They weigh immediately what has to be done and then do it with pleasure, thus strengthening their reputation. Successful people are enthusiastic about the things
3、 they do, especially when they believe in what they are doing. They are motivated by their own satisfaction and the joy they get from doing their work. They work hard even when no one is watching and they throw themselves into their work. They do not fear failure. Failures and disappointments in lif

You ve just graduated from business school and you feel like the world is your oyster, only to find that job offers aren t knocking down your door as expected,
11、 making MBAs wonder why 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - 名师归纳总结 - - - - - - -第 1 页，共 4 页they re not getting hired. This can be disheartening, but as an MBA, you know that perception（洞察力） is more important than reality. The key to getting hired is an employers perception of you. Many MBA graduates are guilty
12、 of unconsciously displaying signs that they are not the best fit for the job. Once you discover what these common mistakes are, you can put your MBA skills to use and strategize how to turn things in your favor and land the job you ve been looking for.Employers feel more comfortable hiring MBAs wit
13、h experience because there is less need for training. Many MBAs mistakenly apply for jobs they are obviously not qualified for or which require more experience than they have, leaving them scratching their heads at why they re not getting interviews. Recruiters want MBAs who can prove their ability
14、to increase revenues, decrease costs, and help their business succeed in some way. Show that you can help the company by providing concrete examples of relevant experience. MBAs often have great resumes showing all the right qualifications, but then blow the interview with inappropriate behavior, su

It s necessary to be on your best behavior, dress appropriately, and not seem cocky, bored, or disinterested in the company.

16、ess wants to put their most enthusiastic MBAs forward with important clients and customers, so be sure to show your passion for your work. Another mistake you may be making unknowingly is how you portray yourself on social media. As an MBA, you know how important networking is, and these days, most
17、of it is done online. Don t assume that employers aren t interested in your online profiles. Many employers now use social networking sites and online searches to check up on potential hires. Inappropriate photos and information, such as annoying material or implications of drinking and drug use are
18、 huge red flags to employers. Even discriminatory comments related to race, gender, or religion will leave employers with a bad impression. Make sure to remove any photos, content, or links that can work against you in an employer s eyes.Don t forget that practice makes perfect when it comes to find
19、ing a great MBA job. Earning your MBA was a huge accomplishment, but there s always room for improvement. Ask your classmates, peers, family, and even past co-workers or managers for feedback. Show multiple, trusted resources the job posting you re interested in, your cover letter and resume. Take c

It seems that while most of us are only too ready to apply to others the cold wind of criticism, we are somehow unwilling to give others the warm sunshine of praise. It s strange how me
25、an we are about praising. Perhaps it s because few of us know how to accept praise gracefully . Instead , we are embarrassed and ignore the words we are really so glad to hear. Because of this defensive reaction, direct praise is surprisingly difficult to give. Do you ever go into a house and say, “
26、 What a tidy room!” Hardly anybody does. That s why housework is considered such a boring job. Shakespeare said, “ Our praises are our wages.” Since so often praise is the only wage a housewife receives, surely she is worthy of praise. Mothers know naturally that for children an ounce of praise is w
27、orth a pound of scolding. Still, we are unaware of children s small achievements and we seldom apply the rule. One day I was criticizing my children for quarrelling. “ Can you never play peacefully?” I shouted. Susanna looked at me confused. “ Of course I can,” she said. “ But you don t notice us wh
28、en we do.”Teachers agree about the value of praise. “ I believe that a student knows when he has handed in something above his usual standard,” writes a teacher, “ and that he is hungry for a belief comment in the margin to show him that the teacher is aware of it, too.”Behavioral scientists have do
29、ne countless experiments to prove that people have a tendency to repeat an act which has been immediately followed by a pleasant result. In one such experiment, a number of schoolchildren were divided into three groups and given arithmetic tests daily for five days. One group was constantly praised
30、for its previous performance; another group was criticized; the third was ignored. Not surprisingly, those who were praised improved dramatically. Those who were criticized improved ,too, but not so much. And the scores of the children who were ignored hardly improved at all. Interestingly, the brig
31、htest children were helped just as much by criticism as by praise, but the less able children, who reacted badly to criticism, needed praise the most. To give praise costs the giver nothing but a moment s thought and a moment s effortperhaps a quick phone call to pass on good comments , or write an
32、appreciative letter. It is such a small investment and yet consider the results it may produce. We will not only bring joy into other people s lives, but also, very often, added happiness into our room.” I can live for two months on a good compliment.” said Mark Twain.Title : Profits of Praise Theme
