Tech PR / Social Media Advisor / Content Strategist
As I travel, attend trade shows and industry conferences, I often get a chance to meet the authors whose books I review. In this case, I've known author and management consultant, Winslow Swart for a little over 15 years. Winslow is a friend, but from a far, I've seen him work with NBA superstars and corporate executives work through the ups and downs of economic change.
Winslow's approach is to take what he's learned in being a leader and organizational Sensei who has mastered several martial arts in the dojos of Japan, offering his consulting expertise through Winslow Consulting.
In his new book, The Resilient Leader, Winslow shares those same insights, helping you draw forth increased levels of focus and resolve, transform obstacles into opportunities, and become the calm in the eye of the storm.
The Resilient Leader distills the core ideologies of the eastern martial arts disciplines into an effective curriculum for developing leadership capabilities and increasing human performance.
This is the perfect book for the perform storm we're in.Yes, you are what you Wordle - or rather what you write. This free site that lets you create beautiful “word clouds” from text that you provide. Or in the case of using Posterous like I do, it will automatically scan the contents of your site, and generate a word cloud like the one below.
In thinking how I use twitter, or for that matter, any type of social network, I find myself still thinking and operating in geographic regions of the world.
Sure, there are exceptions to the rule, and yes, I get that the world is flat, but I still find myself focused on specific regions and for different reasons. I live, work and have friends and some clients in San Antonio, where I "live."But I also have the same thing happening in California and New York, and Israel. As far as Massachusetts and the UK, it's mostly "friends," both real and virtual.
In my areas of interest, I focus on PR, Social Media, Technology and of course my love of music.
This is my view and my map of my "#twittersphere."What about yours?
"Trust Agents" by @chrisbrogan and @julien just arrived. It's gonna be my weekend reading. Required reading. Highly recommended. These are very nice and very smart people.
The best thing you can do with this book is to read it. Then order a copy or two. Or three. Or twenty, and give them to clients, prospects, or just people you know that think they'll benefit from your being an Agent of Trust.
Mosey on over to the Trust Agents site, and of course the FaceBook fan page.
So, after TweetCamp San Antonio, about 30 people showed up at my house and we jammed, drank beer, and had a blast. We are staking a claim in Social Media history as being the first band to ever spontaneously erupt as the result of an un-conference.
If there are any Social Media historians that can prove otherwise, please let me know.
Be sure to follow some of the band members and party-goers including: @epodcaster @designminded @theredrecruiter @ccolmenarm @theredrecruiter @ccolmenar @brookemiceli @reallyshecky @doingmedia @enlightenup @christinechapa @ericaogrady @promogeorge @chriskgodrey and many more....
