Employees Will Stay For The Work But Leave For Career

BlessingWhite’s recently released 2011 Employee Engagement study provides insight into the factors that drive employees to stick with – or quit – their current job.

PRINCETON, NJ /PRNewswire/ ~~ In a global study by consulting firm BlessingWhite, the top reason employees worldwide give for staying with their employer is “My work. I like the work that I do.”

What is the most important factor influencing your plans to stay?

~~ My Work. I like the work that I do. 30%

~~ My career. I have significant development or advancement opportunities here. 17%

~~ My organization’s mission. I believe in what we do. 11%

~~ No desire for change. I am comfortable here. 10%

~~ My job conditions. I have flexible hours, a good commute, etc. 10%

~~ My finances. I expect a desirable salary, bonus, or stock options. 7%

~~ Other (The Economy, My Manager, My Colleagues) 15%

In contrast, the top reason employees of all age groups give for jumping ship: “My career. I don’t have opportunities to grow or advance here.”

What is the most important factor influencing your thoughts about leaving?

~~ My career. I don’t have opportunities to grow or advance here. 26%

~~ My work. I don’t like what I do or it doesn’t make the most of my talents. 15%

~~ My finances. I want to earn more money. 15%

~~ My desire for change. I want to try something new. 12%

~~ My manager. I don’t like working for him or her. 10%

~~ Other (The Economy, Job Conditions, Org. Mission, Colleagues) 18%

“Business leaders are right to be concerned about retention of top talent,” said BlessingWhite CEO Christopher Rice. “And while raises may encourage some workers to stick around, our findings suggest that employees – especially high performers ~~ will remain in jobs that challenge them, utilize their expertise, and provide meaning.”

The Employee Engagement Report 2011 explores workplace attitudes among employees on four continents and is based on survey responses of nearly 11,000 employed professionals. Among the study’s other findings:

After enjoyable work, career advancement is the second most important retention factor in India, China, Australia/New Zealand and Southeast Asia. In North America and Europe, favorable job conditions (e.g., a good commute or flexible hours) ranks second.

Although workers across generations agree on their top reasons for staying and leaving, the youngest workers (Generation Y or Millenials) place higher priority on career opportunities than they do their work. Likewise, Gen Y employees are more likely to leave in pursuit of more money. Baby Boomers, on the other hand, seek more interesting work and change (something new).

Rice advises business leaders to help their workforce rethink career notions. “When employees understand that today’s career is all about creating a portfolio of assignments and projects, not necessarily promotions and new titles, they’re better prepared to concentrate on finding work that they enjoy – and work that can help the organization achieve its goals.”

Intended for line executives and HR leaders, Employee Engagement Report 2011 presents five levels of engagement: Engaged, Almost Engaged, Honeymooner & Hamsters, Crash & Burners, and Disengaged. The recommendations focus on the roles and responsibilities of executives, managers, and individuals in driving engagement every day. The report can be accessed at http://www.blessingwhite.com/eee__report.asp.

The engagement survey was conducted between July 2010 and October 2010, and results were compared with pre-recession data (gathered December 2007). 27% of the 10,914 survey respondents reside in North America. More than half of respondents hold executive, management, or supervisory titles.

How do I best put my education to work in getting an intelligence position with a national agency?

Question: I’m really interested in getting an entry level job at an intelligence agency but do not know the best way to go about it. As it stands I have a BA in politics and east Asian studies, am proficient in Mandarin Chinese, and am about to finish up a MA in Criminal Justice and am working on an MS in Intelligence. Additionally, I am in officer candidate school with the Army National Guard, slated to receive my commission in August (most likely in infantry or cavalry). My question becomes, what steps should I take to secure a job in one of the intelligence agencies, and what jobs should I be trying for specifically?

Answer: Sometimes the harder that you try the harder it is to actually find an open door.

What I mean by the above is that now that you have graduated from school there is less chance for an internship or cooperative education program that can be used by you to meet people.

The intelligence agencies like to meet people in some kind of safe setting where you can be observed doing what you do best rather than responding to job applications, although they obviously hire through the resumes that they receive.

The good news is that you have a super education. Mandarin Chinese is by itself a major door opener IF you have a security clearance of Top Secret. Do you?

Also, have you taken a DLPT test in Mandarin Chinese? The DLPT is the Defense Language Proficiency Test that determines your level of competency in reading, writing and/or speaking a foreign language. Usually a score of 2/3 or 3/2 in reading/writing and/or writing/reading is enough to open some doors for you.

If you have never taken a DLPT test then you should contact your National Guard education officer and ask to be scheduled for the DLPT. Get this score on your records!

Unless you are a native speaker of Mandarin Chinese then you probably will not be eligible for a linguist position.

RECOMMENDATION: As to what position you should be seeking, seek positions with titles like junior intelligence analyst, media analyst, foreign area analyst, information research or intelligence research.

As for security clearance, a Top Secret is usually the minimal clearance necessary to get a position as an intelligence specialist. If you do not have this clearance then speak with your National Guard commander about possibilities to go to the S2 Officer school and to move into a billet that requires a Top Secret security clearance.

What makes me more marketable as an intelligence professional?

Question: I am interested in finding things that will make more marketable when I pursue a civilian career in intelligence. What degree to pursue, what are extra accomplishments that employers may look for? Thanks.

Answer: Your note does not say whether you have any military or federal government service in intelligence.

Employers that hire intelligence professionals generally are looking for four things:

~~ Certifiable training and experience in intelligence. You do not necessarily need a lot. Two to three years of experience is enough to land a junior intelligence specialist position.

~~ Education: unless you are going overseas you really need to have an AA/AS degree at the minimum and many positions require that you have a BA/BS degree. The actual kind of degree is usually immaterial.

~~ Willingness to work where the jobs are. Intelligence jobs are everywhere, but not in great numbers. There are 7-8 regional hubs of intelligence activity where jobs are always needed.

~~ Do you have a security clearance that has been used within the last 24 months, and does the clearance match the needs of employers in that area. An intelligence professional in Maryland with a TS/SCI clearance, but no full/lifestyle polygraph, have very limited opportunities for employer. However that same individual would do very well in northern Virginia.

Terrorists Using Online Games Undetected by CIA and NSA

Researcher Reveals Imminent Threat to National Security

SCHIEDAM, Netherlands and NEW YORK /PRNewswire/ ~~ Despite billions of dollars spent by intelligence agencies like NSA and CIA on technologies to intercept and monitor electronic messages and communications, terrorists all over the world are able to communicate without fear of discovery, using online computer games.

The CIA tentatively acknowledged this threat in its 2008 Data Mining Report and started the Reynard Project as a “seedling effort” to detect suspicious behaviour and actions in the virtual world. Although online gaming has exploded and hundreds of millions of people participate in these games, not much has been heard about the Reynard Project since.

Recently the danger of terrorists using computer games as a secure communication channel led to alarming news articles by major newspapers in Europe, following the release of the technothriller MMORPG: How a computer game becomes deadly serious.

Dutchman Emile van Veen spent two years researching how terrorists could utilise so called Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games (MMORPGs). These online games appear to be an unbreakable code for intelligence agencies and offer communication channels like email, chat and voice chat. They are violent by nature, making it virtually impossible to detect dangerous conversations. They can be accessed from any computer, anywhere, by using anonymous accounts. Van Veen’s story is set in both the real and the virtual world, a novel concept in itself. Emile van Veen: “Especially reproductions of our real world are dangerous. Someone who wants to blow up the Brooklyn Bridge could examine the target in detail and scout his way in and out as well.” He thinks the danger is imminent.

After the release of his thriller in Europe, Van Veen received a lot of worried press attention. “Many people accused me of bringing this to the attention of terrorists and criminals. That’s unfair, it’s already there. The Intelligence Community must act and they must act fast. I hope my novel helps in bringing about a sense of urgency,” he says.

Lockheed Martin Team Begins Development on Third Phase of FBI’s Next Generation Identification System

Critical Design Review for Latent Fingerprint, Palm Print Matching Capability Completed Just Weeks After System’s Fingerprint Matching Capability Goes Live

ROCKVILLE, MD /PRNewswire/ ~~ The Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT)-led Next Generation Identification (NGI) team is beginning to fully develop and deploy a capability that will enhance the FBI’s latent fingerprint matching accuracy and introduce palm print matching to the system. Development efforts began after a successful Critical Design Review (CDR) for the system’s Increment 3.

The milestone came just weeks after the FBI declared Initial Operating Capability on NGI’s Increment 1 fingerprint matching capability.

“The FBI’s Next Generation Identification (NGI) system is now operational and providing law enforcement officials with more accurate fingerprint identification services than ever before,” said June Shrewsbury, vice president of Lockheed Martin’s Citizen Protection Solutions division. “We’re excited to keep up the momentum and begin implementing the system’s latent fingerprint and palm print matching capabilities.”

The latent and palm print matching algorithms for the NGI system will be provided by Alexandria, Va.-based MorphoTrak. MorphoTrak also provided the system’s fingerprint matching algorithms.

NGI’s Increment 2: Repository for Individuals of Special Concern (RISC), is also progressing according to schedule. Now in the final stages of development, this phase will provide law enforcement users more speed and flexibility in how they search the FBI’s RISC fingerprint database, which includes Wanted Persons, Known or Appropriately Suspected Terrorists, Sex Offenders Registry subjects, and other persons of special interest.

NGI is providing an incremental replacement of the FBI’s current Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System (IAFIS). The Lockheed Martin-led NGI team includes Accenture, BAE Systems Information Technology Inc., Global Science & Technology (GST), and Innovative Management & Technology Services (IMTS).

Headquartered in Bethesda, Md., Lockheed Martin is a global security company that employs about 126,000 people worldwide and is principally engaged in the research, design, development, manufacture, integration and sustainment of advanced technology systems, products and services. The Corporation’s 2010 sales from continuing operations were $45.8 billion.
