Your Work Does Not Speak For Itself-You Do - Paperback

by Rick Gillis (Author)

You were taught not to brag. This foundational idea remains with far too many people well into their professional lives where they believe promoting themselves on the job is bragging. It's not.

Written for both employers and the people they employ, Your Work Does Not Speak For Itself-You Do, brings this discussion into focus for your professional development and financial well-being no matter where you work and no matter what you do.

Author Trainer & Speaker Rick Gillis shows you how to professionally promote yourself using the QTNT ('quotient'), a process he created and illustrates through several compelling Q-Studies-true stories of actual clients not able to place a value on work they had produced for previous employers. Interestingly, before now, no one has ever been able to quantifiably measure the value a 'paycheck worker' delivers to their company similar to the way a sales professional's performance can be determined.

With the QTNT everyone can now identify and defend the value they deliver to their organization.

Waiting for someone else to speak up on your behalf? Don't. Your Work Does Not Speak for Itself-You Do!

Keywords: Performance Assessment, Professional Advancement, Fair Pay, Salary Negotiation, Personal Promotion & Getting Paid What You Are Worth.
