Every So Often, Ones' Faith in Humankind is Rekindled.
Welcome to Rewind 09 - this week on TotalPicture Radio, were replaying a few of the most memorable podcasts from 2009 - starting with an interview recorded at ERE Spring in San Diego, with Charee Klimek, chief marketing officer of JobAngels. -- Enjoy!
Charee Klimek
"JobAngels mission is to help bring people together in a community setting where each person commits to a single goal: to help just one person find gainful employment. That person can be a friend, a family member, a colleague or a complete stranger. All it takes is one person helping one other person find a job. We are nimble, innovative, determined and impassioned to drive this movement and develop a fully operational non-profit entity that enables a new generation of talent networking that is both meaningful and results-oriented."
The good folks at ERE gave Charee Klimek the main stage at ERE Expo in San Diego to tell the remarkable story of JobAngels - how one compassionate "Tweet" on Twitter gave birth to a national movement to help put people back to work. Simple, sincere, and profound. I was able to catch-up with Charee after her presentation to share her story in this Leadership podcast on Total Picture Radio.

"This recession has been more than just an economic downturn. Almost every institution you can think of is going through some kind of structural change at the moment. Change that is going to change some of the basic rules for success in each industry... We're not going to go back to normal after the recession is over."

Good Intentions Gone Wrong? Communications Coach Jean Brown Assesses the Launch of ZoomInfo's FreshContacts Promotion
Welcome to a Leadership Channel Podcast on TotalPicture Radio with Peter Clayton reporting. We're happy to have back on the program Jean T. Brown, communications expert and partner with New York City based MacKenzie Brown, LLC. Jean works with senior executives, managers, and partners of many Fortune 500 companies and law firms. She recently participated in the "Onboarding Experts Series" here on TotalPicture Radio, and I asked her to share her advice regarding the recent "dust-up" regarding Zoominfo and their FreshContacts initiative.
Last week, I published a Linkedin Question to my network regarding ZoomInfo's launch of a new initiative to help, (according to their press release), "job seekers looking to identify, research and connect with innovative companies and their hiring managers." I've found Linkedin Questions to be an excellent resource for engaging my community, and have consistently been impressed by the responses I've received. Those of you familiar with our interview with Sam Zales, the president of Zoominfo, know the responses we received through Linkedin regarding FreshContacts were immediate and overwhelmingly negative.
Here is the Linkedin Question:
I'm recording a podcast interview with Sam Zales the president of ZoomInfo tomorrow - they recently opened their database (for a limited time), to anyone willing to share their Outlook contact list - this is accomplished through a plug-in you download. Here's a link to the press release:
What should I ask Sam?
Would you be willing to swap your Outlook contacts for 2 free month's access to ZoomInfo's database?
Do you have privacy concerns related to this offer?
Thanks for your suggestions.
I posted a number of the responses I received on Zale's feature page. The interview with Jean centers on communication. I'm hoping this can be a "teachable moment" for all of us.
