for someone looking for a coach / mentor, would I need to look for someone in my field of work specifically or would a general coach work?

Mentors arw people who have been in your field and are doing what you want so they share how they got there and will likely recommend the same for you or share what they wished they did. Coaches , in my experience and what I do, can coach anyone because it's not about it worked for me so do this approach, it's about what you want and finding the best way to get you there that feels aligned for you! So deciding what you prefer coach or mentor comes first! If you are interested in seeing what support from a coach looks like, email me at krysta@krystapogge.com and I'm happy to share and support you on a complimentary call so you can get clarity on what support feels most aligned for you in moving forward!

I agree with the previous poster. A coach doesn't have to be someone who has experience in your industry/role. You want to find a coach who has a style you like. And someone who has a process that resonates with the kind of work that you want to do.

thank you.

I heard that if we are on the bench for more than 2 months and if the resources management team share our profile with HR, then HR asks to share the screen and put in the registration? Is that true?

Are ppl worried about being on the bench esp when there aren’t a lot of projects in the pipeline? New hire here about to be up for staffing for the first time and sentiment at my firm seems to be worried/fearful about being unstaffed. Is it actually worrisome to be on the bench in this environment or is this just a product of highly ambitious over achievers worrying about not being constantly utilized?

Motivation is key when it comes to bettering yourself, your team and your brand. Without self-motivation, you'll be less likely to inspire your team to work together to better your business. Like a muscle, self-motivation becomes stronger the more you use it. Mastering the art of self-motivation will take some time to become a habit. However, with daily practice, you'll not only better yourself and your business, you'll inspire your team to lead more meaningful personal and professional lives.

There's a lot of backstory to this but I can only type so much SO I've been with my company for 10.5 hours and just found out they've increased their base pay for starting employees $3-5/hr. I have received my annual 3-4% raises, only because I always make sure to ask for it, but nothing more. They didn't even acknowledge my 10 year anniversary with the company and it's a pretty small company (less than 100 employees). I feel I should get a $3-5/hr raise since the base pay was raised. Thoughts?
