		<description><![CDATA[LinkedIn is an increasingly popular and powerful professional tool. Like many other professionals, I enjoy connecting with others via LinkedIn, and find it a remarkably useful tool for making new contacts, remaining in contact and conducting talent and firm research of all types. However, a pet peeve of mine is the generic invitations that I frequently receive from people I do and don’t know.

		<description><![CDATA[One of the best lessons that I've learned from working on about two million fix-it and improvement projects with my Dad is to match the right tool to the job at hand.  This is particularly true in searching for a job, which can be one of the more vexing projects for many people.

Fortunately, there are a number of interesting new power tools available in the form of social networking platforms, to help today's job seeker.  However, unlike the tools in the picture, there are few guidelines on how and where to to use these tools to good effect.<div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style " addthis:url='http://artpetty.com/2009/08/12/twitter-and-social-networking-job-search-power-tools-or-time-killers/' addthis:title='Twitter and Social Networking: Job Search Power Tools or Time Killers?

		<description><![CDATA[Call me old-fashioned, but just because so many of us are interacting from behind a screen doesn’t mean that the rules of etiquette and common courtesy have been suspended. In case you didn’t get the meme on the importance of professional courtesy in an on-line world, this is it.

I am increasingly fascinated and horrified by the way people conduct themselves through sites like Linkedin and for networking introductions provided via e-mail. <div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style " addthis:url='http://artpetty.com/2009/04/29/a-rant-on-social-networking-etiquette-or-when-did-rude-become-acceptable-online/' addthis:title='A Rant on Social Networking Etiquette or, When did Rude Become Acceptable OnLine?

		<description><![CDATA[I suspect that we are all engaging with former colleagues, friends and family members that have recently been furloughed from the corporate world. A few that I have spoken with are struggling to adapt to the new reality and are finding themselves floundering as they struggle to replace the comfortable routine of getting up and going somewhere with wandering around the house wondering what to do and where to start.  

Here are some ideas that I’ve either learned myself over time or have gained from others that have mastered the around of working and managing themselves without the services and security of a mother ship.  I would love to hear your suggestions as well<div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style " addthis:url='http://artpetty.com/2009/02/11/seven-survival-tips-for-the-newly-independent/' addthis:title='Seven Survival Tips for the Newly Independent ' ><a href="//addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&#38;username=xa-4d2b47597ad291fb" class="addthis_button_compact">Share</a><span class="addthis_separator">&#124;</span><a class="addthis_button_preferred_1"></a><a class="addthis_button_preferred_2"></a><a class="addthis_button_preferred_3"></a><a class="addthis_button_preferred_4"></a></div>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As the economy continues to crumble around us, one of the common themes that I am hearing from people at all levels and in all forms of positions and professions is that they “don’t know what to do.”  Much like the weather outside, people are frozen in place.  Fear will do that, and it’s definitely not healthy.  Here’s my randomly generated and in no specific order list of 10 ideas for anyone seeking to thaw-out and start moving forward in spite of the sub-zero headwinds.<div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style " addthis:url='http://artpetty.com/2009/01/15/feeling-the-economic-deep-freeze-ten-actions-that-you-can-take-to-thaw-out-and-combat-your-blues/' addthis:title='Feeling the Economic Deep Freeze?
