What are your key strengths?

How well do you know about yourself?
Many of us think we know our personal strengths but in fact, very few people can provide good answer. Just telling I am a good leader or negotiator is meaningless. You need to share real life examples which prove those strengths. You should be well prepared to answer this question. Tell the strengths which are relevant to the job role. Think of relevant strengths which you have and matter to the job. Tell your strength story.
Do's
• Know thyself
• Think and tell about those strengths which enable you to excel at your job and are relevant to the role

• Back it up with real life examples and show how you will bring value to your new job
Don'ts
• Don't give a list of top ten attributes
• Don't tell your hobbies
• Don't make up strengths which you don't have and can't provide real life stories to support

Negotiation is an important life skill

We negotiate most of our waking hours. We negotiate with our team members, colleagues, bosses and vendors at work, with our kids, spouse and parents at home. We negotiate during buying or selling of an asset e.g. house, car and also conflict resolution and during salary negotiations. Negotiation is an important life skill and it contributes to our success.

If we do not negotiate well or don’t negotiate at all then there is a big chance that we are going to leave money on the table, which could have been ours. We often don’t negotiate because we feel it is inappropriate or feel uncomfortable and fear it.

“You don't get what you deserve. You get what you negotiate.” Chester Karrass
