How to network effectively
through the recovery
By JOHN EARL CARROLL
President, Unlimited Performance, Inc.
Special to CharlestonCurrents.com
JULY
14, 2010 – As the economy locally and nationally moves through
the paces of recovery, businesses search for cost-effective ways
to grow sales and profits. Networking presents one such viable option
for Charleston area businesses.

Watch
the most successful and effective networkers in Charleston or elsewhere
and you’re bound to take away valuable tips you can apply immediately
in your own work. Here are seven traits that top networkers have
in common:
- They
understand what networking is. A good working definition of
networking is “the process of connecting and staying connected
with others”. Simply put, this is a business term for making
and keeping friends. When you can connect and you’re able
to stay in touch with others, they are in your network and you
are in theirs. That connection opens up other possibilities.
- They
feel good about themselves. High self-esteem is critical to
one’s networking effectiveness. If you’re comfortable
in your own skin, others will sense that and be more comfortable
around you. When you like the person you’re alone with, you
have a good level of self-esteem.
- They
have a heart for the well-being of others. Networking isn’t
about how much I can get from others and how quickly I can get
it. Instead, networking is a giving with the expectation of return
on the investment. With a generous heart, top networkers are looking
out first for others and helping them along the way. They are
confident in the knowledge that such kindness comes back in other
ways at different times.
- They
have positive, reasonable expectations. Unrealistic expectations
of results from networking are the single biggest reason why people
give up easily on this form of business development. One may attend
and judge an event’s success by whether he or she gets a
new sale before exiting the hour-long meeting. Networking is a
process; done well, as with most things in life, it requires time,
energy and effort.
- They
apply the “Indirect Effect.” The best networkers
conduct themselves in ways that make others want to be around
them and work with and through them. In their relationships with
others, they understand that the best way to get respect is to
give it; the best way to get attention is to pay attention to
others; and the best way to make a good impression is to be impressed
by others.
- They
connect without selling. When top networkers reach out to
others, it’s almost always to add value. Sometimes that is
done in a selling mode. Done well, there’s a variety of reasons
for the contact. You can forward an article containing timely,
relevant information just to let a friend or associate know that
you’re thinking of her or him. That’s connecting without
selling, and it sends a clear message that you care about the
person more than you care about whether you’re getting a
sale every single time you’re in touch.
- They
communicate easily through several channels. Different people
prefer to communicate in different ways at different times, and
the best networkers keep this clearly in mind. They can connect
equally effectively through e-mail, phone, snail mail or texting,
and they know when to use each medium for each person they want
to contact.
You
can make networking more effective personally and professionally
by incorporating these practices. As you commit them to habit, you’ll
notice the positive difference in your results.

Art opens
special doors for local student at White House
By ANN THRASH, editor
JULY
14, 2010 – A lot of grown-ups (including this one) have to
turn to Google to find out who an artist named Jacob Lawrence is.
But for one bright fifth-grader at Mt. Zion Elementary, knowing
who Lawrence was – and what’s more, recognizing one of
his paintings out of the blue – opened a few doors for the
student and her friends at the White House.
Thrash |
We
got word of this neat story from the folks at the Gibbes Museum
of Art. The Gibbes implements a program at Mt. Zion called ”Art
to Go” which enhances the arts currriculum at the Title 1 school
on Johns Island. Rebecca Sailor, the associate curator of education
at the Gibbes, says museum teaching artist Martha Criscuolo spent
time in Mt. Zion art classes once a week duing the past school year,
working with the kids not only on art projects, but on art history
as well. As part of the effort, the kids had several opportunities
to visit the Gibbes during the course of the year, and they even
had the thrill of having their own works of art displayed in the
welcome area of the museum for a few days.
On
a recent end-of-the-school-year trip to Washington, D.C., the fifth-grade
class from Mt. Zion made quite an impression on the White House
staff. We hear that the students were so well-behaved and polite
during a tour of the White House’s new vegetable garden that
the pastry chef who was leading the tour decided to let the kids
have a quick look inside the White House itself.
“Accident,”
a 1946 painting by American artist Jacob Lawrence, is part
of the collection at the Gibbes Museum of Art (although it’s
not currently on display). During a recent White House visit,
a local fifth-grader at Mt. Zion Elementary recognized a painting
there as being a Lawrence work, and the tour guide was so
impressed that he showed the student and her classmates a
few extra rooms at the first family’s home as a reward.

What
happened inside the mansion is even better. One student surprised
the tour guide by recognizing a painting as a Jacob Lawrence. “The
guide couldn't believe that the children possessed such knowledge
and took them to see two more rooms,” a school official said
in an e-mail to the Gibbes. She attributed the perk of getting some
extra time at the White House to Criscuolo, the Gibbes’ teaching
artist, and her work to expose the kids to art history.
With
this being summer, we weren’t able to get in touch with the
right folks at the school to find out more details, and we didn’t
want to publish the student’s name without her family’s
OK, so that part of the story remains untold for now. But it’s
neat to see the way that art can touch a child and leave a lingering
impression on her – and open some unforgettable doors for her
and those around her as well.
Lawrence,
the artist whose painting the child recognized, lived from 1917
to 2000 and was one of the first artists to use Modernist depictions
of blacks in his works. He has one work at the White House –
“The Builders,” a 1947
painting (tempera on board, 20 inches x 24 inches) that the George
W. Bush administration acquired for the White House’s permanent
collection in 2007. You can see the painting and read more about
it here.
The
Gibbes has one Lawrence work in its collection – “Accident,”
a gouache (opaque watercolors mixed with a preparation of gum) on
board. It was painted in 1946, just a year before Lawrence painted
“The Builders,” and you can see the similarities between
the two paintings. We’re not sure if the Mt. Zion student had
seen “The Builders” in an art-history program at the Gibbes
or if she just recognized the style, but either way, it’s quite
an achievement for a fifth-grader, and it’s the kind of story
that makes us smile.

After 5 networks its way into Charleston

JULY
14 , 2010 -- Phil
Bevans, who runs the GSA Technology Council in Greenville, has brought
his successful “Tech After 5” networking event to Charleston.
The first one, held June 28, attracted some 50 tech types of varying
stripes, including some from Columbia and Greenville. Tech After
5 is scheduled for the fourth Wednesday of every month through October
at the Southend Brewery in downtown Charleston. The next one will
be July 28. Read

Lawsuit claims
Apple iPhone a monopoly
Some
argue that the lockup agreement with the bumbling AT&T network
is a monopoly – here’s
the latest on the lawsuit from Wired.
Brains over brawn:
Reset Economy is good for women
Could
it be? So says an article in the latest
issue of the Atlantic: “In the wreckage of the Great Recession…three-quarters
of the 8 million jobs lost were lost by men. The worst-hit industries
were overwhelmingly male and deeply identified with macho: construction,
manufacturing, high finance.”
Women
are now the majority in the U.S. workforce, the clear majority in
undergraduate studies, half of all medical students and new CPAs…so
where are the men?

RiverDogs
featured in new ESPN advertising campaign
ESPN
is featuring the Charleston RiverDogs in a new brand campaign that
was launched earlier this week during the State Farm Home Run Derby,
a precursor to the All-Star Game. The campaign, dubbed “It’s
Not Crazy, It’s Sports,” celebrates the idiosyncrasies
and distinctive stories that make sports fans so passionate.
 |
The
first spot in the campaign was filmed at Joe Riley Park in early
June. Titled “Sign Language,” it takes an intimate look
at the complexity, art and intensity of signing in baseball. Also
featured in the spot are the Hickory Crawdads, who were playing
the RiverDogs at the time the campaign was filmed.
“We wanted to capture the distinct energy of minor league baseball,
and the RiverDogs have a reputation as an especially engaging and
entertaining team,” said Chris Brush, vice president of ESPN
Marketing. “With the strong support they have in Charleston,
teams like the RiverDogs help perpetuate the kind of fandom that
we’re highlighting in this campaign. Both teams were also extremely
accommodating and hospitable during a very long day of shooting.”
Dave Echols, general manager of the RiverDogs, said the organization
was thrilled to have been chosen for the ads. “It was a lot
of fun to participate in this commercial and we hope that all who
see it enjoy it as much as we will,” he said. The RiverDogs
are an underwriting partner of CharlestonCurrents.com.
In coming weeks, ESPN will debut a second spot called “Miles
and Miles” that looks back at the Apollo 14 mission where astronauts
Edgar Mitchell and Alan Shepard took a few golf swings on the surface
of the moon. Other spots are scheduled in the months ahead.
Local athletes heading

According
to a press release from South Carolina Special Olympics, the local
competitors are: in aquatics, Tim McBride, Charleston, age
46; in bowling, Jamie Dangerfield, Charleston, 44; in tennis, Darryl
Malone, Charleston, 25, and Casea Stevers, Charleston, 24; and in

Restaurant
sponsoring Christmas cocktail contest
Charleston
restaurant Circa 1886 is conducting a contest asking local residents
to come up with a Charleston Christmas cocktail. The contest is
the third in a series of summertime culinary contests sponsored
by the AAA Four-Diamond, Forbes Four Star restaurant; others asked
contestants to turn Charleston into an ice cream flavor and a Christmas
cookie. The results were Seersucker Ice Cream (Charleston Chew candy,
blueberries, peanuts and vanilla ice cream) and a cookie shaped
like a Palmetto tree with pecans, rice flour and sesame seeds topped
with a sweet tea glaze.
Cocktail
enthusiasts can submit their suggested ingredients and name for
the cocktail online at http://www.Circa1886.com
through July 31. They also can submit a video with their suggestion
tagged CharlestonChristmasCocktail on YouTube. Collins, along with
restaurant manager Mark Severs and head bartender Brooks Alger,
will narrow the entries to three finalists. A panel of judges will
select the winner in early August at an event at Circa 1886.
The winning beverage will be served at the restaurant during December,
and the winner will receive a complimentary dinner for four at Circa
1886, excluding alcohol and gratuity. To see videos of past contests

ENCYCLOPEDIA
Truck
farming
Truck
farming is the production of annual fruit and vegetable crops to
be sold fresh. Truck farming began after the Civil War as cities
grew and the spread of railroads made transport faster and more
efficient. In 1868 William Geraty and Frank Towles began farming
on Yonges and Wadmalaw Islands, where the soil and long growing
season were ideal for truck crops.
In
1889 farmers in Charleston, Colleton, Beaufort, Horry, and Berkeley
Counties planted 2,103 acres of produce for market. By 1900 the
acreage had more than doubled, to 4,928 acres. They grew cabbages,
Irish potatoes, asparagus, turnips, string beans, lettuce, and cabbage
plants. The area around Meggett in Charleston County became the
world leader in the production of cabbages and potatoes.
Truck
farming helped fill an agricultural niche in the lowcountry as the
commercial production of rice ended. A 1907 report on agriculture
in South Carolina described the Sea Islands as crisscrossed with
rail lines, rail spurs, packing sheds, and icehouses to service
the industry: “at every mile, and in some instances at a less
distance, are station platforms filled with barrels, crates and
baskets of vegetables for shipping.” On Yonges Island, in an
area known as Barrelville, barrels were made to supply the farmers’
demands. Several hundred rail cars a day shipped out of Meggett,
headed for eastern and western markets.
While
it was a boon to the Sea Islands, truck farming was not yet a major
factor in South Carolina agriculture. The 1920s and 1930s were disastrous
for South Carolina agriculture as a whole. In 1932, at the urging
of the Agricultural Society of South Carolina, Clemson College opened
the South Carolina Truck Experiment Station (renamed the Coastal
Research and Education Center in the mid-1980s) to solve problems
affecting truck crops. By then some large truck farmers farmed from
a distance, not living on the farms and using African Americans
from South Carolina and Florida as laborers.
By
the late 1970s truck farming had come into its own, and as the twenty-first
century dawned, truck crops were an important contributor to South
Carolina agriculture, valued at over $60 million. While many Sea
Islands may appear to be wilderness from the highway, on the back
roads the cotton and rice fields have given way to fields of tomatoes,
melons, and other truck crops, which are harvested by migrant and
resident Mexican labor.

LAGNAIPPE
Taksi
driver
For
those of you who have visited New Orleans, you'll know that "lagnaippe"
means something provided to you that's "a little extra"
-- a small delight that may accompany a meal or a 13th doughnut
for a dozen bought, for example.
Publisher
Andy Brack is traveling this week in Turkey on a cultural exchange
and thought you'd enjoy this photographic lagnaippe of a taxi driver
with attitude as he waits for a fare. For context, a Turkish police
officer with a submachine gun patrolled the streets about 25 feet
away. The two men seemed oblivious to each other. More next week
on this interesting country.
