Professional Courtesy…It’s Not Rocket Science

Your Career and You: “The End and the Beginning”

Your Career and You: “Chaos…It’s Normal”
The past four months have been a test both of my sanity and my patience. Dealing with banks. Dealing with real estate developers. Everything in preparation for a major change in my life that involves leaving what has been “home” … Continue reading

Your Career and You: “To Be…or Not To Be…MBA?”
Conversations with my undergrad COM/PR students at Curry College cover the waterfront…from “what kind of paper should I print my resume on?” to “how do I start my job search?” and beyond. One that bubbles up more and more often, … Continue reading

Your Career and You: “Tomorrow…It Begins…Again”
I’m sitting here looking out at a magnificently miserable day and thinking back on the year that is in its final days. For the most part, good memories, with a few “challenges” thrown in just to keep things interesting. The … Continue reading

Your Career and You: “Connections…They Bring Us Together”
A series of events this past weekend really brought home the meaning for me of “connections.” The first was…thanks to a blundering electrician from our town’s utilities department…a total loss of telephone and internet service for five l-o-o-n-n-n-g-g-g-g days. Thankfully, … Continue reading
