Market Your MAGIC 5 SelfMarketing Strategies for Success
The ability to market yourself internally within an organization or within your industry can boost your career and personal fulfillment. It can make the difference between people remembering you as a brilliant leader and contributor, or barely remembering you. I created a “MAGIC” formula for success, based on 5 aspects of effective self-marketing: improve your Manner (the way you walk, talk, meet people, and treat people) create Advocates (people who create “buzz” about you and your company or services.), Grow (grow in craft, market and self), get Involved (in internal and external groups, etc.), and create Commentary (speak up at meetings, write articles, etc.). MAGIC reinforces P.T. Barnum’s principle: “Without promotion, something terrible happens … nothing.” You can use my MAGIC formula to unleash your potential and achieve goals.

How to Avoid the Pitfalls of Micromanagement.
Are you constantly checking the work of your team members? Are you a perfectionist? I define micromanagement as: Often unintentionally, a micromanager delves into too much detail. Rather than allowing people the responsibility and freedom to do their job, the micromanager monitors and reviews every task.
