Engaging in social media in a purposeful way is a deliberate strategy to build impact and influence. In a fragile economy, doing so is smart.

It’s like deciding you want to lose weight. Dreaming about it won’t make it so. Making time for exercise, changing bad eating habits, etc is what will create the change and transformation over time.

You would be surprised at how smart social
Media engagement can bring opportunities and change lives. But it requires planning and time in the game.

Many DEI professionals carve out time specifically for professional development, attending conferences during work hours or strategically planning them around vacations.

Three job interviews with a company, last one creating a marketing plan and presenting to marketing VP. I received good feedback from him. Three days later recruiter wants to give me a call and “give an update”. Schedules it after 2 days. This morning cancels last minute as they are having “internal discussions”. I’m really annoyed and tired. Thoughts?
