Power of Attorney FAQ - Australia-QLD

Power of Attorney FAQ - Australia-QLDPower of Attorney FAQ - Australia-QLDGeneral InformationWhat is a Power of Attorney?A Power of Attorney is a document in which one person (the Donor) appoints aleidher person (the Attorney) to act for him or her. There are many reasons why you might want to appoint someone else to look after your financial affairs. For example, if you are going to be out of the country for a lengthy period of time, you might want someone to do your banking while you are gone. If you are approaching old age, you may want to give a Power of Attorney to a person you trust so that he or she can manage your property for you.What are the differences between enduring and ordinary Powers of Attorney?There are two major types of Powers of Attorney ordinary and enduring.An ordinary Power of Attorney is only valid as long as the Donor is capable of acting for him or herself. If the Donor dies or becomes mentally incompetent, the Power of Attorney is invalidated.An Enduring P ower of Attorney remains valid even if the Donor later becomes mentally incompetent. (Note the Donor must be competent at the time the Power of Attorney is made.)In either case, the Power of Attorney becomes invalid when the Donor dies. A Power of Attorney cannot be used to bequeath property upon the death of the Donor.What are the differences between general and specific Powers of Attorney?A general Power of Attorney is one that gives the Attorney the authority to do anything the Donor could do him or herself. A specific Power of Attorney is one that gives the Attorney authority to act for a particular purpose. (For example to buy or sell a particular piece of property.)Will a Power of Attorney still be valid after the Donor dies?NO. Generally Speaking, when a person dies, the Executor (also called a Personal Representative) appointed in the persons Last Will and Testament takes control of the deceased persons property and distributes it according to the instructions in the Will. I f there is no Will (or if the Will is invalid), each jurisdiction has intestacy legislation that distributes the deceased persons property to his or her relatives according to a set of rules. A court generally appoints an Administrator to oversee this process. Unfortunately, the deceased persons wishes are not taken into account during the process (which can be very lengthy), since they have not been formally expressed in the proper manner.Will a Power of Attorney allow me to appoint someone to make welfare and medical decisions on my behalf?In most of Australia, powers of attorney do not give someone the right to make decisions about your welfare or medical treatment. Usually, a medical power of attorney or anticipatory directive is required to verstndigung im strafverfahren with non-financial matters. The exception to this rule is found in Australian Capital Territory and Queensland. In the Australian Capital Territory you can use your Enduring Power of Attorney to appoint someone to run your everyday affairs (other than property and money) and consent to medical treatment and medical donation while you are incapacitated. In Queensland you can use your Enduring Power of Attorney to appoint someone to make personal and health decisions when your capacity is impaired.The DonorWho is the Donor?The Donor is the person who needs someone else to act for him or her. The Donor must be an adult. The Donor must be capable of making his or her own decisions at the time the Power of Attorney is executed (signed).What is incapacity?A person is incapable of managing property if the person is unable to understand information relevant to making a decision about the management of property, or if the person cannot appreciate the foreseeable consequences of making (or not making) a decision about the management of property.The AttorneyWho is the Attorney?The person appointed by the Donor is called the Attorney. The Attorney is the person who acts for the Donor.Does the Attorne y have to be a lawyer?No, there is no need for the Attorney to be a lawyer. (See below for Attorney qualifications.)What qualifications does an Attorney need to have?The Attorney must be a capable adult. The Attorney cannot be an undischarged bankrupt. The Attorney should not be the owner, operator or employee of a nursing home or extended care facility in which the Donor is a resident.What qualities should I look for in an Attorney?Your Attorney must be someone whom you trust completely. In addition, remember that your Attorney will have complete authority to deal with your financial and legal affairs (subject to any limitations or restrictions specified in your Power of Attorney). You should ensure that the person you choose has adequate financial management skills and sufficient time to handle your affairs properly. Your Attorney must be available when required, be able to objectively make decisions and be able to keep accurate financial records.What are the responsibilities of m y Attorney?Your Attorney has the following responsibilities to act in your best interest to keep accurate records of dealings/transaction undertaken on your behalf to act for you with the utmost good faith and to avoid situations where there is a conflict of interest and to keep your property and money separate from their own.Is it okay to appoint a relative as Attorney?Yes, people often appoint relatives as Attorneys.Can my Attorney also be a beneficiary in my will?Yes.What are Joint or Joint Several Attorneys?Sometimes a Donor will want to appoint two Attorneys. In that case the Donor must decide whether the Attorneys will be joint Attorneys or joint and several Attorneys. Joint Attorneys must act together. They must both agree before any action can be taken, and they must both take the same action at the same time. If one is absent, no action can be taken. Joint and several Attorneys can act together or individually. Either one can take an action without consulting the other. If one is absent, the other can still act.Place and TimeWhat is Jurisdiction?A jurisdiction is a place that has its own laws. It is a territory with boundaries, such as a state or a province. For example, California is a jurisdiction in the United States, Ontario is a jurisdiction in Canada, Scotland is a jurisdiction in the United Kingdom and Queensland is a jurisdiction in Australia.What is the Governing Law?A Power of Attorney is governed by the law of the jurisdiction where the actions of the Attorney will be performed. Normally, this is the place in which the property of the Donor is located. Therefore, it is not a good idea to appoint an Attorney who resides in a different jurisdiction, unless the property or assets you want the Attorney to deal with are also in the different jurisdiction. If you anticipate that your Attorney will be acting in more than one jurisdiction, you should probably make separate Powers of Attorney for each jurisdiction.Examples If your bank accounts and other property are located in the jurisdiction where you live, you will want to appoint an Attorney who lives in the same jurisdiction. If you live in one jurisdiction but have a bank account or other property someplace else, and you want an Attorney to deal with that property, you will want to choose the place where the property is located as the governing law, and appoint an Attorney who is located in (or is willing to travel to) the same jurisdiction as the property.When does a Power of Attorney abflug?The Donor can specify the Power of Attorney to start either immediately on a specified date or on a specified occasion.If the Donor does not specify when the power is to start, the power will start immediately upon execution. However, it cannot be used for dealing with real estate transactions until it has been registered.For Enduring Powers of Attorney, if the Donors capacity has been impaired prior to the date/occasion specified in the Power of Attorney, the Power of Attorney wi ll start when the Donor has impaired capacity. Similarly, if the Enduring Power of Attorney deals with personal matters, those personal matters can only be dealt with by the Attorney when the Donor has impaired capacity. Attorneys may have to provide evidence of the Donors incapacity (e.g. a medical certificate) when acting on behalf of the Donor.NOTE In Queensland, an Enduring Power of Attorney does not confer authority until the Attorney accepts the appointment by signing the instrument creating the power.How/when does a Power of Attorney end?An ordinary Power of Attorney ends automatically when the Donor becomes mentally incapacitated or dies. An Enduring Power of Attorney ends automatically when the Donor dies. As long as you are mentally capable, you may revoke your Power of Attorney at any time by notifying your Attorney (in writing) that the Power is revoked and destroying the original Power of Attorney. Otherwise, a Power of Attorney continues in effect indefinitely, unless the document specifies an end date.Can I revoke my Power of Attorney after I have become incompetent?A person who is incompetent cannot revoke an Enduring Power of Attorney. However, an ordinary Power of Attorney is automatically revoked when the Donor is found to be incompetent.How do I revoke my Power of Attorney?You can revoke, or cancel, a Power of Attorney by giving your Attorney a written notice saying that his or her power has ended. Also, you may make a new Power of Attorney that states your previous Power of Attorney is now revoked (but you must still notify the previous Attorney of the revocation). Third parties (e.g., people or organisations that have been dealing with the Attorney) must also be notified. Additionally, if your Power of Attorney is registered you must also register the revocation.Please note that if you fail to inform your attorney of the revocation, your Attorney can legally continue to make decisions on your behalf.PowersShould I put restrictions on my A ttorney?When you give a general Power of Attorney, you give your Attorney the authority to do anything you could do yourself, with a few exceptions - such as areas where you possess skills that your attorney doesnt (e.g. if you are a dentist, you cannot authorise your Attorney to practice dentistry on your behalf). But there may be some things you would prefer your Attorney did not do. For example, you may want to require that your Attorney get prior approval from you before signing cheques for large amounts on your account.Should my Attorney be allowed to personally benefit from managing my assets?If the person you are appointing as your Attorney is also a member of your family or a beneficiary in your will, you may want that person to be able to personally benefit from managing your assets, since you intend that person to become owner of the assets eventually. Generally, however, it is probably not a good idea to allow your Attorney to personally benefit from managing your assets as this creates a conflict of interest for your Attorney, who is legally obligated to act in your best interest, not his or her own best interest.What can the Attorney do?The Attorney may transact business respecting the Donors property in all areas specified by the Donor.Is the Attorney obligated to do anything?Generally speaking, the Attorney is not obligated to act for the Donor. However, in some circumstances the Attorney may agree, in writing, to accept an obligation to take action when necessary. When the Attorney acts on behalf of the Donor, the Attorney must act in the best interest of the Donor.Does my Attorney have the authority to act while I am still available and able to take care of my own finances?Generally speaking, a Power of Attorney is effective as soon as it is executed (signed and witnessed, etc.) whether or not the Donor is available or able to handle his or her own affairs. However, the document might specify that it will only be effective under certain condit ions. For example, some Powers of Attorney specify that they will not come into effect unless and until the Donor has become mentally incompetent to handle his or her own finances. Note Some jurisdictions do not allow Powers of Attorney that commence upon the occurrence of a condition or event such as mental incapacity.Signing DetailsWhat does it mean to execute a document?When a person executes a document, he or she signs it with the proper formalities. For example If there is a legal requirement that the signature on the document be witnessed, the person executes the document by signing it in the presence of the required number of witnesses.How should I sign my Power of Attorney document?To be valid, you must sign the document with your usual cheque signing signature. You should also initial each page of the document. The signing and the initialing of the pages must occur in the presence of your notary or witness(es).After you have signed and initialed your document in front of yo ur notary or witness(es), your notary or witness(es) must sign on the applicable page of the Power of Attorney and should initial each page. This must occur in your presence.Can anybody act as a witness?Your witness(es) cannot be your spouse, partner, child, your Attorney or alternate Attorney, or the spouse of your Attorney or alternate Attorney. Some jurisdictions disallow witnesses that are mentioned in your will, either as beneficiary or executor/executrix. You should generally avoid having witnesses that have any financial relationship with you. The witness(es) must be of legal age in your jurisdiction, they must have capacity and be mentally capable of managing their property and making their own decisions.Who can Witness an Enduring Power of Attorney?In Queensland an Enduring Power of Attorney must be witnessed by a justice of the peace commissioner of declarations lawyer or notary public.Does it matter where the Power of Attorney document is signed and witnessed?If your docu ment will be used in a different jurisdiction - but not in a foreign nation - there is no problem with having the document signed and witnessed where you live, rather than where the document will be used. The witnessing requirements (number of witnesses required, whether or not notarisation is needed) should still be those of the place where the Power of Attorney will be used, however.Can I use my Power of Attorney in a different state/territory?Some territories and states have mutual recognition provisions in their Power of Attorney legislation which provide portability of powers within Australia. Before trying to use a power of attorney created in a different jurisdiction review the legislation of the jurisdiction where you wish to use the power of attorney to ensure that your Power of Attorney will be accepted.What if my Power of Attorney will be used in a foreign nation?If your document is intended to be used in a foreign nation, you may have to have it authenticated or legalise d. This is a process whereby a government official (e.g., the Secretary of State, the Foreign Office, the Office of the Attorney General - depending on where you live) certifies that the signature of the authority (e.g., notary or solicitor) on your document is authentic and should be accepted in the foreign nation. For more information about document authentication and legalisation, contact the local consulate/embassy of the foreign country your document will be going to, or one of the following government web sitesUnited States https//travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal-considerations/judicial/authentication-of-documents/office-of-authentications.html/Australia dfat.gov.au/brisbane/index.htmlOther Considerations Do I have to pay my Attorney?Depending on the kind of relationship you have with the person who will be acting as your Attorney, you will have to consider whether they should be paid for their services. You can stipulate in your document that your Attorney will not re ceive any payment except the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses, or you can agree to pay your Attorney a specified amount. If you prefer, you can authorise your Attorney to pay him or herself a reasonable amount for acting for you. However, you do not need to pay your Attorney for the power to be effective. Generally, payment is only made when a trust company or other professional person/organisation is acting as your Attorney.Should I have my Attorney prepare financial statements?You can require your Attorney to prepare periodical financial statements and send them to your accountant, lawyer or some other person you choose. This is a good deal of work, however, and most people do not require it of unpaid Attorneys.Note Attorneys should keep records of their actions.What are co-owned assets?If your Attorney is a family member, you may be joint owners of property. It is important to state this in your document, so that third parties dealing with your Attorney understand that the Attorney is entitled to co-own assets with you. Otherwise, the co-owning of assets could give the impression of impropriety.Do I have to record or register my Power of Attorney with the Land Titles Office?Generally speaking, a Power of Attorney has to be registered with a land titles office/department if it could affect real property (land or other real estate). For example, if the Attorney is authorised to mortgage or sell the Donors real estate, or to purchase real estate on behalf of the Donor, the Power of Attorney will probably have to be registered at the appropriate office. Usually there is a fee for registration of the document. Additionally some jurisdictions provide stricter registration requirements. In Tasmania, all Powers of Attorney (whether general or enduring) must be registered with the Recorder of Titles. In Northern Territory, all Enduring Powers of Attorney must be lodged at he Registrar-Generals Office.Is any stamp duty payable on my Power of Attorney?No stamp duty is payable on a Power of Attorney in Queensland (Duties Act 2001).

New book Michelle Obamas fashion journey was a turbulent one

New book Michelle Obamas fashion journey was a turbulent oneNew book Michelle Obamas fashion journey was a turbulent oneAmong otherbei accolades, Michelle Obama is a fashion icon. She has graced Vogues cover several times. On newsstands across the country, her face is a familiar fixture.But even Obama, who literally inspired a Harvard Business Review articleabouthow her fashion choices influence markets, has faced backlash for her style. In her new book Becoming, which has sold more than 2 million copies in North America, Obama writes about how superficial criticism informed her behavior as one of the worlds most prominent women.It seemed that my clothes mattered more to people than anything I had to say, Obama writes.This stuff got me down, but I tried to reframe it as an opportunity to learn, to use what power I could find inside a situation Id never have chosen for myself.Going into her tenure at the White House, Obama understood she would face expectations and burdens other first ladies had avoided by virtue of their skin color. If there was a presumed grace assigned to my white predecessors, I knew it wasnt likely to be the same for me, Obama writes. I was humbled and excited to be First Lady, but notlage for one second did I think Id be sliding into some glamorous, easy role.She also was no designer expert I knew a little about fashion, but not a lot. As a working mother, Id really been too busy to put much thought into what I wore, she wrote.And yet, much like a 21st-century Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis - arguably the most glamorous first lady - Obama became known for her style. Part of her popularity reflected the fact that she wore recognizable brands J. Crew, Ann Taylor, Target. She was not a movie star, and she didnt behave as such. But when an event called for pomp and circumstance, she was able to rise to the occasion - in Gucci, Versace, Givenchy or Alexander McQueen.And so Obamas style was both attainable and aspirational, offering guidance for women who wanted to look professional and put together. Of course, Obama had an army of stylists helping to ensure she did not commit a faux pas - a luxury most women cannot afford.In Becoming, Obama almost mocks the attention her clothing received, trumping more important topics that she might have rather championed.When I wore flats instead of heels, it got reported in the news, she writes. My pearls, my belts, my cardigans, my off-the-rack dresses from J. Crew, my apparently brave choice of white for an inaugural gown - all seemed to trigger a slew of opinions and instant feedback.In London, she continues, Id stepped offstage after having been moved to tears while speaking to the girls at the Elizabeth Garrett Anderson School, only to learn that the first question directed to one of my staffers by a reporter covering the event had been Who made her dress?Though Obama writes about how she was judged for her fashion, and how that judgment put her in a difficult situation, not eve rything about being in the spotlight was bad. She explores how she derived strength and energy from her White House wardrobe her dress at the first inaugural balls even revived her after a whirlwind day.In my life so far, Id worn very few gowns, but Jason Wus creation performed a potent little miracle, making me feel soft and beautiful and open again, just as I began to think I had nothing of myself left to show, Obama writes. The dress resurrected the dreaminess of my familys metamorphosis, the promise of this entire experience, transforming me if not into a full-blown ballroom princess, then at least into a woman capable of climbing on another stage.Though Obamas fashion journey has not always been a smooth one, it has culminated in what most would consider a success story. It is a shame she felt her looks mattered more to people than what she said, but perhaps thats changing as millions of Americans read her words in Becoming. After all, she has proven to be much more than the we ll-dressed ornament who showed up at parties and ribbon cuttings she knew she never wanted to become.

Scarcity the secret, obvious key to success in the workplace

Scarcity the secret, obvious key to success in the workplaceScarcity the secret, obvious key to success in the workplaceFor much of ur lives, even when we have more than anyone can ask for, we can feel like we dont have enough too little money, too little freedom, too little praise.We only get ahead when we realize that we have everything we need.Dont believe me? Try this thought exercise and decide if it sounds familiar.Youre swamped at work. S-W-A-M-P-E-D. On top of that, junior people keep stopping by and asking if you have any work for them. You have no time to deal with them. Zero. Your blood pressure rises at these inconsiderate interruptions.The otzu sich day, my friend told me that she welches too busyand will probably missher deadlines. I asked why she couldnt delegate some of her work to the person they just hired. Her response OMG, Maria I completely forgot that he existed.Perception is realityMy friend didnt see the opportunity to lessen her workload because she was nose- deep in scarcity thinking. She was singularly focused on not having enough time.She didnt perceive the entirety of her reality just a sliver of it. We all know the feeling, when our world narrows with worry and we stop seeing the bigger picture.The result is that because we cant see past ourselves at those moments of stress, we also miss the solutions to our worries.Our lives under the microscopePerhaps because I spent many hours during grad school staring down a microscope, I find it useful to think about reality and perception in terms of looking at a biological specimen on a slide.Reality is the entirety of the composite object slide, specimen, and titelblatt slip protecting the specimen. Thats us and everything around us. But looking into a microscope, you can only focus on a single plane at a time, giving you a very different views of the same object. Turn the knob too much, raise the platform on which the slide with your specimen rests, and all you see is the lint and scratc hes on the underside of the glass. Turn it too little, and youll see the smudges on the top of the glass cover. But get it just right, and youre finally in the useful plane, seeing the results of your experiment.The reality of my friends situation was that she had competent resources to help her deal with the crush of assignments. But her attention was focused on the plane where no help was available. The layer of lint and scratches.Its easy to focus on scarcityBeing a lawyer, I am subjected to a constant stream of stories about failing law firms, lower firm profits, and over-abundance of lawyers. The panicked perspectiveof the survival question often overpowers us, keeping us in a loop of scarcity thinking. So to keep going, the right question to ask is how do I become a lawyer with satisfied clients and a growing practice. It is not very productive to ask, how am I supposed to survive when the whole industry is hitting the fan?In their book Scarcity Why Having Too Little Means So Much,Sendhil Mullainathan and Eldar Shafir describe the problem of scarcity thinking as follows When we think of the poor, we naturally think of a shortage of money. When we think of the busy, or the lonely, we think of a shortage of time, or of friends. But our results suggest that scarcity of all varieties also leads to a shortage of mental bandwidth.It is this shortage of mental bandwidth that causes seemingly irrational behaviors in people stressed by deprivation. Lonely people avoid friends people in debt go on spending sprees overwhelmed colleagues are too busy to delegate any of their work. But these behaviors are rational choices from the perspectiveinduced by scarcity.Remembering the focusing knobChanging our perspective from the tunnel vision of deprivation to seeing opportunity requires vigilance and practice. It requires deliberately focusing away from the very slice of reality that our survival instincts present to us as our whole reality. This is not easy to do.When I firststarted noticing my own scarcity thinking and working on changing my perspective, I needed the help of trusted friends and coaches to turn the focusing knob of my attention until it showed me an entirely different view of the same situation.A good sign of scarcity mentality is the inability to see all of our options. If you catch yourself thinking that a particular situation is hopeless and theres no getting out of it, ask for a second opinion. It mightbethat your focusing knob is juststuck on the wrong plane.

3 Candidate Mistakes to Look For in a Video Interview - Spark Hire

3 Candidate Mistakes to Look For in a Video Interview - Spark HireAs a hiring manager or employer, you know what things to look for in job seekers that show they are not the candidate for you. You may need bold, aggressive go-getters on your team to drive sales in which case a reserved, shy candidate would not do. You may need someone with great communication skills that can also write well. In other words, you know what you want. Even so, there can be subtle signs in an einstellungsgesprch that can help you decide if this candidate is your future employee or just another job seeker in the bunch. Even mora so, there are things you can look for in the screening process if you use video interviewing that can help you decide if you should invest more time in a candidate, or spend your time and energy elsewhere. Weve already covered what to look for in a great video resume. So on the flip side, lets discuss three candidate mistakes you should look for in a video interview.Using video int erviews is a great way to enhance your candidate screening process. If used correctly, it can shave tons of time off the process and make it much easier on you, the hiring manager or employer. When you see that on average one phone screen takes about 30 minutes to complete and know that you can complete 10 one-way video interviews in the same time, it seems foolish not to incorporate video interviews into your process. That said, candidates can make blunders in a video interview just the same as in an in-person interview.Messy BackgroundEven though job seekers have the ability to interview with you from home by video interviewing, it doesnt mean they should throw all regard for professionalism to the wind. When you are viewing a candidates video resume, one-way video interview or interacting with them over a two-way video interview, be mindful of the hintergrund. Is it neat and tidy, or unorganized and very messy? Although you dont want to judge job seekers by how they choose to kee p their home, a mess in the background of a video interview can point to laziness or disregard. You wouldnt be particularly thrilled with a candidate that came into your sekretariat for an in-person interview and was messy and unkempt. By the same token, if job seekers have a mess in the background of video interview it should be a sign that this candidate is not the best.Communication SkillWhen you use one-way video interviews in the screening process,a candidate is put in front of you right away. They are no longer just a resume or a voice, but an actual person communicating with you as they would in person. When you participate in a video interview with job seekers, you should be paying close attention to the way they communicate. Are they assertive and confident in the answers they are giving, or are they unsure and wishy-washy? If a candidate shines in the video interview and shows you they have great communication skills, you may want to invest the time and energy in having th em come into the office for an in-person interview. If they are struggling to communicate to you why they are a great candidate, you may want to pass them over.Dress AppropriatelyWhen a candidate truly cares about the position they applied to and truly wants the job, they will do their best to present their best self to you. That includes their outward appearance. This is a given in an in-person interview, but job seekers might feel that since this is not a formal, in-person interview that they can skimp on a few areas. However, if you are interviewing a top candidate they will know that any time they are in front of you or presenting themselves to you, be it in their resume or interview, they need to be at their best. A candidate that participates in a video interview and is dressed casually is probably not the best candidate for you.Although these candidate missteps may seem petty, they are small signs that point to laziness, disregard or apathy. No matter what position you are lo oking to fill you want a candidate with integrity, confidence and motivation to get the job done right. Keep these small mistakes in mind next time you participate in a video interview with job seekers.What are some mistakes that job seekers make that you feel are deal breakers?

Humble Brag 101 8 tips on how to talk about yourself

Humble Brag 101 8 tips on how to talk about yourselfHumble Brag 101 8 tips on how to talk about yourselfWeve all been there you run into a *Very Important Career Person* at an event, or even mora commonly, youre in a job interview and its your turn to share things about yourself. Suddenly your mind is full of questionsWhat should I say? Did that sound stupid? Should I tell her behauptung extra details that make me look good or will it come off as bragging?The thing that you need to keep in mind in any career or networking situation is that unless you bring up the positive accomplishments you have, no one will know about them At the same time, though, consider the fact that nobody wants to work with or even be around someone who is an arrogant show-off who cant stop bragging about themselves.For those reasons, we thought it would be useful to break down the dos and donts for how to properly humble brag. These tips will help you develop your own strategies to talk about yourself withou t sounding arrogant.The humble brag How to talk about yourself without sounding arrogantIt takes time to develop the right balance between touting your accomplishments and being really annoying about it. For starters, always be attentive to the feedback of your listener, as that can be a major clue about how youre coming across to others. Consider some of the following tips1) Be genuineHighlighting your accomplishments isnt a bad thing, but it is important to be genuine. Think about your motivation for talking about yourself. Is it simply to bask in the admiration of others? Or do you think you have a valuable, interesting, or important contribution to make to a conversation?2) Share your excitementOther people are much more likely to be enthusiastic about your unique accomplishments if youre excited about them. Think about your favorite project from work. As you talk about it, youre naturally going to want to talk about how awesome you think it is. As you continue, your accomplish ments will come to the forefront almost without you realizing it. This allows others to learn what you feel passionate about as well as what youve accomplished in a particular area, without the sense that youre bragging.3) Ask questionsPeople who are great at touting their accomplishments often listen more than they actually talk. Ask questions of the people youre talking to, and add your perspective as you go along. Go into the conversation with a mission of learning more about a topic, rather than impressing others with your knowledge. This is a great way to make people think highly of you without knocking them over the head with your bragging.4) Be briefWhen the time comes to talk about something specific youve done, keep it to a single sentence. For example, you might say I welches recently asked to join the executive board of XYZ nonprofit, and it has been such a learning opportunity for me about the ways we can address the problem of poor literacy in our community.5) Be strate gic about the information you shareIf youre meeting with someone important, its natural to want to impress them. But rather than inundating the person with a verbal recitation of your resume, ask yourself, Whats the one thing I want this person to know about me? Frame your conversation around that specific achievement.6) Help people understand you as a personIn an office place, sometimes its more about your personality than your abilities. Nobody wants to work with someone who is constantly talking about the great things he or she has done. Instead, focus on connecting with others as a person. Did you both grow up in small, rural communities? Do you have a shared love of college hockey? Sure, these things dont directly help you toot your own horn, but they do give others a glimpse into what makes you tick. Sharing your personal side also makes you more memorable to new people.7) Talk about the impactMaybe you started a fitness program that has spread to studios across the country an d generates millions of dollars in revenue. Rather than talking about how great it was that you thought of your idea, focus on the impact your work has had. Its so fun when people tell me how excited they were to lose 50 pounds and run a 5k for the first time.8) Dont sound too humbleHumble bragging can easily fall flat. If you sound too self-effacing and eager to dismiss your own contributions, it can easily come across as a different form of arrogance (Im so great that I dont even need to brag about how great I am.) Instead, strike a realistic tone that shows gratitude for your success. Its okay to be proud of your accomplishments - everyone will expect you to be - but its good to make it clear that you dont take them for granted.This article first appeared on Kununu.

Permanent Change of Station (PCS) Entitlements

Permanent Change of Station (PCS) EntitlementsPermanent Change of Station (PCS) EntitlementsMilitary members who make Permanent Change of Station (PCS) moves from one duty station to abedrngnisher are authorized many entitlements (services) and monetary allowances - too many to remember so use this page for future reference as well as the military links listed in this article. Below is a quick glance of the major entitlements authorized in conjunction with moving from one duty assignment to aelendher. House Hunting Prior to a Move A few months before your the move to your next duty station, military members are allowed a permissive TDY (Temporary Duty) for up to 10 days in conjunction with a Permanent Change of Station (PCS) move between and within the 50 states District of Columbia. You must travel and stay in temporary lodging on your own dime (no transportation or per diem paid), but you will not be charged for up to 10 days leave. You can select when you prefer to take these 10 extra days of leave. You can choose to travel months in advance of your PCS move and see the local options for living arrangements, or you can take the extra 10 days of house hunting leave and take your normal leave as you make this transition. However, if you are still living in the barracks, dorms, or on ship, you cannot take house hunting leave. Temporary Lodging Expense(TLE) TLE is an allowance given to partially offset lodging and meal expenses when a member and/or dependents need to occupy temporary lodging in CONUS (Continental United States) in connection with a PCS. The member receives reimbursement (for member and family members) for temporary lodging and meal expenses, up to $290 per day. If the member is moving from one CONUS base to another, he/she is authorized up to 10 days TLE, either at the losing duty station or at the new duty station (or any combination, up to 10 days total). Typically, the base has temporary quarters in the form of a Navy Lodge or Air Fo rce Inn, but if not the local hotels will have to be used and the full amount of TLE can be authorized. TLE is not the same as per diem. Per diem is actual pay / reimbursement for lodging made during the actual travel days from one duty station to another. TLE is pay / reimbursement for temporary lodging (in CONUS) at the old duty station, before departure, or at the new duty station, after arrival. For mora information about TLE, see the TLE FAQ Page. Temporary Lodging Allowance(TLA) The TLA is for OCONUS, or overseas PCS moves. Up to 60 days (can be extended) may be paid for temporary lodging expenses and meal expenses after a military member (and his/her family) arrive at a new overseas location, while awaiting housing. Up to 10 days of TLA can be paid for temporary lodging expenses in the overseas location, prior to departure. For more information see TLA on PCS DOD Website. Dislocation Allowance Military members may be entitled to a Dislocation Allowance (DLA) when relo cating their household due to a PCS. DLA is intended to partially reimburse relocation expenses not otherwise reimbursed. For more information and current rates. DLA amounts vary by rank and dependency status. Per Diem for PCS Travel Military members receive a per diem allowance, which is designed to partially reimburse for lodging and meal expenses when traveling from one duty station to another. When traveling by Privately Owned Conveyance (POC), military members are paid a flat rate of $142.00 per day for each day of authorized travel used. When the member travels by commercial means, they are paid the established per diem rate, (under Lodging Plus) for the new Permanent Duty Station (PDS), or the rate for the delay point if the member stops overnight. Per diem for dependents is 3/4 of the members applicable rate for each dependent 12 years old or older and 1/2 of the members rate for each dependent under 12 years. For more information on PCS Per Diem (click link). Travel By Privately Owned Conveyance(POC) When members elect to travel to their new duty station by POC (auto), they are entitled to receive a mileage allowance, in lieu of cost of airline ticket. The reimbursement rate depends on the number of authorized travelers in the vehicle. Standard rate is $.19/mile if PCS - effective date 1 Jan 17. Dependent Travel Within CONUS By Other Than POC Within CONUS dependents may be authorized to travel by commercial means (air, rail, bus), unless they elect to travel by POC. The military member can be reimbursed for this travel, up to what it would have cost the military to purchase an airline ticket. Dependent Travel Outside CONUS Dependents can travel to overseas assignment locations, either via militaryaircraft,or by commercial means. Warning If one purchases their own commercial airline tickets for travel to an overseas assignment location, one may only be reimbursed if the aircraft is an American-Flag Carrier, if any AMCs fly to that locat ion. The only time one can be reimbursed for flying on a commercial foreign carrier is if no AMC services that overseas location. Household Goods Transportation Military members can ship Household Goods from their old duty station to their new duty station. Authorized up to 18,000 pounds, but varies by grade whether or not the member is with or without dependents. In addition to allowing the military to arrange for movement of Household Goods, the member can elect to move it themselves, and receive reimbursement if the move is within the CONUS.

Additional items (up to the weight allowance) is allowed to be placed in Non temporary Storage. Non-Temporary Storage of Household Goods Military members can elect to have the military store all, or part of their Household Goods on a permanent grund during the assignment, up to their maximum weight allowance. Additional Consumables Allowance This is a separate allowance for annual shipment of up to 1,250 pounds per year of consumable items. Weight is in addition to the householdgoods weight limit. Mobile Home Transportation When moved byacommercialtransporter, reimbursement includes carrier charges, road fares tolls, permits charges for the pilotcar. If towed by POC, reimbursement is for actual costs. For self-propelled mobile home, reimbursement is at 36.5 cents per mile. May be transported by GBL. Reimbursement is limited to what it would have cost the Government to transport members maximum HHG weight allowance. Transportation of Mobile Home is in lieu of HHG transportation and is authorized only within CONUS, within Alaska, between CONUS Alaska. Transportation of Privately Owned Vehicles(POV) Military members can ship POVs in conjunction with many overseas assignments (and, of course, can ship them back to the CONUS, upon completion of the assignment). The military services can apply restrictions on this entitlement. For example, for assignments to Korea, military members must be command sponsored (allowed to be accompanied by family members), or must be in the grade of E-7 or above, in order to ship a vehicle. Members may also be authorized shipment for a replacement POV during any 4-year period, while assigned overseas. Membershave also authorizedmileage reimbursement when driving the vehicle to the authorized port for shipment, and when picking up the vehicle from the authorized receiving port. There is only limited authority for POV shipment within CONUS. Shipment within the CONUS is authorized only when medically unable to drive, homeport change, or not enough time to drive. POV Storage A member is auth orized storage of a POV when (a) ordered to an overseas assignment to which POV transportation isnt permitted, or (b) sent TDY on a contingency operation, for more than 30 days.

Do your homework, as you will need to reference the DOD webpages and your personnel support on your local base to set up the move to your new base.
