Good comments, Alessandra. I for one will be happy to see more well thought out, well planned blogs. The exhaustion and nausea is something you are not alone with - I have spoken to a lot of people who have said the same thing.

as a matter of fact, if you spend your time recording small bits of your reflections and reading more or less relevant fragments of each other's lives, you end up losing your focus. It's not easy to find the right balance.. I like the freshness and immediacy of twitter, but at the same time I regret spending so much time on my and others people status update, and sometimes I feel sort of nauseated by this continuous stream of small pieces of life.. and I think I too need to take a rest, and concentrate, and think deeper.

Thanks for sharing this. when doing online reputation management, monitoring is most important as you need to know what is being said online about you or your company.

I have never gotten an interest figuring this out but as it turned out it makes a really good sense and helps me to understand web 2.0 a little bit more on the inside. Great post!

Re: Women Can’t Network? I Beg Your Pardon????

It is a very strange idea that women should be worse in networking. In the real estate branch the reputation of a company can go down through one unhappy woman. Women kind of gossip and network a lot. If a woman thinks a company is dodgy she often goes to twitter and it goes around ruining the reputation of a company.

Re: The Currency of Attention

You make a good point, Chris, about lists. I live by lists! iWorks Numbers is my best friend. But on a serious note, even with lists, scheduling and the best will, it can be difficult to maintain attention.

Having taken on the MD role for two other companies other than my own, I have found that my attention is more precious than ever. I am now spending most of my time doing administration and have to set aside a day a week and a little time each morning for social media. As such, it takes a LOT to grab my attention away from my trusted sources. I am sure I am not the only person in this position, but it means that anyone getting out with one purpose of building an audience should take pause for thought about how they are going to capture them in their already overloaded lives.

Re: The Currency of Attention

Chris Hall — Wed, 19 May 2010 12:09:05 -0000

It's a valid point. I think this is where lists come in and can help manage your time better and at different parts of the day.

I spend as much of my working day in work areas of social media. If i spent all day watching the stream then nothing would happen. None of us can keep up with all the blog posts, facebook pages, twitter streams etc.

we need to create focus and all find our place in this social landscape. As more and more join then it get's more cramped but everyone will either find their place or community - or even leave because it isn't for them.

Whole-heartedly agree with you Babs.

I was the first questioner to Maria Eagle at the Business Link in London event, raising 2 points. The first being that I disagreed with her statement about women being bad networkers, to which the audience agreed. Her reply was that maybe it was just men in politics who were better at networking. What a strange way to say that women in politics are not good networkers! I know plenty of women in politics who would strongly disagree with that one, or they should!!

My second point was to ask where and how funding to business women was available, since ME had stated it was readily available to all business women. Whilst ME wasn't able to directly answer that question, I quickly received a text from a BLL contact saying via their Aspire project.

Moving on....

Re: How NOT to interact with your Customers – NestleFAIL

houndog — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 12:24:47 -0000

Nestle certainly are having a few bad days over this little social media shambles, but what about their PR gurus?

The likes of JWT, Ogilvy and Mather, Publicis Group and Nielsen Buzzmetrics have all happily worked on the Nestle account in the face of mounting evidence that the company has no interest in a sustainable business model.

Isn't it about time that they were asked to explain what role they see themselves performing for the company?

Dickie Armour — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 13:46:08 -0000

Nancy,

Nice post and very true about not getting swept away in the conversations; activities and number of followers etc.

I certainly spent over a year getting used to how the conversations flow around the different social netowrking sites and especially Twitter.
It was only when I began using the Search function properly instead of getting swept along in the deluge from my Twitter Home Feed, that I began to see some real results.

Just this month I discovered a customer complaining who actually posted he was leaving after 10 years! But thanks to connecting with him on Twitter I saved his account and he's just placed a further order. This equates to around £900.00 of annual business; not huge but if he stays for another 10 years then that's £9,000.00 plus any further new business. A good example of how using Twitter can add to the bottom line.

Nice response Nancy - I've commented on the @women_unlimited response as well as @MissNaomiJane 's blog. Here's my take:

It seems that headline of the (original) article has confused the issue from the offset.

Are we talking about the aggressive tactics of corporate ladder climbing or women’s inability to network? The headline suggests the latter however the content covers networking in the broader sense. In my humble opinion the article merges two very separate issues into one.

Sadly we can’t argue the stats that so few women reach the top of the world’s largest corporations, but that is a debate on the women and the glass ceiling and not on networking. I don’t profess to be an expert in this area, however as this comment thread highlights, it is a sensitive issue and there is still much work to be done in terms of finding the right balance.

My definition of networking however is creating connections with people to build long term relationships for mutual benefit and success. There is no argument whatsoever that woman are naturally excellent at this, in the social and business sense. Women that have never even heard of the term networking do it brilliantly without even realising it.

We may not (as a general rule) be as good at blowing our own trumpets as our male counterparts but we make up for it by being fantastic at raising each others profiles, providing support and inspiration (and being open to it) and collaborating. This is a clear example of how as women, we can be outstandingly successful by leveraging our strengths rather than trying to emulate the competitive techniques that work better for men.

I agree that some women are not comfortable in the testosterone driven male dominated networking world. That said, neither are some men. I don’t lack confidence but I do need to be in the right environment. There are a number of different networking platforms – informal, structured, social both online and offline. Everybody will have a different style of networking that suits their personality and regardless of your gender; one of the important factors for networking success is to attend the right networking events.

Ideally this should be with a group of likeminded people, where you feel comfortable and you can be yourself. When we are authentic it is easy and fun to build relationships that have integrity and therefore long term value. Make sure you have a well thought out strategy, follow through with disciplined execution and have a genuine desire to help others.

And yes networking can also be about asking for what you want from others, but first you have to earn the right to ask for it by proving your ability to deliver.

Most importantly – networking should be fun. If you aren’t enjoying your networking activities AND getting fantastic results then talk to me ;)

Happy networking! @gina_romero

@lizcable Thank you so much for your comment and I am really sorry that you were taken so much out of context. I dislike how the media cherry pick and twist what people say to suit their own angle and this is clear evidence of that. You're right, social media works because of relationships and women are particularly good at relationships, so this article is just bizarre.

I will look forward to reading your own copy in the future - at least it will be a more accurate picture!

@babsaul Thanks also for commenting and I wish the battle were over but I don't believe it is. Fortunately there are women out there like yourself who juggle work, family and networking and achieve all of them brilliantly.
