  • the single most important factor behind all successful collaborations is trust-based relationships among participants. Many collaborative efforts ultimately fail to reach their full potential because they lack a strong relational foundation.
  • Trust not control
  • network entrepreneurs focus on creating authentic relationships and building deep trust from the bottom up. This focus on relationship-building costs relatively little yet ultimately makes a tremendous difference in impact. Network entrepreneurs ensure that the power of others grows while their own power fades, thereby developing capacity in the field and a culture of distributed leadership that dramatically increases the collaboration’s efficiency, effectiveness, and sustainability.

Which Job Boards are Most Useful for Applicants? - 0 views

  • Lisa Levinson on 12 Jan 16
     
    From undercoverrecruiter.com: Indeed and Monster have more candidates without a college education, Careerbuilder has more candidates with a college education and degrees. Indeed and Monster cater to teenagers, temporary job seekers, those only with a high school education and those freshly out of college. Careerbuilder weeds out some of the less serious applicants and is used more by high-scale employers. Entry-level hiring employers use Monster. For employers, Indeed is cheapest to use, then Monster, with Careerbuilder being the most expensive. Employers still use Careerbuilder because it weeds out unqualified and less serious applicants.

    Interesting annual report from quintcareers.com from 2012 about how ATS works, and how it screens out 90% of applicants based on key words only. Employers use it because of the sheer numbers of resumes they get and the cutting of ranks of hiring decision-makers , but there are many problems with ATS.

    "While the leaders on stage understand that they play a critical role in preparing their workers for the future, ultimately they all agreed that they can only do so much. There is an individual responsibility to recognize that the world is changing and continually improve on your own skills, McNamara said."

  • Today’s ability to oh-so-easily see and hear each other online is a double-edged sword: it can make electronic communication more personable, but it can also inject offline prejudices evoked by how someone looks or sounds.
  • Now, a lot of online communication is done synchronously, or nearly so: volunteers are online together, at the same time, talking together, and staff supporting those volunteers is often seeing their volunteering activities in real time.
  • People do not communicate primarily via e-mail anymore; they now talk together via online social networks and in the comments section of blogs, photo-sharing sites, and video-sharing sites. Some people send far more SMS messages than email messages.

  • they can and do engage in service just about anywhere, not only with a laptop, but with a tablet or smart phone.
  • The most welcomed change in the last few years is that using the Internet to communicate with, engage, and support volunteers has been adopted in one way or another by a majority of nonprofit organizations in the USA. What hasn’t changed is that there are still thousands of organizations resisting any use of the Internet to support and involve volunteers, with thousands of other organizations involving online volunteers while still not understand that the involvement; I volunteered mostly online for a regional office of the Girl Scouts of the USA in 2010 and 2011, yet I would bet that office would say “no” to the question, “Do you engage in virtual volunteering?”
  • the elements for success in virtual volunteering are still largely the same as they have been for the last 20 years. What hasn’t changed? The importance of creating volunteering tasks that have real impact, of frequent communications with volunteers, of showing volunteers what impact their contributions have had, and of showing senior management at an organization what impact virtual volunteering is having. I’m relatively sure these recommendations will never change, even as technology does.

  • But almost entirely overlooked amid the public outrage is the massive pool of low-wage workers – especially in the sharing economy – who are vulnerable to a wide range of abuses on the job because they lack basic labor rights.
  • “We have to talk about this as a problem these platforms have created,” said Mary Anne Franks, a University of Miami law professor who studies online abuse. “[If you’re] going to set up a platform to make it possible for people to instantaneously communicate with people they don’t know ... you know full well it’s going to be abused and weaponized.”
  • The success of many on-demand companies like DoorDash depends on hiring a large, cheap workforce of contract employees who have no benefits or job security.
