What are the most effective ways to deliver outcomes that meet diverse stakeholder needs?
Let's identify that internal stakeholders are represented by employees in various organizational roles, with diverse skills, talents, and abilities to navigate systems, technologies, and decision-making; shareholders, and board members. External stakeholders are customers, vendors, investors, supply chains, and governments. Each external stakeholder role requires the appropriate internal stakeholders with the right skills to build successful business relationships. A firm must have the talent diversity and skills to drive business success and remain competitive. Students in my class have been applying business assessment tools like SWOT and VRIO to understand how companies must function in a competitive environment and stay profitable.

You’re struggling to create engaging e-learning content. What are the top-rated tools that can help you?
Even though I have a database of course learnings collected over the past 20 years, I find myself experimenting with Artificial Intelligence tools. I hope to increase my basic usage of AI to become more comfortable and somewhat more proficient. As an instructor in higher ed, I integrate my previously used business courses' content and templates as appropriate for the classes. Facilitating via TEAMS adds an element of creativity tools for exploring flexible options for students and me to learn.

How can you help a recent graduate find the right job?
Sharing wisdom, knowledge, and career advice with recent graduates or someone who is considering a change in careers still sends tickles up my spine! The steps and counsel presented here are dutifully noted and each response adds value and insight from the respective contributor. In an earlier career path in the HR/career transition profession, I coached and trained others to find jobs incorporating all the necessary components like resume building, self-marketing, skills and personality assessments, and preparing for interviews, etc. However, in my own networking, I was cultivating job openings, talking to my contacts for leads to pass on to the candidates. When that pairing occurred - job seeker with employer, I rejoiced.

How can feedback improve your job search?
Passing Knowledge on to the Next Generation Just this morning I had an opportunity to share my small business consulting journey with the son of a friend. She wanted her son to get a real perspective of how to achieve some level of success building a small practice in leadership, DEIA, and community engagement. He wanted some feedback on what he tried doing and what else he should do. As I described over 30 years of doing stuff building a reputation through hard work, networking, and being a change agent in the areas of public education (running for school board), facilitating boardroom discussions, DEIA, and even creating a popular course on the LinkedIn platform, I realized how important it will always be to pass down knowledge.
