Last summer, I sat in my beach chair, flanked by my two daughters and enjoyed the Sunday afternoon sun as we watched our surfers. The day had started off a bit foggy but the midday heat soon erased the memory of our cooler morning. The sounds of children delighted squealing and mothers’ seagull-like beckoning filled [...]

What is Social Media? It’s a fusion of sociology and technology, transforming monologues (one to many) into dialogues (many to many) and is the democratization of information, transforming people from content readers into publishers. Three years ago, this was part of the definition of Social Media given by Answers.com, as stolen from Wikipedia. I find [...]

Function 4:  to CONTROL Take a step back now…  Can you see, in full view, the tireless work involved in good management?  Many think, now is the time to relax; I doubt that Ray Kroc ever thought that. The minute you let your guard down, a bit of control is lost, motivation drops below sea [...]

A Risk That Paid Off

Four years ago I saw the writing on the wall. My job as a corporate recruiter was at risk. The trickling fall-in of the recession was taking its toll, seemingly one soul at a time. I surveyed the landscape of my gig and realized that, due to the changes that were taking place within my company and on Wall Street, I [...]

Some Things Never Change

Social Media – what has it done for you? I am continually fascinated by the round of complaints that occur every time technology evolves or improves on networks like Facebook. I rarely notice these changes until somebody else complains. They just are part of the evolution of new media. I embrace these upgrades because I automatically assume [...]

The Elevation of Innovation: What’s Next?

by Ray_anne
world of tech

Is relevance just a matter of perspective?  Of course, it is. I attended a marketing summit recently.  It was not a recruiting conference or a recruiting unconference.  It was a meeting of local marketing minds from mobile, public relations, social media, and…, wait for it…, the soon-to-be extinct direct marketing.  I have attended multiple tech [...]

Balancing Your Gain – it’s all part of life

by Ray_anne
peace....

Part of Life and Part of Business are barely distinguishable for me.  And that can be a good thing, but also a bad thing.  I have always prided myself with being crystal clear, original, transparent – as what I write about consistently proves.  Life sometimes gets in the way of business and business sometimes get [...]

The Universal Code – Golden Rules, part 2

by Ray_anne
It's all in the code...

There is a code that has lived on in time, as long as man has had conscious thoughts and passed them on or written them down.  It is called the universal code – it covers basic ethics – it isn’t an abundance of good – actual “doing” good – but more of “not doing” bad [...]

I can remember when I bought my first stereo, it played cassette tapes and had a radio.  It was post-the LP /vinyl album era and pre-compact disc.  I LOVED it!  Since I have already dated myself, I’ll go one further:  the first album I ever bought was Billy Joel’s The Nylon Curtain.  Eight-track tapes had [...]

Sourcing Talent & Building Pipelines with Geolocation

by Jessica Miller-Merrell

Geolocation systems seem to be on every social media expert’s mind these days.  Like any new technology, geolocation is an interesting and untested tool that I believe can be used as a way to further strengthen your company’s brand, drive consumers to your multiple locations, and as well as a great way to inexpensively market [...]
