responsible and alert to succeed in your career, no matter what your career path is. You have to be reliable, of course, and you have to be a good team member. No one can really act surprised if they miss out on a promotion and their boss says "We all like you, Stan, but you have a tendency to let us down when it matters, and that's not something a supervisor can do. I gave the promotion to Anjali, because I can always rely on her in the clinch." There is another, critical career skill that makes or breaks careers and that we don't talk about as often as we should. It's a muscle that we don't grow just by getting older or by going to school or even by taking on more and more responsibility over time. It is possible to reach a ripe old age without growing this muscle, and it always a shame when that happens. At Human Workplace we call this must-have career muscle "Fast Learning." What does it mean

New hire turnover is an important HR and recruiting metric that calculates the number of employees who leave a job within their first year or another period defined by the organization. New hire turnover can be  voluntary —an employee decides to leave—or  involuntary —an employee is asked to leave. The purpose of tracking new hire turnover is to determine how effective your hiring and onboarding processes are. It is very expensive to hire a candidate who doesn’t work out – either because the organization or the individual concluded it wasn’t a good fit. What’s more, a high new turnover rate can harm your employer brand, your recruitment budget, an

22 Characteristics of High-Potential Employees

  Even if your team is made up solely of supremely talented individuals, there are always a few employees who stand out from the pack.  According to the  Harvard Business Review ,  these high-potential employees  account for an average of 5% of any company’s workforce.  High-potential employees (HiPos) excel in their current roles, but they also possess the skills and knowledge necessary to thrive in managerial positions and senior roles, too. Importance of identifying top talent for employers High-potential employees need to know that you recognize their potential. In fact, a  recent study  showed that 77% of HiPos feel that being recognized as high-potential talent is important to them.  These workers want help in identifying a career path and they also want support in carving that path. For these reasons, it’s critical that managers identify HiPos early on in order to retain them and keep them engaged.  Employers who identify top talent increase the likelihood of retaining top talen
