Most of us sell our labor for wages, which provides us with an income to support our spending, saving, and investing. One way to maximize the value of your labor is to improve your ability to sell yourself to employers. Education is one way to positively influence the value of your labor; networking -- building social capital -- is another.

1) Think about your job search or career development quest. Who are the individuals or groups that you can think of that might be able to help you?

2) How would you go about growing your network to include these people?

3) Use this week's discussion forum to network with your classmates. Consider asking for critiques and ideas for clarifying or improving your LinkedIn profile (part of this week's Money Management Activity) or post your resume and cover letter for feedback.
