Do you ever think about how your social media activates will effect your future employment prospects?

An interesting report...

Social networking and reputational risk in the workplace -

What effect can social media have on you if you are on the "other end of the stick" as a business owner? Have you developed any policies, plans or protocols to deal with social media and how your staff (or customers) could destroy your reputation?.

What work have you done on your organizations culture, values and ethics to take account of (and hopefully mitigate) the risks to your reputation and business viability that online communities present. Is social media part of your S.W.O.T. analysis?

The Six elements of a Good Decision

Great article by decision making guru Carl Spetzler

"(1) The right frame — making sure you’re solving the right problem in the first place.

(2) Clarity about what you want. For example, are you trying to maximize shareholder value or just trying to stay alive and minimize damage?

(3) Creative alternatives. [remember all ideas are good ideas until proven otherwise]

(4) Gathering the right information, including information about uncertainty, which is essential if you want to choose the best alternative.

(5) Reasoning, which includes what you know and what you don’t.

(6) A commitment to make it happen, since a decision is no stronger than its weakest link."

Two great decision making articles:

Managing innovative projects: Don't mistake the map for the journey...

... or compliance as success! Article by Rick Freedman of TechRepublic

'The lesson that project managers need to understand is that compliance with project specifications does not constitute project success; in the ultimate analysis, only business results matter. Stated another way, the largest risk in any project is not that it will deviate from plan; it’s the risk that the final outcome won’t fulfill the real need. Predictive methodologies, such as the techniques championed by the Project Management Institute in its PM Body of Knowledge, can add tremendous value, especially for projects for which we have a historical basis to look to for precedent. For truly innovative projects, in which any prediction is little more than guesswork and for which we’ll be inventing never-before-seen products, we need to look for a new approach. Hence, the growing popularity of agile approaches.'

Successful Managers Don't Manage

"Management doesn’t work. It is ill-conceived and badly carried out. It is, literally, inhuman. We are all wasting our time.

This is the basic thrust of Charles Jacobs’ new book. Inspired by the latest discoveries of neuroscientists and armed with some startling scientific data..."

"Jacobs provides the scientific evidence for why this might be the case. And it leads him to believe that: “The managers who produce the best results are the ones who do the least managing ... the biggest challenge is for managers to stop doing most of what they’re doing now.”

The "obituary résumé." Résumé mistakes!

Interview of Dick Hart (AKA the Résumé Doctor) by Ruth Sheehan of "The News & Observer"

quote:

The "obituary résumé." Dick Hart  says:

'That's a document that uses stuffy formal language to describe all the stuff someone did once upon a time.'

"What employers need to know is what you can do for them," he said.

By Hart's reckoning, a jobseeker has about 20 seconds to grab the attention of the future bosses.

He has a term of art for this, too. It's called the "rule of thumb." Pick up a standard 81/2-by-11 sheet of paper. Your thumb lands about 3 inches from the top of the page.

"If you don't hook 'em by the time they get to their thumb, you can forget it,"

:end quote

The rest of the article is here:
http://www.newsobserver.com/news/sheehan/story/1531741.html however its a bit like Hart's resume advice... once you get to the thumb the rest is a bit useless.
