- 12. • Ask for honest peer analysis and thirdparty proofs of your work. • Include these recommendations and analysis in your LinkedIn profile and resume. John Roland, @jaroland74
- 13. • Both honest peer analysis and 3rd party proofs report that what you are saying is not just your opinion of yourself, but someone else’s as well. • It truly affirms and gives validity to what you are stating. John Roland, @jaroland74
- 15. How have you helped others? • State your accomplishments in terms of how you have helped others. • If you have clients, list the ways they have benefitted from working with you. • If you volunteer, be proactive in supporting your favorite non-profits. • When your team wins, give credit to the other team members. John Roland, @jaroland74
- 16. Give credit where credit is due • Always give credit to your sources. • As you succeed, bring as many others along with you as you can. • Never give yourself sole credit when it was a team achievement. John Roland, @jaroland74
- 17. Help others & share freely John Roland, @jaroland74
- 18. Add value to others • The best articles, blog posts, comments and discussion topics serve to help other people. • The wrong way to get a new client is to say, "I'm the best, hire me." John Roland, @jaroland74
