It's April - so it must be Spring, SCIP and AIIP

April is a peak time for information professionals. There are two major industry events - and AWARE managing partner - Arthur Weiss - can be seen at both.

The first is the Association of Independent Information Professionals (AIIP) annual conference - taking place this year in sunny Minneapolis. The second is the Society of Competitive Intelligence Professional's conference - a week later, in New York.

Both are major events on the calendar - and major networking opportunities. Networking is a crucial skill for info-pros - and it pays off. A few years ago I helped out a colleague and she has now put me in touch with WS Radio who just interviewed me on my role as a CI professional. You can listen to the broadcast now: Radio Interview with WSRadio.

What better proof of the power of networking than being heard on a network :-) I hope that you enjoy listening to the show as much as I enjoyed participating in it.
