Under-Employed?

Not every job or even every assignment is challenging and rewarding. Some, by their very nature, are repetitive and boring. In years past, many people were content and even thrived in highly-structured positions doing repetitive tasks. Today’s employees are looking for organizations that make jobs interesting, satisfying, and even exciting. Simply doing what’s asked and drawing a paycheck, in many cases, no longer causes job satisfaction.
Job enrichment must be looked at not as a project or a one-time effort of improvement. It is something that must be built into the entire organization as a continuous process. It is something that is initiated and maintained by management to keep employees interested and fully utilize their talents. Job enrichment is making the job more valuable to the employee and the employee more valuable to the company.

Many who have worked in the same position a number of years experience what is called “burnout.” They’ve solved the same problems and done the same things so many times it not only has become routine, it has become boring. Rotating that individual to another assignment or position may allow the individual to become re-excited and re-energized. This doesn’t mean simply moving employees from one location to the other. A planned program of allowing individuals to rotate to another position either on a temporary or permanent basis has benefits for all. Employees will not only learn the importance of other positions and develop an appreciation for the needs of other departments, they will also develop valuable skills.

Do you feel like your employer is under utilizing your skills? Do you dread going into work because your job has become mundane and unchallenging?

If so, in the next two months, Outlaw Group, Inc. will be holding a FREE workshop for unemployed and UNDER-employed people. We will be offering advice on now only how to find jobs, but also how to find the right job for you. We hope to see you there!

Finding the Right Fit!

As a business consultant, a designer of staffing systems for fortune 100 companies, and a published author on the subject of staffing, I have made a career out of assisting employers in hiring the most qualified staff. Good employees are the lifeblood of any business. The right people can help take a business to the top; the wrong people can break you. In my book, Smart Staffing: How to Hire, Reward, and Keep Top Employees for your Growing Company, I help employers in their search for hard-working, committed people who share the same vision and business values.

Given the unemployment situation we are facing in America at this time, I have created this website to try to assist employees in finding the work they so desperately need, and to help them find the jobs that are right for them.

Each week I will be offering some proven tactics to identify what you have that employers want, make you stand out as an applicant, how to find the employers who will fulfill your needs professionally, and advice in the process of locating your new career.

Please feel free to forward a link to my site for anyone you know who may need some help.

There are many unemployed and underemployed people who have tremendous capability to help good companies thrive even in these difficult times. It is my goal to help good people find good companies.

I look forward to hearing your feedback, as well!
