I train your employees and new hires in real time, with real-life scenarios, in the field one on one, to home in on what skills your employee has, what potential lies beneath for them to become a great asset to your firm. I begin my training with none of the technology we have today. It starts old-school with primary focus on working the streets. We start surveillance with a name, address and the basics only, and I work on finding and bringing out the “detective” mindset first. “Laying the groundwork for a great work ethic” is a trait that will define an individual throughout their career. The importance of the quality fieldwork one should consistently produce is defined by effective management, thorough and remedial training, and accountability. Hands-on personal training is how it should be done for local and regional agencies. For nationwide, there are easy solutions. Today’s technology has revolutionized the hiring process, making it more efficient, effective, and convenient for recruiters, and applicants. New technologies are reshaping the way organizations attract, screen, and select candidates. This technology in most industries is very efficient and is the “new way”. Yes, times have changed, but continuously investing in, and valuing, your people, will always and forever shape your success. 30 years ago my first job as a field investigator, I found a P.I. Agency hiring. I received an interview, got hired and went through the process; the in-person meeting spoke volumes on their confidence in taking the chance on me. The human factor was present, my appearance and drive, my words, expressions, and my “why”, was clear. One must believe in oneself first. It was the old school “first impression” that we rarely “see” anymore. It’s all virtual now and most employees never even met face to face, in years. It showed them the real “me”. I was a face of their company and responsible for producing. I was their revenue, their reputation, an integral part of their growth. My work ethic evolved from there. I respected accountability and knew them personally. I then learned that Failure is a gift of knowledge. They knew me and the relationship grew. I wasn’t a name on paper and an ID photo. I was hungry and I expected no hand-outs. I had to earn it. I’ve employed, hired, and supervised 100’s of field investigators through several ventures and positions. And found, “the talent pool containing integrity, work ethic, care, and the drive to produce is fading quickly. Companies are getting too large to even know who their employees are, as people. They need to go back in time and remember how hard they worked to get to where they are, and recall feeling valued which fueled their hunger to succeed and grow. That first job is the sole reason I am still at it 30 years later. My goal is to reach as many as possible that the precedents you set on hiring, training, and valued confidence you instill, will result in long-lasting relationships.

When I started my career, I wasn't concerned with external validation. All I wanted was the satisfaction of my work and the progress I was making. But after starting a company, I realized the impact that appreciation can have on a team. There are 2 types of employees in a team. Type 1 Prefer independence and flexibility Thrive in self-directed roles Enjoy taking initiative and making decisions Require minimal supervision Type 2 Need clear guidelines and direction Benefit from structured tasks and deadlines May feel overwhelmed without clear guidance May need more frequent check-ins and support So managing labor - it's challenging. Understanding the nature of them and managing the emotions of our team have been incredibly helpful for our growth. A happy and motivated team is a productive team. Which type are you?

You can't WIN ! Alone, you can't win ❌ I met an entrepreneur who comments about their team every single conversation. He said, ❌ They're not loyal to me ❌ They exit the employment without prior information ❌ They're not working on their day process properly I gently replied, you can't expect all the employees in the team to be same. You have to hire a suitable person for your organisation. Everytime it won't work if you just validate the skill alone & most cases you need suitable candidate for your culture. A good candidate expects, ✅ Growing environment ✅ Proper remuneration at proper time ✅ Supportive Management ✅ Frequent training & guidance These are the basic things people expect from a company while joining. We treat them as colleagues not as subordinates 💥 SAI TECHNO SOLUTIONS

I buy real estate and start businesses. Owner of Somewhere.com, Bolt Storage, RE Cost Seg and more. I send a weekly email to 220K+ people.
Real estate definition: Expense ratio. The ratio of expenses to revenue. $10k of monthly revenue at a 40% expense ratio means $4k in expenses and $6k in profit. My portfolio operates between 35 and 40%, depending on the asset. It is extremely useful because I can look at this number in a brokers underwriting and immediately tell if I am a potential buyer at the price. If it says 25%, that is too low. If it says 15%, it’s a joke. Remember: It costs money to manage properties well and compensate a good team of employees!

How do you define success? Interviewers ask this question to peek into your: - Work ethic, - Priorities, - Preferences, and - Motivations. It provides them with clues about your values, as well as specific key traits. For example, if you say that success is seeing everyone on the team succeed, you're telling the hiring manager that you value teamwork and communication. Here is how you can answer "How do you define success" in the best way possible: ➝ Define, then show First, define what success means to you. And while you answer this, avoid giving a long definition of success; instead, tap on it briefly and shift your response to the achievement, the real point. ➝ Quantify your achievements You give your accomplishments more weight when you quantify them. So, instead of saying, "I increased sales," say, "I successfully increased sales by 20% in the first quarter, resulting in a boost in revenue." ➝ End it with a positive note Close your response with enthusiasm and optimism. Show your excitement about contributing to the company's success and how your skills can make a difference. Sample answers:- 📌 Fresher “To me, success means doing my job well. As a fresher, I want to be known for always giving my best effort and striving to achieve my goals. I believe success comes from continuously challenging myself and embracing new opportunities in the workplace. I am excited to contribute to the success of the team and the organization.” 📌 Experienced “For me, success is helping my team succeed. I did this at my last job by mentoring and directing my colleagues. This made us more efficient and successful, and we were able to cut back expenses by 15% on projects and finish each task on time. I'm proud of this, and I'm excited to do the same thing for my new employer.” Remember, this is an open-ended question, so there are no right or wrong answers. What matters most is your genuine response and the confidence you have in expressing your values and aspirations.

You think you've heard it all sometimes in R2R and then you hear things like this: They told me on interview everyone gets a LinkedIn Recruiter licence. 😮 I've since discovered you have to buy it yourself and only get your money back when you bill. And many haven't had their money back They told me on interview I have 25 days holiday. 😔 I've since discovered you can only take it if you hit target. That's not just new starters. It's everyone. They told me on interview we have a fantastic reputation in the market. 😱 I've since discovered my MD has multiple "aliases".....so people will still work with us (until they found out who the MD is) They told me on interview what a collaborative team we are here. 😰 I've since discovered the Directors will take your candidate you've already put forward for a role, put them forward for the same role with the same client and take the commission of you. It's horrendous. Just horrendous. This is for anyone who's sitting there, wishing they could literally just get up and walk out right now. Please don't feel "this is how recruitment is". It isn't. Thankfully, there are enough really decent recruitment firms who don't go within a million miles of this behaviour. They may not be perfect but their heart and head are in the right places 😊 The market isn't "dead" - great consultancies are hiring for growth and a strong future. Rach x

Being someone who's easy to collaborate with helps create a positive vibe in the workplace, motivating everyone to give their all and strive for excellence. Builds Trust and Credibility: Establishing trust is crucial in any professional relationship. Working together is key to coming up with new ideas and solving problems. Being approachable and supportive makes it easier for coworkers to collaborate and share their thoughts without worrying about being judged. This atmosphere values different viewpoints, often leading to innovative solutions and exciting breakthroughs. It goes without saying that communication is the key to any conversation. Easy-going individuals listen more, are more open in their speaking, and act and provide kind and constructive criticism. Clear and direct communication avoids any possible problems and assures people they are all on the same page. #business #entrepreneur #motivation #marketing #success #money #love #smallbusiness #entrepreneurship #businessowner #mindset #instagram #inspiration #instagood #lifestyle #startup #digitalmarketing #goals #life #branding #investment #design #finance #follow #work #motivationalquotes #socialmedia #realestate

Guess what the best career skill is? 👉 It’s being easy to work with. Seriously, it can make all the difference in your career. I learned this the hard way early in my career. I was so focused on getting results and being the best that I didn’t realize how I was coming across to my team. One day, a coworker pulled me aside and said, "You’re great at your job, but it’s hard to work with you." That hit me hard. I knew I had to change. From that moment, I worked on becoming easier to work with. It wasn’t about being the smartest. It was about being helpful, kind, and easy to approach. Here are a few simple things I did: 📌 Listened more than I talked. 📌 Helped out when others were stuck. 📌 Gave credit where it was due. 📌 Kept a positive attitude, even when things got tough. These small changes made a big difference. People noticed. The team worked better together, and I felt less stressed too. Being easy to work with isn’t just good for the team. It’s good for you. It opens doors to new opportunities, builds trust, and makes work more enjoyable. So, ask yourself: What can you do to be easier to work with? Image credit: Andrew Lokenauth. Give him a follow!

It all starts with good, consistent communication. As leaders we forget the outsized influence we have not only on our team members but on the company as a whole. A bad manager hurts not on the the team, but the company by not allowing the company to realize the potential of the people they have hired. And its not one to one. Its a a force multiplier. So if you are leading, make sure your communication is clear and your intentions are good, so you force multiply in the right direction.
When I was a mid-weight Software Developer I was fired for poor performance. This was the same manager who told me I met expectations in my review 4 days previous. This was the same manager who said on my first day: 'Don't forget you are a resource here'. This was the same manager who when I asked about the training budget said he allocated me in a previous 1-1 said: 'that's not happening, that wasn't worth the paper it was written on '. I was incredibly naive and grateful to just be there. I was so desperate to be a professional Developer I would have missed a lot of red flags. I still have no clue how I could have improved in line with no expectations laid out in front of me. That experience was a pivotal learning point in my career to back my intuition, be aware of red flags and it helped me understand the type of manager I don't want to be. If you have a good team and good leaders around you, learn from them, seek advice and ask questions. You are very lucky. People often leave managers not companies. A players hire A players. B players hire C players.
