Blogger Story: Andy Hayler

From London, Andy Hayler's story is about the influence a blogger can have on a stranger's career. Just goes to show you never know who is reading your work or how your words can change a life.

Blogger Story Teller: Andy Hayler, Andy One Enterprisesoft

Corporate blogs can be dismal affairs, as no one wants to read a (sometime not very subtly disguised) piece of PR for a company.  Hence I have tried with my blog just to talk about real projects I have been involved with, stories from the industry and reaction to software industry events. 

The most telling and unexpected feedback I have had was from a senior consultant who recently joined my company.  He was a very smart guy and had multiple job offers, but he emailed me to say that “the reason I joined Kalido was your blog”. I don’t think we have yet begun to fully understand the power of blogs.
