The new blend of generations, race, gender and ethnicity has created a workforce that is more diverse than ever before.


Ten Top Networking Tips
 
These tips, and the idea of nurturing your network, are even more important now.  Your network is your life raft during the stormy seas of this economic downturn.  It is the fastest way to find the shore or, at least, an island where you can ride out the storm. Reach out and connect with your network.  Take the time to make a call, grab a coffee or catch up over dinner.

Get Free of Economic Doom and Gloom
 
There is the situation, like the ‘economy’, and then there is what you tell yourself about it. As far as your own resilience, creativity and ability to find solutions is concerned, it is the stories that you tell yourself that helps or hinders you, not the situation itself.  Do you notice your mind ‘going-on’ about the economy? Are you repeating doom and gloom stories over and over in your mind?

Our tumultuous economic climate is forcing many business owners to make many tough choices.  But the bottom-line to remaining competitive is to stay committed to investing in your most important asset: your employees.
Studies show that only 30 percent of employees are actually engaged at work.
