Last week(s)

 

You've stood on your head long enough: now go reap the harvest of your hard blogging work!

The last coaching session is over: once again, I am very impressed by the results and the spectrum of topics. It is now up to you to do something with it.

Some blogs were more research-focused than others – these are necessarily not in the same shape as blogs since they were completed later. Some topics are revisited from previous semesters though you approached these topics with a fresh mind (IBMan, food, culture).

Whatever state your blog is in: keep looking at the google analytics indices as you tell friends and family about your achievement (using well-known channels on which you communicate, like facebook). If your project contains a commercial idea, consider developing it: after all, you are business students!

As for me, I’m glad once again that we did this and I am looking forward to your professional project presentations in the course of the coming weeks!

And if you haven’t done it yet: why don’t you take a virtual stroll down your colleagues’ blogs – it’s the summer of serendipity!

Blogging and your future career

Source: weeklyreader.com

Another HWR professor (Bruce Spear, who, incidentally, will take over this course in the fall when i go into my research sabbatical) wrote this to me today:

” I’ve learned of another of my students today having presented her blogging during a job interview and the interviewer was blown away, said this made her stand out from the rest, was curious about what she’d done, and offered her a job. She turned it down for something better, but when she told her story her classmates sat up straight in their chairs. “

do i need to say more?
