In the new world of work, your reputation is the only accepted currency. Whether you're looking to move up the corporate ladder at your current organization, find a position at another company, make a major career change, or start your own enterprise, you'll no longer be hunting for your next position. Instead, opportunities will come to you.


Colleagues, hiring managers, clients, and recruiters will use Google and their social and professional networks to find out about you and reach you.
To thrive in this new environment, you need to identify your personal assets and clearly communicate your unique value promise. That's why I jumped at the chance to speak with William Arruda, co-author of the book Career Distinction, at the MarketingProfs conference in Chicago, where he gave a keynote speech.
