Apr 15, 2012 | 2

Of all of the crucial elements and aspects of social media to take into consideration regarding best practices for successful networking and marketing, using a personal profile as a business is the one that makes me fall to my knees and gasp for air - every time I see it. …

Do you have a pitch in your pocket?

Aug 13, 2011 |  

I want you to be so successful the exclamation point gets tired of being used. One tool to get you there is an elevator pitch, the :30 second audible business card you'll need to develop. Here's a tool to help you develop it. I'm against the exploitation of animals for human gain but I'm clapping like a circus seal - it's so cool.…

I typed Craig N. Piso, Ph. D. to Present Increasing Employee Engagement and Satisfaction at .... and I was distracted by someone outside of my office calling out that we were down.

I lost what I was working on but it was OK, I would just go to lunch a little early, stay a little long and come back to normal to pick up where I had left off. Wrongo...…

Aug 18, 2010 | 12

I entered HR via recruiting, dissatisfied with the quality of candidates put before me to interview and having to pick my poison hoping it worked out because I would be held largely accountable for turnover.
