A Big Week
For many of us here in the States, there is much anticipation amongst fans of US Football. By the time many of you read this, we will know which two teams will make it to the BIG GAME - the Super Bowl - the crowning event of the season. As usual, this got me thinking about the culture of football, or any other sporting event and how networking happens when people come together to watch such events.
To further the point, I had the fortune of receiving an email the other day from our former Sports Editor, Scott Manthorne mentioning that his organization, Athletes
& Executives was busy preparing for what he calls the "Super Bowl of Networking" to take place in Arizona during the time of the actual Super Bowl. It always amazes me, no matter what sport, no matter what the purpose of our networking is, people always find a way to network.
Speaking of big weeks, this week marks the debut of our new Great Lakes Bureau Chief, Cindy Dunston Quirk, Principal of Leap! Creative Mind out of Indianapolis, IN. Cindy is an accomplished writer and works with organizations such as non-profits to get their messages into print. Many long time Great Lakes readers out there may remember Cindy who filled in for Mark Sturgell (our former chief) back in October, 2007 when he was ill. WELCOME CINDY!!!
Speaking again of big weeks, we are proud to announce that TNNW has a new sponsor: qAlias.com!

Speaking even more of big weeks, this is personally a big week for me as I launch my first foray into book writing. As many of you know, I have been asked to be a contributing writer for the book, "The Emergence of The Relationship Economy", which is being released in ebook this Tuesday and hardcopy in early February. I wanted to thank TNNW Contributing Writer Jay Deragon for the opportunity. We've been quite fortunate to have received some very favorable reviews...to see for yourself, please see the section entitled, "The Emergence of The Relationship Economy" below.
MARK KERRIGAN, Owner of On the Mark Writing of Nashville, TN is the winner of December's contest. To find out how you can be the next winner, check out "January's Contest" below!
As always, I look forward to networking with you...
