A NOTE FROM THE CHAIRMAN: Disney Expat Joins TNNW

We have gotten a few reports that some of our readers using Microsoft's Internet Explorer (IE) are having difficulties reading our articles. We have done some considerable research on this matter and we have found that there are indeed certain incompatibilities between IE and Blogger (the service we use for our articles, and a product of Google). While we are hard at work to come up with a suitable work-around as the two technical titans continue to battle each other, we recognize this as a source of frustration to some of our valued readers.

We suggest the following until we finish some technical changes on our side:
1.) Mozilla Firefox is a wonderful browser, it's quicker than IE, more secure and our readers who use Firefox have had no problems viewing our content. To get Firefox (it's free), click here.
2.) Subscribe to our daily email feed. All of our articles (as well as valuable extras) come to you via email formatted specifically for your inbox. Click here for the daily email feed.
3.) Under the category of "it's cheesy, but it works", when you click on an article and it "boots you out" after loading, click the back button on your browser - the article will load again, and this time it should work. Sometimes you may need to do this 2 or 3 times. Obnoxious...yes...I recommend #1 or #2.

We apologize for any inconvenience and should have a suitable work around by August - we appreciate your patience.

Now, onto more exciting stuff...

Last week we introduced several new writers:
Leanne Hoagland-Smith - Working Within
Sandy McKee - Speak Aloha and Let Your Voice Be Heard
Wendy Kovitz - Networking Fun for the Introverted

This week, we are proud to introduce John A. Lee, CEO & President of eventScheme LLC with his new column It All Starts With Us! John brings with him a wealth of experience, including 20 years at The Walt Disney Company as Executive Producer at both the theme parks as well as Walt Disney Studios. As an inductee into the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, he is a regular voter and judge for the Emmy Awards. WELCOME JOHN!!!

And if that wasn't enough, wait until we introduce the last of this month's new writers. This new writer is, by far, the most mysterious writer we have ever allowed into our prestigious TNNW family. Furthermore, their column is going to make TNNW history as the scariest column to ever be published in our pages! To give you an idea as to how scary it really is, my friend, business partner and blood-brother-in-arms, Douglas Castle, has been spotted with beads of sweat upon his head at the mere mention of it.

Stay tuned...all will be revealed...we're going out in July with a bang...and perhaps a few scratches and bruises too. Who says we're not willing to "take it on the chin" for our subscribers?

As always, I look forward to Networking with you,

Adam

A NOTE FROM THE CHAIRMAN: Disney Expat Joins TNNW

IT ALL STARTS WITH US!: An Introduction

It All Starts with Us! with John A. Lee

Welcome to my first column for The National Networker! I would like to thank Adam for inviting here to share my personal observations on the Power of Networking. The distinguished company of other columnists who publish here humbles me. They have some very impactful messages that we can all learn from and I hope to enhance this site with my own strategies and experiences as well.

Networking for me is a thrill. Discovering new contacts, understanding their needs, and introducing them to a potential problem-solver. During the months to follow, I will put my spin on networking as I discuss such topics as recovery solutions, personal accountability and branding, strategic partnerships, and alliances, “paying forward” when an immediate return or benefit can’t be seen, and dozens of other related issues.

It used to be all about “who do you know.” Today, it’s all about “who does ‘who-you-know’ know.” When you start to do the addition -- No! make that multiplication -- you suddenly have access to thousands of potential contacts with just a couple of generations of friends of friends. In spite of the uncertain times, my discovery is. . . people genuinely are eager to help make a connection for you. I will help you capitalize on this phenomenon as long as you are willing to do the same for others – quid pro quo.

So, offer a leg up. Lend a hand. Refer a connection. Listen with an open mind. Think of how you can help. Just do it!

Because, like the name of this column. . . It All Starts With Us!
