Navigating business networking these days can be confusing at best. My friend Jeff Klein offers two excellent excellent teleseminars on the subject. Learning the rules of the networking road becomes more and more necessary as more and more toes get trodden upon.
There are more networking tips out there than one can read in a day, and I thought these five from an article written by Liz Ryan were some of the best:

“The Whole Process Has Changed–And I was so Overwhelmed”
“Carolann and Miriam helped me reframe my job search. It’s more than a search of the job boards. It’s really a search for others who are traveling the same way and to whom I have something to give….Thank you, ladies, for shining bright lights through the murky waters of job seeking for us!”
This testimonial makes me want to smile and cry all at the same time. Miriam Salpeter and I were able to help so many people with our teleseminar series Land Your Dream Job. That makes me happy that we could be of service.

The Most Important Lesson Learned from a Lessons Learned Session
Photo by Nancy
There is nothing quite like working hard on a project, finally getting out into the world, and then having a well-intentioned meeting meant to improve the quality of the next endeavor which devolves into everything but the kitchen sink that went wrong. (It’s even better when we can find another group to blame.)
Focusing on what went wrong is demoralizing and doesn’t add value. There, I said it. Sacrilege, I know.

Does Work Have to Be Drudgery in Order For a Company to be Profitable?
Photo by Adriana Lukas
The quick answer is “of course not,” but isn’t that what many leaders in companies believe to be true?
If people didn’t believe that to be true, then why do people look at me like I’m a green, two-headed martian when I tell them that I partner with leaders to create fun and profitable workplaces? Seriously, it is like these two things can’t go together and I’m some sort of nut job for thinking that they do.

What to Do With That Statement From the Social Security Administration

The temptation is to shred it.
I’ll be the first to admit that I don’t much appreciate my complete social security number printed on anything, and that green envelope that says “TO BE OPENED BY ADDRESSEE ONLY, UNDER PENALTY OF LAW” might as well say “PLEASE…. STEAL THE IDENTITY INSIDE.”
I digress.

Another Reason Why “Speaking Mastery” Rocked
What I’ve noticed about attending excellent seminars is that they tend to attract excellent people. The Speaking Mastery Conference attracted exceptional people, and I am grateful for having had the opportunity to connect with them.

One Reason Why “Speaking Mastery” Rocked
Photo by Nicholas Laughlin
Many of you know that I just got back from Business Growth Solutions’ Speaking Mastery Conference in Kansas City because I was pinging about it periodically through the weekend. There was so much great information and energy, I though my cranium couldn’t hold it. For those solopreneurs and small business owners who use public speaking to promote their business, I highly recommend both the Grow Your Business Live! event and the Speaking Mastery.

What’s Your Saddest-But-Can-Now-Laugh-At Red-Flag Story?
Miriam Salpeter, my partner for “Land Your Dream Job” and I were talking about some of the “horror” stories from her recruiter friends about major faux pas that candidates have done in interviews (such as calling their previous boss an insane a$$hole). She recently wrote a post on her blog about Red Flags and not ignoring them. It’s tough in this economic climate when all the news is bad, and I’m not looking at your mortgage statement. That said, it has been both of our experiences (which again, aren’t your experiences) that most people who ignore the “red flags” end up regretting it.

Inspirational Workplace Q&A – We’re Having a RIF. What Can We Do To Help Our Laid Off Employees Make the Transition

Q: I am so overwhelmed. I work in Human Resources for a mid-size business, and we’re having to reduce our staff. I’ve worked side-by-side for several years with many of these people, and it breaks my heart that we’re having to do this. How can I make this easier for them.

Top 3 Tips for Choosing a Great Coach
Photo by Todd Lappin
Imagine…. I am standing high on my soapbox.
Last week, I got an invite to a teleseminar “How To Get Started As A Coach (Even Part-Time), Be Well-Paid
To Share What You Know And Help Lots of People” I should have known from the “part-time” that I wouldn’t like what was going to be said. This was a “get rich quick” type thing, and it’s misleading…. and infuriating as the “Coach in a Box” people are unleashed on the world.
