The Inner Game of Networking


Tennis picture.jpgWelcome to my blog!  

While I haven't picked up a tennis racket in more than a decade, I must admit that "The Inner Game of Tennis" has made a huge impact on me during the past year.

Fortunately, a good friend recommended the book to me and I will never look at self-development or coaching the same way ever again.

The author, Timothy Gallwey, was a successful tennis coach who developed a revolutionary way of teaching the sport to his clients.  Instead of picking apart every aspect of a swing, he decided to de-clutter their minds and help them focus on non-judgmental observations.    

Networking is the key skill anyone must learn to be successful in a job search.  Networking, like tennis, can sometimes be confusing and frustrating.  Sometimes the "harder you try," the less results you seem to achieve.

I am looking forward to using this blog as a vehicle to share networking tips and strategies with you and empower you to follow your passions.  I have never settled for a job and I don't think you should either.  

I want this blog to serve as a community, so don't be shy.  Please comment, ask questions and engage with the other readers!

So tell me... what are your burning job search questions?
