I’ve been doing a lot of LinkedIn training for executives and sales teams this year. A common theme that is coming up, especially as we go back to meeting in person, is the idea of a Peer Advisory Group. People are hungry for human interaction, but they’re taking a hard look at the activities they were filling their time with before the pandemic.
Many people got a taste of balance in their life… able to stay home with family and pets while still being productive with their work. So as we go back to the grind that involves travel time to meetings and tons of events to pick and choose from, the question people are asking themselves is, “Will this be a valuable use of my time?”
But not everyone has access to a peer advisory group. I’ve been active in three peer advisory groups for the past 15 years (plus). They have been integral to my success in business and life.
I’ve made videos previously about The Power of Peer Advisory Groups and Signing In and Processing Issues. But I realized that I never talked about starting a Peer Advisory Group. So my video this week is about starting your own peer advisory group. Let me know in the comments if you have any questions on how to start your own group, and I will get back to you!
A Peer Advisory Group might be just the thing you need to take your professional career to the next level. It’s not a quick solution, but a long term solution. I encourage you to watch my 5 minute video and ask yourself if having access to a brain trust of peers is missing in your world. Thanks for watching!
We have worked with Blue Gurus since 2010, and in that time they've become trusted colleagues and friends.
"One thing becomes very clear soon after you meet Jason. He genuinely cares about you and helping your business. We have worked with Blue Gurus for more than six years and in that time they have become trusted colleagues and friends. Including our new LaunchKC website, they have guided us through four new Wordpress websites for our various initiatives at the Downtown Council.
In addition, they have taught us the importance of having a strong presence on social media and have helped us grow our audience on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. Blue Gurus always makes this process very fun and affordable. I have not worked with a better team in my ten years at the Downtown, I am honored to call them business partners and friends."
