How to Give a Reference - The Muse

How to Give a Reference - The MuseHow to Give a Reference You get a call from a hiring manager who would like to know if youll provide a reference for a former intern or employee. But this isnt your typical reference call, and to be honest, youre not sure how to answer- because youve been totally blindsided. For starters, you didnt know you that you were being listed as a reference. Heck, you didnt even know your connection welches looking to change jobs, or volunteer- or whatever it is the person on the other side of the phone is calling to inquire about.Of course, someone shouldnt just assume youll serve as a reference. What if she misjudged the relationship, and you would have turned her down? Not to mention shes missing her chance to really prepare you. But it happens Its happened to me, its happened to managers I know, and someday it may happen to you. And while you may be thinking, I have no idea what youre talking about, youll probably want to say something mora diplomatic to the person on the line. Heres how to handle this situation based on your relationship with the applicant.If You Want to Give a Stellar RecommendationStrategy Answer BroadlyWhen I was a fellowship program manager, I had a fellow Ill call Jane. Jane was awesome She was brilliant, she did everything I asked of her (even volunteer assignments), she worked at a super-demanding organization that loved her- she even had perfect posture.Well, one day I get a call from a mentoring program that matches professionals with inner-city youth. Jane had listed me as a reference, and the company had several specific questions that went beyond What do you think of Jane? I was asked if she was right for the mystery role, as well as to discuss her experience working with minority youth. If Jane had prepped me, I would have had relevant answers- but I had no idea that shed even applied. I couldnt admit that It would have made her look at best presumptuous and at worst irresponsible (which isnt really me ntoring material).So, I gave a reference that was truthful- and broad. For example, to answer whether I thought she could do the job, I responded that she was a competitive runner and had more drive than just about anyone Id ever met (true- and applicable whether she was applying to be a systems analyst or connect with an elementary school student). When asked about her experience with diversity, I discussed her interactions with our board members and explained that our board of directors had age and gender diversity (again, broad and a bit tangential, but true).If you find yourself in this situation, give honest, widely applicable answers that paint the candidate in a positive light. For example, great communication skills and dependability are always positives. But recounting the story of someone locking himself in his schreibstube to complete his work- while you think it shows persistence and hard work- probably wouldnt come off as well if hes applying for a client-facing role.If Youre Not Comfortable Serving as a ReferenceStrategy Answer Specifically (Then Punt)Its one thing when a former employee neglects to mention that he put you down as a reference, because he had asked you four times over the past four months, and he didnt want to overwhelm you with (yet another) email regarding an application he submitted. Its a completely different story when someone misjudges your relationship and has never asked you to serve as a reference- because if he had, you would have declined. You dont want to sink someones candidacy, but your credibility is at stake. Hopping off the phone (because youre late for a meeting), without saying anything and never calling back is like pulling an emergency lever You can do this if you have nothing nice to say, but it should be the last resort.Instead, see if you cant first say one nice thing before you get off the phone- and make it super specific. Heres how it works Say someone listed you because you have name recognition, but yo uve only have a few interactions at industry events. The hiring manager calls and asks you to if you think hed be a good marketing manager. Try this Each time Ive spoken with Mark, Ive been impressed with his ability to shift between small talk and discussing market trends. Then, say you have to run.The brevity of your review implies that youre not a close connection, but you managed to say something nice- and true- so everybody wins (as much as they could in this given situation). If you really dont know (or think highly of) the person in question, be as brief as possible Unfortunately, I dont feel I know Marks work well enough to provide a reference. Sorry I cant be more helpful Thats much preferable to, Weve only met twice, or worst of all, Who?No matter what, as soon as you get off the phone with the hiring manager, you need to contact the applicant. First, hell be glad to know his references are being checked But beyond that, you need to fill him on what the call was like from your perspective.For the candidate youre close with, try something like, I want to give you the highest recommendation possible. I did the best I could, but in the future, please let me know when youd like to list me as a reference so that Im better prepared.And for the candidate you barely know? Be candid. I was surprised to be contacted as a reference, as I dont remember us ever discussing it. Unfortunately, I dont feel I know you well enough to give as strong a reference as you deserve. So, Id appreciate it if youd refrain from listing me in future.Its an honor to listed as reference It means the candidate trusts you to speak to a prospective employer. But, he or she should ask first- and you may decline as necessary.Photo of person on phone courtesy of Shutterstock.

5 Tips on How to Survive Working for a Millennial Boss

5 Tips on How to Survive Working for a Millennial Boss 5 Tips on How to Survive Working for a Millennial Boss 5 Tips on How to Survive Working for a Millennial BossAs baby boomers retire, millennials those between the ages of 23 and 38, and who happen to outnumber their older generation X colleagues in the workplace are increasingly landing management positions. Young engineers with valued technology skills are often promoted over their older peers.What does all this mean? Engineers, even relatively young ones, can find themselves working for a babo who is younger than them, said Kathi pica pica, a career and executive coach at K Squared Enterprises, which provides tools and tactics to workplace navigation.A Harris Interactive poll conducted in 2012 on behalf of CareerBuilder found that 34 percent of employees in the United States works for a younger boss. And 15 percent of respondents said their boss was at least 10 years younger than they were. That number is expected to grow as baby boomers retire and as millennials become managers. That percentage has probably increased in the past few years, Elster said.Get the Edge Five Job Interview Questions Young Engineers Can ExpectWorking under someone younger than yourself can present challenges. You may encounter differences in work habits, work styles, or viewpoints, she added. By following the five tips below, you can significantly decrease any on-the-job uncomfortableness or outright strife, and take your working relationship in a positive direction.1.Maintain a Positive AttitudeA recent study in the Journal of Organizational Behavior found that most workers at firms with managers younger than themselves reported having more negative emotions, such as anger and fear, than those with older bosses. Youll need to manage those emotions by staying positive, Elster said.You were probably once the rising star with the clever ideas. Think back to those days and to your enthusiasm for your early jobs as you listen care fully to what your manager has to say. You could find echoes of a younger you in their words, she added. This will help, should you struggle to respect your high-ups title and position.Brush Up Six Project Management Tips Every Engineer NeedsLet go of your past. You know your latest achievements. Call them to mind. You know youre a great engineer. Your boss, however, is focused on current challenges and wants to know how youre addressing todays challenge and working to meet tomorrows goals.2.Refrain from Knowing it AllWhile related to the first consideration, the older know-it-all-employee is so feared by young managers that it deserves a category all its own, Elster said. To enkoranvers you dont fall into that role, keep your thoughts and tone free of condescending thoughts.You cant be a know-it-all if you realize you dont, in fact, know how to do everything, said Adwoa Dadzie, a career coach who runs Yes Shes the Boss academy, a leadership program for corporate women.No matter you r experience, your boss will probably have their own spin on things. And thats okay.You have to be open to new ways of doing things even if its different than what youve been used to, she said. Even if you have your own ways of working and doing things, your boss may have new ideas for how to be efficient and do the job. Those ideas may exceed your expectations.Along those same lines, avoid any biases, stereotypes, judgements, or even envy you may have about this young leader being your boss, she added.Read ASMEs Top Story Air Taxi Aces Test FlightJust because theyre a young leader doesnt mean theyll be a sucky leader, Dadzie said. Dont make the judgement that less tenure means they wont be a strong leader.3.Watch What You SayDont make age-centric comments. You wouldnt want your age to become a part of any conversation, so steer away from all talk of others ages or experience, even if youre referring to hobbies or activities that take place outside of work, Elster said.Dont compare what they do to what your adult kids are doing or what you were doing at that age, she said. Your boss also doesnt want to hear you talk about your kid. And skip any chitchat that dates you, like Im expecting my third grandchild.4.Concentrate on Your Own RoleFocus on what you have to offer as an employee, Dadzie says. Doing this builds confidence and keeps you from focusing too much on concerns about age.We bring maturity, commonsense, and experience to our jobs, Elster said.Remind yourself often of those and other positive qualities you have as an engineer.5.Stay Open to New LearningYour boss may have been promoted because they understand a new technology or a new way of doing things. Respect that knowledge. A younger boss can actually bring a great deal of experience and expertise to a job. Learn from them. Youll gain their respect by letting them know youre willing to learn from them.Along the same lines, if you achieve a new certification or attain a new skill, be sure to let yo ur boss know. Dont keep your own achievements a secret because you feel old bringing them up to a younger person.The bottom line Respect your leader, no matter their age. Work to earn their respect. And prepare for an ongoing, positive working environment.Jean Thilmany is a freelance writer in St. Paul who frequently writes on engineering topics.Read More Exclusive Stories from ASME.orgYouTube Star Goes Viral with Glitter BombDrone Deploys in Just Minutes but Flies for HoursWho Are the Engineers of the Future?Just because theyre a young leader doesnt mean theyll be a sucky leader.

Management Issues Surrounding Customer Satisfaction

Management Issues Surrounding Customer SatisfactionManagement Issues Surrounding Customer SatisfactionThe late, great management and quality guru, W. Edwards Deming described the numbers rating customer satisfaction as, unknown and unknowable, but critically important. In todays social media world, we chronicle our experiences with business interactionsin real-time, alerting the world to our satisfaction (or dissatisfaction) with retailers. For any manager, the opportunity for positive feedback to go viral is exciting, while a chronicled negative experience lives forever in cyberspace. The measurement and monitoring of customer satisfaction is an essential management activity and one filled with opportunities to promote organizational learning and continuous improvement. Customer Satisfaction is Personal to the Organization Customer Satisfactionis relative to the organization and is a very personal decision tied to branding and overall strategy. One organization may place a premi um on the entire experience, while anotlageher focuses on a narrower attribute, such as safety or functionality. Consider the following examples of customer experiences If you are a member of the gruppe at Ritz Carlton Hotels, the idea that you are one of the ladies and gentlemen serving ladies and gentlemen is ingrained in your personal and professional mindset. You are aware that you are a critical representation of your organization and brand, and you are entrusted with ensuring customer satisfaction at every instance.As a member of the Mayo Clinic organization, your core value is, the needs of the patient come first. Every single decision is filtered against this core value and customer satisfaction is monitored and measured to ensure the value is upheld. For many airlines, the focus is on critical customer safety, however, it often appears to frequent flyers that customer satisfaction is not a key business driver. Airlines are diligent about measuring on-time arrivals and depar tures but rarely address how happy (or unhappy) their customers are with the overall experience.At upscale retailer Nordstroms, remarkable customer service is something every associate is trained and motivated to deliver. Personal representatives are known to come in on their days off to help clients, especially long-term customers. Value, Discipline,and Strategy are Key The examples above illustrate a range of customer service experiences. If your primary means of creating value focuses on the customer experience and service level, then you should incorporate this into every aspect of your business. This starts withhiring and training employees to find opportunities to surprise and delight customers at every turn. This discipline then becomes an integral part of your business strategy and one you can measure and monitor from many angles. If your focus is on product innovation or operational excellence, your customer satisfaction emphasis needs to reflect this. You need to regu larly monitor whether or not customers view your offerings as the most innovative in the marketplace. Value discipline and strategy define a firms priorities and these measures are identified in order to assess how well a firm is performing against those priorities. Ideally, the firms look for key drivers of success, leading indicators that predict a future change in outcomes, and lagging indicators that assess how the firm performed against targets. If customer satisfaction is core to the firms DNA, then measures of overall experience are critical. Diminishing Returns from Investing in Customer Satisfaction While it seems counter-intuitive to invest in strengthening customer satisfaction, it might not benefit a firms revenue stream or profit margin. Customers often place their emphasis on other factors. You might not care that your plumber did not surprise and delight you as long as the water in the kitchen sink now flows smoothly and the price was reasonable. The plumbing firm could choose to invest in friendly, joke-telling individuals dressed in smart uniforms and purchase a fleet of fancy trucks. However, customers would not feel compelled to retain their services more often, if at all. Customer Satisfaction is Relative Another late, great management guru, Peter Drucker, suggested that the purpose of a firm is to acquire and keep customers. A dissatisfied customer reduces repeat business and potentially costs you future customers because customers wont be referred to you. Part of your job as a manager is to match customer expectations (and steps taken by your competitors) in your particular marketplace and industry. To ensure quality and satisfaction you then need to develop your own unique and meaningful approach to serving your critical audience. Before embarking upon a measurement program, carefully consider what customer satisfaction truly means for your customers and your firms overall strategy.

6 Things to Consider When Defining Your Ideal Career Path

6 Things to Consider When Defining Your Ideal Career Path Whether youre new to the workforce or considering making a career change, its important to have a clear career path in mind.Unfortunately, that isnt always easy. Especially during the earliest stages of our careers, we tend to make decisions based on what influencers like our family and friends tell us or by trefflich feeling. Perhaps this is whythe average college student changes their majorthree times during their college career.To avoid future confusion and frustration, you may want to consider the following six things when defining your ideal career path1. Define Your PassionUnderstanding what motivates you is the first step in defining your ideal career path. Your passion does not necessarily have to be a specific job or industry. Your motivation can be something like helping others or feeling good about yourself, and you can explore many paths to fulfill these desires. If you follow a car eer path that satisfies you, you will be a more competent professional who delivers better outcomes.2. Experience Is the Best TeacherWhen youre starting your first career or jumping into a new one, it can be difficult to identify your natural skills, especially those on which you can capitalize. Youll need to give yourself some time to explore your skills and understand your potential. After gaining some experience, you will be in a better position to identify your strengths and leverage your talent for success.3. Think in Terms of Career Opportunities Instead of Particular JobsIt is a common mistake to make decisions based on what is happening in the moment. What you need right now may not be aligned with what you want in the long term.For instance, quickly accepting a promotion because of the higher compensation may not be the best option if the new role doesnt lead to the career track you want to follow. Having very clear career goals will turn your daily decisions into small ste ps towards your ideal career path.That being said, you should approach opportunities in terms of where you want to be in the next five or eight years. You do not need to commit forever.4. Culture MattersWhen defining your ideal career, be sure to consider the company culture. The work environment, your coworkers, and the company leadership can all contribute to how much or how little you enjoy a job. No matter how well a role seems to align with your career goals,it may not be smart to take the role if the culture isnt right for you.For instance, big corporations and small startups operate in very different ways. Some people thrive more in one than the other.5.Money Cant Be EverythingAt the end of the day, we all have to pay the bills. However, money should not always be the primary factor in determining your next career step. Making decisions based on money alone can be a big mistake. According to Forbes contributor Rick Smith, no matter how much money we have, we always wish we ha d at least 20 percent more.Instead of focusing on money, think about what genuinely matters to you. Do you value flexible hours? A more enjoyable lifestyle?If no amount of money will ever be enough, then its much smarter to make choices based on wishes you can fulfill.6. Look to the FutureFinally, be sure to consider the future of the profession to which you may be drawn. In our age of rapid technological advances, the world of work is changing constantly. Will your dream job change soon or even worse, will it be eliminated?To identify a profession with potential, look at current trends in the industry. If possible, talk to people operating in the field. They may be able to tell youhow your chosen career is likely to change in the future.Maria Onzain is a digital marketing expert who writes about careers, education, ed. tech, and life hacks.
