Nely Galán Self-Made Woman, Immigrant, Latina

Nely Galán Self-Made Woman, Immigrant, Latina When I came to this country from Cuba as a little girl, the U.S. had just come through the women’s movement of the 1960s. Gloria Steinem, the inspirational activist and founder of Ms. magazine, was its iconic leader. As a child learning how to navigate a new culture, I wasn’t aware of the dramatic changes. All I knew was that this country offered my family a safe place to restart our lives. My parents arrived in the U.S. with nothingâ€"we’d left behind our home and all of our possessionsâ€"and we started over. With hard work and sacrifice, we believed we could build a better life, as generations of immigrants did before us. No one was going to come and take away our homes and everything we’d worked for.

As I grew up and got an education, I learned more about the advances and opportunities forged by feminist pioneers like Steinemâ€"politicians and writers who inspired so many courageous women to break through boundaries and fight for equal rights. Despite the traditional values I was raised with as a Latinaâ€"and the sometimes old-fashioned ideas of what a young woman should and should not doâ€"the women’s movement resonated with me. As an immigrant, I believed this was the greatest country in the world for women and I wanted to take full advantage. I started working when I was 13 and learned some tough lessons along the way. Luckily, I had excellent mentors. I studied them closely and emulated the traits and techniques that I saw as instrumental to their success. I learned from my failures tooâ€"and trust me, there were plenty of themâ€"and took away valuable lessons.

I started a TV production business that failed for four years before I remade it (with a good hard shove from a mentor) and it took off. I became the first Latina president of a TV network (Telemundo), produced over 700 shows in English and Spanish, and appeared on the Celebrity Apprentice.

Tamargoâ€"Sipa USA/AP The key to my story is that even when I was making money, I sacrificed, I did not live large, and I invested in real estate. In time, the income from my real estate business meant that I didn’t have to work anymoreâ€"I could live comfortably off the income from my investments. And that gave me freedomâ€"the freedom to do the work I wanted to do, not work I had to doâ€"and what I wanted was work that would nourish me creatively and spiritually. When I realized I was financially free to pursue whatever I wanted, first I screamed and cried. I couldn’t believe it! And then I realized I had some unfinished business. So I went back to school, finished my BA, and then spent four years getting a graduate degree in psychology. I worked on my emotional baggage. I came to terms with my heritage, my culture, my feminine side, everything. These were essential steps in my self-made journey, and they allowed me to become the kind of role model I wanted to be for my son. (Now he can’t complain about school and homework, because he’s seen me powering through it at age 45!)

So in 2012, I started a nonprofit, Adelante!, a live event and digital learning platform that empowers and trains women in entrepreneurship. In Spanish, adelante means “Move it! Now! Let’s go!” I crossed the country, speaking initially to my community of Latinas, a group I know well. But in time others started showing up, first women of color and then all women. It became clear to me that women were looking to connect with each other. They were hungry for information and hungry to build bridges to other women in other communities. That’s when I knew that women needed to know that the self-made revolution was well underway and it is only getting stronger. Join usâ€"join this movement. If you’re afraid, do it anyway. Women are banding together to share resources and collaborate in countless brilliant ways, partnering to start businesses together, and lending a hand to the next generation of self-made women who will follow in their footsteps. This is a chance for you to add your story to theirs. A life-changing journey awaits you. Take my hand. Now. Here. Let’s go! Adelante! Adapted from SELF MADE by Nely Galán.

Common Job Search Mistakes - Work It Daily

Common Job Search Mistakes - Work It Daily By CAREEREALISM-Approved Expert, Debra Wheatman Many job search candidates spend innumerable hours pursuing employment opportunities; yet many do not achieve the desired results. Having worked with thousands of people trying to obtain positions of increased responsibility in their chosen industry or field, I have encountered the following common mistakes, resulting in failure to achieve optimal outcomes: No organized search strategy: You need a plan. Keep yourself organized with a list of things you need to do on a daily basis. This list will allow you to focus your efforts in the areas that require your full attention. Would you go to the supermarket without a list of things you need? If you do, I will guarantee you forget to buy something or purchase things you don’t need. Your job search works in a similar fashion. The list will allow you to plan for a successful campaign. No record keeping: It is important to keep a list or spreadsheet of some kind so you can review to whom you have sent your resume or the contacts made. There is no possibility of you being able to recall all of the companies or people that you have contacted â€" let alone those that may have contacted you. Without a record, you might miss an opportunity, or worse be unprepared when someone does reach out to you. Make sure you keep names, dates, and details of discussions you had. Your records will allow you to follow-up when appropriate and supports your organized approach (see above.) No use of diverse search methods: You cannot simply apply online and think the calls are going to roll in. A job search requires far more effort than the use of the Internet. The following must be done to ensure a successful campaign: Identifying specific companies where you might be interested in working. Once you have a list, you should do some research to get the name of someone internally to direct your correspondence. Conducting research regarding the names of people in senior level positions. Use trade publications and the Internet to uncover names of people. Trade publications can be a great source of information, including providing you with movement within your targeted industry. Leveraging your network of friends and family members. Your network should also include people you meet at local networking events. You will not be able to join every group so choose wisely. Engage with people that you meet to establish relationships that can be reciprocal. Identifying a few niche job boards where you can post your resume. You should not broadcast it on every board out there. You will look desperate. Establishing a relationship with a few key recruiters. Like any relationship, you will need to work at maintaining contact. Recruiters definitely know the market and have contacts within the companies where them make placements. You cannot work with everyone. Make sure you choose wisely; be prepared to conduct a fair amount of follow up to keep communication lines open. Failure to maintain a positive outlook: One of the best, and most important things you can do for yourself and your search is to develop and maintain a positive approach. Every person you meet or interact with represents an opportunity. Given people are drawn to those that are positive, a strong finish necessitates that you give positive vibes. Under no circumstances should you complain or be the picture of doom. It will take time; you will work hard â€" BUT in the end, the person who can remain engaged and willing to embrace a proactive and positive focus will generate results. Enjoying this article?

Failure to follow-up: Your search requires you reach out to people on an ongoing basis, including people you have already spoken with. To remain top of mind, it is imperative you have a plan to conduct follow-up. This doesn’t mean you should constantly call or email people. Following-up is a strategy too. If you are keeping your notes and remain organized, you will have the dates that you contacted people and can space your interactions so you remain memorable without being overbearing. Failure to prepare for your interviews: Preparing for your interviews is important to ensure you are successful. You should be reviewing information about the company and position, and studying your resume so you are prepared to discuss the information in detail. Do some research on commonly asked interview questions so you can answer appropriately if someone throws you “What is your greatest weakness?” question. Make sure you are able to connect your achievements to how you will make an impact in a new role. Poor appearance and grooming: You should dress to impress during your job search. This means that you should be dressed in a suit when you interview. Even if the company has a dress down policy, you are not yet part of the group. First impressions are lasting ones. If you go into the interview looking sloppy and unkempt, you are not going to make a positive or lasting impression on your audience â€" except that you did not look the part. You have the power to establish a strong job search strategy. With a plan, you can and will achieve your goals. Preparation is half the battle; your winning is entirely predicated on how you establish and implement your program! Did you enjoy this article? Read more articles by this expert here.
