Process of Putting in Your Resignation at any organization

Process of Putting in Your Resignation in any organization


Whether you've loved your job from day one of you've been digging an escape tunnel under you desk for the past three years, eventually the day arrives that you leave one job in pursuit of a new opportunity. How you leave a job, though, can be just as important as what you did while you were there: a bad exit can undo all of your hard work and even tarnish your professional reputation. Here's how to put in your resignation gracefully so you don't burn any bridges you may need down the road.

Tell Your Boss First
Most of us have a best friend at work, and if you're going to be leaving a company, it might be tempting to tell that person (and a few other favorite co-workers) that you're making an exit. But in case you haven't noticed, even the best, most professional offices tend to resemble high school cafeterias, complete with cliques, tattletales, and gossip that spreads like wildfire. Do yourself and your boss a favor and let him or her know before you tell anyone else. If word gets around that you're leaving before you have a chance to formally tell your superior, it could hurt your chances of getting a reference or recommendation.

Give Appropriate Notice
We all know that two weeks is the standard amount of time you're expected to give before you leave any position. But if you're in the middle of a major project, or if you're in an upper-level position that will take awhile to fill, additional notice will be greatly appreciated by your employers. For senior level positions, giving four to six weeks is a generous notice that will give your employers the lead time they need to start finding your replacement. If you're in the middle of a major initiative, try to see the project through to completion if possible.

Offer to Help Find Your Replacement
While it's certainly not required, offering to help find your replacement will be helpful to your employers and ensure you leave your position on good terms. After all, no one knows your position better than you, and by putting out some feelers to your professional, social and alumni networks, you may be able to find a great candidate for your job. If the match works, you've not only helped out your previous employer, but a business contact who may be able to turn around and help you in the future.

Document Everything
You might work in an office that has process documents and charted work flows for every assignment, which means your successor will have a road map for doing your job. If you're like most of us though, your day-to-day projects and duties may not be written out in a step-by-step, "how to" format. Take the time to create these documents before you leave your position, and then share them with your boss. If it's going to be awhile before they have someone to replace you, make sure that someone in your office knows how to do the daily, crucial aspects of your job that could stall your organization if they're not done correctly.

Write a Resignation Letter
If you're office doesn't have a set of formal HR policies, make sure to write a letter of resignation and give a copy of it to your boss and hiring manager to put in your file. While it may not seem necessary, especially if you have a good working relationship with your employers, this protects you in the future if anyone wants verification of why you left your position.
By following the steps above, you'll leave your employer in a good position to find your replacement, and yourself in a good position to get the recommendations and references you'll need for your next career move.

The moral Principle Governing the conduct of business leadership in Career Employment Strategies

The Moral Principle Governing the Conduct of Business Leadership in Career Employment Strategies

For many years, the business world has been asking higher education to meet their needs of developing future knowledge workers who are self-leaders that take responsibility for their actions and have solid decision making and problem solving skills. An article in the Newsweek's November 13, 2006 issue indicates that higher education has yet to hear this decades long message.
In this article, a recent graduate of an Ivy League School, shared her experiences that she lacked the fundamentals from completing a W-2 to how to rent an apartment. What was interesting was that she noted that she was not alone. According to her article, she referenced a recent study of career employment (source not cited) that hundreds of employers found new college graduates "woefully unprepared" for the job market.
For years education from K-13 has focused on learning or the acquisition of knowledge, but has miserably failed on performance or the application of knowledge. Universities or higher education continue this tradition and the 21st century is reaping the results - unprepared workers who are highly intelligent, but can't negotiate themselves out of a cardboard box.
The University of Michigan Annual Recruiting Trends has documented the needs of employers for over 30 years. In its 2002 report, employers want graduates who have a passion for the position along with a total package including:
  • Verbal communication skills
  • Written communication skills
  • Leadership
  • Teamwork
  • Computer skills
  • Work ethics
  • Integrity
Dr. Carol Di-Amico in her research Workforce 2020 indicated that employers looked for the following when hiring experienced workers:
·  Leadership 73%
·  Problem solving skills 69%
·  Moral value 68%
·  Job specific skills 61%
·  Creativity 60%
·  Organizational skills 49%
·  Interpersonal skills 45%
Given that many employers are looking for skill sets that are not currently being taught at the higher academic levels and probably not at the high school levels for those not immediately attending college suggests that these institutions of learning are indeed setting many young people up to fail. This would not be such a tragedy if they were not collecting thousands of dollars.
Finally, the author of this article in Newsweek believed that she invested her dollars to better advance her thinking abilities. She further wrote that her thinking was limited to the academic world and failed to transfer into the real world. Yet, it is those same professors in the academic world who insist that those in the business world where profits and losses are both earned and measured on a daily basis do not understand how to think and that education cannot be viewed as a business. This attitude is great if you are not accountable for securing results. Until education realizes its purpose is to successfully complete the next learning sequence (that means the graduates are gainfully employed in their field of expertise for at least one year) where personal and business leadership is highly developed along with all those interpersonal skills necessary for success, this young person's experience will be multiplied by thousands more and our nation will continue to suffer.
