We can all suffer from Fear of Missing Out or #FOMO when searching for a job.

Or maybe we think that out-of-the-blue offer shows our unique gifts have been recognised at last.
That kind of magical thinking can leave us open to #scammers who want our attention, personal data, or money.
Here’s a reminder about practising due diligence and keeping safe during job search activity.

As Christmas and the new year get closer, we could do worse than think about the future.
In the short-term there will be parties and socials where our people skills are put to the test. After all, social gatherings can bring out the worst in people.
In those settings our charisma or #rizz helps us get out point across and listen, respectfully, to others’ views. We can remain happy even if the atmosphere gets heated.
In January we will be going after a new set of goals. We might have to work with new people and influence their actions to get something done on our behalf. Charisma will be important in this area too.
So, this holiday season we can all practice using our people skills and see what value we can add to work, or play, by using our charisma.
Why not give it a try and leave a comment about how you got on.
