Networking. The very word makes people ill. Here are 7 basics to help get you on the right path.
Innovative Business Leadership




Information Radiators. We all use them but it is likely you haven’t consciously stopped to think about them in a while. Which ones do you use? Which work for you? Which could be better?

Social CRM is a relatively new term we should be aware of. As an individual, you may already be familiar with it…whether you know it or not.

When was the last time someone asked you that? The question turns stereotypical ‘networking’ on its ear.

It’s not often the boss tells you the way it is, even if only from his or her perspective. Mr. Mackay’s perspective is fairly unique in the market of job search books…at least that I’ve come across. He is actually a CEO making hiring and firing decisions. His views, and advice, are based on 40 years of staffing decisions.
The world around us continues to evolve; nothing new there. But many organizations, even as they change what they look like, have largely stayed the same inside. Social, technical, global evolution has now come so far organizations simply have no choice but to finally begin changing who they are inside.
Successful, being happy, is more about the value of relationships with the people you know, how you can help them, how you can be both mentor and mentee.
When evaluating a new job, look beyond the ‘tangible’ considerations. Use your network, listen to hallway discussions, ask for an org chart…
