Your Reputation Means The Most In The Business World

A Farewell Message: "What Works"

By Edward G. Drennan

As a business mentor for senior university students, I would like to share my final posting for these young professionals.

It certainly was a pleasure to be a part of this discussion forum and being a guest in your student community!

As my final general posting, I wanted to write a message for consideration as you approach graduation and your careers:

I believe that many have noticed that "even during these challenging times", there are still some that are not convinced about having a spirit of cooperation and giving with others.

I know, there have been many books written about being tough in business ... writing "one-sided" agreements and that the only real measure of success is the profits generated in the near term ... yes, we have all been taught to "squeeze" out the best deal ... It's "dog eat dog" after all!

Let's reflect, however, on the following:

When we carefully analyze the final results, we do have a solid history showing what happens when we do not act in a spirit of cooperation ... that "things eventually fall apart"! Yes, there can be some temporary success, but in time, the fruits fail to be borne on a shaky foundation.

What else? Let's continue:
