It's noisy out there and if you want to stand out you need to take action in order to make an impact. Many people sit back and believe that things will just work out. If you want to be heard and recognized, choose the sphere of influence that you wish to impact and follow the steps in Dorie's book "Stand Out". Together, we can help each other climb the ladder of success. Dorie urges us to create an opportunity within a local network or to facilitate a "meet-up" as a way to build bonds between each other, so that when looking for a leg up we can have people in our corner.
