On Monday evening, November 2nd, there will be a combined dinner meeting for current members, alumni, and guests of IT-Networking, MIS Network Associates (MNA), Monmouth Networking, Bergen FENG, The Breakfast Club NJ (TBCNJ), ETP Network, and Careers in Transition (CIT), and TENG at the Holiday Inn, Totowa, NJ.

 

The dinner meeting will include a presentation by Eli Amdur on "The job market is ready to rebound. Are you?". 

 

Eli is a Career Coach, Weekly Career Columnist for The Record where he writes a column every Sunday on career related issues, Adjunct Professor, FDU Graduate Business School, and Corporate Leadership Consultant. A recent article by Eli is included below. On Monday, November 2nd Eli will discuss:

 

 

ü      Overview of the market

ü      The rules have changed – forever

ü      Your first change: ATTITUDE

ü      Job readiness checklist

ü      Becoming a "five-tool" player

ü      How to be a "Career A.P.E." (Assess / Plan / Execute)

ü      Leaving your "passive job seeker" behind

 

 

The schedule for the dinner meeting on November 2nd will be:

 

-         6:00 pm          Registration, cash bar, and "speed dating"

-         6:45 to 7:15    Individual introductions with RSVP list reference – see below

-         7:00 pm          Dinner

-         8:00 pm          Eli Amdur's presentation with appropriate Q & A

 

Following our usual meeting format, after you have registered and added your resume, bio, etc. to the handout piles, everyone will participate in a series of informal networking groups of  3 to 5 participants  i.e. "speed dating", before we sit down for dinner and the general introductions.  Briefly, these informal groups last for approximately 10 minutes.  At the end of the 10 minutes, the groups disperse, and new ones are formed with different participants.  Suggested dialogues for the groupings will be provided at the registration desk.

 

There will be an opportunity to circulate up to 50 copies of your resume, personal bio, leads, or other appropriate material in a handout from the dinner.

 

The cost will be $30 for everyone if forwarded by mail or other to John Sampson by COB on Friday, October 23rd at 2 Blackfoot Cir, Wayne NJ 07470.  Checks should be made out to John Sampson. He can be reached at 973-248-3251. John's email is jcsspike@yahoo.com. Reservations can also be made through Lizanne Fiorentino at adminedg@optonline.net.

 

An RSVP list of attendees will be created and can be used to facilitate your networking activity.  Current or last work affiliation, email address, and membership organization should be included in your RSVP.  If you are in transition, please include the names of three target companies and the kind of position(s) you are seeking. If you are currently employed, you should provide the name of your last three employers. The preliminary RSVP will be distributed to the recipients of the initial mailing of this announcement and to all those on the list the week end before the dinner meeting for editing and informational purposes.  A "final" numbered RSVP list will be available at the registration desk on Monday the 2nd and can be used as part of your general introduction …"I'm # x on the RSVP list".

 

Since there will be walk-ins on the November 2nd, the actual final list will be emailed to the attendees as quickly as possible after the 2nd. The RSVP # will also appear on your name badge which will be available at the registration desk on the November 2nd.

 

The cost will be $45. if received after COB on October 23rd and before November 2nd.  We will accept a LIMITED number of walk-ins on November 2nd.  Their cost will be $60 without exception as well as for RSVP's whose checks have not been received by COB on the November 1st. There will be NO refunds and no shows WILL be billed.

 

Again, attendees should bring 50 copies of their bio/resume, leads or materials they wish to be included in the handout for the evening of November 2nd.

 

If you would like to help out at the meeting on the 2nd, volunteer to be a "Meeting Marshall".  Call John Sampson at 973-248-3251 for details. We can use your help!!!

 

Directions to the Holiday Inn at One Rt. 46 Westbound in Totowa Park can be found at www.holiday-inn.com/totowanj  The venue,  located on Rt. 46,  has substantial traffic at rush hour; therefore, you should allow at least 30 minutes additional time for your trip to Totowa on Monday, November 2nd.

 

Please join us for an evening of building your personal network, great networking opportunities, and/or a chance to just catch up.  

 

Keep the human element in your job search.

By Eli Amdur

Reprinted by permission

Last week, after running a four-week series of articles on creativity and its role in your career, I received a nice note from Bill, who said, "I am not a regular reader of your columns; at nearly 80 I'm not hankering for a "career" but I've always been interested in creativity and read whatever I can find about it. I enjoyed your use of it for finding work. Creativity is one of the more important aspects of being human and we could use more of it."

What's nice about Bill's comment is that (a) I love getting advice and perspective from people who have been on this planet longer than I, and (b) he brings up an even more important point than I did: being human.

Now, we can go into the subject of being human on many levels, but one is imminent: staying in touch – on a personal and "in the flesh" way with those with whom you are doing your networking.

The importance of networking is pretty much understood by many people, but what's in question is the method(s) most people use. I'm talking about the social and professional networking sites like LinkedIn, Facebook, and many others. These sites have huge power and multiple applications; they're true marvels, and I think that anyone who isn't using them wisely is missing a vital part of the networking function.

That said, though, there is one thing these sites are – and always will be – missing: the magic of the personal encounter – the human element. The problem many job seekers (or business people) have is that once they get on these sites, that's the extent of what they call networking. It's a mistake many people make today, and not just with networking. We have sacrificed face time; we have lost the skill of "high touch," as Daniel H. Pink describes it. And we need to get it back. Let me give you two cases in point.

A couple of weeks ago, I addressed a joint evening meeting of four professional networking groups: FENG, MENG, SENG, and TENG (the ENG stands for Executive Networking Group; and the first letters of each acronym stand for Financial, Marketing, Strategic, and Technical). My friend, Marty Latman (you might remember an article I did about four months ago in which I called him the best career networker I've ever met in my life), put these four groups together for the event.

I'm sure that every one of the 80-plus people in the room is on more than one social or professional networking site. OK, fine. But you should have seen the buzz in the room before and after my presentation. The room was alive with people shaking hands, introducing themselves, exchanging business cards, asking questions, making suggestions, giving advice, jotting down notes, spotting someone else across the room and heading over there to begin a new encounter, creating little mini-groups, and so on. They were "working the room" in a way that cannot be done on line.

In the fifteen brief minutes between the end of my talk and when I had to depart for a late dinner engagement, I must have shaken 40 hands and exchanged business cards with most of those people, one of whom is Monique de Maio, who runs MENG and is the founder and managing partner of onDemandCMO, a marketing consultancy in Bergen County, NJ. Within a couple of days, Monique and I were in touch and are now exploring mutual opportunities – real opportunities – for business. To me, that's networking at its best. It was done in person, not online. Human to human.

My other story is about Lindsey Greene Barrett, whom I know since she registered for my MBA class at FDU in 2004. Aside from developing an ongoing friendship, we are now colleagues; she is adjunct professor of a cool course at FDU called Women as Entrepreneurs. Lindsey also has her own business called Women Throughout Time, which researches and creates presentations, seminars and workshops about current and historic women's topics.

Last week at FDU, Lindsey organized and moderated a panel of five incredibly interesting and immensely successful women from the worlds of publishing, international business, politics, marketing, and technology. To try to capture the essence and the dynamics of these women in one column like this would be futile. Suffice to say, it was high level, edifying, and inspiring.

But that's not the point. One of Lindsey's questions to these women was about the use of technology in their careers, and what came through was crystal clear. They all agreed that technology is something to be leveraged, and – as such – it is a tool. They all use these tools, but without a doubt, these women didn't get to where they were by sitting behind a computer all day.

And that became all the more evident as the interaction between the panelists and the eager and appreciative audience exploded into a dynamic meet-and-greet afterwards. More handshaking, more business cards, more questions and discussions, more referrals, some resumes getting passed around, the whole nine yards. Instant networking groups swirled around each of the panelists. That, too, is networking at its best. Very human.

Which brings us back to Bill, who apparently never has lost sight of being human, with all its aspects, and whose brief email comment actually was affirmation of some very good advice about being – and remembering to stay – human.

Lessons Learned from Geese

Posted by: "robertjzanfardino" zanfardino4@earthlink.net   robertjzanfardino

Fri Oct 9, 2009 10:00 am (PDT)



Folks,

This was given to me recently on and individual's business card. I have passed it around and wanted to share it with you. This really does explain the value of networking.

Lessons from Geese

As each goose flap its wings, it creates an uplift for the birds that follow. By flying in a "V" formation the whole flock adds 71% extra flying range.

Lesson # 1 – People who share a sense of community can help each other get to where they are going more easily,because, they are traveling on the trust of one another.

When a goose falls out of formation, it suddenly feels the drag and the resistance of flying alone. It quickly moves back to take advantage of the lifting power of the birds in front.

Lesson #2 – If we have as much sense as geese we stay in formation with those headed where we want to go. We are willing to accept their help and give our helps to others.

When a lead goose tires, it drops back into the formation and another goose flies to the point.

Lesson #3 – It pays to take turns doing the hard tasks. We should respect and protect each other's unique arrangements of skills, capabilities, talents and resources.

The geese flying in formation honk to encourage those up front to keep up with their speed.

Lesson#4 –We need to make sure our honking is encouraging. In groups where there is encouragement, production is much greater. Individual empowerment results from quality honking.

When a goose gets sick, two geese drop out of formation and follow it down to help and protect it.

Lesson #5 – If we have as much sense as geese, we will stand by each other in difficult times as well as when we are strong.
