On numerous occasions I’ve been asked, “Who can I read to become an effective leader at work?” If I have some sense that the inquirer understands what leadership is, what are its parts (i.e., a leader, the followers, the messages, the context, and the goal), and how those parts fit together, I offer these authors without reservation: Rokeach, Glasser, Golemen, Weaver, and Greenleaf.

Many of us belong to social networks but most of us do not think of them in terms of business or work. There are a few social networks that focus on those who work. LinkedIn is one of those sites (and the most popular). These sites are geared towards anyone who works, regardless of career or industry. Why, you may ask, would you want to use a site like this? Well first, it allows you to either reconnect or stay connected to current and past friends and coworkers. Second, the site is a great place to leverage connections to find a new job. Unless you’ve experienced one of these sites it is hard to explain the benefits of registering, but this is clearly another way to extend your job search.Today’s post will focus on several business social networks.
Clearly, the value of any of these sites is determined by the number of people who are registered. As this type of social networking has become popular, quite a few new sites have popped up in the last few months. Since most people will focus on one or two of these sites, I think that the field will narrow in the medium term and I’m betting that LinkedIn is one of the winners.
I will review more sites such as these in the next few weeks. As usual, I will add these links to the “Other Resources” page.
