Lots of things going on - Outbound Link Love

I am a bit behind in letting you know some of the cool things happening with some of my blogging/writing colleagues who write about stuff that might interest you. So in effort to get a wee bit more caught up, here is a new list of things to check out. I regard these folks/sites highly and recommend you check their stuff out:

SOBCon 08 - The Chicago based conference has a new website up with all the details for this year's conference. Terry Starbucker, among others, will be speaking and that's reason enough in my book to go.

My pal Phil Gerbyshak celebrates the 3rd anniversary of his blog, Make it Great! Congratulations, Phil, you do such great work.

My friend Jodee from Fargo has a new version of her book, The 100% Factor coming out - very cool. Check it out here and put her blog in your aggregator. Watch for announcements about this summer's Bigger Small Talk Conference that Jodee organizes. Fargo is a great town and I loved going through there on my motorcycle trip.

Michael Stallard has come out with a new Change This manifesto called, The Connection Culture: A New Source of Competitive Advantage. You can download it for free.

The fine folks at blogged rated Management Craft recently. They gave it an 8.3 out of 10, which they say is "Ggrreeaat!" Check out the other business blog and their ratings. This is a great place to find new blogs to read.

The month of march will be a bit light for me as I am coming down the stretch on the deadline for my latest book, Hip and Sage. Thanks to everyone who has been chatting with me and sharing your ideas and perspectives. Here is an updated version of my definitions for Sageness and Hipness. Tell me what you think!

Our sageness: Our particular strengths, characteristics, goals and priorities, and experiences - manifested as drive, skills, judgment, and knowledge - that have been honed, polished, carved, and seasoned through the years. Our sageness is unique and it may or may not be visible to others or in use contributing to the world

Our hipness: Our ability to communicate, relate, collaborate, and connect with younger generations. In business, our hipness determines how effectively we work with, inspire, and influence younger workers. Hip entrepreneurs are able to enroll, engage, and excite younger customers and business partners.
