Six Year Anniversary

I started writing “a” blog on this day in 2004. I cannot believe it has been six years. I’ve been through a lot in that time. I was running a telemarketing operation at the time. Then I had back surgery. I tried to launch an outsourcing business with some partners. That failed. I went to [...]

3 Ideas
June 18th, 2010 · 1 Comment · career, change, networking, personal branding, social networking
I have been chewing on a few ideas for awhile now. Earlier this week I attended a Meetup for readers of Seth Godin’s “Linchpin”. The event helped me solidify some ideas. I liked the event. There were less than 20 people there. There was opportunities for “networking”. Welcome networking. Not 100 people in a room [...]

Just read a July 8th article from Knowledge@Wharton: Caught in the Middle: Rising Unemployment Takes Its Toll on Older Managers that will cause you to lose some sleep. Especially if you are believing the hype that “it is getting better out there.” It isn’t. And it won’t. The opening paragraph sets the pace: U.S. recessions [...]

Interesting read from the Career Strategies section of the WSJ Online in the last week or so. Beyond Job Boards: Targeting the Source provides me with some more cannon fodder for my Using Social Media in Your Job Search presentation I am trying to give. I was arguing with CareerSherpa’s Hannah Morgan the other day [...]
