Building the right relationships is essential to success. Last night, Qualcomm partners shared invaluable advice on how to do just that. Big thanks to Hannah Stewart, MBV, Robert Nowakowski, Francis Pearce, & Jason Huschle for providing their insights on their military transitions and how critical networking is within their organization. A couple of key takeaways for the San Diego FourBlock cohort: - Follow-up matters. Stay engaged with the people in your circle and check-in on the new connections that you've made. You never know what opportunities might open up. - Reach out strategically to individuals who align with your goals. Utilize tools like LinkedIn and professional networking events to get in front of the right people. - Conduct informational interviews for valuable insights and to open doors. There's no such thing as too many coffee chats with the people that you want to get in front of. Ask thoughtful questions and get your needs met. Shout out to my fellow instructor Sandra for putting together another successful week with the team!

Kendrick vs Drake: Who's winning so far? We ran a poll via Beyond Education (BE)'s newsletter. Kendrick in the lead by a whopping 36 votes to 9 🤧 Sidenote: One of the reasons our emails have an above-average open rate of 60% and click-through rate of 8% is because we don't solely discuss corporate jobs and dry career advice 🥱 We nurture candidates with engaging content and subtly incorporate opportunities from our employer partners so it doesn't feel like a robotic hard sale. This has resulted in 96% ethnically diverse hires for our clients 🤝 Anyways who are you guys picking? Drake or Kendrick 👀

Claire Hughes Johnson's book seems like a valuable resource for founders and CEOs of high-growth tech companies. I appreciate her emphasis on a human-centric approach to management and company building. It's true that companies are ultimately collections of people, and neglecting their needs can hinder success. However, I wonder how this approach can be balanced with the demands and pressures of the constantly evolving tech industry. How can leaders prioritize the needs of individuals while also driving innovation and growth? I believe this is an important discussion to have, as it touches on the intersection of employee well-being and business performance. What are your thoughts on this? How have you seen the human-centric approach implemented effectively in the tech industry?
