The mantra of a winner is the common voice of all executives who succeed beyond expectation in their career search endeavors.
If
you are not excited about your career campaign, then neither will
anybody else be. For most, job hunting is a droll drudgery and self
defeating process. However, you should feel rejuvenated and passionate
about this exciting time of life as you strive for yet another summit of
success and well being!
THE MANTRA OF A WINNER!
"Redefining
my network as Browning Associates has instructed is a real
eye-opener...I never realized how many people I've known. Initially, I
was resistant, but now I am blown away! Everything they instructed me on
regarding "the" network is coming to fruition!!!
I am excited
to begin a strategic and coordinated outreach as a means of
resurrecting, fortifying, and creating new and existing relationships...
I am Even more excited about utilizing the new skills
I've acquired to leverage "the" network in such a way whereas I will be
so busy, I will soon need another admin to help with the influx...
Any
referral is a great referral. I am not making the critical mistake of
removing names from my potential contact lists!!! Employed or
unemployed, it doesn't matter! People know people who know people and my
best leads have come from places I never would have expected! It
typically takes less than a minute to make a call to a potential
contact and maybe another 3-5 minutes to determine whether or not we
might be helpful to each other - I never strip names from any contact
list!!! One unpredicted benefit, is that some
of these guys and gals are actually job seeking themselves...Therefore,
they seem all the more motivated to help me...Once these ladies and
gentlemen decide on their next executive appointment, I will make sure
they remember me for my passion, vigor and want to help them any way I
can!
Also, just being able to get on the phone by way
of a personal introduction from Browning with many $200k++ executives is
leaps and bounds ahead of what I was doing prior...
I'm
talking with people, promoting my brand, sharpening my message and
filling up my calendar with highly productive dialog exactly as
instructed by Browning Associates. Old habits are hard to break, and
most of this was foreign to me at first, but I now know I am in control
of my own destiny. This keeps me highly motivated; it certainly beats
chasing Internet jobs or sending letters cold to various companies...I
am interfacing with people not websites!!!
Just as I've done in all of my executive successes in corporate America, I am now using a team to get it done right!!!!!
Browning is always there for me!"

you are an active client of Browning Associates and this does not

MORE ON THE IMPORTANCE OF YOUR PERSONAL NETWORK
Your
personal network is not only a source of enhanced career market value,
long-term job security and wealth creation, but it is the absolute
heartbeat of your executive job search.....
Negating to notify your personal and professional network of your
latest career search endeavor, just might perpetuate your best job
hunting efforts to a drain-circling spiral of career delusion and
abyss! AKA - chasing internet postings and headhunters. This forlorn and most forsaken place must be avoided at all costs...
Sadly, most folks know of no other way to conduct a job search, and therefore, it becomes the norm to not
inform their friends and colleagues of their career situation. But this
exploit and true to life consequence is not the job seekers fault; it's
what the job market and inaugurated hiring protocols are designed to
do! Follow the rules, don't call us, we'll call you! It's a buyers
market ladies and gentleman! The more traditional job hunting becomes
the median, the longer you will struggle in this mixed up mania of job
search futility ...
"Man can live 4 weeks without food, 4 days without water, 4 minutes without air, but only 4 seconds without hope!"
If you refuse to communicate with your ENTIRE network (everybody on the face of the planet who knows your name)
and/or have wholeheartedly convinced yourself you don't have a network,
it may just be better to hound the published job market... Thus, when
you finally do stumble upon the perfect job, or the one you profess you
are able to do with one hand tied behind your back, you might at least buy an intermittent delusion of an additional 4 seconds of counterfeit hope...
Unfortunately,
when the employer doesn't call or even acknowledge receipt of your
resume submission, you just might embark on an unintentional plummet in
to what I call "terminus isolation." In other words, working in the
garden, managing the dreaded Honey-do list, or worse; burying yourself
deeper in to the job you hate...
Lets
face it, every time you chaotically submit a resume or reach out to a
headhunter and don't hear back, a small piece of your self-assurance,
certainty and confidence is hacked away! Not a good state of mind to be
in when one of your friends or colleagues calls with a real occasion to
meet real people in real companies with real forthcoming opportunities!
Lego your Ego
People
you know will welcome you...This will invoke confidence and a sense of
positive well being...Your network is the emotional life source of your
job search endeavor...It will feed your every being, which in turn will
enable you to trudge onward even in the face of rejection which is
always an illusive, invisible and victorious enemy for every executive
job seeker who reasons his network is a spare tire and not the steering
wheel.... Smile and dial!
Blessings
