Managers of One

About January last year I received a phone call from a student looking a 'work placement' with MatchMedia Ireland Ltd. This particular person I had worked with before, and those who are familiar with both myself and MatchMedia will know the gent to whom this applies. At the end of his 'placement' time I was asked to recommend him -or not as the case may be. I sat with a blank sheet of paper not really knowing what to say or indeed write (those who know me know this is an extremely unusual event). Eventually I simply quoted the business book that I had been reading and a passage entitled 'Managers of One'

 

Managers of one are people who come up with their own goals and execute them. They don’t need heavy dissection. They don’t need daily check-ins. They do what a manager would do – set the tone, assign items, determine what needs to get done, etc – but they do it by themselves and for themselves.

These people free you from oversight. They set their own direction. When you leave them alone, they surprise you with how much they’ve gotten done. They don’t need a lot of hand-holding or supervision.

How can you spot these people? Look at their backgrounds. They have set the tone for how they’ve worked at other jobs. They’ve run something on their own or launched some kind of project.

You want someone who’s capable of building something from scratch and seeing it through. Finding these people frees the rest of your team to work more and manage less.

Communication

In these times of ‘trouble’ it is important that both our ON and OFF Line ‘message’ is Bold, Clear and Concise, but with the off line world contracting and the online world ever expanding it is all the more important that our online message (Our Digital Voice) is delivered in a way that will not only ‘Impress’ the people that we are attempting to engage with but also that that message can be spread far and wide –at no, or indeed a minimal cost – and perhaps more important that our results can be easily accessed, accurately measured, easily quantified and continually improved and up-dated using the latest Communication techniques
In the field of ‘Communication’ InternetSense can be approached to speak at Schools, Colleges, Business Networking Groups and Associations on:-
‘Training, Communication & Innovation’
‘Digital Photography for Business & Pleasure’
‘Social Media & Social Networking’
‘E Commerce’
And
‘Smart Networking -How to market yourself effectively both ON and OFF line’
InternetSense will consider both paid and unpaid speaking engagements

Innovation

Don’t just Dream it –Do it!’ those of you who know Philip (Director InternetSense) know that essentially he is a Dreamer, an idealist, a man who is the World’s greatest advocate of the old mantra ‘work smarter rather than harder!’Recently something changed, Philip realised that it was almost as easy to ‘Dream Away’ an idea as it was to dream it up in the first place. So things had to change. Philip imposed some very strict rules to his Innovative thinking:-
1. Don’t just dream it –write it down, first on paper and later in a scrapbook
2. Tell Someone and or Show Someone –Don’t keep it to yourself
3. Apply for a Grant, Loan or Competition. This will help you both clearly visualise your idea or concept. It will let someone else be the judge of is this a good idea –yes/no/maybe
4. It will help you get a grip on your product or service and help you crystalise a clear path to market
5. And Finally…..Go For It! Stand up and be Counted!

Testimonial from 'IPA'

IPA

Helen Nilen, IPA Regional co-ordinator for Northern Ireland, organised the first IPA event of 2010 on Wednesday 10th February at Weavers Court Business Park, Belfast.

Speaker Philip Wilson from ‘InternetSense’, a company focused on the Northern Ireland IT industry for over 10 years, spoke on ‘Social Media & Social Networking - 'It is all about you & me!'. He gave an excellent presentation on internet developments that have led to the ‘real time web’ and the widespread use of social networking for both personal pleasure and business matters.

Guests heard about the importance of good practice and correct etiquette; how to experiment personally before using social networking professionally and the need for good planning to identify the relevant audience. As key points to remember, Philip highlighted the value of being transparent and honest, not being afraid of sharing information, contributing in a meaningful way and being proactive in building business relationships.  

Helen Nilen commented, “Our attendees varied from those who had no experience of social networking through to one person who ‘tweets’ every day on behalf of their employer! We all appreciated Philip’s presentation and could really see the potential of using social networking for business.” She continued, “Philip was most complimentary about PAs and Administrators, describing us as the people who got things done!”

We look forward to welcoming IPA members to our next event, which will be announced soon in The Professional Administrator.

Philip Wilson is a Director of ‘InternetSense’, a company which has been part of the IT Industry in Northern Ireland for some 10 years, primarily with 1-2-1 and group coaching for some 300+ individuals as well as small and medium sized enterprises.

Five Ways to boost Traffic to -Planet Me!

Here are five ways to keep your networking muscles in tip-top shape so your personal brand is always top of mind:

1) Share often. An easy and quick way to keep contacts abreast of what you're doing and to spur interaction and conversation is to update your Facebook and/or LinkedIn status regularly. By staying silent, you keep the door closed to communication, but by sharing something-a success, a goal, a wish, an observation-you provide regular opportunities for contacts to engage with you.

2) Pay attention. Browse the online profiles of those with whom you want to build a closer connection and find a reason to interact. Make a comment, offer help, wish them luck, whatever is appropriate based on what they're posting. Those light touches over time can strengthen bonds more effectively than going for one big bang interaction.

3) Add routine. Join a professional organization or networking group to put some structure and frequency to your networking. It's in your calendar, like a standing appointment with your personal trainer. You know that the last Tuesday evening of the month, or the third Friday at lunch, for example, is your monthly meeting. You don't have to think about it.

4) Think small. For your contacts who aren't social media junkies, sometimes the only way to get visibility and stay on their radar screens is face-to-face. While big events can help you circulate with multiple contacts in one sitting, getting together for a one-on-one coffee can often do more to deepen relationships with the key people in your network.

5) Test market. Describing what you do can sometimes get stale. Either you get so used to giving the same elevator pitch that it sounds rote, or contacts have heard it so often that they've tuned out. In your networking interactions, test new ways of saying who you are and what you do. You just might find a better combination that more easily generates the response you want.
