Top Reasons to Start Networking with People Outside of Your Industry

HR & Management

Don’t discount other industry contacts and professionals from your networking efforts. Typically, most people consider only those who share their own profession when looking to build relationships and extend horizons. However, there could be significant advantages to networking outside of traditional boundaries. Many companies rely on their networks for business referrals. For example, a company requiring a new contractor will consider the opinion of trade contacts in deciding whether to hire that particular contractor. Ariella Coombs of Careerealism offers reasons for networking outside of your industry. For example, a reference from a professional in any industry is valuable in terms of job search. Maintain your contacts and you may gain references from professionals who are outside of your specific field, but are nonetheless impressed by your character and work ethic. If you only network with those similar to you, that may not lead to new business. However, if you are connecting with individuals from different backgrounds, this may bring you customers or business leads. For example, a coder who networks with digital game manufacturers and discusses different products may find projects or work.   The premise of networking is to build connections. Some of these may require your services and some may not. Some connections may simply refer their connections to you. The best way to build networks is to help others. By referring a contact, the same may be done in return. However, build social capital before you request a favor and don’t ask for services that would normally require payment, such as financial advice.   Professionals from other industries may provide interesting and useful perspectives. For example,... read more

Simplify IT to Help Save Your Bottom Line

General IT

IT News contributor, Dan Muse, counter-intuitively espouses the simplification of IT systems and processes to improve company profits. This, at a time when cloud technology, mobile devices, and remote access are creating complex business decisions for companies unsure of IT future directions. Muse suggests that old infrastructure and established legacy systems and applications do not blend well with newer, remote devices and the social networking environment. A study by International Data Corporation (IDC), and sponsored by Oracle, included nine companies from various industry sectors found that simpler IT systems save considerable financial resources. The report found that IT complexity is compounded by mergers and acquisitions, organization decentralization, business demands, legacy systems, the rapid pace of IT change, conflicting systems and regulations, and mobile and remote device infrastructure and support. Companies often require complex IT infrastructure and resources to enter the competitive IT market. Ironically, as iphones, ipads, websites, and applications become simpler and more user-friendly, the systems required to support these devices are becoming more complex. Companies must assess existing applications, systems, and data centers and determine if they are really necessary, are up-to-date, and whether any can be consolidated. Additionally, functions that do not fit with new operating systems should be outsourced. IDC has created a Simplification Road Map to guide companies in simplifying IT infrastructure. The road map suggests the following: • Support from company leadership is required because IT simplification requires significant investment and culture change. Training may be required throughout an organization. • Avoid building new layers of integration or applications. Adopt an innovative spirit that does not include old infrastructure and systems. • Employ... read more

New FDA/EU Agreement Creates a More Efficient and Safer Drug Supply

ClinLab Staffing

The media hub, Eye for Pharma, has reported on the new relaxed rules concerning the export of drugs to the European Union (EU). Additional documentation is no longer required by exporting pharma companies because the US has been granted “listed” country status by the European Commission. International cooperation is required to ensure that consumers are protected around the world from dangerous medicines. The task is complex. The US Food and Drug Administration has traditionally been an agency that focuses on domestic food and drug policies, but, according to the government agency, this situation is changing. The agency now considers that it is becoming more proactive and involved in global public health issues, which benefits every nation. The FDA, an agency within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, protects public health by overseeing the safety and effectiveness of drugs and other pharma products such as medical equipment. The FDA filed a listing request that would result in US manufacturing processes of drugs being considered equal to those of the EU. Following an audit of the FDA’s practices of ingredient imports, the new status was approved. Active pharmaceutical ingredients, or APIs, are subject to European regulations and the imports must meet guidelines. The policies aim to ensure the safety of drugs imported from other countries such as the US. Before the approval of listed status, US pharma companies were required to submit FDA documents assuring that the products were manufactured according to the Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) of the EU. The new ruling is advantageous to the EU because imported drugs can be disseminated more efficiently and at a... read more
