    "Call it Web 2.0, or Enterprise 2.0; the fact of the matter is that online services just make more sense for businesses on a budget. Because these software platforms are web-based, users can use any computer to access them at work, at home or even on the road. They eliminate the need for expensive software and fewer IT employees are required for setup, updates and patches to systems. "

  • Form and charter a team with a project, process improvement, or product development task.
  • Read about group and team norms to understand the concept.
  • Schedule and hold a meeting to establish and adopt group relationship guidelines or group norms.
  • With an external facilitator leading, or a member of the group, in the absence of a facilitator, leading, all group members should brainstorm a list of guidelines that will help create an effective team.
  • Once the list of group norms is generated, you will want to cross redundant ideas off the list.
  • Each member of the group commits to “living” the guidelines.
  • Following the meeting, distribute the group norms to all team members.
  • Periodically evaluate the effectiveness of the group on achieving its business goals as well as its members’ relationship goals.

D#7.0 HW#4 Email etiquette for effective email replies - 1 views

  • Be aware that when you send an email in rich text or HTML format, the sender might only be able to receive plain text emails. If this is the case, the recipient will receive your message as a .txt attachment. Most email clients however, including Microsoft Outlook, are able to receive HTML and rich text messages.
  • Do not forward chain letters. We can safely say that all of them are hoaxes. Just delete the letters as soon as you receive them.
  • This will almost always annoy your recipient before he or she has even read your message.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • Use a meaningful subject
  • Even more so than the high-priority option, you must at all times try to avoid these types of words in an email or subject line. Only use this if it is a really, really urgent or important message.

    This is a comprehensive list of email etiquette, including many things I had not heard before or read in chapter 12...such as, ""Do not copy a message or attachment without permission" and "use active instead of passive" voice.

  • CareerBuilder, Jobster, and MyWorkster, have a section of your profile where you can include video.
  • Dress professionally in business attire, just as if you were going to an in-person interview. Keep your video resume short: one - three minutes. Look at the camera not at the desk or table below you. Don't speak too fast. Make sure there isn't any background noise and that the wall behind you isn't too busy. Practice what you're going to say ahead of time. Start by mentioning your name (first and last). Focus on your professional endeavors, not your personal ones. Discuss why you would be a good employee and what you can do for the company that hires you. Thank the viewer for considering you for employment.

    Great tips on video resumes. How to make them as well as why they help.
  •  
    Video resumes are different than a Typical resume because you're actually the one in front of the camera and speaking about who you are and what you do. This is a lot different and I would say harder then writing your information on a piece of paper. But the advantages of this are they can see you for who you really are and not what's written on a piece of paper. A disadvantage of this is that you have to make sure you pin point your audience is and that can be difficult at times. When writing something on a paper it's easy to address certain people but when you are actually in front of someone or in front of a camera you have to work a little harder to present yourself in the right way.

    This website provides useful information about video resumes. I liked that it provided tips that will help us prepare when making a video resume. The tip I thought was important was making sure to keep the video short. It also provided a list of "don't"s. I like that it mentioned not to mix one's personal life with the professional one.
