Q. Yesterday I was interviewed for a job that sounds really good. One question stumped me: ?What kind of boss do you like to work for?? Caught by surprise Taylor Rapp Womens Jersey , I said, ?I like a boss who's available to answer questions and give me feedback.?

How do I prepare for next time?

A. Whether you're interviewing for a job, networking or making a client presentation, you've entered a business relationship. And business relationships differ from friendships.

So when you enter a business or a sports arena, you put on a uniform and wear your game face. You follow the rules. Long-time successful players (like Diana Taurasi and Michael Jordan) know the rules so well they can trust their intuition.

But most of us will view networking events and interviews as, well Cory Littleton Womens Jersey , a new ball game. We don't practice every day. Whole years ? even decades ? go by without a job interview. So when we come to the game, most of us need to be self-consciously aware of what we are doing.

1. Focus on the game, not your feelings.

Before and after your business encounter, you can (and should) share feelings and concerns openly with a coach, consultant or counselor. But when you're face to face in a business meeting, your game face becomes part of your dress-for-success plan.

A networking acquaintance asks Robert Woods Womens Jersey , ?How are things going?? You know he doesn't want to hear about problems with suppliers, child care or your crazy boss. Time to share a success story, matter-of-factly, without bragging.

2. Create your playbook before you enter the arena.

Anticipate questions whenever possible. Talk to others with more recent experience.

The other team has a three-point lead and you have sixty seconds left in the game. They have the ball.

I must admit I was surprised the first time I heard a sportscaster explain, ?At this level, the coach has already diagrammed the plays for situations like this one.? But it makes sense for sports and business Jared Goff Womens Jersey , too.

3. Create a game plan for surprises.

You can't plan for every contingency. Opposing coaches come up with creative plays and interviewers come back from a conference with new questions.

One trick I share with clients: As you hear each question, ask yourself, ?What answer will show I understand the game and am prepared to play by the rules??

So you're asked, ?What kind of boss do you like??

Most likely, your prospective employer doesn't care what style of leadership you prefer. If you're working for a big company, chances are you'll have multiple bosses in one year Cooper Kupp Womens Jersey , each with different personalities, management styles and expectations.

But your company does care about accomplishment.

For a for-profit company, you might talk about working for a results-oriented boss. You then talk about the importance of contributing to the bottom line.

Non-profits are guided by mission so you fine-tune your response.

4. Recognize that the game can change in the blink of an eye.

Of course, you may realize that you will not be able to function in the environment presented by this organization. You can withdraw from the game altogether.

But I encourage clients not to leave too fast. Just as a basketball game can reverse in the last twenty seconds, a job can change overnight. Literally.

5. Plan for getaways.

Some people live for their game and their work. I know some Internet marketers who work sixteen hours a day ? happily. Some players and coaches live for the game, especially during March Madness. They relax by shooting around on the court.

But most of us need breaks and getaways. We need to step back to gain perspective. And everyone I know needs a place to take off the game face and relax Gerald Everett Womens Jersey , if only for a little while.

All along, I am eager to have a pair of discount nike shox, but because of the resisitance of the real environment, I have no chance to own them. And not long time ago, I find the a online store put excellent nike items on sale, so I order one pair for myself without any hesitate. But since then Todd Gurley II Womens Jersey , I put myself in worry.

Days immediately after order cheap nike shox r3 I noticed loads of critiques about them. I was really fearful, due to the fact much evaluations saied the footwear are undesirable, not simply use a unhealthy also couldn’t arrived on time. Even you may acquire wrong size. Soon after read the critiques, I feel a bit regret to purchase from nike shox r3 sale. It’s been 7 days coming, I nonetheless not get the sneakers, then I turn out to be much more apprehensive Aaron Donald Womens Jersey , so contact with the buyer service representtative. She answered my question enthusiastic. The goods have been disoatatched for various days, will receive I can’t ask extra, and just have to waiting for your shox r3 shoes.

Despite the fact that I was still nervous about sneakers will have some difficulty, but my mother told me that possibly we have an excellent luck, and the comments written on the network is actually not all right, so please assume nothing of it. If the cheap nike shox is snug as the seller described Eric Dickerson Womens Jersey , you be concerned is redundant.
