Laurie, I hope it didn't come across as though I felt you were personally have a bullying situation! I sincerely meant this long winded response as a general guideline for anyone :-) ~Karla

Laurie Hardy replied to Laurie Hardy's discussion 'Work Bullies'

Karla, How insightful. Thank you for your advice. I am fortunate enough to not have been exposed recently to bullies, but know that many people deal with it on a daily basis, as I once had the pleasure of. I am so glad that you are sharing your vo…

Karla Porter replied to Laurie Hardy's discussion 'Work Bullies'

It's amazing the casualties a bully manager can cause. Rarely there is just one victim. Even if the bully's focus is a single individual, co-workers, team morale and the family and friends they go home to suffer 2nd degree injury. Laurie, to answer…

Laurie Hardy commented on Amanda Hite's blog post 'The Being Broke Advantage.'

I am speechless right now. I will summarize it with that. In tough times, it is hard to admit that we are not where we would like to be; in our careers, in our finances, and coming to terms with the acceptance in the decisions (and repercussions of)…

About me:

"I was privileged to have Laura Hardy in my Public Relations class in the winter of 2008. I found Laura to be highly motivated to learn and very capable. Laura’s work was outstanding and she exhibited natural leadership abilities among her peers. She has a strong ability to focus on the task and to complete it in a timely manner while producing a superior product. I consider it a privilege to have taught Laura."-Rosemary Newcomer, Division of Fine Arts, Department of Communication Arts, Sinclair Community College

How did you hear about TALENT revolution?

from the Inspirationalist, Amanda Hite

Interest

Family, friends, anything my son does...
I am deeply interested in the utilization of social media to build a strong network, as well as the newest trends and cutting edge methods of recruitment.

My strengths are:

I am extremely generous with my time if it can benefit those around me.
The eagerness to experience "the new"; to grow, and self-educate; motivate and coach instead of discipline; and the never ending search for self-fulfillment and educational opportunities.

What generation are you apart of?

My favorite thing about my generation is?

The acceptance of opportunity and the enthusiasm to succeed.

My Affair With My Career

The revolving door spins... out pops another new manager....
The staff gathers to see the new person that will "control their livelihood"...
The whispers begin...
The thoughts start to swirl... Will we be treated well and with respect by this new person? Will they consider us individually? What have they been told about us? Will they care about us?
The anticipation of meeting this new person is scary... and exciting...
Will the necessary changes be made?
Why are all of our jobs posted all over t… Continue

The voice...

So, as I sit, thinking of fresh new sexy ways to help build this awesome company I work for... my mind begins to trail...

Getting ready to call people I have never met... in hopes of finding a connection with them so that I can help them find and define their UCL...

I listen to the words they speak. I hear every word they are communicating. I am paying attention to the fluctuations in their dimeanors, speech, and intonations... listening to hear their passion. Listening to find that spark that… Continue

Your Inner Song

So, as I sit, working and researching for the coolest new company... ever... I turn on some "feel good tunes".

As I choose what to listen to, I carefully select the music I wanna groove to... am I in a serious mood only to select opera or classical (yep, I'm a nerd)... do I put on my soul sounds and crank Mary J Blige... do I put on some funky tunes with a dancin beat... or do I go old school?

So many options... I may give up and go back to work... (I chose a mixture... thank God for the wonde… Continue

YOUR personal GPS...

so as i sat, surrounded by the most creative genius i have ever met... i felt my vocal chords freeze... as the overwhelming sensation of energy free flowed all around me... the loud one.. yes, me... unable to speak as i absorbed the thoughts and mentalities of some of the most successful people i have ever met...

as the day continued, the ongoing jokes of "gps systems" seemed to drive laughter as one of the funniest gals entertained with her take on the new trend found in everyone's cars... and… Continue

At 11:58pm on June 9, 2009, Giriraj Daga said…: Thank you Laurie. I am excited to be here as well. I am content with the current role in my organization. I am working on a project that goes live in few months. It has been challenging and hence a learning process for me. However, I wish to redefine my career in the long term. I would like to know how Talent Revolution can help me find and prepare for a challenging role in a high tech Research lab or company where I can push myself to the limits and make the best use of my talents. By the way, the collection of songs on your home page is good. I would keep coming back -Giriraj

Thanks for adding me to your network a few days past. I have been looking around the site and inviting friends. I have also posted a few discussions, but with not much activity. I've noticed that there is only one category that has a lot of play. Anyway I'll keep posting and see what develops. thanks.
