An old (1995) list of skills for instructional designers, very focused on the corporate training side of the field. I wonder why there's so little here about working with others; communication skills are kind of tacked on the end of the list as an afterthought. Communicating and collaborating with SMEs is such a big part of instructional design that I'm surprised that's never mentioned here.

Garr Reynolds (Presentation Zen) slideshow summarizing the 6 career tips from Daniel Pink's book, The Adventures of Johnny Bunko. Reynolds also gives his own ideas on each of the points. I love the point about doing things that are you believe are intrinsically valuable even if they don't lead you on an obvious career path; we should learn what we're passionate about.

Upload your own pictures from Flickr or use the designer options provided to print mini-business cards, stickers, postcards, etc. I think this would be very cool to have some cards the next time I go to a conference.

Looking at jobs and work environments in terms of how much learning is happening. If you aren't learning in your job and haven't been for a while, it's probably time to change your environment or change your job.

Communication for virtual teams, including ideas for dealing with conflict and keeping morale up. I agree with the idea of debriefing on long projects regularly rather than just at the end of a project; you can adapt and correct course more easily, plus everyone stays more connected.

Blurring the lines between work, life, and learning. I don't think most of us are completely at this boundary-less balance yet, but working from home certainly does change where my boundaries are.

Update on Cammy Bean's survey results. Only about a quarter of IDs have an advanced degree; very few of those who don't have ever been denied work due to the lack of a degree. Interesting comments from Brent Schlenker about how degrees may open doors but don't necessarily teach much useful for skills needed today.

Fortune Magazine article that cites a study showing a direct correlation between income and a willingness to apologize. So how do we create organizational cultures where people feel open to admit mistakes and apologize (and hopefully learn from those mistakes)?
