interviewing skills
Make sure your interview is not one-sided. You should be interviewing them, too! Consider what they might want to hear from you, both in your answers and in your questions. The employer wants to know how you can benefit them, so sell yourself in a way that can convince them that they are winning by hiring you.

Owner and Talent Scout @ You & Them leadership skills
Leading can be lonely and it’s tempting to just be satisfied with status quo and failing to act when in a tough spot. I’ve found on a number of times, that action or agency, even with imperfect is better than inaction.
An example of this is based on an anecdote about a Hungarian reconnaissance unit lost in the Alps. In the poem, the soldiers faced an icy death, until their leader found a map which he used to lead the platoon to safety. On their return, however, it was found that the map was not of the Alps but of the Pyrenees.

Managing Partner @ Watershed presentation skills
Great presenters always do these 5 things:
1. Consider their audience - great presenters determine who they are talking to and how much they know about the subject to establish the purpose of the presentation.
2. Organize their thoughts - they focus on delivering three main ideas that begin with a solid opening and end with a strong close, including a call to action.
3. Channel positive energy - they maintain an open and confident body posture, use gestures to emphasize their points and show enthusiasm with facial expressions.
4. Connect and engage with listeners - they use eye contact to keep listeners engaged and to maintain a conversational feel.
5. Practice constantly - they are familiar with concepts to ensure a smoother delivery and focus on being themselves while getting they ideas across.

Founder @ Jocelin Martinez Communications Training salary negotiation skills
[While negotiating], you don't have to state your current salary - the question is not where you are, it's where you should be. Be specific and let them know what your deal breakers are.
