A New Blog Dedicated to Young Professionals

by Jim Ware

[This is a cross-post from my Future of Work blog. I'm sure readers here will also be interested in the new blog "Newly Corporate."]

I’ve just found a new multi-author blog dedicated to Gen Y, Millennials, or whatever young professionals are calling themselves these days.

It’s called “Newly Corporate: Work, life and the pursuit of happiness for the young professional.”

One of its authors, Brendan Henak, wrote me recently and asked me to take a look. When I finally found a few moments on a Sunday afternoon (sadly, it’s just about the only time these days I can do stuff like that) I liked what I saw.

While the blog is really aimed at those young professionals, and offers them help and advice on coping with the corporate world, it’s also a useful place for any of us older farts to gain new insights into what makes those young-uns tick.

Actually, when I review the interesting and well-written posts there I find lots of good ideas that are applicable to any of us trying to survive the world of work these days. But, to the authors’ credit, it’s written in language and a style that is highly appropriate for their primary audience.

But no matter how old you are, I encourage you to go take a look. Bookmark it, or subscribe to the RSS feed. You won’t regret it.

Jim,

Thank you for the compliments on Newly Corporate. It is pleasing to know we can appeal not only to people newer to the workforce, but also those who are more experienced and looking for knowledge.
