Taking the Work Out of Networking
Networking has garnered a reputation as a sort of necessary evil in the modern business world. Some do relish the opportunity to boldly work the room, introduce themselves to strangers, and find common career ground, but for many others, the experience is often awkward, or even terrifying.The common networking advice for introverts are variations on the theme of overcoming or “fixing” their quiet tendencies. But our latest guest, Karen Wickre, is a self-described introvert who has worked in Silicon Valley for 30 years. In her recent book, Taking the Work Out of Networking: Your Guide to Making and Keeping Great Connections, she shows you how to embrace your true nature to create sustainable connections that can be called upon for you to get, and give, career assistance, advice, introductions, and lasting connections.Karen’s “embrace your quiet side” approach is for anyone who finds themselves shying away from traditional networking activities, or for those who would rather be curled up with a good book on a Friday night than out at a party. With compelling arguments and creative strategies, this new way to network is perfect not only for introverts, but for anyone who wants for a less conventional approach to get ahead in today’s job market.

Invested with Charles Schwab
This week we have a financial icon in-studio as Charles Schwab pays us a visit. Yes, that Charles Schwab, the founder of The Charles Schwab Corporation.In his just released personal memoir, Invested: Changing Forever the Way Americans Invest, Schwab describes his passion to have Main Street participate in the growing economy as investors and owners, not only earners. Schwab opens up about the challenges he faced while starting his fledgling company in the 1970s. A year into his grand experiment in discounted stock trading, he carried a six-figure debt and a pocketful of personal loans. As it turned out, customers flocked to Schwab, leaving his small team scrambling with scarce resources and no road map to manage the company’s growth.He recounts the company’s game-changing sale to Bank of America, and how, in the end, the merger almost doomed his organization. We learn about the clever and timely leveraged buyout he crafted to regain independence.A remarkable story of a company succeeding by challenging norms and conventions through decades of change, Invested also offers unique insights and lifelong principles for readers, the values that Schwab has lived and worked by that have made him one of the most successful entrepreneurs of our time.

The Art of Persuasion
In the post-fact, deeply divided world we live in, true persuasion is rare. Engaging with people holding differing opinions is rarer still. But for progress to take place, persuasion must happen. Whether it's convincing an employer you are right for the job, a customer that your product is the best, or your closed-minded uncle that good people can disagree, it takes the art, and science, of persuasion to move forward.So, how do you change someone's mind, or at least advance the conversation, when everyone is entrenched in their own points of view? Our latest guest, communication expert Lee Hartley Carter, has spent nearly twenty years advising and helping the world's most well-known companies do just that.Her first book, Persuasion: Convincing Others When Facts Don't Seem to Matter, covers all the secrets to persuading anyone, at work and in life.Filled with researched insights into how we make up, and change, our minds, as well as colorful real-world examples and actionable recommendations, Persuasion will help you hone your message and craft your narrative in order to get heard and get results.Have a money question?
