BBC NEWS | Business | Who is buying up Britain? Posted: 08 Aug 2008 08:17 AM CDT From the page: "The credit crunch may have put the brakes on the UK economy, but a fast-growing but relatively unknown financial institution may just come to the rescue - the sovereign wealth fund.
Typically owned and run by countries in the Middle and Far East, these funds have huge reserves of cash and they want to invest it. In 2006, Liverpool football club was taken over by two American sports tycoons. Fans hoped it would once again be able to challenge clubs like Chelsea, which has benefited hugely from wealthy foreign ownership, for the Premier League title. "

Kick Start your career with Linkedin Posted: 08 Aug 2008 06:14 AM CDT I read the article on the Computer Weekly "Execs use social networking to climb career ladder" by Rebacca Thompson.
This is quite true. You register your profile on linkedin and start networking with your colleagues. You make yourself visible to your network. Similarly you will instantly know about any change in the profile of your network. Linkedin competes with Ryze, XING, Plaxo, Yahoo! Kickstart and, the social networking site Facebook, among others. However, LinkedIn is centred on helping its users to capitalise on their business contacts, and features searching capabilities that allow users to find jobs, contacts and answers to business queries. I am fan of the job site monster since the quality of jobs as well as head-hunters are quite good. If you are looking for jobs outside your company then it would be a good idea to login to monster every day. You will notice head-hunters calling you up. The other tip to move internally in your organisation is to check out resignations in your company. Just give a call to the line manager of the person who has resigned and ask him/her whether that role is available. The line manager will be pleased to take action quickly, if you are right person for the job. So networking internally or externally helps.

The Power of Understanding and Solving Problems Posted: 07 Aug 2008 11:37 AM CDT From the page: "Many have made money and built reputations by solving problems. Doctors cure the suffering of illness, psychiatrists help heal the troubled mind, lawyers protect names from being tarnished, consultants offer marketing advice and a dazzling array of products help to remove any inconvenience you might possibly encounter in your daily life.
Many people are solving problems. Theyâ€re all offering solutions to people who need them. Some are giving them away for free. Others are selling them for a price. When problem and solution is a perfect fit, a relationship of trust is built between two parties. If this helps me now, it might help me again. If this solves my problem, it might solve my friendâ€s problem too."
