GINA ANDERSON, MEDIA RELATIONS SPECIALIST

KERRY MCGUIRE, ENGINEER I’m a human factors engineer primarily working on technology for exploration. As you’re designing a new technology, you have to make sure that what you are designing will work for the individual who has to use it. I am always looking for the human first and making sure that the system fits the human’s needs instead of the human having to fit into a system that was not designed for them. When they did tests on the ISS, they took a picture of a crewmember who was using one of the displays I designed and I thought, ‘I did that!’ They actually interacted with something that I designed. It’s humbling, but it also reminds you why you do what you do which is very rewarding.

I work closely with engineers, scientists and communicators to tell the agency's technology advancement stories, striving to engage and inspire the public, stakeholders and new generations of explorers. In addition to overseeing news products and other information disseminated to the public via the media or the internet, I help craft NASA's technology-themed messages.

5 Seldom-Mentioned Ways to

IMPRESS YOUR BOSS

By John Dunnery

We all know the best ways to impress the boss. You work harder than everyone else, do higher quality work than everyone else, and demonstrate infinite flexibility and adaptability. That’s it, right? Well … not quite.

Those are all effective ways to attract attention (the good kind) and advance your career. However, the smartest employees also do a variety of other things to ensure that they are recognized and appreciated by the manager. Here are five seldom-mentioned ways to impress any boss.

1. Go below your station (occasionally). Your manager will be very impressed if you show a willingness to occasionally work below your level.

For instance, if you’re the accountant and a couple of your staff are sick, you could help out with the data entry to ensure that the numbers for the quarterly financial reports are available on time. Or, if you run the warehouse, you could pitch in to load a truck so that an important delivery is not delayed.

2. Show personal interest. While you should never intrude upon your boss’s privacy, there may be opportunities to relate to him/her on a personal level.

If your manager sometimes talks about their children, you could ask how the children are doing in school … or whether they’re enrolled in any special programs during summer vacation, and so on. If your boss mentions a hobby, you could ask what related projects they are currently pursuing – or share anecdotes about your own hobby. This creates a personal bond and opens the manager’s eyes to your personal qualities.

3. Take over something the boss doesn’t like to do. Your manager is only

so undoubtedly FEBRUARY 1, 2019 there are job tasks that he/she doesn’t really enjoy.

12human,

So, if it is feasible for you to do so (and if it’s not disallowed by relevant company policies), you could offer to take responsibility for a task they hate. For instance, if you’re the assistant manager, you could volunteer to supervise any co-op students (and do the paperwork for the educational institution) and interns accepted by the organization.

4. Acknowledge an error. Obviously this is a suggestion that you should only consider if it applies! But of the shoe fits … definitely put it on. While it is normally advisable to emphasize our achievements and downplay any inadequacies, there are times when acknowledging an error in a forthright manner is the best policy. Pick a good time to communicate with your boss, then indicate the error and express regret for any negative impact upon the organization. Your manager will be impressed by your honesty and your willingness to take ownership of a mistake.

5. Thank your boss for something. This is something that many employees neglect. Like anyone else, your manager appreciates appreciation! If he/she made a special effort to perform a thorough and accurate annual performance appraisal, acknowledge the fact with sincerity. Or, if he/she pulled out all the stops to organize a great office party, make a point of saying so. Because this doesn’t happen as often as it should, your boss will remember that you expressed gratitude.

There is no doubt that working hard and contributing consistently are the best ways to impress any manager. However, there are some other ways to make a good impression. These five methods will help to ensure that your boss notices you and sees you in a positive light.

PUBLIC SPEAKING -

13

By Jeff Magnuson

Tips to Become More Confident When Speaking to a Group

Public speaking and the ability to present effectively in front of a group of people is a craft. I hesitate to call it a skill because skills seem more finite while a craft can always be refined.

Some might think that anyone can get up in front of a room full of people and present. I would counter that with, can anyone simply act, sing, or play an instrument? Like those other forms of expression, if you want to get really good, if you want to have confidence instead of being nervous, then you need to practice.

So many people are terrified of public speaking. This article is not about why people are so frightened to speak.

The point of this article is to argue that public speaking and presenting do not need to be scary. If you take advantage of the opportunities to present, then you will certainly get better. People will notice if you present well and it's also a great weapon to have in your professional arsenal.

Use the following steps below as a rough starting point but never underestimate the importance of practicing as much as you can.

1. KEEP YOUR COOL Stuff happens.

Whether you're speaking to 10 people or 300 people, there will almost always be a disruption or a distraction. A group of people laughing in the back, a co-worker who cannot stop asking questions, an obnoxiously loud sneeze, a phone ringing, etc.

Stay calm and never apologize for having to stop, even for a moment.

If you're cool, everyone else will be cool.

You might find that the work-horse projector that your company has had since you started working there decides to call it a career when you get to slide 3.

This isn't a disaster.

All this means is that now your audience really needs to pay close attention to what you have to say, which is a great thing!

Additionally, it won't matter whether your slide deck is being projected behind you because you knew to...

2. PREPARE "I'll just wing it."

"I'll figure it out when I get up there."

While almost anyone can get up and read off of a projected slide, that does not mean it is a good presentation. You may get through all of the material but the audience will know that you did not prepare. There is a noticeable difference between a polished, rehearsed presentation and one that is done "off the cuff ".

Your audience is giving you their attention whether they have to be there or want to be there. Show them the respect of a prepared presentation.

Rehearse your presentation 5-7 times and use a timer to see how long it takes you (it's usually longer than you think).

Rehearse standing up with your laptop so you can coordinate advancing the slides in line with your talking points.

1, 2019THE MATERIAL, DO NOT MEMORIZE 2A.FEBRUARY REALLY KNOW 22

You will get interrupted. If the material becomes ingrained, then you can pick up from wherever you left off without any issues.

If there are specific figures that you need to communicate, write them down on an index card. Give yourself a break. Don't stress over a data point or two.

3. CREATE CONCISE, VISUAL SLIDES The bulk of the information and the story-telling needs to come from you. Let the slides be a guide with key points, figures, and visuals. Also, use the animation feature to slowly build the slide.

This allows you to manage how much information your audience sees at any time and keeps them focused on you instead of a new, full slide of data. And once you start your presentation...

4. LOOK AT YOUR PROJECTED SLIDES ONLY IF ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY The audience does not need to see the back of your head. If your slides are visual and concise, simply tell people where to look or point in the general direction for emphasis. While the laser pointer/cat toy does exist, no one on earth has a steady hand and that red light is usually more distracting than helpful.

An easy way for you to know what slide you're on is to have the laptop that is projecting the presentation face you so that you can easily see what everyone else sees (without having to turn around).

5. B-R-E-A-T-H-E AND RELAX Most people know it takes guts to stand up in front of a room and present. People want you to succeed, especially if you're presenting to colleagues. The audience is there for you. You're already prepared. Deliver what you have practiced.

Also, keep the hand/arm gestures to a minimum. It's a waste of energy and doesn't add much value.

6. LOOK AT EVERYONE AND MAKE EYE CONTACT What I've learned after presenting many times is that people will listen to what you have to say even if they look completely miserable while you are presenting. You need to trust that if you are delivering a confident, thoughtful presentation then you will have their attention.

Transportation and material moving.

Ridesharing apps have helped to create opportunities for workers who provide transportation to passengers as needed, and on-demand shopping services have led to gig jobs for delivery drivers.

PROS AND CONS OF GIG WORK

Gig workers may do varied tasks, but they have similar things they enjoy—and don’t— about their arrangements.

Freedom to work as they please is what many people like, but with autonomy comes responsibility. For example, it can be stressful for gig workers to ensure that they have consistent income. “When you’re a freelancer, you make the decisions, which is fantastic,” says Theresa Anderson of Las Vegas, Nevada, who does graphic design projects part time from her home. “But it can also be really scary.”

Pros R�an Heenan works whenever, wherever. He’s a songwriter who sells customized jingles and videos online to clients worldwide.

“It’s real�y a dream come true,” s�ys Heenan. “It gives me the freedom to set my own hours. And I can do wh�t I do anywhere there’s an Internet connection.”

filmmaker in Los Angeles, California. When she’s between filmmaking projects, Hayes picks up gigs that include working as a personal assistant, helping people move, and making deliveries. “I’m able to work when I need money and take off when I need to,” she says. “That’s the beauty of it.”

Heenan is one of many people in the socalled gig economy. But there is no official definition of the “gig economy”—or, for that matter, a gig. For purposes of this article, a gig describes a single project or task for which a worker is hired, often through a digital marketplace, to work on demand.

The BLS Occupational Outlook Handbook (OOH) covers about 83 percent of the jobs in the U.S. economy. Its 329 detailed profiles of occupations are sorted by group. This section highlights some of those groups in which gig work may be increasingly relevant, giving examples of occupations in each.

Some gigs are a type of short-term job, and some workers pursue gigs as a self-employment option; those concepts aren’t new. However, companies connecting workers with these jobs through websites or mobile applications (more commonly known as apps) is a more recent development.

Arts and design. Many occupations in this group, including musicians, graphic designers, and craft and fine artists, offer specific one-time services or customized products, which makes them good candidates for gig work.

THE GIG WORKFORCE

Gig workers are spread among diverse occupation groups and are not easily identified in surveys of employment and earnings. But they are similar in the way they earn money.

These workers often get individual gigs using a website or mobile app that helps to match them with customers. Some gigs may be very brief, such as answering a 5-minute survey.

Others are much longer but still of limited duration, such as an 18-month database management project. When one gig is over, workers who earn a steady income this way must find another. And sometimes, that means juggling multiple jobs at once.

FEBRUARY 1, 2019

OCCUPATIONS FOR GIG EMPLOYMENT

Gigs are more likely in some occupations than in others. Work that involves a single task, such as writing a business plan, lends itself well to this type of arrangement. Any occupation in which workers may be hired for on-demand jobs has the potential for gig employment.

Computer and information technology.

Web developers, software developers, and computer programmers are among the occupations in this group in which workers might be hired to complete a single job, such as to create a small-business website or a new type of software.

Construction and extraction. Carpenters, painters, and other construction workers frequently take on individual projects of short duration, a hallmark of gig jobs.

Media and communications. The services of technical writers, interpreters and translators, photographers, and others in this group are often project-based and easy to deliver electronically, fueling a market for gig workers.

Gig workers say that they like being in control. They can choose projects they enjoy and schedule their work around their lives.

Flexibility. People who want to work without having set hours may look for gigs to fit their schedules. “I log on and work when I want,” says Ariana Baseman, a rideshare driver in Detroit, Michigan, who transports passengers in her spare time, in addition to working a traditional, full-time job. “It’s that flexible.”

Like other types of flexible employment arrangements, gigs may offer workers an option for adaptability. “The thing that I love about it is the freedom,” says Nick Walter, of Salt Lake City, Utah, who creates online classes in computer programming. “If you decide you want to go on vacation, you can do that.”

Variety. Gigs may provide workers with a chance to try several types of jobs. As a result, they present variety and career exploration to both new and experienced workers.

“Take opportunities when they arise,” says Heenan. “You have a lot of chances to do different things.”

And if you’re a “people person,” gig work may offer interaction with a diverse clientele. “I love that I get to constantly work with different people,” says Hayes. “I’m pretty social, so I enjoy meeting all types.”

Passion. You might want to select gigs the same way you would traditional employment: by finding work in which you pursue your interests. And depending on how you schedule your gigs, you might be able to choose among many passions.

Some workers take gigs that allow them to encourage others in a field they enjoy. For example, retired business owner Tamma Ford of Seattle, Washington, takes consulting gigs that let her share her expertise with people who are just getting started.

VOL. 24 ISSUE 1177

Cons There’s a lot of uncertainty associated with gig work. For example, you’ll need to have a steady stream of gigs to get consistent pay.

Even then, the amount you earn may not offset some of the costs you’ll be responsible for outside of a traditional employment relationship, such as benefits.

Inconsistency. Landing enough work to provide a stable income from gigs alone isn’t always easy, or even possible. As a result, many gig workers find gigs adequate for part-time work but not a full-time career.

Workers may struggle with looking for jobs, not knowing what—if anything—will come next. “Sometimes you’re not making any money because you’re not getting any work,” says Baseman. “That part’s not really in your control.” And even after you complete a gig, you may face periods of no income if there are delays in getting paid.

Scheduling. Not having set hours or an employer who provides direction for the day is challenging for some gig workers. “Unless you’re a very dedicated, self-motivated individual, it can be hard to focus,” says Walter.

“There’s no one telling you what to do, no deadlines.”

And depending on the gig, you may need to work nonstandard days or times to finish a job. If you get a gig requiring hours on the weekend, for example, you might not be able to spend time with friends who have traditional 9-to-5 workweeks.

Lack of benefits. Gig workers don’t usually get employer-paid benefits, such as premiums on health insurance and contributions to retirement plans. You’ll need to research these topics and pay for the products yourself. “I took things like health insurance for granted,” says Heenan of his former job, working at a school. “When you freelance, you have to find those things on your own, and it’s expensive.”

Other benefits that gig workers often miss out on are annual leave and sick leave. Like any employees who don’t get paid time off, no work means no pay.

Getting Gigs There are different ways to get started in the gig economy. Identify what you do well and what you might enjoy doing. Then, search for opportunities while keeping in mind some practical matters.

Scoping out the market for your services will help you determine how much to charge—or even whether you should pursue your plan.

“Start to get a feel for the value of your work,” says Orlando Rivera, who does general handiwork and construction, among other tasks, in Brooklyn, New York. Ford learned a lot by looking at the profiles of others who were doing the types of tasks she wanted to do: nonfiction writing, translation, and business consulting.

Build your base. Regardless of how you get gigs, referrals and positive feedback from clients are key. If you build a reputation for quality work, people may be more likely to seek you out for future gigs.

Stand out. Figure out ways to differentiate yourself from other workers, such as by offering a service that is unique or in high demand. You might want to consider becoming self-employed as a way to fill that niche.

BE REALISTIC

As mentioned previously, gig workers may be counted among workers who are self-employed. Some industries are projected to have more growth than others in the number of self-employed jobs over the 2014–24 decade. For example, home health care services is projected to grow rapidly and add many self-employed jobs over the decade.

FIND OPPORTUNITIES

Many gig workers use a platform (usually a third-party company that has a website or an app) to help connect them with jobs. But others find work off platform (such as through networking). Still others get gigs from both sources.

Sign up. Applying to work with a gig platform may involve providing information about yourself and your services. If you create a profile, be sure it’s professional and complete.

But, Walter cautions, consider taking gigs on the side until you’re sure you like working this way. “All these places make it so easy to just jump in and start doing something,” he says.

“Get signed up and try it. But don’t quit your day job.”

Consider off-platform work. With some types of work, you may be able to find jobs without the help of an intermediary. Many gig platforms take a cut of the money paid for services, so your work may be more profitable if you find jobs yourself.

To get gigs off platform, you might advertise your services by distributing flyers or posting on a website. You might also try to drum up business by connecting through community associations or your local chamber of commerce.

In fact, successful gig workers often say that many of their jobs are from repeat business.

“Treat every task as an opportunity to perform your best,” says Rivera, “and have fun while you’re at it.”

Deciding to take a gig approach to earning money requires patience, budgeting, and adaptability.

Give it time. Expect that it will take time to learn what works, and what doesn’t, when pursuing gigs. It may take a few tries before you figure out which keywords to use when searching for jobs, for example. And even then, it could take months to get gigs regularly.

Anderson started out doing graphic design gigs as a hobby for about a year, eventually building up to 10 to 15 hours per week of supplemental income. “Don’t think you’re going to make a fortune overnight,” she says.

Manage money. Even if you’re patient about making money, you should have a backup plan: figure out what you’ll do for income if you don’t get enough gig work to pay the bills.

You might want to work a more traditional job, in addition to doing gigs, at least at first.

Managing finances is an important part of making gig arrangements viable. As a gig worker, you’ll need to keep track of the money you earn. You should also set aside some of your income for other purposes, such as an emergency fund for unplanned expenses.

Be adaptable. Not every gig is a good fit, and it’s okay to trust your instincts. “If it doesn’t feel right,” says Ford, “let it go.” Gig workers also advise changing tactics when what you’re doing isn’t going well.

To stay competitive in the gig economy, be prepared to keep learning. For example, Anderson takes advantage of free graphic design tutorials whenever they’re offered, keeping her skills current to grow her business over time. “The more I do graphic design, the more I love it,” she says of her gig work. “I genuinely want to do this and make it a career.”

CREATE YOUR NICHE

Think about the types of services you might be able to offer. What skills, experience, or other assets do you have that you can share?

Consider that some gigs are for general tasks and others require a specific skillset.

Learn from others. When you have an idea of the type of work you’d like to do, talk to people who are already doing it. Or browse blogs or other resources to learn from the experiences of others.

GENERAL

When looking around the room, locate those people who give you a slight nod when you are speaking. Find them and return back to them during the presentation if you feel yourself needing some quick reassurance.

7. SMILE Unless you're presenting disappointing news... smile. You will feel better and you will notice at least a few people in the audience smile back. It's kind of strange but it happens every time. This also helps you to relax (#5).

No Experience Necessary!

8. SILENCE IS YOUR FRIEND, VERBAL CLUTTER IS NOT

Are you passionate about helping others?

You do not need to fill your entire time with meaningless words, phrases, "ums", "uhs", or "ya knows". If you pause to let a thought or an idea sink in (or just to gather your own thoughts), the audience will not become impatient. It may feel like a long time to you but it's literally seconds. Use it to your advantage especially when trying to highlight important points or topics. This leads to...

Don’t miss this opportunity to find career success and fulfillment while you help people reach their highest

9. REPEAT IMPORTANT POINTS

This is especially true for longer presentations. Audience members will zone out from time to time. It's inevitable. If there are a few points that you absolutely HAVE to make, say them twice... with a pause in the middle. Pausing will also break the audience out of their potential daydream and bring them back to you. Then you can deliver the punchline with greater effectiveness.

10. END STRONG Deliver the last 2 or 3 sentences, which should bring the whole presentation together, slowly and clearly. You can even turn the slides off so people look right at you and give you their full attention. Once done, pause for a second, smile, and say thank you.

11. INVITE QUESTIONS (IF APPLICABLE) 12. GET FEEDBACK Later on, ask anyone who was in the audience for his or her thoughts. As I said, presenting is a craft and can always be refined.

Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Jeff_Magnuson/2540443

In fact, if there is a way to video record your performance, that's even better. As awkward and awful as watching yourself is, it will only help you improve.

13. DON'T GIVE UP You stumbled or fumbled over a section? One or two parts dragged on too long?

It's fine.

There was a reason for it. Learn from it and improve for next time. Simple as that.

These steps are based on my observations over the last few years and can serve as a general guide.

Take advantage of the opportunities to present to a group as they may not come along too often. My guess is that you won't have to fight off too much competition either.

Remember, there is really nothing that can occur during your time presenting that you cannot ultimately control or manage... so go for it!

level of independence!

Dave Says

BY DAV E R A M S E Y

Dave Ramsey is America’s trusted voice on money & business. He has authored five New York Times best-selling books, including The Total Money Makeover. The Dave Ramsey Show is heard by more than 8.5 million listeners each week on more than 550 radio stations.

Follow Dave on Twitter at @DaveRamsey & on the web at daveramsey.com.

LET HER TAKE CARE OF THE PAYMENTS Dear Dave, My daughter is in college, and I’ve always warned her to stay away from credit cards. Recently, I learned she got a department store credit card despite my advice. She has stayed within her credit limit, but she has never made any of the payments. At this point, she owes about $3,500. She’s a good student, and I want to look at this as a young person’s mistake. Should I pay it off for her this one time?

Joseph Dear Joseph, You’re right, this is a typical young person’s mistake. Like a lot of mistakes our kids make, it’s one that’s bad and wonderful at the same time. It’s bad because, if she had just listened to dear old dad, she would’ve avoided a mess. It’s wonderful, though, because it gives you the opportunity to provide her with a real world, teachable moment.

I understand you wanting to help her out “this one time.” It means you have a good heart, and that you care about your daughter and love her. There’s a reality here, though, I hope you won’t overlook.

It’s her debt, not yours. She knew what she was doing when she signed up for that credit card. She knew what it meant, what was expected, and she is the one who should have to make good on the repayment. The entire deal is legal and fair.

At this point, my advice is to put your arm around her, talk to her, and lovingly explain where she went wrong and why it was a bad idea. You can even help her find a part-time job if she doesn’t have one right now, so she can pay off her debt and get out of this mess.

But leave the payments to her. My guess is by the time she finishes working her tail off to pay this debt she will have learned a lesson she’ll remember for the rest of her life!

—Dave
