JMH Aspirations Launches New Website to Help People Achieve Personal Success

UK based company JMH Aspirations has launched its eagerly awaited website for people who are currently facing redundancy, returning to work after a period of absence, or newly qualified and trying to launch their career.

(PRWEB UK) 8 March 2012

The current UK financial climate has brought many signficant challenges. Unemployment has risen, particularly amongst young adults. In the three months to December 2011, 22.2% of 16-24 year olds were reported as unemployed. According to the Office of National Statistics, although unemployment had generally levelled by February at 8.4%, 26.7 million people were still looking for work--the highest rate since 1995. There also remains growing concern over UK graduates with 25% of those leaving University at the end of the 2011 academic year still unemployed in February 2012.

There are many examples of successful people in the world today who have achieved fame and personal success, Richard Branson; Margaret Thatcher; Ralph Lauren; J. K Rowling. They have vision, purpose and personal confidence, all of which drives their strategy for success. This is all within anyones reach when they have the self- belief to achieve.

JMH Aspirations courses are desgined specifically to teach skills that assist people in recognising and unlocking their personal strengths so they can forge their path to personal and professional success. With entreprenural tax reliefs and the creation of 21 enterprise zones last year, the UK government is eager to encourage the launch and growth of new businesses. For those looking to change career and start their own business enrolling on a course can help them get started towards achieving success.

With an already busy event schedule, the team is expecting its first events in Yorkshire and Sheffield to be a success: Choose a New Path to Travel Meet Your Challenge of Redundancy/Redeployment and Develop Strategies for Your Future - Return Confidently to Your Career are events which will strive to meet the specific needs of people facing redundancy, returning to work after a period of absence or looking to start a career. The company hopes that people will leave with a positive self belief, recognise their strengths and abilities, and have confidence and sense of empowered to take that first leap in their career/life.

Dress for Success’ new location in Mott Haven offers chic business attire, job interview help for women  

Posted: March 7, 2012 at 5:51 pm


without comments

Richard Harbus/Richard Harbus for News Manager Sarai Sanabria helps clients try on clothes at the brand new "Dress For Success" shop.

Unemployed women in the Bronx are being treated like A-listers at a designer fashion show by Dress for Success, which has an official grand opening Tuesday of its Bronx location.

Dress for Success is a non-profit organization helping women achieve economic independence by providing them with professional attire as well as the tools they need to excel in job interviews and the world of employment.

The Bronx shop, at 839 E. 149th St., offers donated suits and shoes to women by referral only. It was previously located at the Davidson Community Center in University Heights.

"By relocating to the new office, we can now serve more women because we have more space," said Joi Gordon, CEO of Dress for Success Worldwide. "The street location also gives us significantly more visibility in the community. And it's more accessible for more women in the Bronx, as well as volunteers and community members."

Ashley Ruemmelly, 27, currently on welfare, was there Monday. She is interested in finding work as a home health aide, and settled on an interview outfit of matching grey skirt and jacket over a red ruffled blouse, paired with bright red patent leather kitten heeled shoes.

Her personal shopper was Sarai Sanabria, the Bronx Program Coordinator, one of two paid staffers there; the rest are either volunteers or interns.

"I don't know how many outfits I tried on," says Ruemmelly, back in the jeans and t-shirt she wore into the shop. "One after the other after the other."

She and two other women were in the light and airy lobby with a receptionist desk and small waiting area. They held large brown shopping bags with their new outfits.

The women don't have potential employers lined up yet, but 44-year-old Karen Robinson said, as she waited to be assisted, that they are "trying to be prepared, so when (employers) do call, we're decent."

Zero Reasons to Be Surprised by Square's Success

Posted: at 5:11 am

Even after plotting Square's year-long growth on a "sexy growth curve," Splat F's Dan Frommer is surprised by the company's success -- but he really shouldn't be. "It is easy to be skeptical of Square," he writes. "Which while very cool also feels like it must somehow be overhyped. (Why did my local caf stop using it? Why dont I ever see it in use? Can it really replace most cash registers? Etc.)," he continues. Whenever Square releases some landmark growth numbers, they've been met with a similarbit of surprise from tech bloggers, but the company's success is easy to understand.

RELATED: Larry Summers to Help Build the Future of Money

The company has a real stream ofrevenue. The thing about lots of tech start-ups these days, is that they rely on this idea of "value." Twee social network Pinterest, for example, has generated lots of traffic and interest and can theoretically channel all those page views into money. But, that's just a theory. For now, they only have an abstract notion of who they are valuable to (users, marketers, online retailers, etc.). Square, on the other hand, is makes money right now. Every new person who starts using Square to process payments makes the company money, as the company takes a 2.75 percent cut of every single payment, which Frommer estimates is around $300,000 gross revenue per day. Making real money is the simplest way to demonstrate value to investors (and the rest of the world).

People actually use it. So many thatThe Atlantic's Alexis Madrigal called it "mainstream," giving us this chart below back in August. Frommer might disagree, as he doesn't see the gadget around much, but these bubbles are more proof that Frommer's personal experience. The company processes more payments than PayPal did at the same stage of its growth, adds Fast Company's Ellen McGrit, who placed Square as number five on this month's most innovative company's list. More than 1 million people use Square to process credit cards, she continues.

A few months later, in October serial-entrepreneurbillionaireRichard Branson behind the many branches of Virgin,threw some money at the company. It's one thing for a startup to raise money from celebrity backers, it's quite another to convince celebrity backers to invest after a company is worth a billion dollars.

SA Healthchat a success: minister

Posted: at 5:11 am


without comments

South Australian Health Minister John Hill was swamped by so many callers on his first healthcare hotline that he and his staff couldn't answer them all.

Mr Hill and senior SA Health staff were available to the public on a two-hour HealthChat hotline on Tuesday but they were only able to answer about 110 of the more than 650 calls.

The minister says he is pleased with the result and will do it again.

But opposition health spokesman Martin Hamilton-Smith says it shows Mr Hill's inability to plan, to prepare and to deliver on promises.

"He couldn't organise a chook raffle, let alone take a few phone calls," Mr Hamilton-Smith said.

"Minister Hill's phone-in session was much like the health system he continually mismanages - overwhelmed by demand and improperly resourced.

"I'm sure many nurses, doctors and health workers across the state would agree that minister Hill's experience last night was the tip of the iceberg."

Mr Hill says the calls covered a wide range of subjects, including personal medical issues, access to services, mental health and country health.

"We're really pleased with the response and we will make sure that HealthChat is repeated soon and that it becomes a regular event," he said.

Photo Release — Extraordinary Executive Offers Uncommon Secrets to Success in Business and in Life

Posted: at 5:11 am


without comments

MIAMI, March 6, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eve Wright Taylor, Vice President and Associate General Counsel for the Miami HEAT and the AmericanAirlines Arena, is no ordinary executive. This big picture-thinking, calculated risk-taking sports industry pro has purposefully navigated her way to extraordinary success in one of the most male-dominated industries in the world--professional sports. And she did it without compromising her personal style or femininity.

A photo accompanying this release is available at http://www.globenewswire.com/newsroom/prs/?pkgid=11894

Eve's meteoric rise through the ranks of Corporate America and the professional sports industry was no easy feat. To realize such extraordinary achievement, she had to cultivate and pursue her own personal passions rather than some nebulous, pre-determined definition of success -- a philosophy far easier in theory than in execution.

With this in mind, Eve now speaks and consults nationally to assist leaders, professionals and individuals assess their lives and careers and make game-changing adjustments to help them win. She draws from her own life stories and lessons, as Eve has walked the walk, blazed new trails, and gotten considerable mileage from best practices that she has gathered while climbing the corporate ladder...and breaking down barriers along the way.

Eve is currently available for interviews and byline editorials on a myriad of novel business and lifestyle-related subjects including, but not limited to, the following:

Woman-Focused:

Lifestyle:

Unisex Career:

"Results don't happen all by themselves," Eve notes. "Whether in your business or personal life, success requires finesse, purpose and performance fueled by a positive and open-minded outlook. This is the art and science of 'Passion Sparking,' which requires defining what 'having it all' means to you. This is not a set standard, but rather is a personal vision that's in no way limited to professional achievement. True success is defined when you are realizing and living a life of passion -- one with purpose and intention."

King on CHL: Who's hot & cold

Team success is leading to personal success for the Saint John Sea Dogs.

The defending MasterCard Memorial Cup champions are turning heads and taking names with a 17-game winning streak. Overage forward Danick Gauthier, an undrafted free agent, signed with the Tampa Bay Lightning on Friday. He wasn't the only undrafted overager to sign, as Tri-City's Brendan Shinnimin inked a deal with Phoenix the same day.

Ontario Hockey League

Hot team: Plymouth Whalers

As is customary in Plymouth, the Whalers are turning in a dominant run for the stretch drive. The Whalers are riding a six-game winning streak after coming out on top in four games last week. Plymouth is now just two points back of London for top spot in the Western Conference and overall league standings. Given their second-half surge, the best could still be yet to come for the Whalers.

Cold team: Kitchener Rangers

The Rangers haven't fared too well away from home of late. Kitchener dropped its last four games, all on the road, and won just three of the last 10 games. Goaltender John Gibson returned from injury last week, but was understandably rusty after a month on the shelf. The Rangers have been outscored 26-12 during this stretch, but continue to hold the third spot in the Western Conference standings.

Game of the week: Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds vs. Windsor Spitfires, Thursday

The eighth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference standings could come down to these two teams. Windsor begins the week in eighth, while Sault Ste. Marie trails by two points with a game in hand. The Guelph Storm are also tied with Windsor in points, but have two games in hand. Among the interesting subplots is a trade the two teams made in November, which sent American world junior goaltender Jack Campbell to the Greyhounds. His team opens the week riding a two-game winning-streak, while his old team lost two straight. This game will go a long way in determining which team is in and which is out when the playoff picture is settled.
