Gain your Own Professional Edge…

an extract from the latest aCE talentNET Professional Edge…

As I reflect back on the FY that was I am very proud of the stickability of the aCE talentNET business and our ability to handle a GFC that took most by surprise. Whilst Australia weathered this storm better than most, when in the business of HR and Learning & Development these are always areas of spend in a business that are the first to feel the pinch… many of our clients did indeed downsize or put projects on hold, but as I told many a consultant that phoned for a little reassurance during the leaner months, it’s not personal and our clients will be back with bigger and better projects, it just being a matter of time…. and so it was! So we say farewell to another financial year and sadly we’ve been too busy at aCE talentNET to have enjoyed many EOFYSs (end of financial year sales) !!!

We are extremely excited to announce to our Network that aCE talentNET has won another Government Tender… being appointed to the Panel of HR Service Providers for IP Australia. As soon as we finalise the contracting process, we are very much looking forward to working with our new client and appointed Consulting Team over the coming months. And yet more exciting news, was the opportunity for aCE and one of our Consultancy partners to be part of an emotional intelligence diagnostic tool trial with one of our MNC’s… so watch this space for one too! We are very positive about the start to the 2010-11 financial year and what this brings for the business of aCE talentNET, it’s clients and consulting network.

For any of you with specialist skills in Emergency Response Training make sure you respond to the iFindConsultants current tender opportunity.

So onwards and upwards… and remember we are now on the downward slide to summer warmth!

The Professional Edge is aCE talentNET’s means of communicating with the community on a regular basis. It provides an update of activities, informative reading and professional development opportunities to enable you to expand your Consulting horizons.

a good mother is someone always with their children…says who?

admin — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 11:23:14 +0000

A most interesting article in TheAge this morning by Jacinta Tynan, (even if it is called “Rebecca Gibney and other mums on juggling work after baby“) discussing the whys and wherefores of working mothers and part-time jobs etc, and the new Australian legislation that came in earlier this year.

Apart from the fact that I don’t get the whole juggling thing! I know, call me crazy, but what’s with the juggle?…the key line in the article for me is the following…

…Part of the problem, Broderick says, is that most Australians have a deeply held cultural belief that a good mother is someone who is always with her children. “When you bring that belief into the workplace, it’s no wonder we are where we are.”… read on

I’m not sure I agree with this… do you?

I for one know that I am a much better mother because of what I do outside our 2-person family unit. And have always espoused this very viewpoint, so am I one of the only one’s?
I really do hope not.

the world’s richest self-made women…

admin — Thu, 17 Jun 2010 13:25:44 +0000

now this is an interesting article in TheAge.com this morning…

…in 1998 Meg Whitman took a leap of faith and accepted a job as chief executive of eBay, then a small tech firm with 30 employees. The payoff was equity in the burgeoning company.

Thanks to that decision, Whitman soon joined the ranks of the 1011 billionaires in the world. Rarer still, she’s one of just 14 female billionaires in the world right now who earned their fortunes, rather than inherited them. The richest of them is China’s Wu Yajun, worth $3.9 billion and ranked 232nd in the world in March when we published our 2010 Billionaires list. By contrast, 665 men are self-made billionaires including the three richest people in the world, Carlos Slim Helú , Bill Gates and Warren Buffett.

All of these self-made female billionaires have impressive personal stories, but the dearth of them is itself a story, and begs the question of why so few?
read on…

This is a most eye-opening read. Not only because of the low representation of self-made women billionaires (2%) but because they are there at all. I suspect this is a fairly recent phenomenon, and one which will/can only improve over time. The key of course is building such a Mother of a Business, as well as being the Mother you long to be…especially if I have anything to do with it!

A Serial Entreprenuer talks about Achieving Predictable Success

admin — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 13:07:10 +0000

For changethis.com by Les McKeown

As a serial entrepreneur who has personally launched over 40 businesses, and as a consultant and coach to hundreds of business leaders, I’ve come to realize that the ‘growth code’ is out there, in plain view for anyone who knows where to look. There is indeed a code, a pattern, a DNA if you will, to achieving predictable success. The difficulty is that because most business leaders work in a limited number of business environments during their career, they don’t have the opportunity to see the pattern recur often enough to successfully decode it….read on

There’s some fabulous stuff in this article.
Best you go make a cup of tea (or whatever tickles your fancy), sit down and have a long hard read… enjoy!

The Four-Letter Word That Makes You and Your Work Irresistible…

admin — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 12:56:30 +0000

For ChangeThis.com By Mark Sanborn

Some years ago I wrote a book about an extraordinary individual who loves his work. My editor at the time deleted the word love every place I used it. Instead, he suggested using the phrase ‘generosity of spirit.’

‘Why not love?’ I inquired.

‘Because the word love freaks out businesspeople,’ he responded.

I couldn’t agree more (great title too!)

Mass Mingling… new services? = new businesses…

The latest and greatest from trendwatching.com; well worth reading…

Long gone are the days when ‘online’ was synonymous with social isolation and loneliness. In fact, we’re now witnessing the exact opposite: technology is driving people to connect and meet up en masse with others, in the ‘real world’. It makes for an interesting, easily-digested trend, begging to be turned into new services for your customers… continue

If there are new services to be provided, that has to lend itself to new business options as well surely? As you read through this article, think about what your business is doing now, and what it might be doing in the future…

I’m one of only 3% of $1mil revenue+ Women-Owned Businesses…whoa!

admin — Thu, 20 May 2010 15:13:33 +0000

I’m one of only 3% of $1mil revenue + women-owned businesses. How’s that? Isn’t that amazing! Actually, that places me in rather exclusive, but fairly lonely, territory really. How do I know this? SHARON G. HADARY for the Wall Street Journal shares some great insights with her latest article “Why Are Women-Owned Firms Smaller Than Men-Owned Ones?”. (The statistics come from this article also.)

The phenomenal growth of women-owned businesses has made headlines for three decades—women consistently have been launching new enterprises at twice the rate of men, and their growth rates of employment and revenue have outpaced the economy.

So, it is dismaying to see that, despite all this progress, on average, women-owned business are still small compared with businesses owned by men. And while the gap has narrowed, as of 2008—the latest year for which numbers are available—the average revenues of majority women-owned businesses were still only 27% of the average of majority men-owned businesses.

While the number of women starting their own business outpaces men, revenue for female owned companies still lags behind. Hear Sharon Hadary, Former Executive Director and Founder of the Center for Women’s Business Research, discuss this trend and what women can do to improve their prospects.

There are those who will say that these numbers substantiate what they always knew: Women just don’t have what it takes to start and run a substantial, growing business. But I don’t buy that: More than a quarter of a million women in the U.S. own and lead businesses with annual revenue topping $1 million—and many of these businesses are multimillion-dollar enterprises. Clearly, many women have the vision, capacity and perseverance to build thriving companies.

So what’s holding back so many women business owners?
