Because if you do and apply just one thing, from one of our guests this week - you will change the way you work.
For instance - Be positive! Author of the book The No Complaining Rule Jon Gordon tells us about a company that actually instituted a no complaining rule. Being positive saved the company millions of dollars (and who couldn’t use an extra couple of million dollars).
Be Creative - The Coaches Training Institute brings us career coach Michele Mchall who says that part of the reason we never achieve our goals is due to the fact we don’t unlock our inner creativity (P.S. Michele is super groovy).
Be Green - Elizabeth Eastman from the San Francisco Department of Environment gives us a few tips on how to make our workplace a little more Eco Friendly.
Be Adaptable - Resident employment lawyer Dennis Strazulo points out that your hours at work can change at any time - its your employers legal right.

After months of hype and hysteria it is finally Shark Week on The JOB Radio show.
Did you know something like 24.7 million people watch Shark Week on the Discovery Channel - if just .00008 perecnt of those people tune into The JOB, we’ll have 17 more listeners than normal!
If you think that this whole shark theme is just a silly radio stunt….. you are flat wrong. How could loan sharks, people who swim with sharks and authors who write about sharks at work - be just stunts.
All that plus our regulars, Jennifer Lee of CTI, Dennis Strazula and Andrew Gardiner mix in their shark stories…
Don’t be scared - “the Landshark is considered the cleverest of all sharks. Unlike the great white shark, which tends to inhabit the waters and harbors and recreational beach areas, the Land Shark may strike at any place, anytime. It is capable of disguising its voice, and generally preys on young, single women.”
