A note from Patsi –
Thanks to all of you who read my blog at www.CoachEzines.com. I recently put in some extra finger tapping time and upped the number of blog posts about ezines and writing. As a result, traffic to my blog has doubled, and several other blogs gave me a mention, further boosting readership.
If you haven’t been over there, please visit and read some of my writing tips. I have dedicated this blog to delivering information and tips for writing great ezines, blogs and other web content.
As you know, the best way to market your services and products on the Internet is with content. You establish yourself as a credible expert by writing articles and getting them into directories. You write a newsletter, a blog, and other web pages. Then there are press releases, sales letters, landing pages and squeeze pages. This isn’t what you learned in English 101. See the article in this weeks issue of Savvy eBiz Tips: http://www.blogsquad.biz/savvy-ebiz-tips/
Writing content as a marketing vehicle on the Web is different from the way we were taught to write way back in the dark ages of the typewriter. And even if you were brought up with computers, they still don’t teach how to write for the Web in school. It’s evolving too rapidly.

Featured Article for December: Human Relationships at Work: The Untapped Frontier
Categories: Communications, Emotional Intelligence, Managing
“Today we are faced with the pre-eminent fact that, if civilization is to survive, we must cultivate the science of human relationships.”
—Franklin Delano Roosevelt, 1945
Leaders and managers can study, train and be coached. But if they fail to work on their interpersonal skills, they will not succeed when given more complex responsibilities. The ability to relate to and connect with others helps confer influence and leadership success.
Until recently, there has been little focus on what goes on within the relationship between two people in an organization. Almost all professional development programs focus on the individual: what you can do to improve yourself. Thousands of people explore leadership and management skills each year with an emphasis on improving their personal abilities. Very few have participated in programs to develop interpersonal skills.
Obviously, pursuing personal growth is worthwhile. Now, however, experts suggest that executives who develop their interpersonal skills will finely hone their ability to lead and influence.
The best managers in the world are not only experts in systems, processes and technical competencies. They are also proficient at managing their employees, personal strengths and preferences. Thus, they increase employee engagement and productivity. Unfortunately, most people’s experience with bosses falls short of these goals.
