Speaker Bio
Rick Gillis is the author* of “Leveling the Paying Field, A Groundbreaking Approach to Achieving Fair Pay”, “Job! Search Optimized” and “PROMOTE! Your Work Does Not Speak for Itself.You Do!”
Gillis’ most recent book, “Leveling the Paying Field” published by Indigo River Publishing, is unquestionably his crowning achievement. In this book Gillis takes on the pay inequity/pay disparity issue and provides a workable solution for anyone who believes they are not being paid fairly for the work they do.
For those individuals not willing to wait for the government or their organization to achieve pay parity, Gillis offers them the opportunity to take this issue into their own hands.
WHY IS FAIR PAY IMPORTANT TO RICK GILLIS?
At the age of 16, working part-time and earning more money than his single-mother was working full-time, Gillis recognized something was not right but had no idea how to ‘fix it’. Looking back, he now knows that experience was to become the guiding star in his life and professional journey.
With more than twenty years of job search support and career advising experience, Gillis has now created the QTNT® (Quotient) Personal Value Calculation process to teach workers (as well as their employers) how to identify and assign individual value to job performance and personal accomplishment in an all-new way. Gillis, the inventor of this very simple, easy to use, performance metric shows you how the QTNT truly does level the ‘paying’ field.
Leveling the Paying Field includes fourteen Q-Studies, real step-by-step stories of clients Gillis has worked with to determine the value of their work and how much they contributed above and beyond what was required of them. What Gillis has learned over 20+ years of counseling job search clients is that most clients were not aware of just how much value they delivered to their employers.
