Post number 1.5

Ok. So here is blog post number 1.5. I’m hesitant to call it my second post, because it probably should have been my first. But it is 6 years late anyway (did even blogs exist back then?), so half a post probably doesn’t make much difference.

Several years ago students started telling me I should blog all the (unsolicited) career advice I give class. Just like Penelope, I didn’t listen to them. I had always planned to write a book, but blogging? Now that’s a commitment.

If I had listened to my students, I would now be writing post number 1500, instead of number 1.5. I would have a much wider audience, enough material for a book, and most importantly, I would have stayed in much better touch with those students who have slipped away over the years.

I didn’t get married until I was in my thirties, and I don’t have any tattoos, but I wouldn’t say I’m afraid of commitment. I just respect it. And at this point, my commitment to this blog seems a little vague, at least in terms of the path this blog will take. In class, I can tailor my unsolicited advice to the business undergraduate, MBA, or executive MBA audience. Hopefully, I can find a common thread in this blog that will appeal to all three levels. Nudge me if you think I haven’t found that fine line yet.

So let the conversation begin.
