CareerFOCUS - First Things First

An Edge for Networking Events
by Patricia Fripp

We all attend events promoted as the perfect format to make new contacts and develop potential business relationships. I am constantly amazed by how many talented and well-educated people often do not know how to maximize such events.

CareerFOCUS - First Things First

Daily Reminders to Enhance Your Performance
By F. John Reh

Be on time for appointments. If you schedule a meeting, set a time to visit with a client, or tell a friend you'll meet them for a working breakfast you have to be there at the time you set or you will lose their respect. If your dispatcher tells a client the serviceman will be there at 1pm, make sure he is. It's just common courtesy, but it will really help your business.

Set S.M.A.R.T. Goals. Goals you set for yourself, or others, should be Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Time-based.

Stop and smell the roses. Believe it or not, you will do a better job with your business if you let your mind wander once...
