LinkedIn Networking Groups: A great way to stay connected!

Those who follow my writing here at freightdawg.com know that I am a big believer in the power of social networking using LinkedIn Network. Its a great site for connecting with logistics and supply chain professionals as well as others in related industries such as banking, government, consulting, executive search and operations management.   Unlike other social networks, like Facebook or MySpace, LinkedIn really caters to business professionals.

I have really come to like the ability within LinkedIn to form sub-groups of people with particular interests.  I belong to several of these groups on topics ranging from air freight to the Supply Chain Network.  The talent in these collections of people is amazing.

I recently set up a new group for colleagues and alumni of DHL and DPWN related companies called the "DHL Networking Group" to in order to keep track of my own business contacts and resources. Anyone interested in joining that group may do so by visiting this web address.  Note that the group is open only to DPWN related colleagues and alumni.

NOTE: Reference to DHL is not an endorsement of this LinkedIn group by DHL nor DPWN, only that it is a common employer of present and former staff.  Participation is voluntary and independent of any DHL/DPWN official activities, funding or endorsements.
