In business, there are four P’s that will play a big role in your success. The possibilities present in these present-day principles are as pivotal as your propensity to perfectly memorize Peter F. Drucker’s management philosophy. And your Office Depot discount coupons can play a positive role!
Plan for Tomorrow
Planning is an essential part of management success. In fact, it is the first step of the management process and it is the one step that permeates everything in the process; you have to plan as you organize, lead, control, monitor, evaluate and then plan again based on the results.
You have to plan even for something as seemingly trivial as when to use your Office Depot discount coupons. You will be saving money when you use these Office Depot discount coupons whenever you buy your office supplies. When you add in recycling measures, you will have cut costs more than the discount offered by the coupons!
Indeed, planning for savings is a very smart idea, even if you have to start with office supplies. Then you can start planning for bigger, better businesses.
Play Office Politics
Even if you are only employing 2 persons in your home business, there will be office politics. Always remember that when you refuse to play it, you will find yourself inadequately equipped to deal with it. You can at least learn and understand the rules, or better yet, be the one to implement the rules.
Also, bear in mind that inconsequential matters can flare into big issues when not properly addressed in a timely manner. Even the matter of who gets to use what Office Depot discount coupons can quickly escalate into an argument. However, look into possibilities that the misuse of Office Depot discount coupons can be a symptom of deeper issues.
Standard Operating Procedures
Ideally speaking, standard operating procedures should be followed to the letter. Unfortunately, this is seldom the case. People have free will, places have rhythms of their own, and processes can go haywire, whether you like them to or not.
Try to learn how processes and things actually get done. Even if you have a manual on bureaucracy, ask around. It could not hurt to know a few things not contained in the manual, and even if it is contained, it is usually buried under tons of legalese and in fine print, to boot.
This applies to your business as well. Do not assume that everything gets done according to your instructions; ask and you will know.
People, People
The best is saved for last. Always remember that your people – customers and employees – are the most important P in your business. Nothing gets done without people, not even in your “paperless” business.
Remember that when your treat your people like numbers, you are preventing your business from meeting its numbers. Not even the entire stock of Office Depot discount coupons can help you cut office costs and increase profits!
So there you have it, the four P’s- Planning, Politics, Procedures and People. Know them, learn them by heart, and practice them. When you do, you are one step closer to meeting your all-important number – profits!
How do I become a corporate pilot?
I am a young aviator, only 17. I love to fly and I have been doing it for many years. I have no real desire to fly for commercial (Delta, AA, U.S Airways, FedEx, etc.).
I do not think that companies such as Petsmart, Home Depot, FedEx, and companies like that have a “pilot wanted” ad on their website.
How do you become a corporate pilot? Is it all in networking?
I am fully aware that I will be working my up in the aviation industry. I know I wont go from Diamonds and Cessnas to Challengers and Hawkers. I was only curious as how these pilots are selected.
I am a corporate pilot, I fly Citation Xs, Bravos, and Sovereigns. Being a corporate pilot can range from working for a single person who owns a piston powered Cessna, making less than $25,000 a year, all the way to flying Boeing 767s for a Fortune 500 company with a huge flight department and making over $180,000 a year. Not all of those jobs are “cushy”. I constantly lived on my pager and had to be immediately available to cover for a sick pilot or take the executives to an emergency conference at a moment’s notice. You aren’t covered by a pilot’s union at a corporate job either. As an airline pilot, you are there for the duration of the flight, maybe you spend a little time before and after at the briefing office. A corporate pilot might spend all day long in the hangar, on the phone, or sitting bored while waiting to make the return trip. So don’t think that it’s always better at a corporate job…it often is much harder work. The best thing you can do is join NBAA…National Business Aircraft Association or go to their website…they may have a free directory that lists all their members.
Assuming you want to fly fancy jets for a decent sized company and make decent wages, you need to realize that their minimum requirements are usually MUCH higher than for entry level airline pilots. At my company you need 2000 total time for the insurance requirements, just to be a First Officer, and we have never put anyone into the left seat with less than 6000 hours total and 1000 hours in type. The only way you are going to get that time is to start at a regional airline or fractional airline that operates multiengine turbine aircraft, OR get really lucky and know someone in the flight department who might cut you a break with only 1000 hours of time with a couple hundred of that in multi-engine pistons.
You don’t HAVE to know someone to get a corporate job, but it sure does help especially if you don’t have a lot of experience.
