Motivation refers to the forces within a person that affect the direction, intensity, and persistence of voluntary behavior.

Motivated people are willing to exert a particular level of effort (intensity), for a certain amount of time (persistence), toward a particular goal (direction).

Put your game face on. You've got the determination to go the distance!

For many reasons, one being the Covid-19 pandemic, our view on the importance of “what, why, and how” to work has undergone a seismic shift over the past few years. Nothing seems like it has been before and most of us think and rethink this relationship to which we have given, without being conscious of it, a large portion of our lives. This is true for men, but even more so for women.

We are asking, “What does work really mean to me?” “Am I passionate about this work?” “Is there room for personal growth?” Powerful, probing and potent questions that those of us from all generations – down to Gen Z - are asking ourselves. Aren’t we all searching for the right answers? Searching for meaning, fulfillment, significance – in the end, joy? Finding joy in our daily life and our careers is one of our greatest aspirations as human beings....

Partnering with Kyle Longacre (Program Administrator, College and Career Readiness - Montgomery County Intermediate Unit) to create pathways to opportunity to emerging leaders entering into the workplace is a wonderful experience. He leads MontcoWorks NOW, and along with staff and coaches (including Hakim K. Jones), provides services, coaching and professional and leadership development skills to those who may not otherwise have access to these opportunities. The pictures are from the last day of the 3-day Career Readiness Training for the cohort of interns beginning their new jobs with employers that include various departments within Montgomery County, CADCOM, Valley Force Tourism and Convention Center, and more! LeTonya Clark, Founder and Principal Consulting of Altitude Consulting and Coaching LLC, provided the on-site workforce development coaching and training for the day, facilitated.

Everyone, at one point or another, wants to be known for something and whether we realize it or not all of us, in fact, already are. Consider when a family member, friend, business associate, or industry colleague thinks of us. Something comes to mind - an adjective, an emotion, an experience or encounter. These mental impressions are how they categorize us; this categorization becomes the reputation we have with them. This reputation is how we are "branded" in the minds of those we know.

If you are in career transition, carefully considering and designing your professional brand will be a useful tool that will help you articulate your aspirations to others and create the "sound bites" you want others to use when they speak of you in their networks.
